This is exactly why Claude is First of His Name, Protector of The Realm and The Voice of Reason lol
AMEN Charlie, AMEN!!!!!!
All hail Claude a true gooner!
Claude fo' life!!!
I love Claude, he seems like he's genuinely upset all week about Arsenal.
Obviously Claude is right. He wants Arsenal to be successful where as Ty doesn't.
Spot on boss
completely agree! i mean i know where Ty is coming from, we do need to be positive as much as we can.. but we aren't challenging anymore and our tactics are so out of place it's ridiculous.. I personally blame Wenger for the position we're in right now, but i don't want him out.. my opinion
Totally agree with you mate.
TY wants us to be successful or else he wouldn't be so positive
Alfie Pettitt Yeah, but there's a difference between being positive and realistic, or being naive and deluded. Ty is clearly deluded and naive Lol.
Ty my man you can just tell his whole mental is a bit off. Claude is a nutter but he does have a point and I feel he embodies the fans a hell of a lot more. If Ny other coach didn't win a trophy for 9 years I'm sure you'd hear about it a lot more just saying arsenal as a whole just needs to shape up really over it now . I'm almost hesitant and embarrassed to say I go for arsenal
If you're happy with the mediocrity that Wenger is bringing into the club mate then YOU can fuck off. Wenger has won us 1 trophy in 9 years and people like you still kiss his ass. A TRUE Arsenal fan would be willing to question the appalling things that are happening at the club atm and it IS embarrassing.
Listen mate I'm arsenal through and through I've been supporting This club since I was a kid through thick and thin. I cried like a baby when we lost CL final. I've stood up for arsenal with mates strangers and rival fans. It's gone so far now it's killing me, I said I felt ALMOST embarrassed when somone starts giving me shit about how poor arsenal have been over the past decade I have to unload all these shitty excuses I have to be on the defensive about a club I love. I didn't say I was embarrassed and even if I was though it's how the club has been run 3-3 an anderlecht is an embarrassment Swansea embarrassing look at last year against top 4 clubs embarrassment champions league performances over the past 10 years woeful perennial 4th place finishes embarrassing our defence yep you guessed it our signings tactics ticket prices the fact we have to include the community shield on our cv is a jokE . If arsenal was my mrs I would be embarrassed doesn't mean I shouldn't be with her. How the fuck am I making foreign fans look bad ? Have you spent over 5000 grand to go see an arsenal game I doubt iT. What your not allowed to go for arsenal cause your not from North London . t. Get off it. If that was the case arsenal would be a much different club today. The prem lives off foreign investment and support. Grow up take a step back look at the whole situation. Arsenal are declining every year it hurts the true fans more, fair weather fans wouldn't even be watching this video or evoke emotion for such a frustrating organisation. If your looking for fair weather fans go a little west and give Chelsea a visit. I know what fans your talking about but believe me when arsenal are pathetic over the past 10 years it filters out the fair weather fans. Who else would stand behind a club get up at 4 am to catch games fly for 13 hours . You don't have the slightest clue.
Judging by the O2 cap, it shows his mind is still stuck in 2004. Hahaha
NAJIB AM your name makes me want to stop supporting Arsenal I’ve had enough off it
TY needs to wake up, not laying any blame on wenger and just blaming the refs. Claude is right every team gets good and bad calls, using them as an excuse is baseless and clutching at straws
TY please let Claude speak.
Ty has good attitude but the guy is deluded to be honest, Claude says it like it is
I like Claude but Ty's an annoying little joke of a man
John Cooper they are both fantastic personalities
Claude you've got my support. You're not alone in this. #wakeupwenger
It's actually a disgrace that TY and Robbie can be positive about whats going on at Arsenal at the moment and shows how deluded some of our fans really are. We are never going to win the PL or CL with wenger as the manager anymore
I like Claude cuz he clearly bleeds Arsenal. youd think his health is linked to Arsenal performances or something. Having said that, his hearts in the right place but he just doesnt know how to articulate himself so well.
Ty on the other hand thinks hes positive but I would say hes delusional and though i think hes in the right place, i think hes the kind of fan that holds this club back. We have the potential to dominate domestically and in europe, just not under Wenger and some Arsenal fans just cant come to terms with that.
