Arsenal FC – Lukas Podolski Shouldn’t Be Pleased About Debut Season
While Lukas Podolski seems to be more worried that his current ankle injury is going to keep him out of the Germany internationals, it is his form for Arsenal over this entire season that needs to concern him, which as been a lot closer to a failure than a success.

Arsenal to Manchester United – Robin van Persie Made the Perfect Choice
Arsene Wenger once said that if he’d had the talents he’s been grooming over the years this season, things would have been different. But talents don’t want to stay for promise after promise, preferring more money and a lot more ambition. Robin van Persie chose, along with Arsenal, Manchester United, and didn’t have to look backwards even for a single second.

Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Doesn’t Want Theo Walcott as a Striker
Despite being the team’s top scorer, Theo Walcott will continue to play on the flank for Arsenal. Arsene Wenger acknowledges the England forward is a much better finisher than he has been earlier in his career, but sees no reason to move him from his current position.

Arsenal FC – Theo Walcott Strikes Before it Got Really Boring
Boring Arsenal is no longer a chant attached to the team George Graham led to win two Premier League titles over 20 years ago. It’s alive and well, even under the hands of the Arsene Wenger, who’s no longer the magician he used to be. Theo Walcott may have broken the club’s Premier League record for quickest ever goal, but there was nothing too impressive in the 89 minutes that followed.

Arsenal FC – Theo Walcott Should Start Playing as a Striker
Arsene Wenger keeps refusing the talented English forward, but after going through so much this season in terms of trying to find consistent goal scoring, maybe the solution of giving Theo Walcott more opportunities to play in the center of the attack, as a striker instead of a winger on the right, is the best one he has to use.

Arsenal FC – Jack Wilshere is Not the Future
The huge turn Arsene Wenger has pulled over the last couple of seasons, partially because of his refrain from big spending, and trying to create a basis of young English talent to lead Arsenal in the future is a welcomed one, but trying to mislead everyone, including himself, by putting too much on the shoulders of Jack Wilshere will only lead to more disappointment in the future.

Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Can’t Leave as a Failure
Each season has its own goals an ambitions, and Arsenal, as strange as that sounds, have been lowering their standards with every passing year. Arsene Wenger is a big part of that “tradition”, as the club becomes more and more about ending the season with an impressive profit line, instead of trying to compete for titles or the best players available on the market. If Santi Cazorla is the best this club can find, it means someone is doing something wrong.

Arsenal FC – Olivier Giroud & Laurent Koscielny Aren’t Good Enough
Of the many mistakes and bad signings Arsene Wenger has made for Arsenal over the past few years, two stand out above the rest – Laurent Koscielny and Olivier Giroud. Both Frenchmen, tall and impressive looking, before they start playing football.

Arsenal FC – Santi Cazorla Is the Best They Can Do
And it’s not enough. If Santi Cazorla is the best player on a team, which he is for Arsenal, it means something hasn’t been working for Arsene Wenger in both player development and his eye for signings. There’s Theo Walcott and Aaron Ramsey, but those aren’t players that will lift the team from it’s current stature, into something more than contenders for a Champions League spot.

Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Won’t Stick Around Forever
It may be a good thing, it may be a bad turn of developments. But it seems the day Arsene Wenger is no longer the manager of Arsenal is getting closer. What does the future hold? A turn of events for the better, or a sharp decline into obscurity and the unimportance that shouldn’t be a part of the everyday life of a club such as the gunners are.
