Nope. But having no need to be biased, Spurs or Arsenal..... I prefer the guys that play just off Tottenham High Rd. :icon_thumright:
Arsene "I didn't see it" Wenger is laughable. Brilliant eye for undiscovered talent, crap eye for everything else.
Be honest, are you getting a little bit pee'd off with it all now?? 4 or 5 years waiting for these "kids" to step up.
Arsenal ain't that much of a young team really..... Arshavin, Gallas, Van Persie, Almunia, Sagna, Rosiky, Eduardo, Eboue... all over 26.
Then you've got Cliche, Vermaelen etc... not exactly kids are they.
Wenger and his "I didn't see it" policy is spot on - No good manager slags off his own players in the media.
He has a good eye for Doubles though...:icon_thumright:
As for the 5 years - Football is a fickle world - Only one side can win the Premiership each year; Just look at what Manyoo, Chavski, Spuds and the bin-dippers have spent in that time...! We have a new ground to pay for and have to live within our means because of that - But the end fact is we'll be self sustainable in a few seasons.
Some 'Fans' seem to think they have a divine right to winning trophys!
The FA Cup has been a problem as you can't always play your full strength side in all your games; you have prioritize - Champions League, Premiership etc.
As for the 'Kids'
Clichy is 22
Djourou is 21
Gibbs is 20
Diaby is 23
Denilson is 21 (Just...)
Song is 22
Nasri is 22
Ramsey is 20
Wilshere is 18
Merida is 20
Vela is 20
Walcott is 21
Bentner is 21
Hardly middle aged are they!
These are all first team players that (Apart from Theo £7m Ramsey £5m) we've paid virtually nothing for if they've not come through our youth system...!
If RVP hadn't got his leg smashed by the dirty Italian in a fcukin 'Friendly' then wed be arguably top of the league.
No other team has done or would even consider doing what we're in the top half of the table - Regarding youth - Even Villa have spent big on playing smash and grab long pump the wing, whip in by Young etc!
The biggest problem in Football at the moment is fickle fans and the ticket prices/Player wages. This is being driven by an unrealistic world created by the Chavs, Re*l,Citeh etc.
I for one can't wait for the day that Football goes bust - There'll be some big clubs in big trouble within the next5/10 years.
Just look at the bin-dippers No money to spend, no new stadium and owned by foreign investors, intent on only making themselves money.
Mayoo have shown that even they have had to cut back If they hadnt sold R*naldo for £80m theyd have lost £40m last year No club apart from the chavs, citeh and Re*l can keep that up!
As for the Spuds down the road - Lets see how they spend when they've built the new stadium.... In their best season for 15+ years they finished 5th behind us; after we had our worst season for 15+ years....
I do get frustarted by our lack of signings at times - We just need a striker and a keeper and we'll be sorted (+ maybe cover for Song)
To sumerise; What other manager in the world could do better than Wenger? Apart from Manyoo - Every club in the world would drop their managers at the drop of a hat for Arsene.
Rant over....
P.S. So Aythreee - Who do you support then?!
