Based on my observations, the current crop of players are absolutely lack of passion. Most of them take things for granted and just trying to get their jobs done.
Becoz of this, even Cesc seems to be heading to such attitude due to lose after lose.

AW really needs to learn how to play tactically or else he really needs to go. AW is the best manager in the history of Arsenal but i dont think he can lead the current crop of players to the height of the Invincibles again. I hate to admit this but all these years, Alex Ferguson is so successful becoz this fiery oldman really knows how to change the tactics based on the players that he has.

To play beautiful football, there should be at least 1 top dribbler in the team but is there any in our current team? Nasri is good at holding ball but lack of speed. Andy still has some speed but unfortunately not enough weavings. Walcott, you all know it better than me.

Yes, we just 2 points off the Chelsea/MU but in reality, our consistency is way more than 2 points off. As for CL, is the same whether do we finish top of the table or second since to win it, you've to beat any team that still in it. Winning the CL by luck is no longer available.

i dont think that's a cheap shot. It was AW unnecessarily taking a swipe at RM and as usual, Mourinho will use derogatory words on AW.

Let's put a stop onto Cesc's saga, AW has made him stay for the timebeing, period. As highlighted, his recent not so Fabulous performance can be really down to playing too many games & injuries that failed to fully recovered.
Every players have their own up & downs. Players that reached their peak in their early 20s tend to be troubled by injuries e.g. Ronaldo, Owen, v.Basten, etc.

As for NB52, he's still a striker that in the learning process, not some wonderkid. He definitely got good techniques but injuries really hampers his progess.
On the match against Braga, it seems quite alot are blaming it on NB52 but with 7-8 ppl behind the ball, it's like playing against the wall. Plus, did our midfielders really provide the necessary ammo?
Chamakh has been playing quite decent but he's no where near RVP and definitely is not a long term solution.
