/arse/ - eternal arsenal general

>Wenger said Arsenal met Monaco’s €100m (£92m) asking price for the 21-year-old but that Lemar decided against a move away from the Ligue 1 champions. Arsenal made three bids for Lemar earlier in the summer, the biggest being worth €50m, but even the late €100m offer did not get over the line.
>Speaking on Téléfoot, a French football programme, Wenger said: “€100m for Lemar? Yes all true, I wanted him. He decided to stay at Monaco. We will come back for him.”

>>78019383
What doesn't he understand about Lemar not wanting to play for him/Arsenal? Does he honestly think Arsenal will do well enough this season to change his mind?? Arsenal will finish 6th at best and ozil/alexis and others will be gone and that certainly won't convince him.

>>78019482
He is actually that deluded. Every decision he has made so far points to that way of thought.

>>78019561
Yup. From him all the way up to the owner the leadership at Arsenal is SHIT

>Maltese judge bans England pitch invader for a year
>[...]Judge Elliott Magro also poked fun at the fact he supported Arsenal, according to Malta Today.
>“You always come close but never win anything!” the magistrate said.

Wenger:"I considered leaving Arsenal, there were contacts with PSG.

>>78019383
>>78019482
From what I understand and have read, Lemar agreed to join us earlier in the summer, but Monaco blocked the move. Asked for more money and then blocked the same every time.

When it came to deadline day, we met the stupid price purely so that we could sell Alexis and reinvest. But Lemar rejected, after seeing a poor start to the season but also being happily settled at Monaco and France. The move was a risk, in that he could have moved to a team in trouble and jeopardised a guaranteed World Cup place at Monaco.

Lemar was the first time a players snubbed us when the money's been there though. The tide is turning against Wenger, for sure.

Although if we were willing to bid100m for Lemar, I do believe we were willing to pay 120 for Mbappe, which I didn't believe before.

>>78019677
Then wenger is still retarded for thinking he will get a different answer next summer. Arsenal will do worse this season and Lemar will still say no.

>>78019677
We only went that high because we were desperate. It's why Wenger pulled out earlier in the window for Lemar, he wasn't desperate then.

>>78019790
Imagine if a proper bid was made earlier in the summer(north of 50m) could have been a different start to the season.

>>78019677
If I'm Lemar, I'd have a lot more faith in Leonardo Jardim's ability than Wenger's to galvanize a squad. And that doesn't take into account the fact that Arsenal aren't in the Champions League, are set to lose their best players on free transfers, and will have a very hard time to qualify for the Champions League next season.

AS Monaco > Arsenal does not seem like a good career move ATM

Are you guys serious telling me that Ozil wrote a letter to complain why Arsenal legends attack him so much, and he proudly said that he has won 3 FA cups and 3 community shield, and people should thank him?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Looks like the poor guy has been infected with the loser mentality of your pathetic excuse of a football club.

Krystian Bielik has been ruled out of action until December following surgery to correct a shoulder problem.

The 19 year old suffered the problem when playing for the U23s against Man City last week, leaving him sidelined for a few months.

op here.

Love Wenger. Want him gone. He's probably a bit senile now and he's truly living in denial. Delusional about where this Arsenal squad is, his teams talents, and doesn't know how to get the best out of his players.

Everyone knows his times up. The board were having meetings and ready to say he should walk away.

Kroenke didn't give a fuck. As long as the money's coming in, he just wants things to be ticking along. He brought the club in 2011, in a deal which valued us at £700m. With absolutely no investment, and pretty much 0 work to go along with that, the clubs value is now about £1bn, meaning the value is up by (a conservative low estimate of £300m), of which 66% is his so minimum £200m. He's genuinely had to do nothing. He just cozied up to the right people and got Danny Fiszman's dying trust.

Realistically, if Arsenal was sold today, we'd probably be valued at closer to anywhere from £1.2-£1.5bn.

Kroenke walks away with 67% of whatever fee the club is valued at.

Kroenke calls the shots. Do I wish Wenger went ? Yes. But he's not the problem. The club is rotten to the core, due to this bastard.

>>78022893
Özil was a starter for a big club while Alexis was warming the bench.
Özil won the World Cup while Alexis won some sudaca meme trophy.
Özil remained a humble player thoughout his career while Alexis disappeared up his own ass after his first good season at Arsenal.

>>78023163
Shoulder injuries seem to be fine. Just a shame he's missing a period of his development when realistically he could be first team bench by end of the year/next year.

Next level TAC-TICS

----------------------Cech
-------Koscielny-Xhaka-Monreal------------
Bellerin-----Elneny--Giroud-----Kolasinac
-----------Özil--------------------Alexis
--------------------Lacazette----------------------

Basically a back-4 with Xhaka doing the Xabi role and Giroud as the big sexy charismatic DM. Imagine Fellaini with a glorious beard winning headers, bullying everyone, playing one-touch counters and quick link-up-play then arriving late into the box to score from crosses and The Neny running around like an Ethiopian running on grass for the first time.

Unstoppable.

>Özil was a starter for a big club while Alexis was warming the bench.

yet Mou literally dropped Ozil at his second season and replaced him because he was a crying pussy. He even admited that Ozil was too soft to be a elite player. Meanwhile, Alexis was literally the best player in Barcelona squad in his last year when Messi got injured.

>Özil won the World Cup while Alexis won some sudaca meme trophy.

by that reasoning Keylor Navas is better keeper than Buffon because he has a CL trophy

>Özil remained a humble player thoughout his career...

thats why he left Real Madrid because people didnt respected him as the elite player he was and wanted the same amount of money as someone actually good like Cristiano.

lol Ahmed, calm your tits. Ozil is shit.

>>78023671
The entire Madrid squad respected Özil as an elite player. Read what Ronaldo and Ramos said about him.
Özil wanted to stay at Real, his father made him leave because he could earn more at Arsenal.
Turks always do as their fathers tell them.

Ozil a shit and Sanchez will be shit this season too. Should have sold them both last month.

I don't know how it feels to be a top player but changing position from forward to defensive role would need a different thinking feel, instinct or things like that. Giroud doesn't have much experience in defensive role, I don't know if it's going to work.

Rather risk it with new manager than stalling with Wenger. At least with new manager you can judge his ability whether he deserved the position or not. If not, sack him and find new manager immediately. Top clubs like Barca, Real, Bayern, etc are not afraid in changing manager because they want to find the best for their club and that's how they get their trophies and superiority over others.

Ian Wright is such an embarassment. His opinions are meaningless because he changes them depending on whatever gets him more media attention, he is literally whoring his name out for the media bucks. That stupid outfit, it all screams, look at me, i need to get paid.

That whole English pundit phenomenon is cringy as fuck, they are all clearly too stupid to actually become managers. Gary Neville the most highly rated of them all, who constantly says retarded shit while commentating, showing his complete lack of understanding of the game, and failed miserable the one time he actually was allowed to manage a club.

England's NT is crying out for an English manager, but there are none. Gareth fucking Southgate, a man with no leadership skills and clearly subpar understanding of the game is literally the best they have found, while all the famous "Legends" sit on their fat arses being armchair pundits, pretending to understand the game, while feeding the worst of the english football mentality, the real reason why they always loose, this nonsense like it being about heart, individual heroics and putting your body on the line, instead of intelligence and team cohesion. The difference between successful nations and England is that England hasn't practiced the basics, short passing, clever movements, team structure, working for each other, good ball control, instead opting for flashy shots from distance, really long balls, crunchy tackling, etc.

Very true, however there is another point against the board that has since come out (via @DarrenArsenal1). Last week, Ivan met with the staff and said "over the past 10 years if you look at our net revenue, we've over-achieved".
I think overall, it empowers the AKBs slightly more to the detriment of the board, but it's still not painting Wenger in a good light.

I wouldn't be so sure. Being relegated is very serious for Arsenal as we've not being outside premier league. Pretty sure the board will confront Wenger about what things can be done to avoid it and will consider replacement ASAP while Wenger offered position into the board member or sporting director or something. Hopefully they can bring Allegri, Jardim or Tuchel.

>>78042603
Pretty sure Wenger will never be confronted and 100% will never leave of his own accord.
And I pray he completely fucks off and doesn't join the board or be director of football. Man just needs to leave the club alone.

>>78042820
So you think Wenger will still be a manager even if Arsenal get relegated? Dunno if anyone will allow that. Players should boycott him and do Ranieri.

