    More than just a little happy with the 3-0 victory for Arsenal today. Good to see Lacazette back from injury, and getting a goal, as well.

    Caught the later stages of the game, noticed Gunners were playing with two up top. Do we know whether Wenger is going or staying.

    Yep, they started with Welbeck, who was eventually taken off for Lacazette. Aubameyang has played in a two up top-solution before at Dortmund, which probably was Wenger's thinking to do, as well.

    No news on wether Wenger is going or staying, which will (most likely) mean that he stays for another season. Will be VERY surprised if anything happens.

    Your team needs rebuilding though until a new manager arrives makes no sense to spend more money. Wenger is safe in that the powers that be want an efficiently run business, which for the most part Wenger has provided.

    Rebuilding will come in one shape or the other. Ramsey and Wilshere are on outgoing contracts (and are not necessarily likely to sign another), Mertesacker is retiring, and Koscielny is touch-and-go from game to game, with his injuries. Head of recruitment, Sven Mislintat looks like getting more to say as far as transfers go. Can't see getting Aubameyang being a Wenger decision alone.

    Wenger won't leave at the end of the season. They'll just let him go out his current contract. If the right candidate isn't available after next season, I can even see them letting Wenger continue beyond that - given the results are stable. Sounds crazy, I know, but looking at the current ownership of the club, change isn't likely at all.

    Consolidation sometimes works unfortunately 5 teams are ahead of Arsenal now, they will drop further if nothing changes looking at it objectively

    There's no doubt about that! However, the Kroenke's won't see it that way. They earn their money, CL or no CL. Same situation for all the clubs under the Kroenke ownership, apparently.

    Here's an idea:

    Given the title is won how about West Brom offer to pay Pep's wages for the last 6 games of the season and let him have a crack?

    6 wins would leave them on 38 points which might well be enough and we would finally answer the question 'Is Pep really all that when he isn't working with the best squad of players in the league?'

    Might even be a way to reinvigorate the league completely. At the halfway point everyone swaps managers so top gets bottom's manager and vice versa, 2nd gets 2nd from bottom's etc.

    So instead of a dull procession to the title from game 19 you'd have City under Pardew, Utd under Paul Lambert and Liverpool under Mark Hughes whilst Pep, Jose and Jurgen had to scrap it out in a dogfight at the bottom.

    Reckon it would be cracking entertainment especially games 17, 18 and 19 where you'd have teams at the bottom deliberately losing so they wound up getting a top manager. Game 19 would be especially tense for those in 17th, 16th and 15th all trying to dodge ending up with Wenger for the 2nd half of the season.

    Haha, what a league PL could have been with that solution! Arsenal with Carlos Carvalhal would be refreshing. He's a quote machine!

    Carvahal at Arsenal and they would have more than half a sniff at getting top 4. Particularly given Spurs and Chelsea would be lumbered with Hodgson and Moyes!!

    That's very true! Really like Carvahal. He rarely stays at the same place long, but that shouldn't be held against him as far as future manager jobs is concerned.

    Think I would impose a rule where no one is allowed to sack a manager too. Actually a draft system of managers at the start of every season might shake things up a bit and would expose who could actually manage rather than just sign a chequebook.

    Why not take it a step further? All players and members of the coaching staffs, are drawn and randomly placed in each different team. A new draw could happen every month. Or perhaps before every new game?

    Rosenborg with yet a horrible performance, only managing 1-1 away against Odd. Already seven points behind leading Molde after three matches. Next up: at home against Molde. A must win for Rosenborg, this.

    I see Søderlund has returned. With Bendtner still there I should think the problems are not in the attacking compartment.

    Well, the problems are in the attacking department, actually (at least partly). Bendtner yet to score, and Søderlund used as a sub so far. Would be interesting to see them both start, but can't really see that happening. Mostly the problem is that they don't look as confident in their play, and the ball rarely ends up in the box, where Bendtner has his strengths. Add to that a shaky defence, and a midfield that's not at their best.

    Actually quite worried about their recent performances.

    Would hardly have thought that comes as a revelation if you're fielding a team with Bendnter up top?

    Well, Bendtner was actually the league's top scorer last season. The problems Rosenborg face now, is not because of him. You can compare it (a little bit) to the way Arsenal couldn't set up Giroud in the box as much as you'd wanted them to. Bendtner have been a good addition to the Rosenborg squad.

    Bendtner and Søderlund is not a great partnership. Two static targetmen together would give us less mobility and lack of numbers in other areas of the field.

    It would have worked great with a 4-3-4 with the two of them flanked with two wide players and a midfield three behind! Unfortunately that is not allowed... :P

    The 4-3-4 was what I was thinking about, but, as you mentioned, that isn't allowed in Rosenborg. Changing the formula is not something that will be well received at Brakka!
