Wenger Knows......What? by BN

After yesterday's dire performance, yet another one this season, for me it's time for change, I want Arsene out.

You must question his motivational skills for the team to continually start games as slow as we do . We need to get into teams from the first whistle put them under pressure make them scared to come to the Emirates, but we tap the ball around from side to side with no threat or penetration and allow visiting teams to settle their nerves and enjoy their surroundings.

Observations on Arsenal’s Asian Trip

First off, let me say I am most encouraged by the way everyone went for goal. Wenger always says he likes everyone in his team to score, and it seems they are really taking it to heart. Is it just for pre season, or is it really a new attitude?  I hope it continues into the regular season. I sometimes wonder if our guys are a little gun- shy, because we think everything has to go through van Persie.

Youth + Wenger-Gems + Established Quality Players =

The All-Conquering Formula! (But we need to hold on to our players....).

We at the Academy, feel that Arsene could have given some of the kids a chance and maybe put them on the bench and given them a run-out, especially in games where you're winning 3-0, but I also understand he has to get results and he's super-cautious.

Rodgers Urges Patience

Anfield Talk at related • 0 views
Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers believes his players need to be more patient at the top end of the field if they are to overcome their goalscoring problems.
The Reds have found the net just twice in three Premier League matches - both goals coming in the 2-2 draw with champions Manchester City.
Their problem has been compounded by the limited options Rodgers has up front, having sent Andy Carroll on loan to West Ham and failed to bring in a replacement after a deadline-day move for Clint Dempsey broke down.

As Liverpool fans, we're pretty used to promises that are never quite fulfilled. Take Rafael Benitez's top four pledge in 2010 and the ongoing stadium saga to name just a few.

Former Liverpool boss, Kenny Dalglish has praised his record British signing, Andy Carroll in his Column in The Mirror. Carroll was the sword on which King Kenny fell from the helm at Anfield. After he and Damien Comolli splashed a record £35 million on the young Geordie, Liverpool were left floundering in 8th in the Premier League, with the big man only scoring 9 goals all Season for Liverpool, 4 in the League and 5 in the Cups, a dismal return for a forward who struggled in front of goal for most of the term.
