Did Wenger LIE to the Arsenal fans AGAIN?

A few weeks ago the Arsenal king of spin Arsene Wenger said that he wanted to bring in a frontman to cover a couple of key injuries.

At the time i said on the forum that Wenger was useing this to get the best out of Eduardo and was not going to sign a striker. Then Wenger came out and said “I want to buy as soon as possible” and” I will spend my money responsibly” I again said that this was bullshit and within the next few weeks Wenger would come out and say that the return of injuryed players would be like NEW signings..and not for the first time, He “DID”

Not the first time we have seen this from Wenger over the years. and not the first time he has lied to the fans and mugged us off.

Why come out with all this bollocks on Arsenal.com and get the fans hopes up about new signings only to let us down? I do wish Wenger would just keep his gob shut and stop coming out with all this crap.

Over the years he has said things like ” I will sign 2 world class players, ” The Arsenal fans will be reassured by the new signings” I will sign BIG players”…Etc etc etc.

And everytime we are let down.

And NOW Wenger who recently told the world that he was looking at Chris Smalling has missed out on yet another player. Why did he say anything about Smalling anyway? … by doing so he told other clubs who might have been looking at Smalling that we were looking at him and there might be a chance we could missed out on him.

And Man Utd showed Arsenal hows its done. In 2 days they had a bid accepted and the player signed.

Unlike Arsenal who seem to take 5/6 weeks to sign a player and get the deal done but trying to get him as cheap as possible. and run the risk of missing out, Just like we did with Alonso, and how we almost missed out on Arshavin.

Well… Yet again a transfer window has come and gone and Arsenal do nothing. Like i have said loads of times, Arsenal care about one thing and thats profit.

We are in a fantastic place to win the league and by investing some of that £30m from the sales of Adebayor and Toure on much needed replacements for Song and RVP we might have gone on and won the league.

Now I just fear that the next 4 games will put an end to that and our season.

But who cares, At the end of the day the club will be happy with the profit and the “in wenger we trust crew” will tell us that Wenger did a great job. But the sad fact is that this season we had a real chance of winning something for the first time since 2005 and all we needed was 2 players and our manager to spend some of that profit.But yet again Wenger has shown how stubborn he is… I just hope that come the end of THIS season you will all see what I see.

Arsenal care about one thing and thats not winning things, its about making money and Wenger is treating my club as his own project. This club is now a farm. We sign players with only one thing in mind, to sell them on for a profit.

Why? Dont we spend good money at Arsenal? Why dont we get the big signings like Torres etc?

Maybe thats why you are now seeing so many empty seats at Arsenal. People have had enough of this and i cant blame them.

Sinbad.

January 27, 2010 at 6:19 pm

That sums it all up… The way Adebayor and Toure went without being replaced and Flamini, Diarra and Gilberto.

Now he has started to sign players like Silvestre and Campbell on the cheap. Im sick of it

As football fans we are primarily interested in what is placed in the trophy cabinet.

The current peril at Scum Utd highlights the danger of not managing your off-the-field activities.

Personally, it is my belief that Wenger’s Legacy will supercede honours won and in years/decades/centuries to come he will be revered as a revolutionary for the principles he established at AFC.

Yes we have not won a trophy for X years and yes fans are growing disillusioned but some perspective please.

Football has been around for over 100+ years and in that time Liverpool and Scum Utd have achieved 18 league titles with us trailing by 5. That suggests that EVERY club will experience more lows than highs. One thing which every club will not do is go a season unbeaten, a feat my grandchildren will be in awe of. The current crop of Arsenal fans have experienced the greatest Arsenal teams assembled in the last 10-15 years and yet rather than revel in it choose to b*tch. Maybe if we didn’t have such fickle fans such as the author of this article than matchdays atmosphere may resemble a football game as opposed to the library

I can see where this sinbad guy’s frustration is coming from, I mean we are the best footballing side in the country and possibly top 3 in europe, if we jus added two or three players to our arsenal, we will be running away with everything, we could have even had the title tied up long time ago, its jus frustrating that when we are doing well like we are now, there always seems to be something missing like now its good defensive cover and a good striker plus a holding player to push song hard for his place and to top it off a keeper that can put us all at ease..

