It's alright everyone - we're now officially a club in crisis.

twitter.comSo depressing and no supporter (least of all me after 43 years) derives anything but sheer pain and upset from it all. No point discussing what we’re seeing on the pitch anymore. None whatsoever, it’s so blindingly obvious. The two worthwhile discussion points for me now are off the pitch ; 1/ The club is now inherently sick and the Manager is cornered in a 2-3 month vacuum and a downward spiral. The commercial value of the club is in question and perhaps even in play. Does a buyer (a White Knight if you like, Dein-orchestrated or Usmanov even) see a more attractive entry level and could Kroenke blink here given his shares may have dipped in value but he would still be massively in profit. Ok…I know he’s generally a long-term player, but still. 2/ We all know the problem on the pitch is directly related to an imbalanced player-investment/disposal programme in the summer. I’m still interested to know what happened at the end because it’s key to understanding the club’s structure. Wenger wanted a DM and also CB cover, don’t believe for one second the “we couldn’t find the right players”. There was a monumental, commercial cock-up possibly because purchases were on hold until Besiktas were overcome and then we bungled it with too little time. Is this the case because such lack of ambition, basic commercial competence and conservatism will never be overcome. If, on the other hand, I’m completely wrong and Wenger alone ballsed it up and scarpered off to the Eternal City for a bit of site-seeing, what the blody hell is the CEO of the blody year doing about it ? This is a great Bar/Forum (the best) so I personally would like to see the dialogue cranked up in this way without any accusations or name-calling. There’s a lot of knowledge in here and if we can share that and somehow see some light at the end of the tunnel to calm us all down a bit ….then the Bar will have delivered some much-needed therapy. Although far be it from me to say how all the regular contributors here should interact and post. COYG.
NOT by me someone posted this and I just thought it was interesting read

That guy hasn't really said anything new, take out the word besiktas and you could apply this to last season or the season before. I don't know what he's on about with our dip in value, I can't see that in any way shape or form, I'd imagine we're making as much money as ever.
The point is, it's not the end of the world, we're just having a bit of a shit time of it at the moment, it happens.

The Star said we're in crisis!!?! OMG, that is basically a death sentence for Wenger. Throw out your Arsenal shirts, smash your Arsenal mugs and burn down the Emirates. We now support Bournemouth
lets just go full plastic and support MK dons its only an hour from the crater emirates was located in
Bournemouth? Nah, I'd saying something where we can relax regardless of results. So Blackpool.
