By Walter Broeckx We know that one of the things that some part of the fans throw at Wenger is the fact that he can't organise a defence. And that he is stubborn. And then they come up with the fact that he needs to get a defensive coach. Because of his stubbornness he doesn't [...]

Arsenal have opened Pandora's Box Don McMahon Following the departure of Cesc Fabregas for a derisory sum of around 30M Euro after add-ons, with Barca's mocking confirmation that they robbed us, and with the sale of Samir Nasri to City for 25M sterling, there were innumerable cries of outrage and dismay from the British media,punditry [.

Untold Arsenal on Twitter @UntoldArsenal By Tony Attwood The fact that Liverpool managed to scramble out of the mire, and Barca, having famously run out of cash so they couldn't pay the players, are still there buying the likes of Cesc etc makes some people think that there is no crisis.

Untold Arsenal on Twitter @UntoldArsenal . By Rob Lackey . So Arsenal are dammed to finish outside the top 4 and we should not have wasted our time and money on youngsters like AOC, Miyachi, Jenkinson, and the pursuit of Campbell – when we should have been pursuing the worlds best established players.

By Tony Attwood Last year, as we all know, Barca effectively went bust and in June were unable to pay their players. This year, equally famously, they have said they are saving money by stopping colour photocopying. So how can they spend £30m or more on Cesc? The answer is that Barca will more than [.
