The Arsenal FC-Related News & Developments for 2016/2017

A lot of ifs and buts.....at the end of the day we were not good enough this season

Just remember Gooners this time 12 months ago Chelsea were in 10th position, today they are lifting the EPL trophy. No condition is permanent...

Ummmm..remind us what did Chelsea do after finishing 10TH......

Changed their manager and spent more than Arsenal.

It is Chelsea's 2nd title in 3 years under different managers so that tells you they have the players.

Spent more how? What players did Conte buy? Let's compare.

Besides the fact that Wenger refused to spend is HIS fault. You can't stubbornly refuse to upgrade your underperforming team then turn around and claim you failed because the other team spent more.

Look at this football moron how much did Conte spend? Do you think Kante, Batshuayi and David Luis were loan players mugu stick to abusing Arsene

Like Globs pointed out did Wenger himself not buy players? Xhaka, Perez and Mustafi, were they free? You fool, I said let's compare.

By the way Luiz was a buy back. Chelsea offset that money from the unpaid fee PSG agreed. Wengoat had the exact same opportunity to buy Cesc back from Barcelona but guess what he did? So please shut it you daft fowl.

You're the same clueless buffoon that was insulting Klopp. Last season you were popping off because Wenger finished above Liverpool even though Klopp took over from Rodgers midseason. I told you to compare their records from the time Klopp took over or compare them over the course of a full season. Well, well, well. In two seasons, Klopp has I believe 3 wins and a draw against Wenger, and has finished above him. Let's not even close their head to head record when he was at Dortmund.

You should really learn to shut up cos you're just an emotional bloviating ignoramus.

[Siddonlook11]

The season is done ..leave the ifs and buts behind and look forward to FA cup final abeg..support your..OUR team

[Gooner1]

Let's get one thing straight Arsenal don't deserve champions league football, they haven't competed for years in it, this year they were smashed 10-2 on aggregate, that was a national embarrasment! Teams from Switzerland & Lithuania yes but not a team from the world's richest league! This club as got it all London location 60,000 seater all paid for a rumoured £200 million transfer chest and still they just about stay in the league conversation...joke!

Sharrap you dog!!! You asked who did he buy? I just answered it fool. Now you're blabbering like a rabid Ekuke I've told you to shut your mouth but like a dog you keep barking and making yourself look stupid. And yeah your hero Klopp with no European competition finished ahead of Arsenal by a point ok go have an orgasm .. ode

[tolahs]

S/O to the guys - they to a man played for that shirt today - they found a way to make a 1 man deficit seem like 2 extra men.

2 things that affected this season the most:
(i) For most of it, we lacked tactical flexibility
(ii) Our most consistent element was lack of intensity
------------------------------
In Gabriel & Kos - we've lost players ripe for an FA cup Final - we really do have big issues.
The gaffer is bent on bringing Ox back as wingback but it'll be dumb to bench Hector.
Hope Alexis got some pop for Wembley - too many minutes played & miles run - hope we don''t pay for that.

I think he plays Ox AND Bells ... Gibbs is out So He starts Bells, Monreal and Holding at the back..

If he plays Hector @rightwingback, where does he play Ox?
How long's Gibbs out for - we might need to play Monreal as a CB with Holding & Mustafi.
If Gibbs is out, does he then play Ox as a LeftWB??
We've guys though w/o fatigue in their legs - Iwobi,Lucas - hope they play a part.
We know Xhaka & Ozil are part of that central MF - we might need a defensive cover but instead of Ramsey i'll play Ox cos he gives that athletic players whose pace creates problems for Konte.

[tolahs]

Wenger: "We were a force until December but we dropped off. One day I will give the reasons for that."
Gotta ask why tease us with that - we can't wait.
-------------------
Wenger on this summer: "We want to keep the team together & find one or two more players who strengthen the team. But we don't need a lot."

Sure we don't need more than 2??
-------------------
Wenger on Arsenal: "I have said 'no' to every club in the world to stay here with very limited financial resources."

We appreciate that gaffer but where does the buck stop or do we stay forever indebted to the point of lacking any accountability
or expectation to compete for the league title?? Just asking boss.

I keep saying you have a comprehension problem. Do I have to keep breaking things down to retard level just for your benefit?

I asked who Conte bought so we could compare. How is that a problem? Answer my question. Who did he buy so we can compare price. He had a chance to get Luiz back after Chelsea sold him and guess what he did. Now he's a champ. Wenger had the same opportunity with Cesc and he allowed him go to Chelsea to win another title.

