Wenger: We’re still…meh, blah, blah, blah

Arsene Wenger has reassured supporters that Arsenal will make signings before the end of the transfer window although he has refused to specify the number of new recruits he’s chasing.

Having so far only signed Yaya Sanogo to cover the gap left by the 30-odd departures from the club this summer, the boss belligerently swatted away suggestions that he spends his days at London Colney smoking pot and playing Playstation from the comfort of a beanbag.

“We are active,” he mumbled to Arsenal Player through mouthfuls of Doritos and peanut M&Ms.

“We are in a situation like Manchester United, like Chelsea [he said pointing to a stoned Moyes and hungover Mourinho] where everybody expects signings and at the moment not a lot has happened.

“There are 18 days to go, so that is a long time in the transfer market and we will be active.

“I cannot certify what the number [of players coming in will be] but we will be active until the end, that is for sure.”

Arsene, the mopey teenager.

It’s like he’s got an assignment due at school and he’s leaving it until the night before the deadline to do it having put it off for three months.

On releasing Gervinho, he added: “He was just a bit sh*t and in the end I couldn’t bear the sight of him.”

Arseblog News apologises, we started this article with good intentions but got bogged down the moment we read what Arsene actually said.

On the bright side, no major injuries. Right? Right? RIGHT?

lettraggad

Heh .. I worry more over Arsene refusing to mention if any of the promised transfers were INCOMING.

TomJ
Exiledgooner

Who needs new players when you’ve got new ordering systems for hospitality guests? Football is, like, so passé.

AnotherFineMess

I can’t begin to explain how angry reading this made me. So I wont..

Redondante

Interviewer: ‘Are you confident you’ll add to the squad?’ Arsene: ‘We will. We will.’

Is that not reason for optimism? This summer’s nowhere near as bad as 2011 – by this point Fabregas had gone, Nasri was leaving and only Jenkinson and Gervinho had come in. But we ended up getting Mertesacker and Arteta in the last 2 days of the window. If we sign 2 players who have as much influence in the next 2/3 years as they have done, things won’t be so bad.

MRN

Yeah but it’s all relative. If you directly compare this summer to that, yeah that was worse but there’s a feeling we’ve missed a trick here. We ended the season strongly, have a pretty good core of players and our best players aren’t in the last year of their contract. In 2011 things were out of our hands to some degree, this summer that’s not the case. A couple of players and I really think that we can compete but it’s looking less and less likely and with others strengthening significantly, this summer could potentially be more damaging than 2011.… Read more »

Redondante

I agree, if Arsenal sign no one we’ll have missed a trick. But the fact is, in spite of his reputation, there hasn’t been one season in 18 years that Wenger’s signed nobody significant, except 97/98 and we won the league that year. Look at the major signings of every year since then: 98 – Kanu and Ljungberg, 99 – Henry and Lauren, 00 – Pires and Wiltord, 01 – Campbell and Toure, 02 – Gilberto, 03 – van Persie, Fabregas, Reyes, 04 – Flamini, Eboue, 05 – Rosicky, Walcott, Adebayor, Diaby, Hleb, 06 – Eduardo, Gallas, Song, 07 –… Read more »

Glen Helders soul-glo

I’m sorry but Arshavin does not count as a significant signing.

In terms of value for money, Arshavin has been Wengers worst signing.

£15m transfer fee, almost £19m in wages.

He had the anfield 4 goals & Barcelona winner but not much else.

Henry's Almighty Tallywacker

Glen Helder you’re forgetting that without Arshavin we would have finished outside the CL spots. He saved our season and single handedly raped other teams after his second game, before tailing off.

TomJ

Yes, after getting spanked 8-2 by Manure. He also signed Park and Santos

Harsh

its a rare man who can stick to his optimism at a time like this, much less express it so easily and confidently…….
#Respect…

TomJ

Also take that very selective list Redondante and break it down to players we’ve signed since we last won a trophy. Then offset it against the players that have retired, let go or been sold. Then add the waste of money you have omitted conveniently from the list. I would but I couldn’t be arsed

GM

Sack Gazidis. What in the sweet, sweet, sweet fuck does this men get paid to do.

ckmma

Please complete something, please… anything, Saturday is looking less exciting by the second

Sid

If you cant get excited about the prospect of a brand new season and the first game of the season, then you have completely missed the point.

