THE WENGER THREAD
Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Will we ever be rid of the fucking cancer that is Wenger, eating away at every last bit of pride we have left. I have never hated a manager or player of any club as much as I loathe and despise this man.

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Absolutely ridiculous that we have got progressively worse at defending over the last 4 years especially and Wenger has happily let it continue to the point where nobody's surprised to see the likes of Fulham come and bag three goals.
Any person even masquerading as a football manager would have tried to do something about it.

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Found a great quote from another Arsenal forum.
Do you think this fella is a AKB by any chance?

I'm pleased with the fight and determination showed in the second half so well done boys.

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Totally correct. Wenger is to blame. This not about having the money to compete with the Moaners or Chavs, we cannot even out play the likes of Norwich, Fulham or QPR. This man is a total joke now and simply brings embarrassment on the Club with his ridiculous post match interviews. Please, please, please get him out of our Club. He is slowly but surely killing it.N1Goon wrote:How much longer will the board be used as a scapegoat to cover Wenger's failures?
Did Kroenke force Wenger to buy Gervinho instead of Huntelaar? I could go on, but Christ, the pro-Wenger bullshit that is spouted on blogs and podcasts such as Arseblog and Footballistically Arsenal is a joke. Posh twats

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Does the guy really believe all the excuses he makes or does the man simply have no shame? 
Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Not just the board mate. Theres a list of excuses as long as your fukin arm ..............N1Goon wrote:How much longer will the board be used as a scapegoat to cover Wenger's failures?:
Manyou
Man Shitty
FFP
The ref
The pitch
The players
The ACN
The CL midweek game
The International break
Injuries
Tiredness
Special circumstances
But one things for sure - you'll never hear Wenger getting blamed for anything. You will hear shit like......."I know he isn't perfect but..." or "Yes he has made mistakes but......" but my favourite is - "I'm not an AKB but...."

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Wenger has said the following, after the Fulham game:
Wenger: 'We have shown that we can fight' 
"on his emotions after the game…
It was frustrating because we had the opportunities to win the game. We were caught in a bit too comfortable a position because we did the most difficult thing - we scored two goals to go 2-0 up, we were at home and yet at half-time we found ourselves at 2-2. At that moment we lacked urgency defensively. In the second half we gave absolutely everything and I have to give credit to the players, in the last three games what they have done physically is amazing. Even at 3-2 down we didn't give up and continued to go forward and we had the chances to win the game.
on the missed penalty…
We had a penalty to win but you cannot blame Arteta for that. It is part of the game. Who hasn't missed a penalty? From there it finished 3-3 and the positives are that we can score goals now. The negatives are to concede three goals at home of course, and the chances we gave away, defensively it wasn't an historical performance.
on the defending from both sides…
No [it was not crazy], I would say first of all both teams are good going forward. Secondly I feel where we are most guilty is on the corner [for the first Fulham goal] because you are 2-0 up, it can happen with Berbatov who is good, he can create chances, but nobody jumped for the ball at all, we just let them score the goal. When you play at home… it doesn't often happen when we play away from home that we score goals like that.
on whether Cazorla wanted to take the penalty…
Cazorla is second on the list, the No 1 is Arteta. If he doesn't take it it's Cazorla, or if Arteta wants to leave it to Cazorla. Cazorla wanted to take the ball. Arteta is No 1 on the priority.
on the penalty decision…
Honestly I don't know [if it should have been given]. I would only go for deliberate handball for penalties. We conceded a penalty last week at Manchester United, it was similar, it was more protection than deliberate handball. I am more for deliberate handball because after that, when do you give them and when don't you give them?
on whether his squad has self-doubt…
No, I don't think so. I believe we had physically some moments in the game today that you could see we have played three tough games - we played Saturday, Tuesday and we needed a little breather. Some players were a bit jaded before the game. They gave it their all today but Fulham are good going forward, as well.
on solving defensive problems…
We have just to keep working on that but it will be difficult now this week because everybody goes away.
on a possible second yellow for Sidwell…
He could have given him a second yellow and Ramsey could have got one as well.
on Walcott's substitution...
Walcott has a glute muscle problem. We nearly took him off at half-time, he nearly went down, but we left him on. In the end, it got worse. At the moment, he is limping so I do not know whether he will be able to join the national team or not.
on the international break...
What I can do is pray that everybody comes back in good health.
on being adrift in the title race...
That is not an ideal situation. We have shown before we can fight and again today that we can fight. There are a lot of positives in our team. At the moment, we do not get the points we want. Of course, we now do not have to waste any more time, but I still feel there is good potential in our side.
on Giroud...
Giroud had a very good game, he had presence and won the long balls. He is dangerous and starts to have belief in what he is doing. There were a lot of positives in his game today."
The c u n t is living in La la land.

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
Painful today again, we clearly have no plan defensively from set pieces or open play and Fulham deservedly score 3. You can't legislate for missing a penalty but frankly it wasn't a pen, we didn't deserve to win and in any case needing to score 4 goals to win a game at home to Fulham is a joke. Either we struggle to create anything (Sunderland etc) or we look like shipping in every time the opposition get the ball in our half (today), or both (Schalke, United).
Stark contrast to United who were off-colour but through pro-active substitutions and spirit/fortitude (HA) force another 3 points.
There's been a bit of a lag because we've still held onto our reputation and that has meant half of our home games in the past few years have been won before the match started. Exactly like how 80% of teams turn up at OT to get their bellies tickled and roll over for Ferguson (us included!). Now teams are realising that anybody is capable of getting a result at our place and the past few months has seen the likes of Wigan, Norwich, Schalke and Fulham (amongst others) come and tear our defence to shreds.
We might well be good enough still for 4th because the competition is pretty poor but frankly who gives a fuck?
This man has to leave the club, it's so fucking obvious he's holding us back and we're never going to rise again under him.

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.
The problem is perfectly illustrated by todays round of Premier League games.
We go and blow a 2-0 lead to go 3-2 down before eventually stumble towards a draw. The defense has reverted to type and become an absolute shambles and once again we have shown our lack of bottle (and any plan B).
ODL hails the team as a mentally strong an up for the fight despite all the evidence to the contrary.
Purple noses team find themselves 2-0 down at Villa and in response he makes all out attacking substitutions to try and add more threat up front. One of his substitutes scores a hat trick including the winner from a certain Van Judas ball into the box. The game finishes 2-3 despite the Manure defence being shambolic at best- you can bet the hairdryer was on full blast at Half Time in that game.
Its sad really that all this talk of mental strength just goes to show that we have a real lack of it

Wenker is a busted flush, something that RVP, Cesc, et al realised and left to further their career rather than sacrifice themselves for however many more years we still have to suffer.
Arsenal men such as Bob Wilson, Frank Mc Lintock, Tony Adams, Wrighty, Merson, Parlour, Stewart Robson have all voiced concerns but still no-one within the club can question Wenker or get him to accept that it has to change.
