I can't come to terms with what Wenger is implying here. Does he genuinely believe we're ok for what we have upfront? If so, it doesn't seem like we're fighting for any significant silverwear. If we make three signings - a ST, a CDM and a CB then we can easily challenge for anything we want to. If not, then we'll need Chelsea and City to have **** seasons, AND we'll need us to beat the top 5 teams away from home..
I'm never this pessimistic about Arsenal
Why can't we just go out and spend £50m - £60m on Falcao or Cavani? The suggestion alone makes people laugh =\ We got the financial power, we have a good reputation, a good manager, a good stadium.. we're in the heart of London.. we play at the top end of the worlds best league.. I don't think we'll get turned down by the player or the club (if we offer the right money), so why don't we just do it? It feels as though its a crime for us to go and spend money for some reason.
I don't know who it is - the board or Wenger, but the truth of the matter is that last season was such a good season to win something. This season everyones gotten stronger and we've pretty much remained the same (apart from Sanchez) & that's worrying. All of our signings have pretty much replaced the ones that have left, and are pretty much the on the same level anyway..
Wenger can't possibly think that Sanogo, even Giroud after last season, or podolski are competent enough to be the first striker of a team wanting to win the league =\
We've been needing to address two positions and neither have been addressed. If we sign no one by the end of this window I'm reaaaally not going to be confident for our season. We'll probably crumble at some point and it'll be the same story all over again. It's as though we make it hard for ourselves =\
Needed to vent.
Having said the above though, I do think the little rascal will surprise us all
