It is still the same players, I don't think Wenger should be sacked but I think he needs to take a lot of the blame here.
Fabregas and Nasri leave, he placed them with? who? Arteta, are you really going to challenge the top teams with Arteta? Ramsey is coming back from a horrific injury, their defence is a shambles and he only decided to buy Mertersacker on deadline day. Why does he do this? Does he not have the money? He keeps saying he does, as do the board. Wilshere is a big miss but relying on a 19 year old midfielder in the Premiership is suicidal.
He's allowed the likes of Hleb, Flamini to go, they haven't been replaced, Song does a decent job in midfield but he shifts into defence so much they have no presence in midfield any more. Whose fault is that? Its not Arteta or Ramseys fault that they're not holding midfielders. I respect Arsene a lot but the shit players he has at the club is because he is poor in the transfer market, who was the last real quality player he's bought in? Where's all those great youngsters from the Carling Cup final defeat to Chelsea? Who remains from that, Walcott? Who do we blame here for that?
How many Arsenal players would get into Tottenhams first team right now, Van Persie. That's about it. Maybe Sagna or Vermaelen. but thats not good enough for Arsenal.
If any other top team went 7 years without a trophy and had gotten further away from one in those years rather than closer they would be sacked.
