lampard10 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Knocked out thre Carling Cup by Wigan Knocked out the F.A.

ThaiPauly Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Arsenal are the epitamy of a "One Man team" When "HE" is not playing they are worse than useless. They used to be a "Two Man Team" but then Winger stupidly sold one of them and he did not bother to replace him I think they are the team with the biggest crisis in the Premiership right now. Having said all this they will probably win the Champions League now just to spite me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plus Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 They are not in a real crisis. They just need a replacement for Viera, and Arsene Wenger himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florin Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Any team has ups and downs...while not a fan, I think their team has quite a bit of future potential and the fact that there are so many young players being raised together will develop team spirit. And yeah, it would be funny if they'd be the ones lifting the CL trophy this season, though I oh-so-hope they crash at the Madridista hurdle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lampard10 Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Arsenal 2 West Ham 3.........................still no crisis at Highbury. Yet we've got a real crisis. And we extended our lead at the top by a point. Terrible Ref though....again. Should have given Villa a penalty early on to wake us up a bit. Terrific first half, football wise for both teams though.

ThaiPauly Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Arsenal loosing at home to West Ham, why am I not surprised??? A sure sign of a once great team that is not "Great "anymore. That result would have made headlines throughout the world 18 months ago. Not so now I fear. I have always followed Arsenal as my favourite Premiership team, and I am thankful that next year I will only have one alleigence in that division. But it is still sad to see them loosing so many games right now. Even Henry played last night and they still could not beat a team fresh out of the Championship at home. Arsenal in decline..........sorry to say I think they are, even though others may argue that they have some great young talent, Yes they have, but that's not helping right now is it? Like Man Utd they will have to have another "Coming" as all Championship Titles lead to Stamford Bridge for now and the immediate future I fear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mittheimp Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 It will be nice to see their new stadium half empty next season. dream on, have you ever tried to get a ticket at highbury???? There is a five year waiting list to become a season ticket holder, my wife is an Arsenal member at 'red' level which is below gold and silver, the only ticket she could get all year was the fa cup cardiff game.. and then only one so she had to go on her own!!

phuketsiam Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Wenger with Arsenal has achieved far more than Chelsea and on a fraction of the budget, this season is a poor one, but with Henri missing and Vierra gone its to be expected really, but don't write them off yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might like to think so but it wont happen, Arsenal have the most support in London (much much more than Chelsea) and there new stadium is only 60,000 seats. and I wont be able to buy any season tickets even if I could .......at over a 1000 quid each!!!

Spit the Dog Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 The problem now for Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson is that Chelsea now have Abramovich's cash and an astute manager in Mourinho. Chelsea have emerged as the ultimate force in English football and Arsenal and Man Utd have failed to keep up with them. In my opinion Arsenal still have the best player in the league in Henry but they don't appear to be the same team when he's not available. If there is any critisism of Wenger this season, it's that he failed to buy a proper replacement for Viera. He keeps playing the 2 youngsters in that position and it's clear that they aren't ready to replace Viera. The defence has also been shaky by conceding far too many goals. With Arsenal moving to a new stadium next season, I think that could give them the lift that will help them compete for next seasons title.
