you got it wrong! In any club no one can predict when a player reaches it`s peek. Tell me Ole wise one how many players left Arsenal and became better . Not many I`m afraid.... academy is design to educate and produce. We seem to produce players that has not reach a level of elite is that our fault no it`s what I said earlier players reaching their peek which in our league not good enough. Jack is a perfect example as a good promising but not proven as of yet.
A selling Club I think there is a time when every player has a price tag. Good business is good business Fabregas might be very known more for his transfer tag then his contribution to success for the club. We bought him for peanuts and selling him back to his old club for a record fee. Until we win trophies we`ll always be looked at how unsuccessful we were on the pitch compare to how well we ran the club.
Regardless how well the players who Arsenal let go performed at another club. The reality is they were your best players. Diarra doesn't look too out of place in a real Madrid shirt.
Adeboyor didn't look too out of place when he was running from one end of the pitch to the next to celebrate in front of the arsenals fans for his Man city victory.
Ashley cole didn't look too out of place when he was lifting the premiership trophy for chelsea last season.
I can go on however I'm sure you get the picture. You have sold you're best players and replaced them with infants.
Your manager seems on intent of standing by his dream of winning a league title with a team whose average age is 22 or 23. In the past Wenger had a title winning formula . However everything that was a hallmark of Wenger's successful teams in the past he suddenly decided to strip your squad of; To prove he could do it another way, his way!
Lets be frank here, it's all about him, he and only it was he himself who changed the winning blueprint he had with regards to personnel. In the past he developed championship teams with an abundance of experience even in the second string many times when he first took over. However now he has replace those veterans with kids all over. He used to bring in former world cup and euro winners, and players who won trophies in other leagues, and even in England Players who played at big clubs before and thus know what pressure is and what it takes to win taste success and trophies.
Back in 1996-1998 he had his championship winning teams with vocal leaders and strong personalities, the likes of Parlour, Adams, keown, Vieira, Seaman and Winterburn were real grafters and battlers who would never take a beating lying down. His championship winning teams had English players as some key contributors who knew what it takes to play in a winters game, and now none. He’s now replace them with a bunch of "nice boys" who he can control and are in awe of him.. Who have the courtesy to tag along with title winning friends at Chelsea to help them celebrate a glorious end of season party. To get a taste of what success feels like. They themselves can only dream of it, whilst under Wenger’s helm.