>>78042948

>>78043063
If we're in relegation battle by December, the fans will have more protest than ever, If I live in London I will go to protest every week 2bh. More pundits and ex-legends will also call Wenger out and this will put Wenger in more pressure than last season. Really hopeful that pressure will make him drop and affect the dressing room. Since Sanchez is still there, he will make another upset and break any cohesion which will make the teamwork worsen even more. If that happen it will make a chain of breakdowns in the club.
But yeah, I don't know what will happen. Will Wenger able to lift up the team's performance and get rid of negativity of thrashing last week?

You don't realise that Arsène Wenger is the only red pilled manager in premier league do you ?

>>78048438
You don't realise that the "league" doesn't exist and it's just the same two teams playing each other every match do you ?

>>78048438
I used to think that when we had Vieira or Campbell who used to BLACK everyone, but now I don't.

Why don't Arsenal just try harder?
Then they could win some football games.

Can we talk about Ian Wright? Great player but what a fucking shitbag he is. He couldn't care less about Arsenal, he just says what the media is saying

>>78056116
i tried here, >>78035088, only response was some oezil hater and that texas guy who is so obsessed with sanchez, he cant talk about anything else.

I think England game perfectly demonstrated the flaw in their mentality. They never score goals from good team play, its always individuals, occassionally combining with another, to score blooters. Compare that to Germany v Norway, yes they are worse than slovakia but they are very defensive and usually hard to break down. All 6 goals were brilliantly teamworked.

I wanna see arsenal play like Germany, they used to, but not anymore. Fuck this individual brilliance thing, its inconsistent and overly dependant, get the unit working and you don't need standout talents. Seriously doubt that Wenger can organise this nowadays though.

So is Sanchez really injured?

>>78056116
Wright is paid to be a pundit not a cheerleader for this shit club while it's embarassing itself. We're shit, we deserve to be criticized, Wright and Henry being the professionals they are actually do so instead of hiding.
>>78056651
Yeah lad, just like Coutinho's 'legit' injured back. If only he could be professional enough to get on with the job instead of pretending to be injured because 'muh city'.

>>78056651
>>78056693
Dunno really, but isn't he doing more harm to himself rather than anyone else? Staying out of training regime and all that. Even Diego Cuntsa (as rumour has it) is going to get back to training even tho he was OK with the team fining him "multiple times" just a few days earlier (and AWOL in Brazil kek).

>>78055965
Well he CAN win the league. But he won't

>>78043300
Who the fuck predicts the future?
Who would be happy if the playmaker of the team and one of the best players in assists leaves?

I'm thinking of writing an erotic novel on Arsenal

I've put a substantial amount of thought into this, and feel that I have identified a niche market. I'm making this thread to see if there's any particular demand for such material.

Over the past twenty years, one thing that has been massively overlooked is Wenger as a sex symbol. We can discuss his merits as a football manager and argue whether he was successful or not, but one thing that is particularly obvious to us is that despite his tender age there seems to be a very mysterious, almost sexual element to the way he operates and the way we perceive him. When he talks, you want to listen. There's a sexual aura surrounding him when he enters the room. There's a particular scent that draws you closer to him. Look at the way the man dresses, this is someone that has a lot of sex. Although none of this is documented.

49 shades of Wenger (49 is a tribute to the unbeaten run) aims to vividly capture what Wenger does behind closed doors with some of the players that he has attempted to lure in over the years. There is a reason why our stars have claimed Wenger was a major attraction to Arsenal, and this book will let you know why in as much detail as possible. I'm not going to ruin it for you, but I may post some excerpts if moderators will allow, in the coming days.

>>78067448
Hahahaahaha. Nonces.

heres the sum up from leddit
Off to a good start

Arsenal did well by breaking their transfer record early on in the summer, with the signing of Alexandre Lacazette from Olympique Lyonnais for £46,500,000 - and was a summer that even the ardent cynics were going difficult to argue with. Kolašinac was a signing that was made towards the end of last season.

Lacazette and Kolašinac were examples of how to get transfer done correctly. Shrewd money spent on Lacazette and they did very well in that transfer.

Arsenal made a lot of signing off the field as well, which included the former Liverpool fitness man, Darren Burgess and Huss Fahmy, who will deal with any of the contract situations at the club, although Ornstein how much influence he's had and he has worked with Dick Law very closely, although he didn't seem to have much of an influence on the team's transfer business, which is understandable, as he is new to the role.

