Arsenal (The Gunners) | Special Thread

[by default]

Ex-Arsenal players Stewart Robson and Nigel Winterburn disagree about whether Arsene Wenger's time as manager is up.
Arsene Wenger is "a dictator" whose time at Arsenal should have come to an end years ago, according to Stewart Robson.
The club's former midfielder, who played 210 times following his debut as a teenager in 1981, believes Wenger has a lack of tactical nous which is costing points every year.
Arsenal have made their worst start to a season under Wenger, but a large section of the support continues to back a manager who has twice delivered the Double and overseen an unbeaten league campaign during his 16-year reign.
Robson, though, told Sky Sports News Wenger's reluctance to listen to his backroom staff is behind the kind of defeat the Gunners suffered at League Two Bradford in the Capital One Cup.
He said: "It was a poor performance, but one I'm not surprised about. Time and time again Arsenal don't earn the right to play, and tactically (Bradford boss) Phil Parkinson showed he's a better coach than Arsene Wenger.
"I'm more embarrassed with the way Arsene Wenger conducts himself these days. He doesn't do any tactical stuff on the side of the field, they tell me he doesn't do too much work on the defensive side in training, yet he'll have a rant at everybody else.
"There's backroom staff that will challenge his decisions - Steve Bould, Neil Banfield, Terry Burton - but they can't challenge him because he's a dictator in many ways.
"Why isn't Steve Bould doing more coaching? Because - time and time again - I don't think Arsene Wenger sees the danger. When the team are making mistakes he doesn't rectify them, and the reason he doesn't rectify them is he doesn't know what the mistakes are.
"In my view it was time up three or four years ago. The fans have stuck by him, they always say 'in Arsene we trust', that can't be the case any more.
"Tactically Arsenal are all over the place at times, they're underprepared defensively, and if you have that you're always going to lose several football games in a season and not win trophies.

Mda umefika wa mabadiliko Arsenal. Wenger kashazeeka na ukomo wa fikra chanya ndo unakaribia.
Ila je, Arsenal wamejiandaaje kumreplace Wenger?

Arsene ni Dictator hilo halina ubishi hio body yote ya Arsenal wanashindwa kuchukua hatua kwani wanamuopopa

 

[Wandugu Masanja]

huyu babu anafanya kwa lengo
kwanini watu washinikize kununua wachezaji wazuri na anaweza kuunda timu bila ya wao kwani utaona anapanga wachezaji bila ya position zao ili timu ionekane ina wachezaji wote wazuri lakini haishindi, tutaona kama hatobadilisha upangaji kila siku timu itafungwa

Wachezaji hawa au watatu kati ya hawa ndio walioangaliwa sana na huenda wanaonunuliwa mwezi ujao.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar Schalke, Wilfred Zaha wa Crystal Palace, Pepe Reina wa Liverpool, Demba Ba wa Newcastle, Nani wa Man U na Mohammed Diame wa West Ham.

Tutulie tu pesa ipo ya kutumia isipokuwa haitatumika bila mipangilio.

 

[mtotowamjini]

Kama mnamtaka Nani basi hata kesho tutawaletea mpaka mlangoni kwenu

 

[Richard]

Sawa mratibu.

Ferguson anamtaka Walcott kwahio si mbaya kama nasi tukimchukua Nani bado kwa umri wake wa 26 ni mzuri.

Nani atakavyoonekana akisajiliwa na Arsenal mwezi ujao.

Mkuu KKN,

Hao wote ni walewale Arsenal haters ni wengi mno na wanafurahia sana hali iliyopo sasa.

Wenger ataendelea kuwa meneja wa timu ya Arsenal na ana mkataba amabo unamalizika 2014.

Amekiri kwamba Arsenal imepoteza mhimili pale kwenye midfield na hasa pale alipomuuza Fabregas na Nasri.

Jioni hii AST tumeambiwa kwamba kuna funds iliyopo kuhakikisha kunasajiliwa wachezaji muhimu ifikapo January.

Haya matokeo ya Bradford waliocheza kama wapo kwenye fainali hayapotezi usingizi.

Alaaah kumbe siku zote hizi alikua hajui hilo

 

[Belo]

Kuna tetesi kuwa Wenger na msaidizi Stive Bould wamegombana

Sijakuelewa!!

Mkuu Richard

mara kadhaa babu huonesha kusajiri, hilo huishia kutaja majina kadhaa na makocha wajanja siku hizi wanatulia kimya kusubilia maruhani ya wenger aanze kupoint majina na wao kujichukulia, yeye akibaki na ujinga uleule.

Kwanini tuishi kwa aibu mtaani kila siku, hakuna siku hivi karibuni nikaangalia mechi kwa raha muda wote pressure! anatuabisha.

 

[Richard]

Kwa sasa Wenger anaona makosa yake kwamba pale anapouza mchezaji nilazima asajiliubora uleule,

 

[Oxlade-Chamberlain]

Wakuu poleni sana kwa mwenendo wetu.

Nilikua nimebanwa sana na miangaiko na sasa nimerudi.

Pamoja sana na msimamo wangu ule ule kwamba lazima tumalize nje ya top 4 hili tujenge team ya maana.

 

[Wandugu Masanja]

mimi niko nyuma yako msimamo ni below 7 ndio itakuwa nzuri zaidi

Wakuu poleni sana kwa mwenendo wetu.

Nilikua nimebanwa sana na miangaiko na sasa nimerudi.

Pamoja sana na msimamo wangu ule ule kwamba lazima tumalize nje ya top 4 hili tujenge team ya maana.

Stan Kroenke 'has no passion' for Arsenal according to ex-director

Majority shareholder Stan Kroenke has been accused of "having no passion" for Arsenal by honorary vice president, and former director, Lady Bracewell-Smith.

Bracewell-Smith, who sold Kroenke her shares last year, tweeted: "If making money was the motivating factor, surely there are better ways.

“"[Kroenke] shows he cares very little. Why he wanted to be part of AFC I do not know"”

Lady Bracewell-Smith Former Arsenal director

She continued: "Football is a business of passion. SK has no passion for AFC."
Arsenal, beaten by Bradford in the League Cup, could not be contacted.
When asked her view of the way the club is being run, Bracewell-Smith added: "Disappointed would be an understatement!
"[He] shows he cares very little. Why he wanted to be part of AFC I do not know."

In October Kroenke insisted Arsenal are still targeting trophies despite the Gunners selling captain Robin van Persie to rivals Manchester United in August.
Van Persie's departure followed the sales of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri the previous summer.

There is also uncertainty over the future of England international Theo Walcott, whose contract expires next summer.
Meanwhile, former Arsenal and England striker Paul Mariner has backed Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger to turn things around at the club.
Arsenal have only won one of their last four Premier League games and were knocked out of the Capital One Cup by League Two Bradford on Tuesday.

"Arsene Wenger is a fantastic manager, he always has been and always will be," Mariner told BBC Sport.
"He's the right man both business wise and football wise to get it right. I've got no doubts that he'll pull it around.
"I think that teams have blips and everybody always looks at the manager, but the players have got to stand up and be counted.

"The January transfer window is an opportunity and there's nobody better at picking talent out from various parts of the world than Wenger."

BBC Sport - Arsenal's board 'should be sacked' says former director

hio board ndio mzizi wa matatizo