It's Wenger's fault. He has the biggest influence in the club. It's his fault that he let Vermaelen go without signing back up. If you had doubts about signing someone else, then why let him go in the first place? Also, every year Arsenal are outmuscled and concede goals from headers and set pieces. Wenger has to work on his defensive training more. If he is, he's doing a horrible job so far. I agree Wenger doesn't get most of the blame, but he gets most of it. And if there's one team that can complain about injuries its United. 39 injuries this season.
'I agree Wenger doesn't get most of the blame, but he gets most of it'
Wut.
I'm sorry, I mean't Wenger shouldn't get all the blame, but most of it.
Claude is not negative so don't label him as that. Claude is REALISTIC and down to earth unlike Ty. Ty is not positive either, he seems to be watching a different Arsenal than the one we watch. It is Wenger's fault 100% that a squad like Arsenal does not have the necessary strength in depth given its known injury record. #Goonertillidie
1. TY has no culture of discussion whatsoever. Typical for a zealot who happens to be wrong.
2. With respect to Claude, he really does not even start touching the subject. Starting the season with such an inadequate squad gave the team a licence to fail and it shows. Wenger does not want to have a competitive team, simply because he would then be judged against the top managers and fail miserably.
3. Robbie gives WAY too much time to TY when compared. The thing is that he does not really say anything.
Claude was spot on about how our lack of squad depth is the cause of our downfall. I agree that its not that we only lost 2 games, our performance this whole season so far has been subpar. We should have kept Jenko and loaned out Bellerin. We should have replaced Vermaelen and got a CDM. It is Wenger's fault that we're in this predicament because of our squad depth. Injuries are just bad luck mostly, however, the only way to offset our injuries (god knows we have them every season) would have been to have a full quality squad. People complain that our players are not showing enough passion, which i agree but then again that is what a good manager is paid to do- Bring the best out in players! Do i think Wenger should go? - yes but not now. We need to find a good replacement first, we don't want to pull a United.
Hey look, it's Deji in disguise
Wenger don't give a tuck, he's earned over £75 million pound working at arsenal so far
Ty is like Wenger. Delusional and stuck in the past.
The fact that Montero was skinning Chambers for 80 minutes creating chance after chance and wenger didnt make a change shows to me that wenger has lost it. That on top of playing players out of position, poor transfers, lack of ambition and flawed training techniques resulting in highest injuries in prem is why he must go.
Chelsea have got Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Azpilicueta and Luis. After that they’ve got Ake who has made 4 appearances in all competitions, and Zouma who has made 1 Premier League appearance. They sold a centre-back in the summer, and didn’t replace him. They also let Ashley Cole leave. People simply perceive that their squad has balance because they’re winning and haven’t had any injuries.
Selling Vermaelen has turned out to be a brilliant decision because he looks to be in danger of being completely finished.
What I don’t agree with is loaning Jenkinson out. If Arsenal had Debuchy, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Jenkinson, Chambers and Monreal they would actually have more depth than Chelsea. Whether their first-choice defence would be as good is another matter, but in terms of depth they would definitely be better off.
RB options: Ivanovic, Azpilicueta
CB: Terry, Cahill, Zouma, Ivanovic, Ake
LB: Azpilicueta, Luis.
Lots of good combinations there and reliable depth
finally someone with some common sense, i have been saying this for ages. Releasing Jenkinson is a mistake ONLY because Wenger seems very unwilling to trust Bellerin and Hayden. Hector Bellerin has a much higher ceiling than Jenkinson and is much better than Jenkinson when he was 19.
i agree with the Jenkinson thing but our issue is player for player they have a better back line with maybe the fact id have Koss over Terry right now. Then again JT's leadership is what we are missing at the back not to mention they're organisation.
IMO it's down to management. Jenkinson wouldn't have gotten a look in or made a difference if he stayed, he's getting game time know to improve when it is his time. But Chambers is a CB who we could use for know till Kos returns and Bellerin till Debuchy returns but he just won't play them.
Zouma came back from loan to replace him
There’s a thin looking Claude
More of these videos please hahaha! I really enjoy it!
