Daily Mail, but wouldn't be surprised at this. Wenger caning the players at the training ground. Shame no one in that squad would dish out home truths like Keown and Parlour did to Wenger. |

Of course he ripped into them he is going to miss his target and extra money for the board.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger who has celebrated 19 years in charge at the Gunners, says defender Laurent Koscielny is set to be out for three weeks after picking up a hamstring injury against Olympiakos in the Champions League.
Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini are also still out. |

Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini are also still out. Woeful management that we didn't get anyone in either this or other windows. It's painful to see the likes of Khedira, Morata and Higuain do so well at other clubs when a deal with us was there to be done. We're now dangerously short in defense, having to rely on Coq and Chambers against ManU, with no notable cover on the bench. Gabriel's good but not sure about the pairing with Merts at all. Kos is key and now out for god knows how long! 3 weeks in Arsene years is a long time! ODL needs to go. Squad is bare and disjointed amd he's to blame. Only results and silverware can paper the cracks and I'd like nothing more than to be proved wrong. Can't see it happening though... |

2 of the 3 weeks are an International Break.

Andy Burton is one journo who isn't afraid to ask the questions that needs answering. |

Not saying he's wrong but Mourhino's is being a total d1ck at present. I'd rather ignore him and concentrate on the other stuff of which there's plenty to ask.

Mourinho is a dick, but I hope he keeps it up because it really riles Wenger and he needs to be. It has been too cosy for him for a long time now. There is absolutely no pressure on him to make progress in the League or CL.

I think it's great that the press and Mourinho are winding him up. He needs to realise that he isn't the only man who can manage Arsenal, and if he fails he'll be replaced.
Fergie got to the point where nobody questioned his loses or his team selections either. Wenger has also reached it, which is terrible. Hopefully if people keep badgering him he'll change his ways. But I doubt it. |

I doubt if anything will change. He's felt the heat before, remember the "why are you looking at me" press conference? It blows over eventually and we're still left with him.

The only reason Mourinho is doing this at the moment is to attempt to divert the media away from how crap his lot have been this season. He's not doing it because he believes any of it...Wenger is just a convenient scapegoat at the moment
On a separate note, Chelsea are being torn apart by Southampton. It's so annoying that we didn't get anything from the Bridge. |

Really don't know which Arsenal will turn up tomorrow. Will we play with the handbrake on? I'll go for a draw!

Contrast Southampton's performance tonight to ours. They were spirited, organised, clinical and determined. Everything we are not these days.

Don't disagree with any of this. I still hope he keeps it up. It is stunning arrogance to finish 10+ points of the top of the Premier League to routinely not make the latter stages of the CL and to only invest in ageing goalkeeper with exactly the same tactics as before.
