I think you're all being dreadfully unfair and as we speak I'm putting together my "Who'd heard of Van Persie 8 years ago" banner to restore our pride for the visit to Old Trafford in a couple of weeks

Perhaps the Title of this thread should be re-named The Wenger / Bould Points of View, because in the post match intervbiew he was giving the same old spiel...

How are we all going to celebrate when Wenger gets his contract extension ?

I was thinking more of a Real fans have real patience dinner and piss up

Then a shit in the post!!

We'd have to ensure we drank lots of Guinnes and all had vindaloo specials...so it would be nice and smelly!

Of course there is no way to know how well Moyes would do until he actually did the job. Who had heard of Wenger? The legend George Graham had hardly set the managerial world on fire before he was appointed. No one can predict success or failure in the management game. Who’d have thought a footballing genius like Chippy Brady would be such an appallingly shit manager?

Personally, I don’t think Moyes would succeed at a top tier club like Arsenal - and I don’t give a shit what all the doomsters say about we are no longer a big club blah blah blah - the truth is we are and a job at that level carries its own baggage. Not everyone is cut out for it.

BUT!

I’m more than willing to let Moyes have a crack at it. Anyone, almost. I just want Wenger gone. I love and respect Arsene for what he achieved here between 1997 and 2006, and always will, but he is so far past his sell by date as Arsenal manager it ain’t fucking funny.

Please, Arsene. Please leave.

i think waving the white hankies like the italians do would be good - we surrender !

Totally agree mate - nobody knows how Moyes would do at us until it happens. Just like Wenger. Just like Graham.
But I believe hed be a success.
He wouldn't disregard the FA cup and C Cup and may actually win us a pot........
He'd sort the fukin defense out and have us defending as a team. Boring? Possibly
I doubt very much there'd be this "Is there", "Isn't there" any money crap with Moyes. Hes not a fukin accountant like Wenger and hed want to make his own stamp and sign a marquee player or two to show intent.
New atmosphere, new hope, new ideas, united fans, a young progressive manager
Whats not to like about it?


Look at Mancini at City - when he took over at City, first thing he did was sort the defence and got them defending as a team. Going as far as playing without ANY forward players. (I know we have zero quality strikers but thats completely different )
Watched them at us in 2011 I think it was and they grinded out an awful 0-0. Shocking unambitious performance but effective and a lesson in defending.
I reckon Moyes could start from the back and sort us out defensively. A more direct approach. We need a different direction. Wengers tippy, tappy aimless shit has failed.

I can't imagine a worse mistake than a total rebuild, based on negativity, just before sponsorship renewal

I see Whinger is up to his old trick of trying to detract attention from last nights result, by making a controversial statement regarding trophies and priorities.
The man is beyond contempt, a pathetic excuse for human being who still thinks that the football world is hanging on his every word. When in fact they are laughing behind his back, he simply isn't a "player" anymore.
Fuck but I hate him with a passion, and more and more each passing day.
His achievements, for me are outweighed by his failures and I wish he had never become involved in our club.

[the playing mantis]

the media crapon about how good he is in the transfer market, and can spot talent and polish it. is he? really? the amount of shite he has signed, both for good money and cheap is huge. sure hes signed some crakers but so have most other managers. i would like someone with the time and inclination to list all his signings and it wouldnt be interesting to judge of those who has been a success, or a failure or inbetween. imo aw's transfer nous has been completly eroded and is now a myth.

[Have merged this with existing Wenger thread.]

I dont get it......They really must think we are total fools.
Gazidis says - 'Our target is not profit, it's to have success on the pitch.'
Yet Wenger says that - (and I'm paraphrasing) - finishing 4th in the Prem is better than winning an FA Cup or C1 Cup trophy.

Surely thats a contradiction? Surely "success" (especially after 7 years of failure) would be winning (or even fukin trying to win) a domestic cup?

I can understand why Wenger went the route of blooding and trying new, young prospects in the C. Cup when he started his "project". But never understood why he did it in the FA Cup with Arsenals long and glorious tradition and history in this competition. His project is over, failed (the signings of Arteta, Mert, Podolski, Cazorla atest to that as none are 17 and French/African). and to still persist treating the FA Cup with such contempt is unforgiveable.

Can we just now put the "Is there money" or "isn't there money" question to bed......
As stated at the AGM by Gazidis - "we certainly do make money available in every window'
As stated by Wenger when asked what he'd do with £100 million - "Give it back"

FFS everyoneknows Wenger wont spend - its his vanity project ffs. If he spent it would be an admission of defeat. Wenger ego wont allow him to admit defeat - gracefully or otherwise.

And as for this whole "self-sustainability" policy.......I 100% believe that this is down to Wenger.
He advocates and promotes it to make it look like hes a visionary and years ahead of everyone else. (Just like everyone raved about him when he came to us and made Adams eat pasta, train properly and not glug water but instead sip it )
Obviously Ivan and silent Stan lap this up as it give them a cloak to make more money, sell our captains, put up ticket (and fish n chips ) prices and spend feck all.
Course they love Arsene. Where else would you get a manager that doesn't want any money , does "just enough" to keep the fans onside, the media love and has this mysterious aura about him that hes some kind of prophet.

Pfffft what a feckin joke.

The only thing that I'm pleased to hear is that we are now playing for 5 trophies every season - yep you heard it from the Self Harmer's own mouth.

Can anyone else beat our proud trophy winning record:

Arsenal FC - The 3rd and 4th place virtual trophy winners 2006-2012