Ty is right, come on Arsene is the reason Arsenal are such a huge club today, that claude has such lofty expectations from Arsenal. Arsene has made mistakes, who doesn't , but he has, and continues to do stuff that is right. It's been very unlucky for Arsenal this season, hopefully things look up soon.
*****
we can still attract the likes of Ozil and Sanchez. Before Wenger came such players were beyond Arsenal's reach. Sanchez said himself that Wenger was a huge reason for him coming to Arsenal. Even Messi said working under Wenger is on his bucket list. We can't draw players with money, because Chelsea, City and United have more money. Am not saying we can't compete with them, but we have to slowly build teams like Dortmund, and Athletico to challenge, and who better to bring through youngsters than La professor himself. Am sure we will sort it out. ozil to come back, can't wait to see him combine with sanchez.
What are the expectations for Arsenal? To finish 4th every year and win an FA Cup occasionally? Sorry mate but if he was at any other club he would get sacked. Yes Wenger has enjoyed previous success, but that was 10 years ago...
Diegoal Costa
If you think about it Arsenal play, in a league where three teams have significantly better financial resources than them. Feeling that we are entitled to anything better than fourth is delusional. Fourth is far better than what Arsenal's average league position was over the years, before Wenger came in. In the end of the day against clubs who can pay 300,000 pounds a week to players, we are always the underdogs.
Listen dude i`m 24 years old and Arsene is all i know. I am a fan since maybe 2001/02 season and i`m as some of the older fans like to call us spoiled cuz of the success in the glory years of Henry,Vieira,Pires,Lljungberg,Bergkamp but that was 10 years ago and i am still here still following Arsenal even after the 8-2 vs man unt and the games vs chelsea and pool last season ...And i`m following not for the wins of trophies but for the beautiful football that Arsenal plays,the quick technical football with lots of attacking and not so much defending. But in the last few years Arsenal is nowhere near that,we have some of the quickest players in the league and yet we never use counter attack,we just pass the ball in an endless cycle until someone make a mistake and thats it ...and there is only one man in Arsenal and thats Arsene Wenger who can be blamed for that. Over the years he makes the same mistakes over and over again and i think its time someone to step in and let him go ... The man has done great things for Arsenal and he sighnt Henry so i will always love him for that but he lost his quality and thats obvious for everyone .. he is just not in the same league as the other top managers in the league!
anirban das Think about it this way: look at the Wenger era and pretend it's put into a line graph, from the point of his appointment to now, The line would go up right to the top in his first years, then after the invincibles, the line is just collapsing, going down every year, we are getting worse and worse. With the invincibles team, we should have easily won the Champions league, EASILY, that was one of the best if not THE best sides english football has ever seen, the fact that we didn't take the opportunity to win champions league in them glory days, will haunt me forever.
Nowadays, Wenger's tactics are dead, and you cannot argue that he is clueless when when it comes to tactics. Just look at his defensive team selection against Swansea, let's break it down, what are Swansea attackingly? Fast, agile wingers, big powerful strikers ie Bony, Gomis. What defensive line did we put up? Chambers at Right back, don't get me wrong, Chambers is a great great prospect and an extremely good player for his age, however, he is more suited centrally, due to his good height and he is indeed not particularly fast, so against a player like Montero (Who was also man of the match *hint hint*) Chambers will have a nightmare. Moving on, Mertesacker, nothing wrong with that selection, got no comment on that. Now, Monreal, now, this was a huge problem playing him at CB, i don't blame the lad, it's not his fault for playing out of position, however, if you were Wenger, would you REALLY play a tiny spainiard like Monreal against Bony, who is on of the most physical strikers in the league? There is no way Wenger should have got away with that. And the last is Gibbs who i have no issues with, in fact he is one of the very few players this season that haven't done wrong.
Now, we can all agree, that the most suitable lineup that game would be: Bellerin, Mertesacker, Chambers, Gibbs. Right? No explanations needed, Bellerin is rapid and can deal with fast wingers, better than Chambers anyway, Chambers moved to CB, Tall, strong, more suited there. Don't think there are any doubts about the lineup that should have been used, and people will agree, right? So if we, football fans know it, why doesn't Wenger?
Ok one last thing, i realised i have gone on a bit, so one last point before i bore you to death, Wenger's tactical approach. Why, when we are in the lead, away at Swansea ( a very difficult place to play at), approximately 15 minutes to go until the whistle, are we all out attacking? This is where the equaliser came from, we were attacking with all units, I think there were 8 or 9 of our players around the opposition box, which is why we got counter attacked and punished, threw a very valueable lead away, And 2 minutes later, Wenger didn't learn and we got punished again, walked away with 0 points. Not to mention that Wenger won't make sups until about 75th/78th minutes every single match, which is ALSO why we get punished, a manager like Mourinho, when in a dangerous lead, will INSTANTLY make a substitution and put on a solid defensive midfielder such as Mikel and such, to sustain the lead. Wenger, when in a dangerous lead, puts on ATTACKING players... But wait there's another thing, we DON'T HAVE a defensive midfielder... We haven't had a proper one since GILBERTO SILVA, and no, Song was a more of a box to box than a proper defensive midfielder.
3-3 vs Anderlecht, we were dominating, against a very average side at best, we somehow concede 2, WENGER BRINGS ON PODOLSKI AND ROSICKY!!! WHY! This is what i mean when i said he is tactically retarded.
Do another one with these two please! It's entertaining and I like em both
ARE YOU MORE COMMITTED THAN ME ?
Best...Line...Ever
Claude has changed so much 😂😂
Claude is 100% right its up to Wenger to make the decisions , he is the one who sets up the team and tacticaly should adapt to the situation , the free kick no goalkeeper could of saved that it was a world class strike but we could have stopped the freekick ever happening , until Arteta got injured he was running the midfield then he gets injured who is to replace him ? Back to what Claude said not a big enough squad everyone knows this apart from Wenger
This video should be released in the theatres.
TY needs to NOT TALK when the mic isn't on him. Learn the basics of an interview mate!
No top team constantly looks to the ref to decide games, their players do and at the moment Arsenal only have one player who can potentially decide games in Alexis who must be frustrated with the fact he always give us a lead only for the team to hand the opposition a few goals e.g City, Anderlecht, Swansea, Hull etc..... I'm still behind Wenger, but just as last season, if we don't win anything I'll say he has to go.
TY you cannot change what you don't acknowledge, I hear you understanding our poor situation and agreeing only to follow it up with a "BUT", that's got to stop because if arsenal was a troubled person you would be an enabler, there's no "but"......we are not in a good place period!!
You want to look at stand alone games then sure, if a ref does this or that than we might not lose a game but that's an excuse for the short term, you want to keep winning games because the ref made the right choices or because we have have done the right things as a club?
The overall problem is Arsenals fault not ref of other players
It's called "rebuttal". Without it, there will be no debate. hahaha gosh some gooners are profoundly stupid!
Claude is right. Money spent on a bigger squad to cover all positions. Chelsea and Man City have done it, and we have the money to do it so Wenger's stubbornness to adapt is to blame. The argument that a big squad won't work coz quality players will miss out on games is rubbish. Chelsea will continue to be in contention well into the back end of the season in 3 competitions because their squad is the strongest in the league meaning they have players to cover positions to rest players in their first team e.g Mourinho can afford to rest Costa through the business end of the season when theyre playing 3 games a week because he has Remy or Drogba to cover. Simple. Wenger failed to do what was needed in the transfer season and cover key positions (another Centre back, another right or left back, CDM). Attack and flair can win games but defence throughout the season wins titles. Adams, Keown, Dixon, Bold. with Viera in front of them. That was spine of our great side of the late 90s and early 00s that were feared by everyone. This side has no spine and Wenger's to blame
Having these two together is entertainment gold. They get the best out of each other
Great video! You can tell these two are mates.
As a chelsea fan, claud is definitely right
Thoroughly enjoyed this :)
admit it, robbie, claude gave you 50000+ subs on his own
Lool that ''Are you more commited than me?'' should be a shirt merchandise lool. it is stuck in my head now.
