I read that we have only won 2/3 league games away from home all season (in the league). It is embarrassingly poor. I really don't understand how being at home can be such an advantage. The pitch is roughly the same size, the same rules apply etc.
Anyway, ITKs tell me that Arsene is handing over to Joachim Low after the World Cup. His remit with this 2 year deal was a slow transition; starting with the infrastructure and ending with the manager. This should mitigate the risk of a post-Sir Alex type scenario.
