The Injuries are absurd. That is now two of our center backs, two of our left backs and one of our right backs.

l hate to say it but this is the biggest crisis Arsene Wenger has ever faced in his managerial reign at Arsenal and l have my doubts whether they can get out of it..

watching Arsenal...they want too much time on the ball...they need to pass it quicker..I suspect they don't because they lost faith in the receiving player keeping it

The exit of wenger draws nearer. Whether you Arsenal fans keep defending him or not its another year without a trophy now.

7 long years at the last count and no sign of one coming.

Its just shocking at watching arsenal play. What is going wrong lately no new players in really is it wenger or the board not wanting to spend money

absolutely shocking performances this week

The board will not fire Wenger, even if we don't finish 4th. Losing away at Sunderland is no where near the diaster that occurred mid-week, especially given the injury crisis we have in defence. For whatever reason Wenger doesn't have the resources to buy, when you have to turn a profit each year. Hopefully we will see some purchases over the summer and a clear out of some of the poorer players.

Sums up football fans that people are calling for his head given the resources the squad has.

Problem is if we get rid of wenger i still bet that the board won't spend any real money on new players that a new manager would want to get.
My thinking is that the board made a mistake of going for kroenke instead of the Russians

But remember Arsene Wenger has made some poor buys in the last couple of years and has to accept some responsibility for that but l am not saying get rid of him but he does however have to admit in the last couple of years that he has got things seriously wrong with his transfer strategy.

No they didn't. The Russian wanted to do a Chelsea or City. I would rather have a sustained club that doesn't win trophies often than a risky one which has a period of cleaning up.

Getting rid of Wenger would be madness. Who else can do a better job given the resources they have .

He has made some good ones as well. This year Arteta, Chamberlain and Mertesacker haven't been bad. Gervinho might well be included in that as well. Last year Koscielny was given the usual criticisms from the 'experts' and from the fair-weather Arsenal fans who never saw him play in the stadium and get their opinions from the press but he has been good.

Arsenal are a Poor poor side...a lot of the players don't deserve to be collecting their pay packet...at least not with Arsenal

Arteta doesn't seem to pass positively, as with a lot of current crop...they rely on the backward pass too much

l like Gervinho and Chamberlain but l have to disagree on Mertesacker and Arteta as in my mind they were panic buys and thus so far have been unconvincing in my humble opinion.

Resources?

He spent £53 million in the summer!

So who else can do a better job with less than Wenger?

Pardew
Redknapp

Both flying and both combined spent less than Wenger in the summer...

Tottenham Hotspur spent a fraction of that in the summer and are ahead of you in better form and looking way better in every single way.
