    You do know Wenger has won things before yes? If you ask me, would I rather our club get in huge debt, and win some trophies, or have a sustainable rebuilding period, where we become financially stable, build a new stadium, and find some of the best talents on the planet so that in a few years we can start winning trophies again and not have to spend millions getting in debt to do so, I'd much rather have the later. Obviously not winning trophies isn't a good thing, but it's the price we have to pay to build for the future and i'm glad we have done it.

    We can name our whole squad of 30 players for the next 5 years or so, without a single player being over 30 after those 5 years and also having a lot of potential world class players in that squad. How many teams across the world can say that?

    It's only a matter of time before we start winning things, anyone can see that. We've constantly been improving over the past few years, and if it's not this season, it'll be very soon.

    I agree with you that you are improving, I mean this season you're competing for the Premier League but it's same old story where you slip up along the way or at the last hurdle. Birmingham in the CC final? You will say it comes down to individual errors, with goalkeepers and defenders but this has been the case for a good few seasons and in order for you to start progressing as a whole then you need to spend in the summer on a good goalkeeper.

    We don't need a new GK. Szczesny is good enough, just needs more experience and we need to keep a consistant backline.

    When everyone is back, then we'd have a team of:

    First XI:

    ---------------- Szczesny ----------------
    Sagna - Djourou - Vermaelen - Clichy
    ----------- Song --- Wilshere -----------
    --- Walcott --- Fabregas --- Nasri ---
    --------------- van Persie ---------------

    Second XI:

    ---------------- Fabianski ----------------
    Eboue - Squillaci - Koscielny - Gibbs
    ---------- Diaby ---- Ramsey ----------
    -- Bendtner -- Rosicky -- Arshavin --
    --------------- Chamakh ---------------

    Subs:

    Almunia
    Mannone
    Traore
    Frimpong
    Lansbury
    JET
    Vela

    Which is a decent back 5, we just need to keep it consistant so they learn from each other and play as a unit, and the midfield/attack is already proven.

    Djourou is constantly improving, and will probably cement his first XI team like Song has done.

    I'd like to see us buy a backup CB, for when Vermaelen/Djourou/Koscielny are injured, and also a backup to Song, as although Frimpong looks like a good prospect he's still young so someone experienced would be nice, and we need to sell Almunia.

    How much longer are you going to have fab for? it's ok building a team but you need world class players in they and they aren't going to hang around not winning anything with the chance that one day arsenal may win a trophy. You've come closest this season to the PL and the CC and you're not out of the PL yet although it's getting more and more unlikely.

    Yes we have massive debt but you pay that off by winning the big trophies and drawing in the big crowds and that's what we do. Also we made a massive massive mistake in bringing in the Glazers.
