That wouldn't surprise me at all. I think he probably knew we wouldn't win it and, basically, just gave up. He knows we're far better than the trash below us for them to jump us but what's the point in tiring out an already exhaustered and thin squad for a fruitless challenge toward a team who look about as likely of dropping points as United fans from Manchester?Tunis4life said:My only guess at our inaction during the January window was that AW admited to himself this season is basicly over as the title is Chelsea's and just hopes we can win the FA Cup and make some sort of run in the UCL with the current squad, and save as much cash as possible for this summer.
FA Cup > Champions League.Haroon said:For once Arsenal will at least pay serious attention to the UCL instead of having pre-occupied thoughts on the Premiership which is a goner this season. It will be interesting to see this new approach. However Wenger must bench Henry. :mute:
