But yeah, in an Arsenal point of view it's been dissapointing as fuck. I really thought this was our year with Cech, midfield duo of Cazorla and Coquelling and Alexis and Ozil. Needed a better striker than Giroud/Welbeck though and some cover for Coquelin. Everyone saw it except Wenger - he can be such a stubborn fool sometimes.
The bright spots for me this season have been Bellerin and Elneny, as you say, but also Iwobi. Kid has a great future ahead.
I honestly doubt Ozil and Alexis will be moving away from Emirates, I think they both have contracts up till 2018 (maybe even 2019). The club won't sell even if they want to go. Next season with Guardiola in Man City, Mourinho possibly in United and Chelsea with Conte backed by the Russian oligarch's billions... If we stick with Wenger I think we'll have to settle for fourth... Again. We have a really strong team individually, but the team lacks confidence, desire, tactical awareness (especially in defense) and adaptability within games, all attributes that are instilled by the manager. Are you Wenger out?