I mean i was so pissed off to hear Shay GIVEN (top two keeper in england) was upset he didnt come to ARSENAL, you cant be missing out on world class like that when it is begging to come to you.
Hambi says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:44 pm

Didn’t get the toy you wanted for xmas? Poor little you.

Think all true Arsenal fans should stop visiting this blog. Poorly written, inaccurate and immature. Surely, if Sinbad had been hired to write on this blog, he would be the one who was fired by now.

Without Wenger’s transfer market dealings, we would have been a mid table team for the last 13 years, like Everton and like we were for the last of the Graham years.

Look at the spuds. Similar size club, similar location, similar support. Remember the contrast in fortunes over the last 13 years before you spout crap.

Boycott this pathetic excuse for a supporter.

January 27, 2010 at 6:44 pm

maybe it’s a bit OTT, but fella has a point – I mean, c’mon: we are sitting on piles of cash, yet we have to watch Denilson doing a square peg round hole routine…

don’t get me wrong: I like him, but he is simply not suited to a DM position – lightweight and slow as fuck…

good shot, nothing else, a bit of a luxury player…

club of our stature should challenge for all four trophies, not throw games against Shitty or – worst of it all – fucking Stoke…
bergy says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:48 pm

Actually he has signed players! Campbell is experienced and quality. Signing young player who none of us has heard of is what Wenger does best. I can mention Vermaelen, Song, Toure, Sagna, fabregas, Ljungberg and Vieira.
Jose Reyes says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:48 pm

JJ, you are an idiot. who do u think you are? Denilson is in contention for a place in the Brazilian side during the World Cup. You think a shit player could make that team. Think before you post you dumb ass.
anandamide says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:48 pm

God you’re a wanker. How is it a lie to say “I want to buy” then not buy? It meant if the right player became available at the right price he’d do it. If not, he wouldn’t.

I have to remember not to come to this site and get annoyed by your childish sense of entitlement. Get a life.
Jose Reyes says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:52 pm

Stonroy, first of all, Ribery is old and overrated. He would never fit in at Arsenal and you just need to accept that. I admit we should have done better with Xabi, he would be a good signing. And Chamakh will be free in the morning. And if you haven’t noticed already, Smalling has signed nothing with Man U and it Arsenal matched their bid and maybe went higher. Now it is up to Smalling, an arsenal fan. Please stop making such stupid posts and just start actually supporting Arsenal.

GOONERS!!
Yankee Guner says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:53 pm

Consider this for a minute, we are not entitled to win the league. We are not entitled to win any trophy at all. We don’t have Chelseas money or Manchester city’s money. By running the club responsibly, arsene has ensured us a future that is successful. We continue to compete for trophies every year. Would you rather wind up like Portsmouth or like Leeds United were like Crystal Palace or possibly even Manchester United? Look at Liverpool, Benitez spends his money and where has that gotten them? Sometimes signing a new player isn’t the answer. Arsene has done a great job signing good players. Vermaelen and Arshavin are probably the two best signings of last two seasons and they both play for Arsenal. So before you start spending someone else’s money and willingly bankrupt the club we all love, consider where we are today, consider that it’s been done responsibly, and realize that we have a future because of the man you seem to hate

sadly arsenal tom and sinbad you spot on this clubs only concern is profit if they bought a couple of world class players we would win everthing going but they never do -cambel and sylvest for nothing great additions-just hope things change for the true fans like you -not those blind idiots that think wenger is god—goodluck guys-from canadian expats club.——p.s keep it going sinbad great writing.

Gooner4life&beyond says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:56 pm

Who cares about big name signings? I just want the club to make signings when they are required and for Wenger to stop saying he is looking to sign someone when he really isn’t.

Everything else is great, this is a great club with no problems. I just dislike the ‘spin’ we are given at times.
anandamide says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:56 pm

ok Mr. Clever, maybe you can explain what he’s using us as a pawn FOR? What would be his motivation? His job is secure at Arsenal, so he doesn’t need to use you as leverage for the board. And if Arsenal were stupid enough to get rid of him he could get a job at any club in the world and not deal with whiny bitches like you and Sinbad. Would you like to explain what he stands to gain by using a turd like you as a pawn? I thought not….

Jon says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:57 pm

Arsene never promised any signings. He never has and he never will, because he isn’t an idiot. He’ll look, sure, but he’ll look for the right player at the right price. He’s not going to go off and buy someone from Grimsby just so that he can say “look, I’ve bought a striker!” Equally, he’s not going to go off and spend £35 million on Villa, because Arsenal are and always have been fiscally responsible unlike Citeh and the chavs. You’ve been promised nothing and, frankly, with your attitude, you deserve less. That we’re only on any sort of level footing with the rest of the top 4/5 is only down to Wenger and his prudent decision making. We would be nowhere without him and the stupidity that people like you spout beggars all belief.
nj says:

January 27, 2010 at 6:58 pm

sinbad i agree 100% with you, we aint winning nothing without a good keeper and a striker, wenger does talk shit and if he kept quiet then the fans wouldnt complain but coming out with shit every press conference has pissed me off, i am arsenal through and through and go to all the games and buy the merchandise but wenger has to stop lying i dont care if i get slated by fellow fans , we are lucky to be where we are in the league, there are palyers out there that can make the difference but in my opinion almunia,denilson,diaby,eduardo,bendtner aint worthy of wearing the arsenal jersey…… we aint winning fuck all this season whilst colney creche is in operation.
Jose Reyes says:

SAME OLD TOM, SHIT SUPPORTER!

what the fuck is wrong with all of you? u say u support this club but then u just critisize it everychance you get. Arsene Wenger transfer descions: got rid of Adebayor (fucking cunt was shit and obsseded with money), and toure who was old and couldn’t defend anymore and replaced him with Vermalen (him and gallas are one of the best center back pairs in the premier league), has recently gotten sagna, nasri, arshavin, eduardo (he is class. he just needs time. I wanna see you break you ankle that badly and then return within 20 games at most and be at your best again and be able to score goals fucking cunt). SO SHUT THE FUCK UP PLEASE AND JUST GET ON WITH IT AND SUPPORT THE TEAM YOU CLAIM THAT YOU SUPPORT.

Is that the same same Arsene Wenger that has us playing the best football ever witnessed at Arsenal, brought us thru a season unbeaten and built us the finest stadium in the uk

Won us countless trophies whilst keeping us financially stable whilst big clubs colapse around us

I think your the mug mate

Oh My God! AKB’s everywhere…… Its Arsenal FC not Arsene FC ….

I have supported Arsenal over 30 years, i feel i have room to comment.

I agree he does spout the same old crap every season “super super players”… funny how its always around season ticket renewell time…

I think your post actually says what i lot of us feel.

Well the Arsenal supporters, Arsene supporters have a very old tiresome “in trust” approach.

Keep up the good work….
SUGA3 says:

you lot are blind, simple as – is throwing cup games good enough?

‘we have injuries’ – well, it’s probably because our players, as brilliant as they are, are not suited to kicking dished out in this league week in week out…

who’s at fault? yep, you’ve guessed it…
The Fucker says:

more hysterical bleating from some twat masquerading as a Gooner, but clearly would love it if we spent millions on every cunt the red tops link us to or some cunt of an agent up to his pimping to get his commission. If you think the Boss is lying, do something about it, my preference would be you fuck off with all the other whingers and support chavski, manciteh, or some other shitsack club who don’t have the luxury of some tosser looking to buy a vanity project and are leveraged up to their balls. If you’re a season ticket holder, don’t renew it come July, let somebody else have a chance to watch, but I suspect you’re very far from being one.
highberries says:

January 27, 2010 at 7:09 pm

I would argue that he has made 3 fairly recent major signings which have all slotted into the team incredibly well without any fuss. I wouldn’t presume as an Arsenal fan that Wenger is actually talking to me when he is taking about signings. His priority is to keep the media and opposition guessing and keep the pressure off the team. So chill, I reckon and be happy we have a manager who thinks about the long term welfare of our club and who doesn’t go around buying a whole bunch of over rated players, in the hope of getting one good one and upsetting the balance of the team in the progress.

TOP OF THE LEAGUE IF WE WIN TONIGHT!!!! and you are still whining like my 6 year old when he doesn’t get a packet of sweets. Dzeko is about the only player i think would be worth buying. Huntlaar cant score for toffee at the moment….Bendtner looked great before getting injured….why buy and waste money when there is no benefit to spending it…….People like you will only be happy when we have spent stupid ammounts of money and are in the same position as Portsmouth…..you’ll soon moan when your season ticket goes up in price……thats if you ever been…proper mug!

