It's not hard to understand why Arsenal have begun to slide down the table given all those names you listed in the departures department, but at some point Wenger's got to do something with the considerable talent he's still got on the team. If he can't make something happen, then it's probably time to start over with a new manager. As for who should replace him, maybe Paul Lambert? As a Norwich supporter, too, I'm sure he'd leave Villa in a second to coach Arsenal...but I don't think Arsenal fans would be very happy about it.

As for Walcott, he reminds me of a fast Mario Gomez (and I love Gomez). He is fantastic when he is on his game, but when something big is on the line he tends to disappear. I don't quite get the rationale for giving Walcott such a big payday.