The optimism was there for a really positive summer, however, Ornstein understands that from various sources around the club, that once they signed Lacazette and despite reports saying AS Monaco's Thomas Lemar's arrival was imminent, the interest in Lemar was interest and although they had hoped to sign him, the transfer was not close. Lemar had indicated that he wanted to join, and had indicated as much to Arsenal at that point too.

>>78081954
Thomas Lemar

Ornstein could not confirm or deny rumours that Lemar had visited Arsenal's London Colney training ground. He said although he hadn't heard that that was true, he said that he just wasn't aware of it and was not told that information, he may have, he may not.

Lemar told Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger personally, that he would be willing to join Arsenal. However, AS Monaco's fire sale (For the want of a better word) meant that Arsenal had essentially bid for the one player at Monaco that was not available for purchase as Monaco were reluctant to part ways with him.

As for whether or not Arsenal could have perhaps pushed the boat out a little bit more and persuade Monaco to sell Lemar, Arsenal did not have the funds available at that time to do that. However, Arsenal would have had the money available after the combined sales of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool and the potential sale of Alexis Sánchez to Manchester City. Arsenal then had an offer of £92,000,000 accepted as we know. Ornstein said that whether or not Arsenal did actually have the funds is open to interpretation when the club releases their accounts.

>thread made sunday
>still not even halfway to bump limit on wednesday

where the fuck has everyone gone?

time to shut down this pathetic ''general''

>>78081958
General Transfer Window Dealings

Ornstein said that while Wenger may be open to criticism for his part in Arsenal's transfer dealings, he did say that he is not sure how much money Wenger actually had to spend on players.

An annoying habit of Arsenal's, is to sell players and then sign new ones, which is perhaps not the best strategy.

Ornstein listed Chelsea as an example of teams who have had good transfer dealings in the past, mainly down to their ruthlessness.

It was fairly obvious who Arsenal were prepared to do business with this summer, regarding agents. Agents were made aware of players who were made surplus to requirements such as Wojciech Szczęsny. Arsenal essentially showed their hand too early and made club's wonder why they would need to bid large money for players that they already knew Arsenal wanted to sell.

Olivier Giroud was a different case as his mind was not totally made up as to whether he would leave and Kieran Gibbs, no one offered the money that Arsenal demanded.

Calum Chambers, was subject to some very decent offers, two bids were lodged in the £20,000,000 region for him on Transfer Deadline Day Eve from Leciester City and Crystal Palace had also lodged earlier bids too, and were quoted £27,000,000 by Arsenal.

It looks like Arsenal seemed to price several of their players out of potential moves.

>>78081969
Lucas Pérez

Lucas Pérez was a classic example of being priced out of a move by Arsenal. Pérez was extremely offended by Arsenal's decision to give the number 9 shirt to new signing Alexandre Lacazette. Pérez was desperate to leave in a permanent deal.

Pérez was (In Ornstein's words) absolutely fuming that Arsenal had given his shirt number away to Lacazette and so were the team around him. Pérez was informed of the decision by his mother, or another member of his family of the club's decision to give away his shirt number. Pérez woke up to a number of phone calls, beliving he had been sold or something along those lines, he called his family up and they told him to look on the Arsenal website and saw that the number was now Lacazette's. Pérez tried to contact the relevant people at Arsenal, unfortuantley they were on the flight to Australia, so unable to answer the phone call. When they landed, Pérez was informed that the decision had been made in mid-air, perhaps when flying over India. Arsène Wenger has since apologised to Lucas Pérez over the incident however.

Other players have wanted shirt numbers of players who have been out on loan. Those players were told by the commercial bosses and by Arsène Wenger, that this is simply not possible. Wenger still regards players out on loan as Arsenal players and will therefore not sanction the removal of their shirt numbers while the players are out on loan. This makes the Pérez situation all the more baffling. Pérez was not consulted. Pérez had also moved into temporary accommodation at this point too, believed to be a hotel, clearly as he wanted to move.

Ornstein feels that Arsenal were perhaps justified in asking for big money for Lucas Pérez, as they had paid £17,100,000 for Pérez last summer from Deportivo de La Coruña.

