    OMG he thinks the team he supports is elite, I'm going to go call him delusional. Is that really what you were thinking as you typed that?

    We are England's third most succesful club and have been in the top division since 1919.We have eaten at European football's top table since 1998 so i think that makes us an elite club.

    Seriously I think you guys have confused yourselves with Liverpool fans going on about history. IRONY when Gooners start sounding like Scousers going on about history, you know you ain't got **** when all you have to do is talk about the past, WELL IN MY DAY.....Let's live now shall we? Not what happened a decade ago.

    For all the glamour and glitz of the past, we have nothing to show for it now, oh sorry, we do, that invisible 4th place trophy, silly me how'd I forget, because obviously an ELITE TEAM's main priority is to scrap for the 4th place invisible trophy.

    History is also what defines the elites. Look at all the top teams and what do most of them have, an extensive history.

    We have a good history, which is why we're a BIG ESTABLISHED CLUB, but we are not an ELITE CLUB currently.

    Elite clubs are your United's, Barca's, Bayrens etc. That's what we used to be when we were invincibles, that's an ELITE CLUB. To call what we currently are as elite, is a joke. 20 points behind United, oh yeah, so elite.

    I'm a much better supporter than you are, 'fans' like you are what will kill this club and any ambition left in it.

    At least I'm the supporter who wants to see the team progress and be the best, not like you, make excuse after excuse with every stage of regression acting like everything's fine.

    And you STILL DON'T HAVE THE DECENCY to critique Wenger in this bad transfer window, says it all really. Fans like you would truly kill this club if you were the only ones.

    Well then he's doing a really ****ty job at ot seeing as he's probably been supporting the cub before you were born.
    Answer this question: is Monreal a better LB than Santos, and maybe even better than Gibbs?

    Just cause he supported them before I was born means jack ****.

    I don't know much about Monreal, though from what I hear, I think he's a big improvement on Santos....BUT, here's the BUT since you the blinker brigade don't have the decency to go to this point, and rather only want to harp on about the new LB for your PR spin. BUT we needed MORE, and only bringing him in IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

    So if we have bought a LB who's probably better than on of the best LBs in the league, how is that a bad thing? What is this positive PR Bullshit. Since when is signing quality a bad thing?

    Wow CONGRATULATIONS, you watched Arsenal before i was born, a fact of life that I had ZERO control over. Is this how desperate and low the argument has to go to? LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

    Like the criteria for the best supporter is watching it before someone was born. Heck, THAT MAKES YOU A BETTER FAN THAN WILSHERE!!!!!!!!! OR EVEN HENRY if you were watching Arsenal while he wasn't even born!

    Good supporters support the club through the good and bad times. They get behind the team always never mind the circumstances.

    It is fans (I'm not saying you are one) that only started supporting the Arsenal when Wenger took over and we has our success that are spoilt. They typify the plastic fans tab and moan when the lean times happen.

    We ALL want Arsenal to do better. We all want to win things. But so does every fan of every club. We cannot all win every year. We cannot compete with the financial clout of the Manc clubs and Chelsea. We can do better yes. Is this signing good for Arsenal, yes. Could we have signed more, possibly.

    I would rather we were prudent and well run though, so that we don't do a Leeds or Portsmouth, which could potentially happen to Chelsea or Man C (I would hope not though). I will be supporting my club, whether or not we win trophies for the rest of my life, hopefully that will be at least another 10 years, but preferably another 40 years. I'll support them wherever we are in the League. As I am sure you will.
