    to be honest I think it is a quality manager that we would be able to attract (more so than players)

    with a manager they are often looking for a challenge and unlike players not always looking for immediate success

    the chance to build something in their own vision is what managers get a major buzz......as long as they have the backing of the board (shit.......listen to me......sounds like someone we know??)

    You haven't said anything, other than knock down the opinion of all and sundry with one stroke, so I have no idea what you think. Hence why I asked the question.

    Well, I don't want Wenger sacked (yet) but imo it would be awful if he went to another club. United have a (possibly) better manager but if Chelsea or City got hold of him it'd be a bloodbath, all that money along with his ability to get the best out of players (which he does have, despite all claims to the contrary) and a team would be scary.

    Ofc, he'd never go so it's all academic.

    Of course I'd be upset. He's the best manager in the world and a dangerous weapon for the enemy to steal.

    Not saying he's the best, but he's definitely in the top 1.


    Someone said that once, I think it was Nigel Clough.

    Tbh, he's been there for so long, I can't remember Arsenal before him. I'm only 22. To me, he is Arsenal.

    If you remembered Arsenal before Wenger you'd appreciate him even more (which makes it even more shocking how people disrespect him on here if you ask me, despite the frustrations of the last few years he doesn't deserve that).
    But he's not the best manager in the world. Up there though.

    Even Birmingham have won something since 2005
    Interesting stat that and I believe that is a very telling one as well. Im surprised nobody has commented on this. It sure isnt easy to win them but how long has it been now, 6 years? We havent progressed one bit while you could argue that all our rivals have.

    Wenger does his own fair share of disrespecting the fans with his bullshit about team spirit and building for the future, etc, etc, ad nauseum. The trouble he's got is fewer and fewer fans believe a word that comes out of his mouth. He asked for time and he got it, he got far more patience than he would have enjoyed at our (alleged) competitors. I doubt even Fergie would have survived the garbage Wenger has served up over the last few years, the calls for him to be put out to pasture would have been deafening. As for Chelsea, City and Pool, we all know the story there and yet for all their turmoil two of those clubs came back and finished above us as we conspired to throw the season away again. What we witnessed (again) this year was a shocking failure and if a manager's position can't be questioned after a performance like that then when is it valid to asks questions? Should he go? Of course he should. That's what happens to managers who fail in this game. Should he be allowed to stay based on past glories? No. That's not how it happens in this game.

    For those who forgive his every fuck up because we as fans don't really know what's happening inside the club - WHO CARES? We do know what's happening in the pitch and it's not good enough, not by a long shot. And whatever some fans mistakenly believe, yes we are entitled to comment on what goes on on the pitch. And the people who have paid a fortune to sit there and watch it while their money is used to keep the club running, absolutely they have a say. In fact their say should rank above all others. Anyone who wants to sit their with their mouth taped shut regardless of what happens simply because they feel inadequate, fine go ahead, but don't be trying to impose your head-burying antics on the rest of us. You don't need a coaching badge to realise how bad we were in the title run-in this year, and last year, and the year before, and the year before. How many times should Wenger be allowed to fail? Is that what we're in this game for, to fail? Again and again and again it's been said it's not the lack of trophies that irritates the hell out of some fans. It's the decline in the standard of football, the failure to correct obvious problems, the self-evidently flawed transfer policies and the sheer fucking arrogance coming out of the boardroom and the manager's office. So fine, if Wenger and his cronies want respect then it's a two way street. About time somebody at the club started paying attention to the fans again, the fans being the paying customers who keep the whole damn operation running. And if they want respect then they'd better start earning it, the manager, the players, teh board, the fucking lot of them. How are you meant to respect an outfit the capitulates so readily, if the instruction is to respect losers then the resounding response it no, no fucking way.
