    It’s going to take more than 5 years to get back to challenging for the league regardless of who’s in charge next season personally.

    They’ve got a new scout and a new chief negotiator if I remember correctly.

    We've got our strikers in, but that's just the tip of the iceberg mate.

    For me, You didn’t need Aubameyang, You needed a goalkeeper, defender, A holding midfielder and a right winger in January personally, Imdont think Anbameysng was a Wenger signing at all in my opinion.

    We do need him as we sold Giroud, Walcott and Sanchez and you're right he was a Mislintat signing. But yes we also need to address the rest of the team. Hopefully we do that in the summer.

    With Wenger in charge, I doubt it, But you never know, He might change, abut I’ve heard that for the last couple of years to be fair.

    I hope he goes too. But I think Mislintat and Sanllehi are largely driving transfers now

    Hence the Aubameyang signing.

    I think it’s a farewell present to Wenger, Like Van Persie was for Sir Alex Ferguson personally.

    If they get a good coach they can turn it round quicker than you think. They won’t need 500 million like United to get back into top 4

    I don't think Wenger would have signed him because he wont' command any resale value, but hopefully that is a sign that we're no longer simply buying players to develop them and then sell them on.

    They’ve spent a lot of money in the last 2 transfer windows you know, At least they won’t be spending £75m on players like Morata.

    All of the foundations are in place at Arsenal, a big stadium, loyal fans, top quality training facilities, a new scout, chief negotiator. We're not THAT far off, but we are stagnating at the moment because Wenger cannot arrest our decline whilst those teams around us are improving. I think it would take a manager who knows how to defend properly, a DM, CB, somebody to replace Cazorla and a new RWF and I think we'd be back in the mix again.

    I hope so, but only if the club have got somebody of the right calibre lined up. I don't want to see us get rid and then put Bould in temporary charge or give some inexperienced manager 'a chance'
