    Just trying to be realistic, mate. Its not necessarily a criticism of the manager either - in fact arguably the target of the fans ire has been the one factor keeping the club effectively punching above its weight for so long. But while I think that there is the will and the wherewithal at the club to make modest improvements for next season, and improvements will be necessary, IMO just to keep us in CL football. I do not think that under an unchallenged Wenger we are going to show the boldness/confidence/decusiveness/foolhardiness (?) necessary to catapult the club back into the 'big time' - ie league winners or destination club for the best players around. I think this might be the plan over time - particularly with the FIFA fair play riules coming in - but not this Summer.

    Nah, on par with Accrington, I reckon.

    We'll buy some average players that are playing in a shit league that ultimately will have no heart or sould for the club. We will be told all they need is a chance to prove thier worth.

    We'll sell some terrible players that we all knew were shit some seasons ago that Wenger thought were going to be world beaters even though they would have trouble beating an egg.

    Wenger will lie and tell us that after a difficult start these players need to bed in and all that bullshit.

    Cesc will probably get sold the final day of transfers and Wenger will then say he had no time to buy replacements.

    The Wenger bullshit merrygoround will carry on and on and on and on and on.

    Its a serious question - nothing to do with pessimism.

    IMO, the 'big 4' doesn't necessarily mean the 'top 4'.

    If you are basing it on wealth/marketing power - then Manure; Chavs; Citeh and 'Pool probably rank above us.

    If you are basing it on silverware since 2005 then the same applies...

    CL pedigree?

    Pulling power for players?

    Serious question.
