The call for more signings by fans has become more serious after Arsenal were held to a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium by Liverpool on Monday night.
Both sides had their chances but none was able to leave with more than a point. Arsenal were a bit unlucky with the referee's decision when Aaron Ramsey's eighth-minute goal was adjudged offside. It was a wrong judgement which even made Arsene Wenger furious.
It was the second time in a week that Brendan Rodger's side would benefit from errors on the part of match officials. Last week, Christian Benteke gave them a 1-0 win against Bournemouth via an offside goal but nothing was done. It was Arsenal's turn to suffer such last night.
"It was a regular goal. I can't see why it was cancelled," said Wenger.
"It was clear. Liverpool can't complain on that front after the last week.
"I could see, live, that he could not be offside because he started behind.
"From the timing. I thought maybe the angle on television would be different, but it was not."
Even though that result was a disappointing one for Arsenal, there were still some positives from the match. Petr Cech had a good day. He made a series of superb saves without which we would have lost that game woefully.
Petr Cech made eight saves to add to his number of clean sheets. He now has 163 clean sheets, second to only David James with 169 clean sheets in the history of the Premier League.
The Czech Republic international kept only one clean sheet in his final 9 Premier league matches against Liverpool when he was at Chelsea. Now he has one clean sheet in one game versus Liverpool.
This same guy was heavily criticised in the last two weeks after conceding some goals. Some fans even wanted him dropped but as we speak, these same people are already calling him a hero.
Don't be mad when people throw stones at you and call you names because you failed at something. Just bend down, pick up the stones and build a beautiful castle with them.
The same people who called you names will call the castle beautiful names.
Remember, stones are not thrown at barren trees. People only stone trees with fruits. So be cool whenever they stone or gossip about you. It's because you've got beautiful fruits they want to stone down.
Hoping to see Arsene Wenger sign one or two players before the transfer window finally shuts. Good morning and have a nice day.
