Last season we didn't win it and Arsenal didn't start well. This season the players are enthused about the return of Rosicky, Eduardo starting the season and the back up in Wilshere. The spirit is the right one, so why dent it with your doomsday blog? Asene knows and will not openly talk about his targets. We will get a defender before the season starts. Go support Tottenham if you think money solves all problem. Team spirit and hunger to win will get us a trophy rather than spending. Watch Arsenal win more than 2 trophies this season Two seasons ago we won the Emirates cup and started the season well. Last season we didn’t win it and Arsenal didn’t start well.

They believe that spending big (or at least, buying the best players) is essential to success. Why would they spend so much in the first place? Because they are desperate for success. You cannot say that some of the most respected names in the game (Red Nose, Mourinho, Benitez, et al) are all wrong in their philosophies. Arsene simply knows we can't compete (yet) so is biding our time until we can. I forgot, consider the other top managers in the game at the top clubs.

Arsene Wenger is the greatest spin doctor in the game. He sell us the future, and even with 4 seasons without a trophy you still believe we can win the league. Just think about it logically for a moment here. Ever since we've moved from Highbury we've been a selling club. The clubs future is put before the present and right now we're still in transition. Otherwise we would be spending big money. The whole point of moving to The Emirates was to have more funds and become one of the biggest clubs in Europe - to increase revenue and raise bigger funds. But now isn't our time. This is a long-term plan and it will be a good 3/4 seasons before we can truly compete again. This isn't a criticism of Arsene - he is the best manager we've ever had - but until we can compete with the big boys then we will be second best (or should that be 4th best?) The point is, we will need a miracle to win the league this season. Put everything in perspective. Arsene might have you believe that we don't need to spend to win things but that theory is hugely flawed. Why do Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, AC Milan, Inter Milan and even Bayern Munich spend big money? It isn't rocket science, you play top prices for a reason - because they are the best players and the best players win titles. I'm not saying we should bankrupt the club to win things but to expect success with this current model is incredibly naive. It's never worked and it's never worked for a reason. We will win things, but not until our time. Ah, you poor Arsenal fans.

You have a good supporters attitude but sounds like you wouldn't know a football if it hit you in the head. blue interesting name, we won a trophy already, the emirates trophy.

What will you do then? Take back all the ills you said about Wengers way of leading? Claiming oh oh we didnt really doubt. " we cant win this year" "wenger is shit" whine whine whine! im so tired of listenint to you guys!. We are short in areas and we need this and that. Wenger wont buy overprised players. And i agree with him. He will buy what he sees fit to the squad or he wont buy at all. there is no point signing an average player just to fill a gap the supporters feel is missing. There is no point signing and using money on someone thats wont be good enough for this level just to sing someone. IF we sing the player has to be a VAST improvement of what we got. Or els it cant be justified to use so much money on them. IT seems like you all forget that.... It will be so fun to look at all the mopy IDIOTS when we win a trophy this year. What will you do then?

We should have no problems with a top four spot, might even do second place, but we're still short of quality in vital areas. The long season will tell all. I've no sinking feeling at all, but i know what this squad has done, and preseason friendlies are hardly a good indicator of standings at the end of the season. I think the author is just trying to say something about overall squad strength versus the others, no need for pessimism but i see his point.
