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.

Oh good, Eduardo is gone now. The good news is that he’ll be like a new signing when he comes back in March/April

I think Vermaelen went off injured as well. I wonder if they get a signing on fee when they come back from injury.

On the brightside Man U are probably going to be playing extra time.

Did you expect anything less??? Wenger lied AGAIN…WOW..what ***%*$* surprise!
I knew this from the getgo…NO-NEW-PLAYERS!
Wenger is too fuc**** stingy! Money talks..and Arsenal/Wenger walks..away.

Wenger must sideline Eduardo! When was the last time Eduardo hit the target!? I can’t remember…

Read this blog a few times but seeing the number of comments actually supporting you this time makes me worry. So being in the knockout stages of the champions league and a fighting chance of the premiership playing the best football in the country at the best ground in the country at the most profitable club in the country makes you want to write absolute nonsense?

It’s people like you I always seem to have the pleasure of sitting next to at the emirates, i.e. sitting their silently unless your complaining about how we’re not scoring more goals despite being 2-0 in a champions league game…

I have no doubt that Arsene would have signed a top name striker and spent lots of money if the right player become available much like he did with Vermalean, Nasri and Arshavin but the right player has not become available yet. Any fans who think that Arsene should lose his job at the end of this year if we don’t win any silverware should just go and find another club to support- no club is in a better position than Arsenal right now (without a billionaire owner) and thats largely down to Arsene and the way the club has been managed by the board.. End rant

January 27, 2010 at 9:57 pm

Sinbad,

You are absolutely spot on. You will be derided by the sleeping masses.

I dont know why arsenal fans are so stupid and gullable. Wenger obviously knows this and takes full advantage,.
Danish Gooner says:

January 27, 2010 at 9:59 pm

Failing once again against a piss poor defensive Villa side.When is this so called Uber team gonna put on a showing against any decent side.If we play like this against United Rooney is gonna tear Wenger a new Arsehole.
BigL says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:00 pm

whats worse is the players themselves are saying that we are one or two players short. It must affect their morale as well.

how long before Cesc decides that he wants to go to Barca to have a crack at winning something?
Drew says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:01 pm

caught with your pants down there JB..

not saying the post is fair to Wenger, but take away all the harsh emotion from the piece and Sinbad makes valid points

Man Utd do not waste time, they go in put in a fair bid and get their man.. bottom line is they won the last 3 premierships and a European cup because of Ronaldo, we were first to bid for Ronaldo, under bid and lost the man.. Man Utd came in with a good price, rode on his back for three titles in a row and then flogged him off for a hefty profit.. now wayne is taking over for that lot over there, another import..

Arsene needs to get a striker asap.. Looks like Eduardo might have done his hamstring in..
Cesc Fabregas says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:09 pm

I am sick of carrying this One Man Team. I am off to a team that is capable of winning things. Adios.
Alan says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:14 pm

Once again it’s that lack of killer instinct. It was summed up perfectly when Fabregas chance came back off the post and Ramsey and Rosicky got themselves in a mess.
When Liverpool played there last month they were piss poor but one chance fell to their world class striker and they got the 3 points. Eduardo could have been there until tomorrow morning and he wouldn’t have got a sniff.

Does anyone ever make a fucking tackle in training at Colney. Seriously, what how many times O’Driscoll has to come racing onto the pitch to treat Arsenal players during a match. We are a bunch of fucking weasels. Nobody can take a tackle.
sosolid007 says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:25 pm

sorry not u i agree with u
mo says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:26 pm

guys i am sorry kind of agree. i can understand y wenger does not spend big, to keep arsenal financialy safe, however i think wenger has too much faith in some of the players. denilson & almunia, i doubt denilson could get into another top side, same with almunia. i watched the villa game today. wenger is always going on how we have enough strikers, however we dont have different varietys, bendtner has only come back so we cant expect him to just starting scoring goals for fun. we seriously do need a big tough striker cos we cannot keep relying on the rest of the team to score goals, i understand its a team game but its the strikers job to score majority of the goals and that aint happening. i love arsenal, i love wenger, i love what the club is about but i wouldve really liked it if we went and brought 2 quality players, i dont know y i cant see us winning the league this season, we will come 2nd or 2rd but not 1st am afraid. i really think this is a chance wasted, maybe i will be proven wrong, i certainly hope so….otherwise looks like its another season of what ifs and maybes…

Ricky says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:49 pm

We’re going TOP tonight. Do you get that? TOP OF THE LEAGUE!

