Can Arsene Wenger turn things around at Arsenal?

On Saturday afternoon, two teams struggling for form go head-to-head as Arsenal take on Aston Villa.Arsenal's season went from bad to worse on Tuesday night when they were beaten 3-1 by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Gunners' fans need to be a bit more realistic.By all rights, Bayern should have won the Champions League last season.They are a fantastic side with some amazing players and to be quite honest, it was men against boys for most of the match.Arsenal are no longer the force they once were and perhaps a bit of realism wouldn't go amiss among Gunners supporters.But their frustration is understandable and perhaps Arsene Wenger could help his own cause by admitting that some of the players he's bought just simply haven't been good enough for Arsenal.

Players like Andre Santos, Andrey Arshavin, Sebastien Squillaci and Marouane Chamakh haven't been consistent, but it's as if Wenger is too stubborn to admit he's wrong.There's a lot of pressure on Wenger right now, but Arsenal fans should be careful what they wish for.If Wenger leaves Arsenal, or gets sacked, who could bring the same stability and financial growth he has overseen during his time in London? In my opinion, there's no one.

Arsenal need a result on Saturday and they'll fancy their chances against Aston Villa.
If Villa are to have any chance of a result, then Christian Benteke will have to play like a man possessed.The big Belgian has been one of the bright spots in another season of struggle for Villa.
Without his goals, they'd be marooned at the bottom of the Premier League.

Benteke is more than capable of causing problems for the struggling Arsenal defence, and the Gunners would be foolish to underestimate the talented striker.The consequences of Saturday's game are huge for both clubs.If Arsenal lose their third home game in a week, they could slip to sixth in the league.If Aston Villa lose at the Emirates, they could slip into the bottom three.
It's gonna be tense, tight and nail-biting, but the home side should just, just win.