You're a dolt for bringing up Wenger's shameless logic. You had no problem insulting Klopp for finishing below Wenger last season (even though he beat Wenger head to head) despite taking over Liverpool midseason but nite you're trying to pull this boolshit excuse. Did you not know Liverpool wasn't competing in Europe at the start of the season? What did Wenger do in Europe? Got smashed 10-2. Now that your he's failed domestically as well failed you're using competing in Europe as excuse. Mschew. Well, assuming United beat Ajax, Arsenal will be the only top EPL club not in the champions league. This means Wenger should easily win the EPL.

Dude, just shut it abeg. Discussing his with you is an exercise in silliness.

Sharrap you didn't ask shyt for any of your stupid reasons dummy ... you are such a nincompoop.

You have no clue of what you keep pontificating about and when called out for your stupidity, you still continue to double down with your revisionist drivel ... STFU and keep it moving ... your continued bleating and revisionist drivel has become pathetic ... You don't know football so just be quiet ..

Your insults on Wenger are entertaining though

Keep yapping like a parrot. All I know is Europe or not Klopp smashed Wenger home and away, had yet to lose to him since her joined Liverpool, but to mention he also great him as coach of Dortmund, now he's finished above Wenger. Shall we also compare their buys? Klopp bought Mane, Wenger bought Xhaka. That sums up everything. Or you wanna blame that on Europe as well? Any sensible person would just shut their mouth in this situation after Wenger made them look foolish but not you.

Mscheww!!!

two options one as you describe but the likely will be Bells as one of the back three, not wingback.

Its suicide to play slow mets, + holding + Monreal vs Choski..but he may do that to get physicality and defend high balls to Diego...

They've mainly played a highline with this back 3 system & got away with not really deploying any DMs - with Chelsea though, you've Hazard & Pedro playing off Costa - that's lethal - Mertesacker cannot play - you've to drop deeper for starters, we don't help out quick enough plus Costa will have a field day.
Mustafi comes in but someone must tell him to stop going to ground like he does -
(by the way - isn't there a way we can appeal the red?(hoping))
You can't play Hector as a CB - not a good enough defender - lacks the physicality - use his pace @wingback.
AW's 2 selections at centre-mid will be a huge call - Xhaka & whom - Ramsey slows the pace of ball movement & easily loses possession but AW likes dude.

[tolahs]

I've screamed to High Heavens for the exit of AW - stay or not, we must get with the program in a far more committed fashion.
When i look at how close we came to making the top 4 - giving my strong believe at some pt this season that we'll finish behind Everton - one looks at the so called tactical gaffer-nerds in that top 2 & have to conclude they ain't all that.

Conte came from managing a big national team in a continental competition - he has been spectacular & his attn to detail, tactical gimmicks to cover his team's weaknesses means he basically blown the competition out of the water. Hands down.
JM - bought big, knows the league - won a trophy & might win another but to say he's been found wanting ain't reaching.
Pep - 1st season back but he has to go along way to prove Barca & Bayern weren't opportunistic
Pochettino - It's one thing to say he has a young squad but how does Spudites explain the ease with which a young Monaco side bounced them?

Ease? Ignoring that Monaco are a very good side that required Juventus to knock them out. The matches werent easy for Monaco.

[Coach]

T'is best to leave the other houses out of discussion when one's roof is leaking. After 38 games, the best Wenger could deliver was 5th and a bigger double figure deficit than last season. Some might say there was no more than a point in it, such slender margins have decided heavyweight titles and Olympic golds. One point or twenty, it was still failure no less. A successful FA Cup campaign will place it's ever absorbent Band Aid over the gaping wound and all will be forgetten till the body exsanguinates. It hasn't been good for some time and is only going to get worse. That being said, two years.

[bepanda]

Robbie is just losing it. WTF is he talking about? "Expecting to win the league every year" ... we haven't won it in 12+ years Robbie. Arsenal asks fans to pay the highest $$$ of any teams in EPL and we can't demand a coach to go for EPL title?
And the idea that no coach will come to Arsenal because we are in the Europa League is just plain ignorant. Conte joins Chelsea ... which league were they in? NONE. JM joined Man U. Playing Euro League. Pogba left Juventus (CL) to play Euro League. What is wrong with there people?
