Arsene Wenger and the January transfer window

Listening to Arsene Wenger talk about the January transfer window one comes away with the distinct impression that he loathes it. He also loathes talking about potential transfers as well and would rather prefer to believe that his squad is on the verge of playing great football. To have to bring someone in [.

The necessity for taking advantage of the transfer window this January has always been obvious, however it has certainly never before been this requisite. A team lacking a defensive partner to match Cesc's guile, a defense looking for a dominant center back, and doubts surrounding Ade's commitment, Nasri's integration, and the injury woes of [.

Unfortunately, Arsenal Are Becoming a ‘Big Club’

Supporters of the idea that Arsenal are a big club have credible attributes to their theory. League Titles. The 'Invincibles.' World-Class players. A 60,000 seater stadium. Massive wage bill. Global audience. Typical attributes of a big club. Opponents will point to the departures of Flamini and Hleb, the lack of trophies since 2004, a team policy [.

Arsenal's Young Guns, who've flown so high this season, came crashing down to earth last night against a determined and well prepped Burnley side hungry to advance. What will frustrate the side most is that they created the opportunities to win the game but they were wasteful in front of goal and couldn't convert some very clearcut chances.

Arsenal need an interceptor, not an enforcer

Arsenal's indifferent form this season which has contributed to three loses already has been attributed to a lack of a defensive midfield enforcer; someone who looks to tackle the ball in restart play. With Flamini and Gilberto gone, Denilson and Song occupy their places. However watching the Arsenal youngsters defeat Wigan in the Carling Cup without [.

This weekend's game against Middlesborough is important and the Gunners need to play with the same steel they seem to reserve for the elite teams of the Premier League. It can be argued that our results against Middlesborough last season cost us the title. Last December we lost our first Premier League game [.

Watching the Gunners play this season has been pure agony. Gone are the free flowing attacking displays. What we have now we saw yesterday against Middlesbrough, a tortured and flawed performance from a team flirting with mediocrity. You don't see Arsenal players smile anymore, well ... they do if they happen to score.

One of Arsene Wenger's biggest headaches is finding enough games for his players to play. First team games are usually divided amongst the top sixteen players, meaning the rest of the squad have to make do with the meagre reserve squad schedule. The problem is exacerbated by the rise of the young guns [.

When Zat Knight rifled in a ninety-second minute equaliser I was left screaming.  Standing up with TV remote in hand, I pondered throwing it against the wall, before choosing to wing in it into the safer option of the sofa.  There was an overwhelming and painful sense of Deja-Vu that every Arsenal fan [.