I pity the fool!

ckmma

I’m not saying its not exciting, just its not as exciting as it could have been, no new faces and a lot of injuries, yay…

Redondante

I see what you mean, but I got stupidly excited just watching Wilshere play for 45 minutes yesterday! Ramsey, Cazorla, Chamberlain, Walcott, Zelalem… I’m excited by what we already have. I want to see new players brought in to make the squad deeper and the team stronger, not just to ‘excite’ us.

William Hancox

I can hear the chants already.

The frustration level at the Emirates on Saturday was high enough to fragment the space time continuum in a localised area around the stadium and he’s hearing echoes from the future.

Did we lose?

Goontang

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Its exactly the mood Im feeling yet our beloved arsenal kick off in two days. I should generally be excited about that, but these guys for the last few years really feel it neccessary to replace excitement with depression…

Just give us something to fucking cheer about once in a while arsene. We are the best supporters in the land! We deserve it.

The Alsacien

How about Theo signed a new deal and no other player has jumped ship.

I, for one, am excited.

heroldgoon

Yep all that is great but If we don’t make any significant signings the players who called for additions will realise they can’t influence arsene to get in new addition and they will leave to look for that team with players they wanted to see at the club.

damien joyce

He must be a real narcissistical (made it up) fecker.

You could not make up the BS that comes out of his mouth, am sick of it all now. All I care about is results now, and that should be the defining factor of his season, if it’s successful, like I hoe, then fantastic. If not, then please shut the door on your way out and thanks for the memories

White Russian

Did you see how he was smiling? The boss is a fucking boss. We’ll be fine come September. 7amkickoff’s analysis this morning was brilliant – most squads (including City, United, Chelsea) don’t use more than 20 players a season. We have 18 – at the moment this is made to look more threadbare because of injuries highlighting specific weaknesses in certain areas. The core of the team is fine, but wee do need to add players – which we will do. The narrative on twitter, comments, unscrupulous blogs is that we’ve trashed our reputation this summer and Wenger should be… Read more »

Well White Russian, it’s either as you say it is or Wenger is becoming a senile old fart. Je has set himself up for the mother of all reprisals is he doesnt pull it off this time

jack jack jack

Thank you, O delicious boozy one. Great post and just the pick up I needed before Saturday. Can’t wait to see the lads step out in the great red and white again, this summer has been far too fucking long.

White Russian

Quite right.

Has the absence of competitive football, and the relative lack of signings in the first part of the transfer window made us forget we’ve got a team to support? I guess that might be true of Piers Morgan’s acolytes – those prepared to boo and hound the club because Spurs have spent more on a striker than we have.

gabe

Now I understand why the club has not made progress in the last years. Arsenal has some utterly mediocre, no hunger for improvement, completely visionless supporters like you.

heihaci

Wenger’s smiling because he is the ultimate troll with LAN and mental strength nonsense
We just managed 4th place after a monumental effort and with Spurs spending I can’t see us finishing 4th place with the current thin squad

White Russian

Yep, Wenger’s invested 17 years of his life in building this club up and driving us to a new stadium and new financial platform just to troll us.
You sir, are a moron.

Dick Swiveller

This squad is still better than Spurs, if Bale stays then it’s pretty close but I think we’ll finish 4th without reinforcements; only thing is that with a few players we could challenge for the league and top trophies, why we’re not doing that is beyond me but hopefully ‘being active’ will get us *something*.

AP

Dont worry, ManUre are gonna drop out of the top four this season.

Midfield Corporal

Jesus, listen to yourselves, you are actually talking as if 4 th place is a trophy. The lack of ambition by the club and some fans is pitiful.

