Don't want to be a kill joy but are we actually adding players or replacing them? .
MBappe for Sanchez is not adding it's replacing.
For me moving forward is adding more quality not losing the quality we have and scrambling around and ending up with the equivalent of what we already have.
Leaves us in a similar situation to where we started. Sorry.
{Ed025's Note - look lanesra it is what it is, arsene is around for another 2 years and we can either get behind the team as supporters and actually support, or spend the next 2 years moaning and groaning that we are not signing him or him or that this player is going and that player wants out, its supposed to be enjoyable mate and we need a bit more positivity on these pages, arsenal have just won the FA cup and finished the season really strongly so its not all doom and gloom, lets see how things pan out before we rubbish the club and i know its not easy at times but lets get the feel good factor back..rant over..

Great response Ed.

Ed25 I've been guilty of two things lately, yesterday I moaned about Wenger stating he wanted to challenge for the title which I just let wind me up and I also stated the FA Cup was just a day out which it's clearly not.
My bad and I humbly seek your forgiveness as the voice of sanity. 😔.
{Ed025's Note - say 2 our farthers, 3 hail mary,s and we will talk of this blasphemy no more my son...the lord said go forth...unfortunately it was fifth but who cares next season the sun will shine on the righteous and arsenal will be a force again, bless you..

I love this site but lately it's where I come if I want to give myself a dose of depression.
Lanesra, we were Arsenal Football Club long before Sanchez and we'll be Arsenal Football Club long after he's left. For me, while Sanchez is obviously a great player, I hate the thought of him holding us to ransom over his wages. I'd prefer him and Ozil were sold and we replaced them. I find it funny that so many people think the man that has delivered 16 trophies and a new state-of-the-art stadium is dispensable but players like Sanchez and Ozil aren't.
I'm not saying we shouldn't try and keep them, what I'm saying is we should only keep them if it fits within the confines of our own limitations. Just because other clubs are paying their players £350K per week doesn't mean we can or should.

I wish all of our fans had your attitude Ed. I do fear a huge backlash the second there's any kind of slip up next season.
{Ed025's Note - once a couple of decent signings come in D16 im sure the mood will change mate..
02 Jun 2017 13:43:07
Ed, spot on. Whether we like the fact wenger is staying or not it's a fact and it's happening. No point protesting, moaning etc. God job or bad, with or without sanchez and/ or Ozil we have to make the most of it.
My father in law gas a great saying-
The graveyard is full of people they couldn't do without.
We managed after Adams, after Bergkamp, after Henry and we will carry on after Sanchez and after Ozil.
If they want out then get the best price we can, reinvest that money plus any more that's available in the best we can get then move on and look forward.
You can't force people to stay. You can't change the past. All you can do is build the best future you can.
{Ed025's Note - we need more like you sooper mate..

We are a great club so let's get behind them in 2 years time I'm sure we will change manager until then let's give it our all for the club.

Im sure we have all had the same discussions after his last two contract renewals. And i'm sure we will have the same if he renews again. Eds just wants usmanov to everton can't blame him tbh. Sanchez leaving for me proves a hell of a lot but let's see what happens. Mbapppe would be amazing.
