Has Wenger solved any of the problems you had last season? Sanchez is a quality signing no doubt about it but much like Ozil he seemed to be a signing to appease fans more than anything

We still haven't replaced van Persie, or even fucking Flamini from 07/08. I think Alexis was needed as we needed a starting winger for the left, but it's useless if you play one of the best no. 10's in the World in Özil out wide with a 21 year old who can't control a football up front. Wenger has never been great tactically, and it's showing now more than ever.

If we don't address these issues it'll be yet again another poor window. The last two summers are inexcusable considering the amount of funds we have.

So much for this being the season and Sanchez being the saviour then?

Went out the window as soon as he played Özil out wide and started the season with Giroud up top and Flamini as our DM.

It's a sad situation when someone who can't control a football starts up front for you. Fucking Sanogo, how we entered the season with him as second choice is beyond me.

This doesn't deserve a proper response but... your main gripe with him is that he makes the same mistakes but you Koscielny is the better than him? He's even more error-prone.

As I said the partnership problems probably increase the exposure of them tbh. But still, I think it's just as deluded to say that Kompany is 'comfortably the best' as saying that Koscielny is up there with the best in the Prem.

And yet he's still comfortably the best centre-back in the country.

Doubt it. Hasn't been what he was since the Agüero 90+4 season. Probably down to the fact he hasn't had a consistent defensive partner but he always makes mistakes. Cahill, Terry, Mertesacker & Koscielny have been better in the past couple of seasons imo.

Please let this put Benzema on the market and his contract renewal was just to bump his price up.

That's assuming that everyone is fully fit as well, which as we know with a fair few of these players is no guarantee. Hopefully Dan Crowley becomes world class like on FM and we can beat Colombia led by Eder Alvarez Balanta in the 2022 World Cup final...

Well, there's rumours floating about that Crowley has chosen to represent Ireland.

Unless someone spectacular turns up in the next couple of years, the national team pretty much has to be this for the Euros:

Hart
Walker - Stones - Cahill - Gibbs/Shaw
Wilshere - Henderson
Walcott - Rooney - Sterling
Sturridge

Compare that to Germany and they're probably better in every position.

It's ridiculous to be saying teams are as good as down with just two games played.

Not when they hire probably the manager with the worst Premier League record in history like Warnock.

Mirror & Telegraph reporting Giroud out til 2015 with a broken ankle. Says main targets are Falcao on loan (which'll cost us ~20m) and Welbeck for £15m.