>>78081972
Wenger had indicated to Pérez that he wanted him to stay at the club, when it looked like Giroud would be leaving and Sánchez' future was still unclear at that point.

As soon as it was known that Giroud would be staying, Arsenal gave Pérez permission to leave the club, although this turned out only to be on loan.

Pérez had made no secret of wanting to go home, but perhaps the shirt number was the straw that broke the camel's back and deeply upset Pérez.

Kieran Gibbs

Kieran Gibbs failed to agree personal terms with Turkish side Galatasaray S.K., although he was perhaps not too keen on this move, which is when Watford and West Bromwich Albion battled it out for him.

Ornstein feels that Arsenal should not take a lot of flack for the situation regarding Kieran Gibbs, as Gibbs procrastinated for much of the summer and was happy to see out the final year of his contract as he was entitled to do. Arsenal were keen to get the deal done as they needed a squad place, however, another situation that turned into a sage that didn't need to. Arsenal have a small team of negotiators and this is affecting Arsenal's, which couldn't be made incoming until players left the club.

>>78081975
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Regarding Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ornstein revealed that at the beginning of the summer, Arsenal offered Oxlade-Chamberlain a fairly small contract offer which was only a small pay increase on his previous contract and looked small in comparisson to other footballer wages. It is reported that Arsenal offered around £80,000-a-week, which was a £20,000 bump up from his usual £60,000-a-week salary, which got things off on the wrong note. It seems to be from Oxlade-Chamberlain's camp that they were dissatisfied with this and weren't looking to move forward necessarily. It is unknown what Oxlade-Chamberlain himself, personally felt about this.

Oxlade-Chamberlain is a very indecisive person and as the transfer window came to a close, he decided that he needed to sort his future out and had many talks with Arsène Wenger, but nothing ever really came to a head.

Oxlade-Chamberlain made it clear that he did not want to stay at the club based on the money that was offered to him. He made his decision based on footballing grounds and those alone.

Oxlade-Chamberlain came into training one day and was told to report to Wenger's office where they had a meeting. In that meeting, Oxlade-Chamberlain finally plucked up the courage to tell Wenger that he would not be signing a new contract with Arsenal and wanted to move on to a new club. Wenger did not take this news well at all, and it seems that in an uncharacteristic move for Wenger, he let Oxlade-Chamberlain know exactly what he felt of that decision.

Ornstein says that Wenger is a hugely intelligent man, and has dealt with fair worse sagas than Oxlade-Chamberlain's, and he told him that he would accept Oxlade-Chamberlain's decision. However, Wenger was adamant that Oxlade-Chamberlain's departure from the club would be on Arsenal's terms and no one else's.

>>78081979
Cheers for these.

>>78081979
It is implied that Wenger's comments in the summer in pre-season that Oxlade-Chamberlain would sign a new deal with the club was perhaps done as a tactic to convince Oxlade-Chamberlain to sign a new deal and show just how much faith he had in Oxlade-Chamberlain and perhaps build the team around him.

The view inside Arsenal for a long time is that Oxlade-Chamberlain does not offer enough end-product, it is unknown if Wenger agrees with those sentiments.

It was quite clear that Wenger wanted Oxlade-Chamberlain to stay at Arsenal, but that the club wanted to move him on. Wenger told Oxlade-Chamberlain this, but it seemed to have no impact there.

Playing Oxlade-Chamberlain at Liverpool was perhaps a tactic to either drive his price up or convince him that Wenger still wanted to keep Oxlade-Chamberlain and still believed in him.

Arsenal got very good money for Oxlade-Chamberlain, very good indeed, considering the situation of Oxlade-Chamberlain not reaching his potential and also being in the last seaon of his contract.

>Alexis Sánchez

On Alexis Sánchez, Ornstein felt that the whole situation regarding Sánchez was a complete mess.

Ornstein believed that Arsenal were steadfast in their decision not to sell Sánchez was perhaps that Lucas Pérez didn't know what was happening with Sánchez and Giroud. As a result this seemed that Sánchez was always available to sell, although publicly the club said that they had no appetite to sell Sánchez.

Arsenal would not sell Sánchez without a replacement.

Arsenal had to maintain that Sánchez was not for sale, their stance was justified and they had to say what they said otherwise they would have induced mass-panic. It would have damaged Arsenal's reputation and because it would have stopped Arsenal earning good money.

