THE WENGER THREAD

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.

Erm, before we lost to Sp*rs, we'd won the previous 3 league games, hadn't we? :?

Get Wenger Out now! He is embarrassing our club and it will never improve and we are on a downward hill from now on. Of course the board won't change anything as they are so far up his arse as he brings them so much money. Pissed off :(

Hmmmm they were all probably trying to get him when Arsenal were declining. I still think he'll go to a top quality team when he leaves Arsenal

His reputation alone would probably let him walk into a very good job when he finally goes but not one where he is immune to criticism and pressure for success - PSG and many others would have no qualms hiring him and sacking him after a year.

I listened to his interview on TalkSport and he was much more diplomatic than the article says, which is the usual crap that the print media do. He more or less said that the standards of players have dipped and as a result the results have as well. Can't really argue with that, however, there is the argument that he could and should augment his tactics to the players that he has which he hasn't done.

For me that is the absolute crux of the issue. Wenger is still trying to play an open expansive form of Barca-Lite tippy tappy, but with players that don't have the technical ability, the mental strength or the hunger and drive to play that style. A pragmatic manager would look at the players he has and try to work out a system that plays to their strengths, not do what Wenger has done in trying to wedge players into a system they can't play and often playing players out of position in a failed attempt to impliment the system.
