this team looks as poor as i initially thought on deadline day. starting to have concerns about 4th place.
2011/12 Predictions
right now 4th is too high a target, Kami.
how about a coherent offense and an organized defense for starters?
yep we're a mess. definitely worried about 4th spot. i think we'll need atleast 2 panic buys in jan
Lagos, that assumes that we buy someone like Suarez in the winter transfer window. I see us finishing around 7th or 8th if we do not refresh in the winter

Heh heh, once again my natural optimism has gotten the better of me.
I predict we won't lose for another 2 weeks!
Song sets a target of winning the next five games:
“The next five games are very important for us.
“We need to win every single one to come back and show the fans that we are ready and that we are to fight for the league.” “We need to just keep going. We can’t lose games like this, it is not normal. We are not allowed to do it, for the fans and for everyone who loves Arsenal,”
Our next five games in the PL are:
16 Oct - Sunderland (h)
23 Oct - Stoke (h)
29 Oct - Chelsea (a)
5 Nov - WBA (h)
19 Nov - Norwich (a)
If we hadn't been subjected to the various disasters that we've had to endure since the season began you could be forgiven for thinking that winning all five, bar Chelsea, is not so lofty an ambition.
Given what we know to be true now - that any team on any day can cause us to collapse - targetting fifteen points out of that looks like a monumental task.
One game at a time. That´s where the focus should be. Just getting it right on the pitch for one effin´ game at a time.
Stoke and Chelsea will beat us. That simple. We ere playing for at most 9 points in those 5 games
Delap to Crouch sounds terrifying doesn't it?

we need to sell chamakh, vela, arshavin (love the guy but i think he's done) and bring in a top forward. if we bring in someone who's the finished product right now, i wouldn't mind a youngster like hazard, gotze or eriksen who would be more inconsistent. but top priority is someone who can do a job from day one.
Kami, you're kind. My ax would fall on everyone bar Robin. Might keep Walcott just because he is sporadically productive but every other forward would be put out on the street. Might as well bring in two high quality forwards and then use more of Rio and Oxtail, and promote Afobe. The others are not earning their money.
Do you think Wenger is earning his 6 Million pa?
Wenger is going nowhere but we have seen, all too often, that the club considers the players disposable.
Well players are disposable, time takes it toll.
But every reasonable person must ask- How come despite so many players coming and going over the last 6 years, and despite 27 different players being used already this season- We have never appeared further away from winning something?
Whats wrong with the picture.......
the first team has turned over completely twice now, yet we have the exact same problems. we've practically followed the scientific method here - the lone constant has been identified, the disease diagnosed. it's wenger and his crazy methods and ideology.

He's a genius. I intend to change my name to flobabainho, and see if it gets me a transfer to a European top club as well.
Flobaldo is actually pretty good. I´d buy that shirt!
Maybe you should have one of your employees typing for you...
Lagos is probably dictating from an iPhone 4S with a really thick accent.
Yeah, what you really said was:
