I hope that Tony Adams has been misquoted - if not­ it's a shame that someone of his standing has to­ resort to "what I've heard" Arsenal's­ financial troubles all arise from the cost of­ rebuilding and Arsene Wenger's is obviously­ prepared to work within those parameters otherwise he­ wouldn't still be the manager. Do none of you have­ to "operate" within a budget - if not you are­ very lucky. Okay it's generally accepted that we­ need strengthening from the back but leave it to the­ Manager to sort it out. Our team is exceptionally young­ and gaining experience all the time and we have two­ potentially great defenders coming through in Hoyte and­ Gibbs plus a host of others.
Please stop the endless­ clamour because ultimately we could loose our Manager­ and who are you going to replace him with ?
Gooner for­ sanity

Danny Fizman is the problem he got shot of Dein &­ Nina Bracewell-Smith all money grabbers that they are­ but AW backers they are and people that backed new­ investment cant people see that Mr Fizman is out for­ his own goal to make as much money out of arsenal as he­ always has lets face it they have aggredd not to sell­ there shares till an agread date pretty suspect that­ that happens to be when the old highbury appartments­ are complete but it was extended till next year when­ the recession is expected to be over but good old money­ grabber Danny has split that of to another holding­ company that if Arsenal was to be bought over him and­ the other tight @#$%'s in the board would reap the­ profits of both its a shame we cant get a billionaire­ in that would buy the ground out right cos im sure if­ that was out of the way there would be plenty of money­ coming in to pay them back and provide enough money for­ transfers it makes me sad that thi is happening to the­ club over fizman & Deins ego's but thats be­ real Dein done a lot more for the club and for football­ in a whole than what Fizman ever done all he done was­ cash his cheques and bleed the club dry and is still­ doing it he trys to say he was the 1 that moved the­ club but it was Dein that set the wheels in motion­ shame on you Fizman

oh for the hallowed days of Adams, Keown Winterburn and­ co. I am sure they used to get suspended on purpose to­ let their mates have a few games and thereby natural­ rotation and keep themselves fresh.

A thought. If­ clubs had to have a maximum wages and purchases of 50%­ turnover, clubs would have to invest on youth­ structure. It wouldnt matter how many billions of­ russian zlodniks the owner had. Would also stop Fish­ Batter and Wadda Pratini squarking on about nationl­ content of teams.

Timity - Ur putting that tube silvestre in front of­ toure. You need a good kicking son. Toure was our best­ defender by a country mile last season. i think we got­ silvestre's @#$% older brother by mistake. He was­ a sleeper 4 united and nothing more.

Too many people worrying over nothing for next season­ up front or in midfield. We have RVP and Edaurdo up­ front with Ade, Bentner, Vela as reserves. Midfield a­ choice from Fab, Theo, Rosicky, Nasri, Arshavin, Diaby,­ Song.

Now comes the crunch. The defence. When fit you­ have Clichy, Gallas, Silvestre, and Sagna. The reserves­ for the defence are the lightweight that needs­ bolstering. Djourou, Gibbs and Toure did well but are­ they enough ?

mr wenger what is wrong with obefami martins,­ hunteelar, and many other players? oh yeah thats right­ there over the magic age of 18. according to mr wenger­ you cant be a top premiership player past your 20th­ birthday! im a gooner through and through but enough is­ enough. pleeeeeeease by some experinced players or we­ will end up a mid team table. look at everton, and­ villa they are closeing the gap on us while we drift­ away from the top 2!!!

Post No 20 - If AW was doing his Job, He would be­ looking for experience in depth so that the injuries­ that plagued us last season do not occur again, and we­ wouldn't have gone 4 years without winning­ anything!

I support Arsene in what he is trying to­ achieve long term, but as its US the fans who put bums­ on seats and buy the merchendise, I don't think its­ wrong to suggest shortcomings in the immediate future -­ i.e 2009/10 season

We need some experience to help­ nurture the young talented players on the pitch during­ matches! Remember what we were like prior to Overmars­ and Berkamp Joining - Just outside the top echelons,­ when they arrived, they boosted the desire and belief­ in the squad and gave us a cutting edge. I believe we­ are in a similar situation now and we need a couple of­ superstar playmakers to give us that cutting edge again­ so we can challenge for every piece of silverware!

adams you had pompey with you what did you do????? only­ taking them to the danger zone of relegation, so spare­ as your s**$.you are not yet ripe to handle arsenal­ WENGER is the MAN

MACS FROM KENYA

WOW... adam is a coming traitor. this is speculation is­ one of his strategies to become the new arsenal manager­ asap. sorry adam, you r never ever enough to become­ arsenal manager.

we dont really need to blow out the cash like any of­ the other big 4, and Man City.... always do, and of­ course theres squabbles in the board...theres some in­ every club
we shouldnt be panicking over anything, last­ season we were only 4 points behind, and this season­ everytime we had a run going we were ravaged by­ injuries....but we do definately need some driving­ power or force in Cb position alongside either Gallas­ or Toure, i think we have sufficient DM's in Song­ and Diaby, they've proved they can compete at the­ highest level, just need to be consistent
Let AW do its­ his way for he IS our most successful manager ever and­ in Arsene i trust
GUNNA 4 LIFE

Well what I think is that Tomy Adams is right here but­ what Arsenal need is one or two skilled players.­ Arshavin joined Arsenal and that is really good news­ also Rosicky and Eduardo are coming back next season­ and I hope they will be in good form. What we need is­ time and luck. Young players are getting better every­ day and Arsenal is full of them so its just a matter of­ time when we will hit 1st place again. In Wenger I­ trust.

oh shut up my friend and let the guy just do his job

No board member is 100% in favour of a manager all the­ time. So, yes Tony maybe correct. Will Arsenal finish­ higher in league next year? Only if they buy some­ quality players. I personally would like the to go­ after Carvalho. He would certainly strengthen what I­ consider one of Arsenals weakest defences in years.­ Please, no more French players or kids. We need­ maturity on this team and strong leadership on the­ field.

the board should put money up for players if the right­ player becomes available and fit in with arsenal style­ of play however if we went out and spent 60 million on­ players does not automaticaly mean things would be any­ better so stop moaning and let wenger do things his way

i think there is a problem with the board!!! come back­ mr dean maybe adams is right!!

i think this man no something what happen in arsenal.i­ am dissapointed with arsenal peformence last few­ season.when arsenal lose any game i will give the same­ reason that is..."they are just­ kids....."always the same.why they do not add some­ adult in a team.quality adult player.not only from­ france but other place.just know sign 22 year old­ midfield from france cost 5 million.is there any other­ country can arsene wender find player??????????or only­ france can play football in europe.
