Wenger is deadwood the club is carrying. Does the board not realise, that as Paul Merson said, a thousand managers could get this team in the top 4. Its not like we have rubbish and incapable players. The issue is however, they are not responding to Wenger in a positive manner.

They are too comfortable, and seem to have their positions guaranteed at the club. If Giroud were at Chelsea, City and United, his position as the clubs leading striker would be at the minimum, under pressure. However, we have given him 4 years as the unrivaled number 1 striker. He has gone 10 games without scoring a goal - is there going to be any fall out from this failure? Or does Wenger brush it under the carpet?

Another is Walcott, who is easily the worst wide player at the club. Joel Campbell is miles better than Theo. Technically, tactically, and in effort given. The fact Theo is still preferred in the pecking order over Campbell is horrible judgement. Campbell has 3 goals in 15 games, whilst Theo has 4 in 21, and how many times was Campbell subbed, or came of the bench in those 15 appearances? Just because Theo has been at the club 10 years, means F all. In fact, despite playing for Arsenal for 10 years, he looks less of a true Arsenal player less than Campbell who has played 24 games for the club.

Gabriel im still optimistic for. He has shown quality, but is in horrible form. So why isnt Chambers playing given his great performance against Leicester City? Why is Chambers being used in matches against Hull, rather than must win games in the premiership? Why is Joel Campbell playing against Hull, rather than must win games in the premiership.

So it snot only Wengers inability to motivate players, and find solutions to deal with pressure, but his tactical and team selections are so horrible.

4am, can't fucking sleep. My heart is beating at about a thousand beats a second I'm so angry. It's hammering through my rib cage. The hatred I have for that man is all consuming and I think defeat on Saturday may see me off before I get the chance to see him off. Anytime the camera panned to him tonight my blood literally boiled, this is seriously not good for my health. He is SCUM :banghead:

looking at economics from Stan's view, isn't paying off the last part of this year's contract and next years at £10 million cheaper than losing the VT/CL spot? Stan, you are a great business man, you are in danger of losing out on CL revenue, fire the guy.

Why would Arsole Wonga walk away?

In his mind, he does nothing wrong!! This is a serious comment, he genuinely believes it is other peoples fault, always. The man loves himself so much he is beyond accountability. He will NEVER EVER walk away from Arsenal. All of Krankys sporting teams vary from shit to mediocre, why will it bother him that Arsenal are part of that list? As long as the money rolls in to pay for the next 'super ranch' then he won't even bat an eyelid! He's just moved a major sporting team to another city FFS, he has no loyalty or morals, just greed and our manager is equally there on the greed stakes. Leeches the two of them. A new contract is coming for the God 'Wonga'

Where's Spooky to cheer us all up???

Seriously as the last decade has unfolded and Wenger has survived disaster after disaster I really believed we were stuck with him till he left at his leisure. After last night I am no longer so sure. A loss on Saturday is going to see the heat intensify further and should we lose to Hull (a very real possibility) his position will become untenable. Before, games against teams like Swansea, would be his get out of jail moment or there would be an international break or a big manager would lose his job, something to take the focus off him. Not this time, this could be the beginning of his end :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: .

It's criminal how this bloke is still in charge.

You could have easily secured Pep I reckon but he wasn't going to wait until Wenger steps down.

The players just don't have belief under him. Also he knows that you are desperate for a centre back, a midfielder like Kante or Schneiderlin and a world class striker.

Yet come the summer he will probably just sign some technical French midget number 10.

It's farcical. I wanted you lot, Spurs or Leicester to win the league and right now only the Foxes look like doing it.

To my mind, most of our players are finished. I would keep about half a dozen, the rest can go with him.

We'll ignore the Spurs line... :D Leicester are acceptable.

Wenger has created a culture at the club, both in terms of playing style and in terms of character. If you just look at our capitualtions since 07-08 and realise that even with the turnover of players, the same thing keeps happening, you have to look at the constant things at the club.

This reasoning does not apply to those who think the world only began in 1996. :lol:

I felt better after getting that off my chest and managed a few hours sleep in the end.

Kept it in my jocks though in solidarity with the limp dicks that shamed the jersey last night :banghead:

He's just said in an interview that "we need to be more realistic about our title chances now, we cannot dream" So there you have it, pretty much thrown in the towel. Cannot compete with the new GIANT clubs, Leicester & spurs :banghead: :banghead:

Next year will be spurs, Chelsea, both Manchester clubs, Everton perhaps...... the battle for 6th place will be our new 4th.