Don’t think we will!!

We have no fighting spirit, we cannot just turn up and win!!!

Chelsea were desperate to get the ball back every time they lost it and kept fighting till the end, where is our fughting spirit???
BigL says:

January 27, 2010 at 10:55 pm

where are all the arsene fanatics? surely they should be here telling us we were unlucky and how we are going to be beat Man U and Chelsea.

oh and win the champions league.
Herbie says:

January 27, 2010 at 11:27 pm

So then – Silvestre our only CB back up now…
Vela – our only CF back up now… (I’m discounting Walcott as he’s never played him there yet)
AW – the boy loves a gamble doesn’t he??
Yes – he’s the best we’ve ever had but no – he doesn’t learn from his mistakes does he..
Smalling – turns out that if TV is out for season was a lucky miss out on but only if he buys ready made experience..
We cannot (I repeat cannot) keep waiting on future development in key positions… The mistake has been made in letting the following go too early:-
Sidwell, Upson, Flamini, Manninger… Think back to the confidence given to those boys in comparison to the patience afforded Denilson, Almunia and Djourou FFS
Dudu has earned his, AA needs to crank it up and soon – and please Clichy come back with a defensive head on at last.. Up top we have a team of crocks.. RVP – never completed a season with much more than 50% games played – Nicki B – not disimilar but nowhere near the same class.. Theo – wetter than my daughters bed – Carlos – about as solid as a fajita loaded with sour cream.. Dudu (best wishes mate)..
catch my drift…

tool…
SUGA3 says:

January 27, 2010 at 11:39 pm

it’s not about entitlement, it’s about realistically challenging for trophies, not selecting ones to take seriously…

what do you have to say about Denilson after another woeful performance? if our scouts are unable to come up with anything better, they should be sacked, the lot of them…

‘it’s not winning, it’s taking part’ – pathetic loser talk…

what is this, paralympics or multi-million professional sport venture?

ever been to a game and paid the highest ticket price in Europe? thought not…

A W has to go

gary Linneker thinks he’s a genius. he said so a couple of days ago. Since then AW took a dive in the FA cup

Arsenal is a sausage factory for the benfit of the shareholders. Buy cheap from Africa of somewhere, and sell high, adding money into the pockets of the directors, at least one of whom live outside the country

It’s no longer a football club. It’s a corporation
Singaporean Gunner says:

January 28, 2010 at 2:21 am

If we’d bought Ronaldo or Rooney, we’d have won the league a couple of times already…

AND we would be able to sell them off much more than we would have paid for them > Much more profits!!!

So, we should buy Top Talents (like Torres, about 30 million pounds then), then sell to e.g. Man C for 100 million pounds.

AW has no foresight…. ALAS.

Top talents will become super-class under him…. he should buy top top talents… Be far-sighted!

slim jim says:

January 28, 2010 at 2:59 am

First this is a rubbish site you need some help with it.Second i think we have done ok with all the injuries we have had.Third we have sighned some players of the future Wellington for a start.Id much rather see my club in the CL.This club plays some of the best football i have ever seen if that means we will not always win things so be it you sound like a Man Utd glory hunter.Football is a win draw or lose game,we are not in financial trouble.Praise be the art of football.
goognergerry says:

January 28, 2010 at 3:38 am

Whats new? None of it. We have had the same weaknesses for the past 3 seasons and have hit the same wall we hit last year and the year before at the same time and are losing key players every game. Do not have any real basis for believing we could beat the Mancs or Chavs when it matters and win the premiership this year.- simply not capable of playing at the required intensity. So just relax and wait for the kids to grow up.

