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.

There is a saying that you get what you deserve in life and it is very hard to dismiss the feeling that this blind adulation of wenger doesn't deserve to be continually kicked in the bollox like this - if any person feels that they are beyond reproach and that everything they say will be taken as gospel, then you couldn't really blame them for being dismissive of their followers by continually lying to them can you ? :roll:
It's cult like their devotion of him. There is absolutely nothing he could do that would sway their opinion that he is the only man to manage the club. I can't even have a 2 minute conversation with one of them before my heads starts to explode, it just beggars belief. How can so many fans be so content with what's going on? It's truly bizarre.
You are right mate but its not just Arsenal fans that are like that.

I've lost count of the number or supposed ''oppostion fans'' I've come across in recent years who have defended Wenger to me. The tired old ''you can't criticise Wenger after all he's done for the club'' bollocks comes out time and time again. There is mentions of the stadium, hands being tied, Abramovich, Leeds, Portsmout and Rangers etc. :banghead:

Its all twisted. I sit in the pub with mates these days slagging off Wenger and our club and they tell me I'm wrong. I've said to them '' What the fuck is happening here? You're meant to slag us off and I'm meant to defend us. NOT the other way round ffs''

I can only think too many people are intimidated by what they perceive to be intelligence and are afraid to disagree as they fear it makes them look stupid. Maybe I'm too thick to see just how right Wenger is :lol:

Look at the top rated comments underneath :roll:

Wenger hasn't failed arsenal or lied or pocketing loads of cash by not signing anyone. He just hasn't excelled in finding the striker that we needed! But I'm sorry... Start insulting wenger and your not a gooner. Go support city! Best arsenal manager EVER!

Arsene knows.

The bottom line is that no one knows what Wenger was doing in terms of transfers, so we should trust the man to get it done and announce it when finalised. If the players you want are unavailable, then don't blow your money on players who are no better.

This is my fave


On top of all of this... we need to remember there is also a January transfer window! Let's hang in there Gunners!! Hopefully Arsene will go after Higuain then

It's at this point most sane and rational people would think there is something very wrong at the club to have rival fans defending him and simultaneously cheering each contract renewal.

I disagree, Arsenal have the most passive deluded fans in the country imo. Have a ganders at the comments on that DailyFail article. :banghead:

AOC on Gary Neville as a pundit:

“He’s my favourite pundit. I always do want to listen to what he has to say on the television and, nine times out of 10, I agree with everything he says."

I wonder if these "nine times out of 10" coincide with any of Neville's critiques of Wenger?

I've experienced something similar with a couple of Bar Codes fans at work, 'looks how much he's done' and 'wish we had as good a manager' etc, funnily enough though when you asked if their club were in the exact same situation for year after year the subject gets changed.

I have to say i think most fans from other clubs must be having a right old laugh at us and hoping to hell AW is immortal :banghead:

I see arse licker John Cross is having a pop at Paul Merson for insulting John's lover Arsene. According to cross, Wenger never cheated the fans :banghead: this prick(and many like him) are the problem. They will never give an accurate depiction of things at the club, and are willing to blindly defend Wenger, what a terrible Journalist Cross is and he is such a weak prick that he jumps on the bandwagon to bash us in February/March when we are knocked out of the money league.

He is licking arse because he is also a member of the Arsenal tete. He had written a book about Wenger. I heard him hawking it on A Bergkamp Wonderland podcast. It's why you don't get many people critical of Arsenal because they are almost always also on the gravy train.

Welbeck is what he is,but club knew he was injured but outrageous arrogance (le Coq) decided to deceive and ignore and decide we didn't need to do anything. :cussing: Anyone else have friends who don't support Arsenal but think we are a fucking joke with this

I agree, but I find Cross the worse of the lot, as most journalists will hide from asking serious questions, but in his case, he will lie and try to defend the indefensible. It's funny that with all the ridiculous shit Merson comes out with, Cross picked the one time that Merson was 100% right and tried to ridicule Merson's "fans were cheated" comment. With this shoddy level of Journalism, i can only imagine what his Wenger book must be like. There is probably a whole chapter devoted to the mental strength shown in our win away at Newcastle to secure the VT :banghead:
