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.

Anyone else notice Wenger only got up twice during the game, once to bitch at the 4th official over a heavy challenge, the other to put his big coat on.
The last time I remember him doing that was Monaco at home.
I have to look into his press conference, did he really use the word 'injustice''?
I imagine Cech is delighted with Clueless this morning, after hearing him say the error Ospina made could easily have been made by Cech.

You have to remember that every word feeds his disciples and festering a sense of injustice takes blame away from us. And more especially, him.

We need to get Wenger in the retirement home before another batch of players, namely Sanchez, are fed up with his sub par mediocrity & we regress into a feeder club again.

Losing players who get clued up to our lack of ambition is the real worry for me, the longer we stick with Wenger, the harder the job for the next manager will be.

Hes a crafty fecker isnt he- he will milk the Ospina or Cech for all its worth. It wasnt Ospina that lost it for us, but toilet play from almost all the team lacking any sort of motivation.

i reckon the media is the last hope of forcing Wenger out because the Arsenal supporters are certainly not capable these days

Watching him continually berate the fourth official for some imagined slight is the joke that never gets funny. When do you ever see the old fraud on the touchline, giving advice or instruction to any of his charges? No, just sit there with your hands under your arse or fiddle with the seventy-two zips on your latest coat.

I reckon the reason he doesn’t is because he hasn’t anything constructive to say; I mean literally nothing. The man whose tactical acumen extends to telling players to “express themselves”, the man whose opposition preparation is, well, nothing is the same man who continually blames bad luck for us shipping three goals at home over and over again. Yet he never seems to set about dealing with our glaring deficiencies.

He must be laughing inside because his continuous piss-taking out of our once-fine club is the longest running embarrassment in football. The day he leaves is the day I will fall off the wagon and have the mother of all piss-ups.

I'm beyond the point of caring now, I can't even get angry anymore - I just feel indifferent. Knowing he will continue to be our manager - probably until 2020 or beyond - just saps my enthusiasm.
This is how I feel now too.

And that's what's happening with the blinkered idiots who still insist on backing him and refuse to see that we are gone as a team. I still struggle sometimes to understand how it has got so bad, but his and the club's disregard for the fans is just totally unacceptable! Thanks for 1997 to 2005 but get your coat and slip quietly out the back door.
Forget telling him to get his coat-he'll still be at the club for a few years trying to zip the fucking thing up before he leaves!!

Kroenke bought himself a business..... AFC. That is what Arsenal is to him and to run a successful business you need a good manager. And that is what Wenger is, a business manager. A very prudent, tight fisted, obdurate, business manager. It will not be football failure that will spell the end of him but financial failure. An early CL exit this year and failure to get into it next year might be the first steps to getting shot of this business manager.

I wouldn't mind Rob, but the likes of Piers Morgan are heading the hashtag wanker brigade on Twitter. I listened to him on national radio this morning sounding off again after our latest calamity - no issue with that. What I have issue with is he (and the flock) showing utter forgiveness when we had our flirtation with the top of the table owing to fixture list quirk at the start of the season before last (when we sealed the Calendar Year Trophy).

Be sincere, be consistent - a few hashtag wankers that disappear up Wenger and Kroenke's joint bumhole when we flatten the likes of Bournemouth and West Brom isn't what we need.

30000 empty seats at the bowl on a Thursday night when we're playing Astana is what we need. The lack of corporate box sales and Diamond Club renewals if we finish outside the top 4 is what we need. Basically we can whine all we like but until that absolute c.unt of an owner fucks off with his investment in tatters we will be pawns in the game

Unfortunately Piers Morgan is the poster-boy for the anti-Wenger movement to a lot of outsiders.

Also unfortunately he is a complete bell-end whose fundamental views change like the wind and any Wenger devotees have a field day tarring everyone who criticises Wenger with the same brush.