Look a Robbies little smile, he fucking loves it
I'm a Liverpool fan, but claude is 100% right...
looks like Robbie is going to milk this as much as he can lol
i can understand ty for being positive but what hes got to understand is that when we are playing a team like chelsea you have to change tactics sometime and change things about.
but wenger rarely does this and it costs us a lot of the time, mourinho knows exactly how to play against us and knows how to beat us, we only have a plan A and when thats not working we dont know what else to do.
we have played the same way now for seasons and teams have caught up to us and can predict how we will set up and play, and thats the fault of the manager in my books.
Claude's facepalm whenever TY's talking is too much hahaha
Claude is my ARSENAL FATHER!! LOVE THIS GUY!!
I just hate to see two Arsenal fans fight over Wenger. Both attend every game and that show haw much they love the club. Instead of you two fighting get behind the team. YOU are LUCKY to go and watch every game live "home or away". Once my dream was to go to a live game at the Legendary Highbury and I wasn't lucky enough to go there. Both of you went to "only God know" how many games. Now and hopefully in the next year, I will visit the Emirates Stadium to my first Arsenal live game EVER.
GET BEHIND THE TEAM #COYG
Cheers...
they're fans, they have every right to complain or "argue"...
coa1979liw I was referring to their argument after the Swansea game.
For a second there I thought they were going for it.
Something I haven't seen before among Arsenal fans.
I'm a Man Utd fan but love watching this channel as I love football, the difference in opinion is brilliant and United fans never have debates like this
I love them both. They are fantastic together!
im a United fan but I love these two guys fighting about this kind of stuff
Claude is asking simple valid questions and the notion of blaming refs, bad calls and luck is tiresome.
Wenger's sense of hubris is destroying the club, He refused to get defensive mids (arteta and flamini are done), lets get sven and lar bender. The center backs have no cover and the most annoying thing is that he simply refuses to rotate the squad. We should not forget for a moment our second striker was Sanogo! His tactics are the same and predictable and for Ty to simply gloss over this Inadequacies is simply delusional. We can't keep talking about how great wenger and Arsenal was 10 yrs ago, ffs leeds and liverpool were great to 40-20 yrs ago. What the fans are asking for is simply progress. The FA cup was good but we should be contenders for The league and Champions league.
their both right in their own ways injuries are a massive thing for us but we have to have replacements for them players and we just haven't and it's not good enough I think arsenal board just evaluate everything at the end of the season n decide on whether winger stays or goes
Sell the BFG and play more counter attacking tactic with two fast ass wingers
Claude is in the right !!
Claude vs TY - Is It Arsene Wenger's Fault?? Negative clashes with Positive again in the AFTV studio. #Arsenal czcams.com/video/LkWLCjYvXuw/video.htmla
How do any of the fans know who's fault it is, we do not know what is going on behind the scenes with restrictions on wenger not being able to buy certain players, yes he bought sanchez, but maybe the board pushed him to buy sanchez and not strengthen up other areas of the pitch.
Arsenal are the greatest. we got Liverpool, Chealski and UTD fans commenting in every video.
I know Wenger isn't the man he once was but why do people constantly say Wenger out? I made a mistake a work the other day I didn't have thousands of people calling for my job.
So even though I agree with Claude and others that share his opinion about the mistakes at Arsenal, I certainly don't feel it's enough for Wenger to lose his job
If you made that mistake every day for 5 years they would.
i am a liverpool fans and i love this channel...😆
Wenger is scared to buy players and not play them when in the end of the day, it will help arsenal majorly! Look at Chelsea and the players they don't play, in the end of the day, those squad players will get their game time once the times right due to injuries and suspensions so why can't wenger just take that god damn risk?!
Jesus christ the composure of robby! I would've gone mental with ty screaming in my ear non stop
Claude is spot on! I have been making the same points for the past 9 seasons and get hammered by fellow Gooners. Every club has injuries, poor ref decisions and packed fixture lists. (COYG!)
I love Claude man, he always makes me laugh as hell :DD Look at my face, look at my face :))
when claude holds his head loooooool great vid #team claude
Agree with the Jenko thing. My lad did say on AFTV at Norwich last season - "He has so much more to show..."
He's doing well for WH :(
As a Swansea Fan and someone who has close North London connections (my mother was born in Camden Town and my cousin is a steward at the Emirates!) I think I can see the arguments from both teams' perspectives. While clearly the Swans are having a very successful season so far and Gylfi Sighurdsson, Ashley Williams and Jefferson Montero especially are all playing very well, it is clear to me that Claude is correct. Arsene Wenger is too attack minded. Arsenal's strength over the decades has been their defence. You build from the back and go forward and not the other way around. I admire Ty's enthusiasm and support for Wenger under vert trying circumstances but defensive failings have cost Arsenal dear yet again. I too have admired Arsene Wenger for too long (the days of Thierry Henry and Bergkamp are long gone and that team's success was due in no small part to their defence).
I know its frustrating but sorry guys its not just wenger's fault .. Its the situation's fault i think .. Just look at last season !! Vermaelen didn't had enough chances to play and he had to go .. We didn't had those injuries in our first team squad as now !! Our defence is just like last season bac left wenger bought debuchy verma left wenger bought chambers and we all know chambers quality !!! Its just the circumstances which are going wrong ... We gooners must be together and stand behind wenger and the team !!! Gooners till we die ... COYG
TY and Claude are both right and Wrong I'm somewhere in the middle but more with TY to be honest.
Reading through the comments and a Liverpool fan just said Sanchez was a waste of money amd that Llanana is a better bargain
When in doubt ref decisions out!! Ty is a joke he is a WENGER fan not an arsenal fan
Thought we played well in the first half but once again bad defending let us down.but I can't understand what Steve could is doing for our club I always thought he was a great player but he seems to just sit on the bench and does nothing perhaps he should grow a pair and stand up to arsene and sort the defence out .
Claude is spot on. Any teams can get decisions and Arsenal has been lucky in few games to results. Welbeck made a two footed challenge vs Chelsea,gifted two goals vs Sunderland, lucky Podolski goal against Anderlecht, late goals againt Everton and hull. TY agrees to all the issues and disagrees without any argument.
Hilarious. Never mind the Buzzcocks? You need your own Sky channel...
Love it!
Make this a weekly series xD
Give everybody a microphone maybe? Either way it was funny and a gd vid
I think that Claude is too negative, we've only lost two games in the league while the Swansea defeat is unacceptable for a club like Arsenal sometimes it happens. City lost to west ham, united to Swansea at home, Liverpool to Newcastle. But Ty is completely deluded. If he wants to talk referring decisions then he should be talk about the ones that we got. But like Wenger he refuses to put blame on the players and that's why they don't Improve. If William doesn't play well at Chelsea then shurrle replaces him. But when Santi, a player I love and have huge respect for, plays 5 games in poor form podolski and Joel don't even get a chance. Maybe the reason we get injuries is because of Wengers reluctance to rotate the squad meaning nobody gets a rest.
Claude is making for a better argument but Ty had his own opinion, funny how people are hating on him so much, hes still an arsenal fan for fuck sake
They both have valid points! Jenko should be called back, wenger needs to understand times have changed so he has to change his tactics but I love the man so give him till the end of the season
"If we won, nobody would have talked about it" Ty is so deluded.
Ty is in his own universe of football supporters! Ts sad tho blaming refs lyk dat. Wenger to blame 4 evrythn! Claude on point...
Yes it's Wengers fault! Wenger has stubbornly not addressed what we needed. Ever since he changed his bullshit philosophy of trying to replicate Barcelona, we have gone downhill. Since 2008 he had bought small, technical and creative players. This is ok but to only buy small players mainly for every position?!? In the toughest League in the world that does not make sense! We only have a handful of players that are over 6'0! The rest are lightweight. So, the saying "Arsenal always get bullied" is there for a reason. That is because teams have their powerful players and bully us. Since we do not have a Viera, Silva type of player anymore...we can not fight back! It's embarrassing that Wenger can not see it. This is why we have a TERRIBLE record against the top teams. Supporters like Ty are delusional. This team will not win the league. Chelsea will not drop 12 points, with us not guaranteed to drop anymore. We only make up the numbers of the Champions League. We needed players that are physically intimidating in the midfield and defence. Wenger has overrelied on players such as Arteta,Flamini, Metasacker, Giroud, Diaby, Carzorla, Monreal, Sanogo who are not good enough!!! We need players like Carvalho, Konkogbia, Wanyama, Ginter, Muititi etc for midfield! Players that will take charge and get stuck in!! This is another reason why we get so many injuries post 2008...our players are not physically STRONG ENOUGH to withstand a 50/50 tackle or collision. We need a strong, powerful, intimidating, commanding players in the back. Players like Varane, Camara, Bendimo, Martins Indi, Lescott etc. But Wenger keeps faith with a lanky liability and no defensive cover...go figure!!
LOOL! I was there, it was epic!
I agree with TY about wenger didn't know it was going to happen, and agree with claude aswell should of brought more depth into the squad
I have one name who I think will be the best to replace Wenger. Frank Rijkaard. Yes, most people may forget his contribution , but without him, Barcelona may not be as success as now. When he took charge in 2003, Barca has been without league tittle for 4 years. In 2005 Barca got the title and won champion league one year later. He found and transformed Iniesta and Messi from young talent to be great footballer. Xavi and Puyol initially was just a "good" player before Rijkaard came but soon become one of the best in the world. I think he is an excellent coach for club which is still in transition period like Barca 10 years ago and Arsenal nowadays.
Do you know what I think is going to be the most obvious sign that Wenger could be the man to fix things? It's if he makes signings as soon as the window opens or if he waits till the end of January. There is nothing stopping Wenger signing players right now, only they wouldn't be able to move to AFC until the 1st of Jan. We are so desperate at the back that surely any sensible manager would have these signings completed in the next month and a half so they can join on the 1st of January. If he waits till the 31st then what more proof do we need that he is only keeping his job to help Kroenke build his fortune. A managet trying to compete doesn't wait until the last minute for cheaper deals. He acts fast and pays the money, like Mourinho did in bringing Matic back. Quick, decisive and paid much more than they sold him for, but they got the player they wanted and needed. Whereas Wenger will probably dilly dally and end up with someone who is a 4th choice centre back at best. Another Silvestre type signing. We will see.
Spot on Claude. TY agrees with everything you say but still cannot see that AW is responsible! That's not being positive - that is someone who seems to have difficulty thinking clearly.
Excuses upon excuses, they are literally the only things that we can use and this has been an on going problem for years now
Ty kept on saying we're missing Lauren and debuchy of course we bloody well are it's not wengers fault they got injured fair enough but for him to sit there and not prepare for a situation where they could get injured is unforgivable why the hell was Miguel sold and vermaelen? We had no reason to sell either of them I had a bunch of fans slating me for saying that transfer window was crap and it's only now we're seeing the problems? C'mon man a club like ours should NEVER be in this position idc if we didn't sign a CDM at this point but there's no way in hell I'll accept us not getting a CB
I love Wenger, he is far and away the best manager we have ever had. That said, for two years everyone has seen and known that we were criminally short in defense and dmid, and in three transfer windows he has n yet addressed either adequately. One class dmid, and a class center half to back up and we would be beautiful. Being this short at back is inexcuseable, and it's not just injuries, it is criminal neglect in the transfer window.
You need another mic Rob
I'm 100% with Claude we should have a bigger squad to cover these injuries but I say Wenger has till the end of the season to sort it or he has to go...
gotta love ty!
they make similar points from different perspectives one is positive an one negative
Rip
i think TY analyzing the things like a kid
A team that deserves a title, should be good enough that they dont need to blame referees. A team that deserves to
be winning the title, should be good enough to overcome poor refereeing.
Wenger is doing his job. Top 4, champions league, boards happy. Us fans though are beyond frustrated, it's fucking insane letting verminator go and your back up is monreal.
Claude is right about Wenger making decisions but Ty has a good point. What if Gary Cahill or Felipe Melo had broken Sanchez' leg? We would be doing so much worse and that couldn't be Wenger's fault
I think Claude is referring to Matt Lucas in little Britain
If TY thinks we should be positive about being 6th in the table, drawing more games than we win, from winning one trophy in 8 years, from doing nothing in the Champions League, then he is a bloody idiot!!!
We should be looking at the negatives and working on it, looking at the positives all the time gets us nowhere
Haha Claude is the man! the best arsenal fan ever.
