I thought it was an OK read, so decided to post it up. Some decent points in there.

Re: Sol Campbell on Wenger and Arsenal
He does make some fair points, although nothing we haven't read before from journalists and ex-players.
The general consensus seems to be that Arsenal must sign three or four players and that the current squad is not quite good enough, but I disagree with that notion. I believe that this current squad has a good blend of experience and youth and only needs one or two offensive additions for it to be competitive again.

Re: Sol Campbell on Wenger and Arsenal
I like his assessment on power struggle up top and Wenger personality & methodology.
He's right that the power struggle will keep going for sometimes. We have the owner and 2nd largest shareholder whose visions & directions are very different, it's hard to see Usmanov back down since he has the money & passion. This is bad not only for Wenger but the club and fans in general.
Wenger personalities & methodologies; it explains why Pat Rice was his right hand man for so long while other ex players could really be considered. Pat is worker bee type and never strikes me as someone who would question authorities.
Agree with Jay, the transfer target need to be selected carefully and only two or three at most.
It's strange how much influence Japan has on Wenger, given the man was there only for one year.

Re: Sol Campbell on Wenger and Arsenal
Agree with almost everything he says, though, why say we are "almost certainly" in CL already? We aren't.
