    Both would have been good additions to the squad and would have helped to bolster the midfield, they seem to be having a torrid time of late. The premiership has gotten a lot more competitive in the last few years, it seems to be a case of if you snooze you lose.

      Good point.

      I suppose he was slightly unlucky because it coincided with spending all that money on the new stadium.

        The problem being is if Wenger does go who do they replace him with? would you be attracted to a club that is known for not spending? especially when the fans will expect immediate success

          Martin O' Neil. Don't suppose he's available though.

            When Wenger goes then the pretty football will go with it - Arsenal will just become another English premier league club.

                No but it makes it a more entertaining viewing experience e.g. give me an Arsenal game over a Chelsea game any day of the week... Saying that, now they have lost Cesc and Nasri (+ Wilshere temporarily), they are looking a lot less pretty.

                  Chelsea aren't exactly doing that well either, it's all about winning at the end of the day the fans want silverware and bragging rights
