we have lost some great players, henry is playing like he did in the world cup, crap. We may still lose cole, reyes seems like he is staying, but who wants someone in the team that doesnt really wanna be there anyway. After yesterdays dismal game is there any hope for us this season. No abuse please. dont care what team u support. Points of view from u all please, also please state what team u support to would be cool.

hey. Yh i'm an arsenal fan as well. I think ur first comment on henry is a bit harsh. i dont think henry is 100 % fit yet and i still think when he is fit, he is the best player in the premiership and 2nd best in the world, after ronaldinho, so give him a few more games and he will be his best. Regarding the cole and reyes situation, it looks as if cole might be staying for atleast another year now i heard on ceefax and skysports. I dont think reyes situation is gonna be solved, coz although he want to move to any club in spain, arsenal want atleast 15 million for him. with real madrid not interested anymore, and athletico madrid only offering 8 million, i dont see him going anywhere in spain to be honest and i feel he may well be staying until christmas or until next year. Talking about arsenals poor start to the season, i dont think the bigger pitch at the emirates stadium is the problem, coz 19 of the 38 games are played away. i think the problem may be a left back, with justin hoyte. i have seen all 4 of arsenals games this season, and he looks very poor, and uncomfortable at that position. i think that is the ony real problem, i think after a few more games the players will be 100 % fit and play wonderful football again. the exciting thing is that of theo walcott. in the games he has played he looks amazing, and i think he could be the next henry. so to sum up i dont think we should worry just yet. we have only played 2 prem games, so give it a couple more games. i hope cole stays and i am hoping arsenal can buy 1 or 2 good players b4 the transfer window, hopefully carlos tevez.

I'm a Newcastle fan.
My club's been on the decline ever since Kevin Keegan left.
We've seen 4, 5 changes of manager and so many top players come and go. Seen our worst season in the Premiership, and barely squeezed into Europe for this season. Still without a fully fit striker and hands full with ongoing defensive problems.
For you, Its like, only the first 2 games of the season.
Why are you panicking?
Wenger is right to hold on to Reyes and Ashley Cole for the moment. Because Chelsea is insincere and just fooling around with them, as seen with the recent situation with William Gallas.
Reyes may not have settled into English football and is homesick, but he is a tremendous talent, enough to convince Wenger to make him the club's record signing. So its not good business to let him go on the cheap.
If you are a true Gunner fan, then believe in Arsenal and Arsene Wenger.

Well, last season was supposed to be the start of a "period of transition", but I imagine most Arsenal fans thought that the transition would be to another successful era, which doesn't seem to be happening.
Wenger does not seem to have made the astute signings that he usually does, and Vieira still seems to be a huge loss.
Having said that, it's very early in the season and there's plenty of time for the situation to change.
Who do I support? United. Look back to the years following the European Cup win in 68, relegation in 74 was awful, but a quick return to the top flight and Cup Finals and decent league placings under the Doc, Sexton, Big Ron, and, ultimately, Sir Alex have turned things around.
Not that I'm suggesting it'll take Arsenal 25 years to win another title. (Though we can only hope!!!...sorry, couldn't resist that!)

I'm an arsenal fan.
I have the same worries that henry is playing poorly and a few big names have left.
But look on the bright side, we didn't have cole for most of last season and flamini was immense. So bye bye cole.
Reyes has never been very goog consistently for us, so give van persie his starting place.
And if we start converting our chances, we'll start to win games by half time again.
Give theo 90 minutes pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease, so we can see what he can do!!!!

wenger is just being an idiot for not letting england's best left back play. arsenal really need to sort out themselves. i can't say i like them but a champions league finalist last year being 17th in the table. even if only two games have been played they should be higher up. wengers team has young talent but they need halves of matches to get experience not being chucked in because the manager doesn't like certain players. but still they should do well in europe.
i support ipswich town, another good team that aren'tdoing that well. they've got a team full of youngsters too.

Arsenal aren't playing that bad and the stats show they're creating many more chances than the opposing team. The main problem is their only real goalscorer, Henry, has lost confidence after a poor World Cup.

Its you manager arsene wenger mate he's lost it, and the wider pitch at emirates wont be helping arsenal are used to a narrow pitch. and he only uses 1 set of tactis. and as a man united fan i'm loving it for years we've been there season after season and it is all chelsea this and chelsea that just like it was with arsenal but no other club has foundations like united constantly there are great young players coming through and a manager who has been there for over 20 years like to see mourinho stick round for that. and once abramovich has had his fun he'll be gone. ENJOY IT WHILE IT LASTS CHELSKI.

our players where getting old . henry needs a qualoty forward next to him to supply him - bergkamp. cole wont go unless its 25 mil . reyes stated he will NOT play in england. doesnt like da club but still gives 100 percent - dives too much . wenger trusts youth too much and stated that he doesnt spend money beacuase he wants his young team to grow. good idea for 4 years fomr now...all they have to do is gel and grow together as a team.. oh and make sure your mate thiery stays along too. liverpool supporter here.....

Patience. Patience. I would be more worried if we were not creating chances but we are so eventually we'll stick them in the net. Henry is obviously not match fit, Rosicky needs to settle, It seems like we'll get Gallas and that shud beefen up our defence. I don't mind if reyes and cole go, its just that we havent't got time to spend the money that we get for them. Am concerned that in our games so far, we have conceded 1st and needed to get back in the game. Once we get going, we'll be fine.