While being a little negative, this actually a good post. I’m not sure if Wenger is stuborn, I would say ARROGANT is a better description. True, he has again promised and not delivered. Fo those of you who have said you have been fans for years have you got your heads so far up your Arses that you can’t remember him promising World Class players and not delivering. This was long before Andrey and Eddy. Being a fan does not mean you have to agree with everything your club does! You leemings!!!!!

genius hit-gathering and such a simple approach – look you’ve even fooled me!
Just to say it simple, of course Arsene Wenger doesn’t tell the truth – he does what he thinks is best for the club because he knows it’s all about performances and results not necessarily in that order
You’re in a lazy possibly neurotic (if I’m being genraous)position of criticising during the season and then if they fail you can say I’m right, if they get close you can say I’m right and if they win you can say that’s all I ever wanted, i’m a real fan honest, I’m very happy to eat my bile and spew

January 27, 2010 at 7:55 pm

Buying players doesn’t equal success…look at Leeds Utd a few years back, look at Liverpool now. I’ve been going to Arsenal for the last 16 years and I’ve been lucky enough to see the changes at Arsenal since Wenger took over. I admire the man and his philosophy, he’s worked wonders at the club and I hope he sticks around to see this team develop the enormous potential it possesses. Why buy quick fixes which will stem the young players development….we’ve already got a massive squad full of quality (Silvestre and probably Fabianski aside); GK Almunia, Fabianski, Mannone; DF Sagna, Eboue, Gallas, Djourou, Vermaelen, Campbell, Silvestre, Gibbs, Clichy, Traore; MF Fabregas, Denilson, Diaby, Ramsay, Wilshire, Song, Eastmond, Rosicky, Nasri; A Van Persie, Bendtner, Arshavin, Walcott, Eduardo, Vela……..plus all the promising kids. Surely you can’t want more!!!
The Fucker says:

January 27, 2010 at 8:01 pm

the only spot this article hits is the spot on the end of Sinbad’s arse.

it’s cunts like you who come out of the woodwork in the hope that we’ll have a shit run so that your arse about face points of view can be validated. I bet if we did win the League, you wouldn’t be happy because you wouldn’t have anything to moan about.
adam says:

January 27, 2010 at 8:03 pm

Just think if you were a Spurs fan with all the dealings and money they have wasted over the last few years. Would you still be happy? I don’t think so. The club is following a business plan drawn up with the building of the Emirates. In five years with all the short terms loans out of the way and the delayed building program underway and sold, the club will be in an extremely healthy position and an envy of others. All the major players are on long term deals and if he can add quality AW will. Its all about patience through thick and thin.
Sinbad you do yourself and this site no favours
Lemmings 2 says:

January 27, 2010 at 8:07 pm

Suga 3, Mark, et al, fuck off and support chelscum/Manure/Spuds etc. Why don’t you back up your ludicrous accusations with proof? Surely it can’t be that hard to Google what Arsene has said in the past about bringing in signings? I don’t recall him saying he would bring in ‘world class players’ without adding caveats to qualify such statements, but prove us ‘lemmings’ wrong. Looking forward to reading your ‘evidence’, pricks.
paulie says:

January 27, 2010 at 8:47 pm

I agree completely with the post. Arsene is a proven liar. Only fools listen to this company man anymore. The mans a genius at bullshit and spin. Just reading through some of your replies says it all. The man has managed to kill all ambition in a lot of fans and make them happy with 4th every year. Its amazing how hes managed to do this but I suppose hes collecting 5 million a year for a reason because it sure as hell aint for winning trophies. One last point, this is a guy who wont pay the going rate for new sighnings yet somehow has no objections to being the highest paid manager in england eventhough he wins nothing nowadays.
johnny boy says:

January 27, 2010 at 9:03 pm

some of you arsene knows brigade make the majority of us sick. Fact is Wenger is a liar. If you dont like what the majority say then please feel free to f, uc k off to another site. theres no shortage of “lick Arsenes hole” sites around so you know what to do, lets not keep you, jog on losers

Did Wenger LIE to the Arsenal fans AGAIN?
