Depends how you define good football. I define good football as winning football. Couldn't give a shit if it's pretty or not.

I'm sure the players don't mind it cos they win but I'm a football fan and I watch for entertainment value and that is not entertaining.

Give me a fast counter attacking move from one end to the pitch in a matter of seconds than a boring ass pass pass pass pass pass pass pass pass bore everyone to death move anyway

well that boring boring team scores ALOT more than us. what does that say about us?

oh and we do alot of passing too.

you're too bitter.

And I've said our style is boring as well. We just aren't as good as being tippy tappy as the master borers Bayern and Barca.

We have Spanish c listers in our first XI in Cazorla and Arteta. If we insist on tippy tappy shite then we should get players who are better at it

For me, winning is entertaining. I'd be happy if we we won stuff playing like Stoke or playing like 70s era Brazil.

I'm sure the Bayern fans are very entertained winning damn near everything.

Bayern's football isn't even dull though. It wasn't too exciting last night because they were playing with the handbrake on and we were ultra-defensive, but most weeks they're scoring goals of immense quality. They're certainly more fun to watch than Pep's Barcelona side.

But yeah, as BearCum says, winning is the most important thing. I love the way we play at times and that is certainly part of our identity but it doesn't make up for years of winning nothing.

Fair enough.

Unfortunately we aren't winning or being entertaining so both of us are missing out

Arteta, Flamini, Ox, Schez, Jack, Ramsey, Ozil and Santi don't care? Sorry, where did you get this from?

I believe all the players care.

I also believe Wenger cares.

However, Wenger is not magnanimous enough to do what is needed to achieve success.
a. delegate certain roles to others
b. buy top class players without 30,000 fans telling him to (ie behave proactively as a manager)
c. accept that he is not omnipotent
d. play Podolski more frequently

A fake laugh is the response from someone that can't answer a simple enough question

Meanwhile, their president gets sent to gaol for being a tax-dodging criminal. At least we have the moral high ground on them.

We really don't. Their president's tax dodging has nothing to do with the club.

Even if you claim it does, let me remind you that Bendtner rubbed his genitals on a taxi the other night.