Bayern Munich had agreed personal terms with Sánchez, however, that broke down.

PSG's pursuit of FC Barcelona's Neymar, prevented them signing Sánchez too.

The one thing that Arsenal have hanging in their favour regarding Alexis Sánchez, is that Sánchez absolutely loves the city of London! The lure of Manchester City was their manager Pep Guardiola.

Ornstein believes that should Sánchez sort himself out and play professionally, it is a huge achievement that Arsenal have managed to retain Alexis Sánchez.

Arsenal were perhaps always ready to sell as shown in the last few hours of the Transfer Window, but they didn't sell, which is a slight positive.

Shkodran Mustafi

On Shkodran Mustafi, Ornstein said that Arsenal's £35,000,000 signing from last season, Mustafi was very good when he first started at the club up until his injury. When he came back at Bournemouth away, Mustafi had a terrible game and failed to recover his form. Arsenal were not impressed with Mustafi's performances overall and were terribly disappointed.

Mustafi had a number of off-field issues, mainly focused around the fact that he recently became a father, and Mustafi and his partner came to the conclusion that they needed to perhaps be closer to their respective families after welcoming a new Mustafi to the family and they were happy to move to Italy, given Mustafi's experience there and his preference for the league.

Mustafi had clashed with a number of players at the club, which is not uncommon, he has squared up to a number of players and is not happy with a number of players. But the personal issues seem the most likely for him to move.

Arsenal's first choice of a CB was Jonny Evans to replace Mustafi if he left. Arsenal were very outside candidates to sign Evans as Manchester City were looking to sell Mangala, which obviously set them further ahead. Nothing Arsenal could do about that.

At one point in negotiations Arsenal offered West Brom Mustafi as a replacement for Evans, but this didn't help Mustafi, so that deal was even less likely.

rsène Wenger, the board and Stan Kroenke

On Arsenal's Centre-Midfield issues, Wenger identified the issue towards the end of the window that needed to be addressed. Wenger clearly does not have the support around him that he used to have in the "glory-days" where people such as David Dein would support Wenger and encourage him, whereas the new board don't seem to want to do that.

Wenger changes his mind a lot and it can sometimes, not all the time though, lead to issues in the transfer operations.

Arsenal needed to address their CM issues, and they didn't do so. Xhaka and Ramsey's positioning had made Wenger's mind up. The club made their decisions too late.

Wenger strikes something of a lonely figure at the moment, with having little support from the board, while the failings in the window may be other's mishaps, the CM issue ulitmatley comes down to Wenger for perhaps not working quickly enough to address the issue(s).

Arsenal are not incompetent however. They are far from it. However, their dealings off the field can be laughable at times. Arsenal's scouting operation(s) are not thought of very highly, anywhere in the world, their negotiation tactics are not highly regarded and their late decisions and dilly-dallying mean that signing people late was almost certainly impossible.

On Wenger himself, Ornstein says that basically Gazidis and Wenger's relationship is not perfect, but it is also nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be, they get on very well and even meet during Friday lunchtimes.

Wenger and Gazidis did not discuss Wenger's contract. It's still not known what happened there.

Wenger basically does not have the support that he needs from around the club. He doesn't have the structures and support in place to get him or the club to where either of them want to be, Wenger is essentially on his own.

>>78082007
The hysteria surrounding results can worry people and there's no reason that Arsenal can't still do well this season.

Wenger is incredibly hurt when Arsenal lose and as an Arsenal supporter, he was worried that his contract last season was the main reason for fan devision and is incredibly worried about the Arsenal fans this season too.

Stan Kroenke is incredibly interested in winning trophies at Arsenal and is very hungry to bring success to the club, however, he will not inject any of his own personal wealth into the club, which is also a club decision made at board level.

The board may reconsider not allowing Kroenke not to invest his own personal wealth into the club. Arsenal are very ethical in the way that they operate. In fact, they have pulled out of transfers such as the signing of N'Golo Kanté, as his agent was demanded a higher fee and Arsenal felt that this could leave the transfer open to investigation, so they pulled out. Arsenal do things by the book, perhaps too by the book.

Arsenal don't seem to show any signs of wanting to change from this business model, which is a worry for them. As their revenues are very low compared to their other club counterpoints. Arsenal have fallen very far behind other big clubs in terms of commercial revenue or their kit deals.

Wenger was hesitant about signing a new deal until meeting with Kroenke.

The day-to-day running of the club is left to Ivan Gazidis. Josh Kroenke is present far more than his father, unfortunately Josh Kroenke is worried that he may step on his father's toes as Josh Kroenke is not the owner, it is not currently known if the club will be passed down to him at a later date. But Josh Kroenke is enthusiastic and is offering all his support to the board if they need it and is always available via comm links and the like.

Ivan Gazidis is a very good operator, but he is more of an Operations Manager than an actual CEO.

The board was split on Wenger's future.

This whole thing has echos of the end of the George Graham era, and Arsenal were in a relegation battle until the final few weeks of 1994-95.

I doubt anyone who's spent a grand on a season ticket would be willing to boycott or give it up when there are 30-40,000 waiting to take their place (though for how long is anyone's guess).

It would have to be something inside the ground/on camera but short of a boycott like a sit-in after games, not taking seats until 15 minutes into the game etc.

>>78082015
Arsenal are looking at clubs like Atlético Madrid and Leicester City as great examples of how to run a football club and still achieve. Wenger personally does not like the comparisons between the two clubs, however, he does see how the clubs have done well. The board are far more fixated on the other clubs.

Arsenal are making star signings, but their decisions do not seem to reflect this. Arsenal and their board have the best of intentions, but they don't carry it out very well and their thinking sometimes discredits the earlier ideals that they held.

Arsenal absolutely want to succeed, they are desperate to win and it seems that for all it's worth so is Stan Kroenke, but Arsène Wenger is absolutely desperate for winning things!

Arsenal have laid out the vision for the club to future players and to former players like Robin van Persie, but Arsenal have perhaps focused more on improving their academy facilities etc, rather than the squad itself.

Arsenal have still been very successful with three FA Cups in four years, which many clubs would love to have, but Arsenal's expectations are a lot higher than that.

Wenger fucked up so bad they don't even need replacements for arsenal to perform better, the players can revert back to their natural positions and arsenal will start performing better. Imagine anyone keeping laca and kola on the bench and starting chamberlain right bellerin left Monreal center and welbeck front. Imagine a manager doing that, getting ass blasted by a mediocre Liverpool and then doing fuck all on deadline day and getting to keep his job? It's one of those scenarios that us fans know better than the manager but he's too arrogant to realize it.

>>78056214
Hey dude. Also saw your previous post telling how Sanchez is bad for arsenal. Great posts. Why do you think most fans here are too thick to even consider that as a possibility? Arsenals worst season in a lot of years ironically came during Sanchez's best season of his career. Weird.

He's a dispossession merchant and a locker room cancer. Wish he had fucked off.

>>78082040
Atletico has been poorly run for the longest of times with a massive amount of debts and a dodgy system involving third-party ownerships, usually involving South American strikers like Falcao, Agüero, Forlan, Jackson Martinez.

Simeone literally saved the club from complete disaster by performing way above expectations with the team, but as a club, it's unrealistic to look at how they're run and try to implent any of it in England. Especially at Arsenal, where holding on to the gimmick of class prevents them to take those sort of routes and deals even more.

>>78082001
No mention that an Europa league team does not match Mustafi's ambition? Same reason why Özil won't stay.

Only Falcao and Martinez was third-party, don't be lazy and just list South American strikers. Notice how they both came from Porto, they're the real one with third-party issues.

Feels good.

Anyway Mustafi is shit, he was terrible at Valencia. Look at the game where they lost 7 - 0, he was responsible for half the goals. And he cost 40 mil, shocking signing. Played bad at Arsenal too, just got lucky in the forst games that his mistakes weren't punished

>Other players have wanted shirt numbers of players who have been out on loan. Those players were told by the commercial bosses and by Arsène Wenger, that this is simply not possible. Wenger still regards players out on loan as Arsenal players and will therefore not sanction the removal of their shirt numbers while the players are out on loan. This makes the Pérez situation all the more baffling. Pérez was not consulted. Pérez had also moved into temporary accommodation at this point too, believed to be a hotel, clearly as he wanted to move.
Wonga's such a little cunt.
