Well, an announcement will be soon on Wenger's decision. If the rumours are true, then a lot of people here will be very disappointed.

Fair enough...

We have been here before though, what we have done today is relinquish control....we are chasing now. But we have the experience, we will need all that experience now.

What AW would give for Ozil and Cazorla to be fit tomorrow?! :( :(

Xhaka and Ramshyt not good enough for you ????
Xhaka is good enough, Ramsey isn't....

I have little pity for AW in these instances he caused some of his own problems.
I agree re, Xhaka.
Same here. Arsene is Wenger's biggest problem. His loyalty to players, a great virtue in different circumstances, has come back to hunt him. Some of us complained when he shipped out players like Joel Campbell and kept Theo and Ox. See where that got us now. This team is just full of lili-livered players who goes missing when the going get's tough.

If he stays, he must wield the big sticks. He needs to make a choice between Theo, OX and Ramsey. 2 of these must simply be sold even to the lowest bidder. Coq must go. Same too Giroud. Honestly i am at a loss here. There are just so many who need to be shipped out that i am scared if he leaves. This team needs seriously rebuilding. And there comes the problem with the "Wenger must go" crowd.

If AW leaves, where will we get at least $200m to rebuild this team. A new coach coming in will request for this amount if not more if we serious about competing. There lies the dilemma we've found ourselves.

But if AW stays, he needs to bring Keown on board immediately.
Watching us yesterday, played really flat. We really misses the type of player that breaks the lines, like Rocisky, Nasri, Hleb etc. Not saying Campbell is in the callibre of the players I mentioned above but he would have been useful yesterday. Wenger is now reduced to relying on the likes of Oxlade and Ramsey, he has major problems.

Ramsey physical decline has been alarming. I look at the numbers and he has been way short of the sort of numbers he used to put up every game when he was at his best. I have waited expecting him to return to his best but I am now gradually beginning to admit the injuries may have taken its toll and he will never be the same player again. I am with you, Wenger need to shed more injury prone players and I see Ramsey and the Ox being let go. I do not see Theo because he has delivered the goals this season.

Also, Wenger being unable to find a partner for Xhaka has been a major problem this season. But right now, the players are seriously lacking belief and confidence. It is a real worry and does not bode well for the rest of the season.

It is 50/50, nobody knows. But the rumours from not so reliable sources like the Bleacher report state he is signing on. If they are correct, many here will be very disappointed.

we no gree :taunt: :taunt: :taunt: #WEXIT.

To be honest, the man shot himself in the foot. And he had PLENTY of time to get it right. Yes, there were lean years, BUT those did not force him to be playing grandfather to junk players. EVERY transfer season, there were players available at bargain prices. But no, the man had to tie Arsenals' fate to players like Coq, Ramsey, Ox, Walcott, etc.

Forget long tori, short of it was that RvP had the balls to demand that the team strengthen like an ambitious team, or he should be sold to a contender. AW sold him to Man U....

He has no ambition any more,he wanted to make money for himself and those criminals running the club built a stadium and he has done that,so right now is to milk the system and lie as if he plan to win major trophies.

What most of these clowns do not realise is their negativity which is not helping results is not helping their own cause either, there is a better chance of AW leaving if Arsenal results improve and we finish in the top 4. AW is not the sort of man who will want to leave Arsenal (His life's work for 20 years) in the current state we are in.
To God be the glory