Rad Carrot

Sorry White Russian, but I disagree. We’ve got 17 senior players now, and while they’re solid, they’re not going to win us the league. Besides, that ‘only-used-20-players’ is bullshit – it’s well established that the champions of the past eleven years have used at least 23, if not 26 players in their season (obviously teething a few youngsters). We’re not just talking about the 38 games of the PL, but the 60+ games that a top-four team like us is expected to play. We need signings, at the very least three immediate-impact ones, or else we are well and truly… Read more »

White Russian

‘Well and truly fucked’ – I admire your pessimism, even if it is tabloid-ludicrous. Been to Portsmouth lately? My optimism, such as it is, isn’t based on the thought that the players we have are good enough to win us the league, but that we will make signings that will radically improve the squad. We lurch from elation to despair too easily at the moment. The core of our squad is good – something very few seem to be saying is how great it is that AT THE VERY WORST our squad will be only as good as it was… Read more »

RadCarrot

That I will give you, and that is one of the optimistic points of the Summer. Mind you, we did play Gerv and Arshavin when we had to. And Yennaris, Miquel and Le Coq. Who are we going to play now? The massive frustration is that, had we done our business early – even with just one or two signings – they could have gone to Asia with the rest of the team, and now we’d be sitting pretty. Instead, we’re barely able to field a team of 11 seniors on the first day of the season – just reeks… Read more »

It’s surely a fact that if we don’t get Champions League a change is needed. Reading the Swiss Ramble….I don’t recommend it. It’s brilliant stuff, but as an arsenal fan I’m just pissed off at this stage with hearing how rich we are.

Yeah but we’re fucking rich! I mean, millionaire rich.

Chair

What do you mean, in a week’s time or next season? Because if you mean now, it’s probably too late to do anything, and sacking right after the transfer window closes (or a few days before it does) is pointless. If you mean next year, fourth doesn’t cut it for me anymore. There’s been a lot of changes at other clubs, new managers, unhappy players etc and if we don’t mount a serious challenge, it’s solely the manager’s fault and should leave after his contract runs out. We were in an unique situation to get back in the game and… Read more »

Haven’t Chelsea signed about 3 players already on top of an already good squad now with some proper world class players, can’t really compare us to them, they still have 3 strikers and only probably one striker off being the favorites!!

Sort it out Wenger!! Like we have the midfield options of anyone in the top 3!!

Ger

I don’t know why Wenger needs to make such dishonest statements in order to justify not signing anyone. A couple of weeks ago, he said it was only Man City that were active in the transfer market.

Andy Mack

3 signings. If I understand it correctly they signed a reserve reserve keeper and a very young guy (good but if AW bought him everyone would be moaning about signing kids) and a player that they’ve been working on buying for over a year….
I want some signings but the Chavs aren’t a great comparison.

So no news then.

It could be worse. We could have spent £5m on Downing

Merlin's Panini

It is pretty funny that West Ham paid £20 million for Downing and Carroll after Liverpool spunked away £55 million on them only a couple of years ago. Liverpool didn’t improve their squad buying those two and they lost the cost of a world class player in selling them on. You’ve got to wonder what they’re smoking at Anfield.

its depressing but we’ll just have to trust wenger for now. But if on september 2nd no one has come in then i will be the first one to criticise wenger and the board.

Amidst all this shitty transfer season I am still buzzing for saturday. Can’t wait for the arsenal to get back on the pitch, even if we may only field 7 players with new signing ivan gazidis up front.

How does on so successfully take what really should have and could have been a summer of delight and ecstacy for the fans over outstanding, high quality signings due to the huge financial fortune we now sit on, and turn it into such a disaster and a farce?

If AFC was “any other business”, heads would have rolled at least 5 seasons ago due to poor management performance.

Andy Mack

Oz, quite the reverse is true. To build such a stadium and pay off such a large proportion in such a short time would be lauded from a business point of view.

Swerve

Especially if the business was able to make the shareholders pay for it entirely and tell them the profits would be fine and it would all be worth it and everyone kept believing them.

This stadium bollocks is a tired old argument. Much the same as the one the same people who espoused this for years, where they claimed it was not that Wenger was not spending it was the Board holding him back.

Well hasn’t that turned out to be a right load of old bollocks.

More revisionist excuse making.

SAGooner

I ask this question in all seriousness, without sarcasm, and hoping for a genuine answer. When Wenger and Gazidis talk of “being active” and “working hard”, what do they actually mean? At the end of the day, the only way to get a contracted player from another club to Arsenal is to offer the relevant team a TRANSFER FEE and hope they accept. So if “working hard” means identifying suitable players with the ultimate goal of BIDDING for them and seeing that bid accepted, then I would venture to say that we’re not working hard AT ALL. If anything we’re… Read more »

Bacary's right leg

it not about defending the club. I’m not defending the club. I’m just saying its hard to even have a reasonable discussion on here at the moment and writing blog posts like this doesn’t help have any sort of a decent discussion about the club. Why even bother write it. The writing from blogs was a decent read till a couple weeks ago: it would expresse his positive or negative opinion without it reading like he is sitting in a dark room with a blanket over his head and a bottle of pills next to him.

