  Arshavin: All Arsenal players would leave if Wenger left

  Arsenal midfielder Andrey Arshavin says the club would collapse if ever Arsene Wenger was ever to leave.

  Arsenal have struggled to find top form since striker Robin van Persie suffered an ankle ligament injury while on international duty for Holland against Italy.

  Arshavin admits that the Gunners have badly missed the Dutch marksman, but insists that the players have faith in Wenger to find an able replacement and turn the side's fortunes around.

  "All the Arsenal players believe in him - and if he leaves they will all leave," he added. "It would be good if the club could sign some great players.

  "It is up to the manager to decide whether he will sign a new striker in January. I have my own ideas but I won't say what they are.

  "Since Robin got injured we have scored just two goals - it is a big problem."

  the arsenal board seem more interested in balancing their account.

  arsenal are really going nowhere with so many youngster in the team.

  they really play beautiful attacking football but is that alone enough?

  Arshavin is very outspoken, and speaks his mind rather freely. So it's not hard to get a response out of him.

  About his comments, it is true that losing Arsene Wenger would be a blow. Losing a manager like that is a blow to any club. But considering how fast fortunes change in the world of football, to say the total collapse of a football club is a bit strong. Besides, too many reasons why a club could collapse.

  If they know the meaning of real teamwork wether Wenger leave or stay they will be the best team ever. I always bet on them and they always win.

  Andrey Arshavin came to the rescue with a goal and a performance that made Robin Van Persie's absence a little easier to bear for Arsenal.

  what ash means of collapse is that the new manager will probably abandoned the youth policy in search of quick and success.

   

  even senior player will also loose out.
