Arsenal got very lucky today as their goals came from spot kick it is a win for them but it didn't came from an open play which was their main way to score goals as most balls would come through Ozl or Sanchez make a his usual run to box to score a goal not sure if Wenger is trying to change the way they play it's possible good tactics from them as we seen it before in world cup forgot witch nation used this plan but they surely had some success using it now they claimed to 7th spot just one point she from Tottenham in 4rth place and 6 from the top we saw in this round all of top 7 teams winning so no points changed between them but in the next one we should have an entertaining match when last year Champions Chelsea will hosts current most lethal offense Manchester City a game will be great one to mesure both teams strength and abilities.

I saw a video on Youtube that thru the years, Wenger has been changing the way Arsenal play. I'm gonna look for it and post it here, it's really interesting how Wenger evolved from the late 90's to now.

Basically the video was showing how Arsenal used to have a high attempted shots rate in the beginning and how that lowered as time passed by but without lowering the average no. of goals per season. Meaning the Arsenal today has lower attempts but they make it matter at each attempt.

Arsene Wenger is without doubt a very tactical and capable manager, the only problem is that Arsenal doesn't give him enough funds to build the club into greatness,look at how they tried to sign Lemar when they didn't want to offer 50M euro for his services but later were willing to pay 90M at the transfer deadline.They need to spend or will keep missing out on trophies.

No, it's more like Wenger doesn't like to spend on proven and 'mature' players. He prefers to buy them while they're cheap and young. It's only recently (the last 3 or 4 years I think) that he's been willing to bid on the expensive transfers. But he bids them a tad low, so he fails in getting them.

Is it just me or do any of you also think this is Wenger's last season with Arsenal?

I think that has changed a lot these past few years, Arsene Wenger is now spending money on proven players, The likes of Sanchez, Ozil, Lacazette are without doubt prove that Arsene Wenger has abandoned plans to sign unproven players but rather experienced ones who can lead him to trophies because he won the FA cup twice in the last three years.
