Wenger has a habbit of getting out of holes but lets be honest. Coming secound in a season where all the big clubs have flopped. We were 10 points from a side 5000-1 to win the Prem league. Last 16 again in the CL and we won today to a team that had already gone down.
I think we are lucky to get 2nd.

Agree. We were gash all season, I have absolutely no idea how we finished in 2nd. A get out of jail card for Arsene, not that he needs one as he's untouchable.
Still that's for another day - let's just enjoy yet another St Totts

Indeed. To be fair as we beat Leicester twice we're the Virtual Champions!
I haven't stopping laughing yet. I liked the comment from someone on their thread that they 'managed to come third in a two horse race!'.
No snide comments from Andy B in our thread tonight I notice

Funny that - he's probably too busy crying into his boots with the rest of the Totts fans. Potch out indeed.
Le Virtual Trophy is ours!
Even Bendtner is taking the piss http://www.goal.com/en/news/1862/pre...e-second-place
How funny was that?
The general consensus among their fans was, "Disappointing to lose the league to Leicester. But at least we'll finish above Arsenal."
Erm... how's that going for you?
In the year that spuds last finished above us:
Nick Leeson was arrested in Singapore for his role in the collapse of Barings Bank
The Schengen agreement (free cross border travel in Europe) goes into place in some countries.
John Major wins his battle to remain as leader of the Conservative Party
The O.J Simpson trial.
The Bosman Ruling comes into place.
Microsoft releases the much awaited Windows 95
Suck it up, losers.

As good as it is to finish above them, let's not kid ourselves. Our title challenge was pathetic. TH were the ones that pushed Leicester City. We ended up with less points than last season. It's been a bizarre season. Wenger knows it's a massive opportunity missed and I am not sure we will have a better chance for a good while. Plenty of work for the manager in the summer unlike last year!
Well we will lose three midfielders in Arteta, Rosicky and Flamini. My guess is he will replace at least one of those with Jeff Reine-Adelaide. We also have Jon Toral comeing back from a decent loan season at Birmingham, and Danny Crowley from Barnsley - although I don't think he's quite ready yet. Toral definitely is though, and should be given a chance.
Isaac Hayden has had a good year with Hull, and he may be in contention to provide defensive cover. Akpom has also been up there, and had a mixed season. The strangest one has been Gedion Zelalem, who set the Scottish Championship on fire for the first few months of the season, then suffered a slight knock, and has not been able to get anywhere near that form back. He is definitely too immature yet, and should be sent on loan again.
Wellington Silva is another who has had an inconsistent season with Bolton, and doesn't look like a top rate player at all at the moment. Same goes for Maitland-Niles, on loan at Ipswich. I think both should be sold.
Of the first team players that we have, I'd like to see some shifted out permanently:
Szczesny (loose cannon. Not good enough)
Oxlaide-Chamberlain (Still no more than a good prospect - at 23. Inconsistent. Injury-prone)
Walcott (Not good enough)
Campbell (Tries hard. Not good enough)
Debuchy (Lost his place. Won't get back in the team)
Sanogo (Hasn't worked out. Not good enough)

I certainly hope that Arteta, Risocky and Flam will be replaced by two 'proper' signings and that the youth/2nd team players that you mention are not considered for the 1st team. I dread to think what would happen if we have to rely on loan players with experience at Bolton, Burnley, Barnsley, Hull and Rangers...
Agree with your list of players to be shifted out though, but I'd like one of Walcott or Ox to stay.
Interestingly, Van Der Wiel is now a free agent and he'd be a great option for the RB position, but whether he'd agree to join as 'back up', or risk 'killing off' Bellerin is difficult. As you say, Debuchy would need shifted anyway before ODL will think of getting cover there. It would show ambition though and get us quality back up there and he'd be cheap (in terms of potential transfer fee anyway).
Time to show proper ambition and push the boat out for quality signings, ideally one in each central position. They'll all get playing time on account of our busy schedule and terrible injury record anyway.

I hate to say it but Spurs have been good to watch this season with possibly 5 of there players going to the euros with england. I am gutted for Danny Wellbeck.
very sad to see the end of Arteta and Rosicky as really respect and like them both. Arteta gave a painfully honest interview too in which he said he knew he was no longer good enough for Arsenal so was moving into coaching, and that we should have won the league this season. No excuses etc. Great bloke. As far as I'm concerned, that was his goal not an o.g!
Rosicky was a hell of a player before injury robbed us of him.
They are going to be tough to replace, for different reasons. I can't see anyone from the youth set up that is good enough right now.

Walcott will want out now he's not in the squad for the euro's. Wenger will offload. It's the best for both player and the club. He's never going to be a regular starter under Wenger.
Spurs fans on their pages finding some crumbs of comfort that Arsenal finishing 2nd means Wenger more likely to be offered a new contract. Bless
Wenger says Giroud will be first-choice striker next season. Sigh.

Do you think Theo Walcott has been unlucky to miss out on the England for the Euros, or has he just not been good enough
And do you think Walcott has improved as a player at Arsenal, or has he gone backwards

He hasn't been good enough, I didn't expect him to get in and I'm glad he didn't.
I wouldn't say he's gone backwards as such, he's just always been 'promising' and never actually gone to the next level. I think he needs to be sold.

Wenger lies all the time around transfer time. We are looking for a striker no point letting the selling team think we are desperate. Giroud may be sold if a offer came in. Well i think maybe not now that DW is out.

Theo is deffo off. If he wants to go to the WC than he needs to leave.

Echoing the thoughts of others on here, he hasn't done anything to deserve the England call up. He can't expect to waltz into the team on previous endeavours, although he usually plays better for England than he does for Arsenal.
I don't think he's gone backwards, he's just stagnating with us, maybe he will do better elsewhere.
