The only mystery is how has Short avoided the wrath of the fans for so long. It's desperate Gvortex, bloody desperate.

I feel your pain bruv. I don't know how you guys do it. After this many years of frustration I'd be in a lynching mood man. That guys obviously needs to go because there is just no light at the end of the tunnel for you guys with him in charge.
I kind of agree on keeping Moyes for now, at least till the end of the season, as I don't think you'll magically become better just because you replace him with someone else. But I do believe the man has lost something over the years. Ever since his ManU stint he hasn't been able to coach consistently well.

15 million isn't even in the ball park of what we needed to spend. Clubs are paying that for one player. Every year we hope that the club will see sense but they never do. I wish Sir Nial Quinn would return. The silence from the club is deafening. At least Quinny cared and relayed stuff to the fans.

Maybe Leicester does poorly and Arsenal can buy Mahrez for cheap.

Mmmmmm...

How would that work? Would Leicester say ' we have had a rubbish season, I think we should sell our prize assets on the cheap!

Arsenal don't need Mahrez now we have too many attacking midfield players.

What do you make of the summer signings for Arsenal Tob? Never really had much chance to discuss it.

I think if this season continues like this people will just ask to leave.

Wenger again took so long in the market and with the signing of Xhaka that was done early we had to wait for him to act at the end of the transfer market for him to finally sign Mustafai and Perez was a surprise signing.
Mustafai has made a big difference for us in defence and you get what you pay for him and Xhaka is another good addition to have in midfield.
But the last two signings would not have happened if the fans didn't keep pressure on Wenger but didn't get the chance to ask you steedeel what did you make of Sam Allardyce and how he threw away the England job.

It's just pure greed. Can't say I feel sorry for him, serves him right really. Nothing ever goes right for this club Tob, you couldn't make it up.

I agree with you about Allardyce steedeel and surprised how some so called t.v pundits have said they feel sorry for him that is a joke.
But i have feeling Moyes will be gone in December and don't know where Sunderland will go from there mate.

Where is Penton Man by the way? Doesn't he post in this thread anymore?

[A Sith Lord?]

I'm WengerForever.

Been watching the media blitz of his 20 at Arsenal, and I'm just fascinated with the guy.

He deserves to hangem up on his own terms unless we get relegated or don't make Top 4.

Welcome back Steed , we all missed you.

I've been real busy since returning from my travels and will continue to be so for the unforeseeable future

I admit (and nothing personal to Chelsea fans)....I'm still dancing since the Arsenal Chelsea match as that result was a loooooooooooooooooong time coming.

Steed, this is going to be yet another tough year for you guys.

Thanks, must say I'm a little worried about Hotspur, as they looked freakin AWESOME against Man U.

It's going to be a Aston Villa year from what I have watched upto this point. Finally put out of our misery and hope we can get straight back up like those black and white unmentionables up the road from us lol.