It’s pretty obvious we wouldn’t bring in players until the champions league qualification is guaranteed. It’s the price you pay for finishing 4th but wanting to sign top quality talent they would be looking for that reassurance/prestige.

He didn’t.

Appalling how this transfer period has been handled. If Arsenal wants to be seen a professionally run business, management should face the consequences. Most of us would not get away with such abject failure in our jobs, wether burger flipper or senior manager in a large organisation.

I have it on good authority that Wenger is working hard behind the scenes, Stanley Matthews and Zinzedine Zidane are signing. Wenger says there are no players good enough to play for us, so Dr FrankenWenger is going into the Emirates basement to clone some players from their DNA. He admits that all the children he kidnapped will not be the solution. At the same time we may produce Zidane clone hamburgers too, to make the club some monee. Trust in Dr FrankenWenger.

Gilberto

I agree re too much hysteria and i’m sure some signings like Suarez want to see us qualify for the CL – but surely a couple could have been signed to help us qualify in the 1st place ? Fenebache is an awkward one and it really wouldn’t surprise me if we screw it up. If we pick up a few knocks at the weekend, we could be going to Turkey with some real holes in the starting X1.

Its all very well clearing the decks, but don’t release all of them until you’ve sorted it out.

Adam

I’m worried about us taking a few knocks away in Turkey to be honest. They aren’t known for their fair play. But I just can’t agree that players are waiting to see if we qualify for the CL before joining. If we don’t are they going to join Fenebache instead? For instance, everyone’s favourite Mr Men character: Mr Bitey Bite. He won’t be playing in the CL anyway this year, we are clearly more likely to make 4th (I think?) then Liverpool this season, and if he played in both of these legs (yummy yummy legs) we stand far more… Read more »

What makes you think that? I doubt he’ll come to us but it wouldn’t surprise me if he went to a CL team from the continent. Money talks and Liverpoo will not like the idea of paying him wages and him not playing.

funny how all those really good signings that spurs have bought didn’t have to wait to see if they qualified for the champions league. stop making excuses for the man. face it, it’s a bloody shambles.

Dam fine point. Despite, hopefully, CL football, we’ve put them all off???

Why oh why.

Wenger Will have eggs on his face next week when Arsenal is dumped out of CL by Fenerbache! By the way, has anyone watched the Spurs midfield? Paulinho, Dembele, Capoue… Full credit to Boas! Shame on Arsene..

Humble Gooner

Go home. You’ve not watched those three play—Capoue’s been there for all of an hour now? I’d take our midfield over that one every day of the week. Arteta/Rambo/Jack or Arteta/Jack/Rosicky or Ox or Cazorla. One thing is sure, we don’t have to worry about the Spurs midfield. They upgraded to our second string; good for them.

I ate spuds for dinner.

So did I, then I pooed them out and now they’re where they belong.

It’s just occurred to me, we announced we had shit loads of dollar. Been saving it up in a piggy bank for years and at last we smashed it with a hammer. But now nothing to show for it.

Sp*rs go out, take some of the players that could have fit into our squad nicely, spend a very similar amount to what we had in our kitty……….. And now we don’t dare talk of what was our money. It’s like it disappeared; or taken.

Those thieving bastards.

I don’t give a fish’s tits who sp*rs buy.

When ever we line up against them, I will back our boys to destroy them, everytime..

…Up the Arse!

17 days later: we tried hard, very hard. Unfortunately, there was no one that meets our standard we were looking for. We want only the best quality add to our squad. Our current squard can compete for the primier league.

When Wenger says he is active, does he just mean he’s taken up jogging for the summer or something?
All this talk about learning from that horror summer two years ago seems to actually have been total bollocks. It’s like he’s being asked by his Dad to mow the lawn and he just keeps on saying “oh God! I’ll do it tomorrow!”
Just cut the fucking grass Arsene, and do it nice and straight!

Sign-a--long

I was gonna sign some players, but then I got high….

Sign-a--long

…..Now we’re of the CL and I know why, because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.
