URGENT CHANGE NEEDED AT ARSENAL.

WE EITHER CHANGE OR NOT COMPETE WITH THE BIG CLUBS LIKE WE USED TO 8 YEARS AGO.

Arsenal is a club which used to compete with the best clubs in the world some time back but with the current transfer policy we can not.

Most clubs in the world would like to promote junior players to the first team but not most of them would make it due to the increased demand for success which limits giving young lads a chance. You may point out Barcelona who won the Champions League with 7 La Masia graduates but they also managed to go for Neymar, Ibrahimovic, Villa at big money which has never happened at Arsenal showing that you cant do without strengthening from outside.

We have an academy Hale End where the likes of Ashley Cole, Gibbs and Jack Wilshere were produced but it is still not enough, Arsene has concentrated on the youth policy from 1996 upto now the likes of Sanogo are still coming in but of recent we released 10 youngsters from the club U-21 team because they were no longer useful to the club including Hale End graduates showing that we are not that successful there.

The main way to succeed in today's football is to buy quality players from outside who are proven and ready to deliver, believe it or not the market is now inflated, money we used to buy the good players we had before can not do that now, it is not a surprise to me that we don't have a Bergkamp, Henry, Pires, Fabregas or even Van Persie at the Emirates now.

We made £10m and £6m bids for Cabaye and Williams respectively according to reports, Newcastle manager Alan Perdew responded by blasting us that the bid is 'disrespectful and you would agree with him because in today's world there is no where you can get a player of Cabaye's quality, proven at 10m. I really do not know what those who made those bids were thinking, they made me also feel ashamed to be honest. Players who can help us like Paul Pogba of Juventus their starting price is £20m. We missed out on players like Higuain because of our outdated transfer formula and it seems the trend is still on because the men in charge do not look like changing soon.

The bottom line is that we either change or continue sinking and we shall not get what we want on a cheap may be another Koscielny but may also not be good in the first season or so.
If you look at what Spurs have done you have got to be worried. Liverpool are not also far away, they retained Suarez and added some new faces, we only have Sanogo who came on a free for Auxerre. A big club cannot be built like that however intelligent your manager is in this era. You can tell me one you know of.
We love the club that's why we need change not just sit and relax like Stan when things are going from bad to worse.

Till then Love you all Gooner Family
