He wont because no-one will be willing to pay back Chelsea how much he cost them and so he will be staying

ARSENAL WILL REIGN SUPREME NEXT SEASON!!!

I reckon Sheva will stay another season and show his worth. Although, he will be 31 and past the peak of his powers (i like alliterations ). Ballack will definately stay.

Will look at the table. 21 points difference would be one of the most amazing things overturned ever.

We can do it. It's just basics like finishing that are letting us down

and this time hopefully kind Henry and VP will put them away instead of passing the ball all times

I'd rate your chances above Liverpool in the league purely because they haven't shown they can do it in the league but you're still far behind the big 2,sign some quality players and i'll give you a chance but expect to hear the pundits all say Chelsea if Mourinho stays although i don't reckon he will if they lose on saturday (which i reckon they will,we have the best players and Mourinhos already making excuses) and the whole dog thing won't have made him love the country

 

[Will_NA]

I respect him highly as a manager so I hope Chelsea lose and he leaves.

As for Arsenal's chances, it's all about a strong start to the season, we can't chase for the entire season as we won't be successful.

And you seriously think that we won't be strengthening our (already excellent) squad too?

When did I ever say that?? You guys have to strengthen your squad because outside the main eleven there arent many good options. Except towards the end of this season, you dint have any injury worries while we had probably one of the worst cases ever.

Do you remember what happened to the last team that bought the title? That's right, it was Blackburn Rovers, wasn't it? And where did they end up a few short years later? The Championship, wasn't it? Sent down by US!
Roman won't tolerate your inability to win the Champions League forever you know! If you don't win it soon, he'll be off and he will take his money with him! You'll be left with a crippling players salary bill to pay that you won't be able to afford.

The only reason Chelski are doing so well is Roman's money. Everyone knows that, whereas most of Man Utd's success was down to bringing young players through, with a few more experienced (or not, in Rooney and Ronaldo's case) purchases to help things along! I mean, seriously! Beckham, The Neville Brothers, Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes all coming through in the same season! That won't be matched for quite some time!

I cant predict the future but as of now since we do have the money we have every right to spend. Its a footballing fact. The Spanish and Italian giants have been doing this for ages. Nothing wrong in that.

Obviously its good to bring up youngsters and develop them into better players. But usually the smallers clubs end up losing all their promising youngsters to the bigger clubs.

Well i rate our chances as pretty much zero for the Prem next season.I'm optomistic though that we'll greatly improve and challange.I think we'll have a good run in Europe as well.

...we can't chase for the entire season as we won't be successful.

you can try but you wont be able to keep up because arsenal is pathetic.

 

[hassan]

I am being realistic, Atm i can only see us getting to 3rd place max and maybe do well in Cup games

 

[Leicester Fox]

United have a young squad but mixed it with some experienced proven winners,if Arsenal can do the same i would give them a chance
anyone else watching le arse on sky sports now? Despite scoring twice they were still struggling to put away half the chances they made

 

[Dalek]

Ronaldo is at his peak atm... what more do you want...

Arsenal Fans Thierry and co will be back next season and stronger and i hope Wenger actually makes some decent signings this summer. We need some experience in Midfield defensively and at the back too...

Henry+VP+Adebayor upfront man thats a killer combo

Maybe Arsenal can get some English players.

yea Arsenal have hardly any english players

English players are usually over-rated and expensive. Something Arsenal could do without atm.
