Actually yeah, that is pretty much my response to your entire comment - You have to wait and see. It's a very young team, I think we are just seeing the results of that inexperience. The only way I can see 'no future' for the team is if Fabregas (or other integral player) leaves at the end of the season. After the loss of Flamini with no real replacement, that would be a hammer-blow to the squad. Adebayor can be very frustrating, he does have some poor touches and has a tendency to get offside. But look at the West Ham game at the weekend, he totally turned that around for us, I don't think we would have won it without him coming off the bench. Also he does create a lot of chances for other players, and drops back to get involved. You are writing off a lot of good players off, I take your point but you can't really compare Walcott to Pires unfavourably yet, Walcott is a just a lad and Pires was at the peak of his game! And i'd rather have Clichy than Cashley on the pitch any day of the week!

It’s a very young team, I think we are just seeing the results of that inexperience.

Football and Arsenal are my passions and yesterday also I saw the match in TV till 03-30 am in the morning. I think this team has no future. Excepting Fabregas and Van Persie and to some extent Nasri and Gallas, all other players are very very ordinary. Old Lehman is still better than Almunia, worst goalkeeper ever played for Arsenal. Denelson is below par. Adebayor is another overrated player, whom I dislike most. Very clumsy player. Clichy and Walcott are very erratic, no consistency like Ashlay or Pires. Eduardo and Rosiscy are badly needed in this team. But first man to be replaced is Almunia. I think even Fabinsky would be better. If Wenger does not take quality players in January, this will be his last year I can foresee, though I am a great fan of Wenger. Hi