January 28, 2010 at 4:57 am

your a bitch. shut the fuck up. profit means club longeity. win the title 2009 or survivie in the premier league until 2090? shut your face you know nothing. arsenal are in the best financial position in the premier league moron. because arsene is smart. why pay 8 million for an unproved media fuelled hack. smalling is decent. not worth 8 mill. arsene bought vermaelen for around 10. do you think smallin compares in the slightest to vermaelen. your rubbish. stop comparing players price tag to their talent. vermalean is as good as any fullback in the world. just because arsene is smart and calculated doesnt mean he doesnt buy class players. Better…he gets class for cheap.

in conclusion…your a moron. shut your gob…moron
johnpt says:

January 28, 2010 at 8:35 am

WE are running out of players as Wenger has bought one in the Summer and sold 2 and lost one on a free transfer. He sells atleast one player every season in order to invest part of the proceedings. Our placing in the league reflects our lack of investment.We dont have any seasoned players with the exception of Fabercass, gallas, sagna, Vermaelen, & diaby who is also injury prone. With half a team we wont win anything as we not good enough to be in the top as the team lacks depth. Our strikers with the exception of Van persie are not good enough.Van Persie spends most of the time injured with Walcott, clichy,Djorov & Roisky keeping him company.

I love everything about this club, only those fans annoyed me. I love this club cause it doesnt spend like those stupid RM, Barcelona, Chelsea, Man City… Big player means big money, people are losing jobs, but it does not stop team like RM or others spending big, thats what i admire this club, and the great great manager, with the brilliant philosophy, and yet still the serious title contender. Would you really love it when him spending 40 mil for Dzeko, another 30 mil for a world class C/B, even we won a title or 2, its not the Arsenal I admire, its not the manager I believe in, I will be really dissapointed when one day wenger spending 25 mil on one player. And btw, lie is a word have intention to harm or hurt others, I truly believe even he say anything like big signing doesnt have the intention to lie! Just something not right at the moment or price again is the main concern. Big advice: If you like big signing, dont stay with Arsenal, cause that never going to happen, go to Man City or Chelsea or others, they are the team you admire!

January 28, 2010 at 9:56 am

Great post and spot on, I have followed Arsenal since 1973, and Wenger has given me some of the greatest moments in my life, he has also given me some heartache but overall the Arsenal team he has produced will always be remembered. some of our fans are fickle and embarrassing, our away support is ten times better than our home support who can be so pathetic.
looneygooner says:

January 28, 2010 at 10:03 am

Disagree he is only stating what a minority of Arsenal fans are saying, if it was the majority then our stadium would only be half -full every home game. I understand fan’s frustrations, but insulting each other…that’s the reason a lot of rival fans laugh at us because a few can be so fickle. We will come good, the Mancs are in deep shit, Liverpool the same, Citeh and Chelsea won’t always have a sugar daddy. it’s the same with watching tv if you don’t like it turn over or switch off, the same with Arsenal, no-one is forcing you to spend the money
looneygooner says:

January 28, 2010 at 10:10 am

Who is this majority everyone is going on about? I follow Arsenal, not Arsene, he has made mistakes and will probably make mistakes but he has brought this club up to a standard I never believed I would ever see, imagine how the Spurs fans feel now after all these years Wenger has been manager, that thought alone brings a smile to my face.Wenger has made this club bigger than anyone could have imagined. Without Wenger where would we have been today.And no I am not part of the AKB brigade, I have realised what he has done for ARSENAL and fans like me.
looneygooner says:

January 28, 2010 at 10:14 am

All clubs are corporations, football has been like this for years, it’s a money making business just like anything else, and who would you replace Wenger with?
Yes! says:

January 28, 2010 at 11:42 am

He didn’t say he was going to buy anyone, he said that he’ll be in the market.. There’s a difference you jerk
wenger says:

January 28, 2010 at 11:52 am

pussy.this is shit on paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did Wenger LIE to the Arsenal fans AGAIN?
