    Genuine question - you think that if Arteta tries to implement the Pep style of play that it will suit our favourite Welsher?

    Personally, I can't think of a player less suited to it. You need to be positionally aware in Pep's system (not just endlessly running forward) and possession is king, those who regularly give it away under pressure soon find themselves seated.

    Not to say that he can't be taught to play that way, but it will certainly require a change from how he plays now, yes?

    He played the way AW wanted him to play, we have established this many times, it wasn't as if he was told to do something and did somthing complately different..... the crap Welsher had a hand in more goals last season than our £350k a week German

    Ramsey will be sold so no point worrying about it.

    He's going to try and make us City but without the required calibre of player.

    Very negative approach there Dick.

    A bright future .. That there is a statement we’ve long since forgotten and speaking as a dribbling spastic, I found myself in brief moments of joy at the concept of Sean Dyche, Ronald Koeman and even Google Withers taking over the reins.. Such were the ends which Wengers continuation had effected upon my soul...22 years FFS

    One of the best things Arsene managed to do was mess with the head of a certain type of individual. It's amazing to me that the genial Frenchman was able to drive the less cerebrally blessed to the verge of requiring therapy just be doing his job incredibly well.

    Now, now Charles - play nicely.

    Wenger drove a great many people to the verge of requiring therapy by doing his job poorly, the same way, over and over again, for about 8 years.

    Everyone loved him in 2006, Charles.

    No further questions, your honour.

    You're on thin ice here, Charles. For years people like you and Monty assured those who questioned Wenger that he would turn it around, that we were having a temporary blip that would disappear due to his genius and we would return to the glory years.

    Subsequent events have proven this to have been utterly incorrect and that those questioning his performance were actually spot on.

    I'd suggest that this might not be the time for *you* to be questioning *their* understanding of the game.
