As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Still think it's time to shower some more abuse on the best manager Arsenal ever had?
Still think Arsene Wenger's useless, clapped out, broken, shot, outmoded, gone, past it?
Still think he's a relic? Still think he's living on past glories?
On balance, I'm guessing probably not.
What you have come to expect from Oliver Holt. I was angry about Gervinho and Diaby stealing a living off our club, but f*ck me, they earn their money more then this excuse for a 'journalist'. This man is a disgrace to writers all over the world, he should be barred from getting published.

typical dictatorship politics: when the people is starving to death, you throw them a little bone and they get down on their knees in prayer... same as a win against the worst team in the league

People like him ignore the fact that fans have been losing patience and turning against Wenger steadily since 2008, and that the media as a whole have done more than anybody to perpetuate this X years since a trophy mockery of us, yet when there is a sizeable voice amongst the fans in late 2012 suddenly we're fickle and it's based on a few bad results???? And then he has the temerity to suggest that one result against the worst team in the league (which despite cruising at 4-0 we still made work of) has proved everybody wrong.
Journalists like seeing Arsenal 15 points off the top, hence a huge number of them being happy with Wenger being in charge. Every fan thinks the media hate them but I personally felt we got far more praise as a club and for our football when we stopped winning things but were playing good stuff than when we were dicking all and sundry.
You think that article is bad - just fucking wait until we get into the Virtual Trophy places. I had some Liverpool fan at work saying to me today "all that success and all you lot do is moan about Wenger - you're fifth"
There are also thousands and thousands of AKBs that have been keeping a bit of a low profile lately but you just wait if we go fourth - the "There's Only One Arsene Wenger" song will be sung loud and proud and the anti-Wenger groans will be jumped upon in the stadium
Everyone's kidding themselves thinking the end is nigh for Wenger. Haven't we seen all this before?

Psychology of the Cult in action.
They were told that 4th is the NEW trophy. They now accept that as a fact.
So Usmanov speaks and says that Wenger was hamstrung by the board - here is what Dear Leader has now said -
Speaking ahead of Saturday's Barclays Premier League trip to Wigan, Wenger said: "I believe I have always had the support from the board, and am very grateful for that. We have worked over the years in respecting in what we did, which is to always work within our financial resources.
"Therefore we made decisions which from outside looked not based on purely footballing reasons, but it was based as well on financial reasons."
What a muppet he is! He had a get out of jail free card there.

I dont give a flying fcuk what he says - it doesnt explain how he spunked money on the forehead (and what is looking likely to have wasted money on giroud) nor does it explain his shocking ineptitude on tactical and motivational aspects
He has certainly added exceptional players lately..........Klingon, Squillaci, Giroud, Santos, Park, Chamakh, Koscielny and Mertesacker have all proved to be world beaters.
Supagoon wrote:"if we can add ...exceptional players"
he said that last time, and the time before that
That quote goes back to the end of the 2008 season. Must be the same "one or two exceptional players" he's spent nearly 5 years searching for. U2 found what they were looking for long before our useless Goon has
