It makes me sick to read some of the bile on here. The man is a purist, who has the right footballing idea. He even got us to the champions league final. Yeah, results haven't been great recently, but HE NEEDS TIME! Wait until the stadium is paid off at least!!!
Welcome to the dark side CG. What took you so long?
My first post on here, almost a year to the day I guess this place starts taking its toll on you after a year
Good to know you've seen the light
I 'started asking questions' back in 2008, along the lines of "are we confident Wenger is still the best person for this club?". These days my questions are more along the lines of "when is this arrogant prat going to fuck off?"
The club is stuck in limbo as long as Wenger continues to linger around like a vegan's fart
Arsene Wenger has confirmed he prevented Mathieu Debuchy from joining Manchester United on loan.
Wenger added it would require unusual circumstances for him to send a player out to a club he views as a rival.
"You loan players out to clubs who do not have the resources, but not to direct opponents," Wenger said.
"There was nothing shocking in that and it's true, I stand up for that.
"I was surprised. I can understand it (United trying to sign Debuchy) but I found it logical to block the loan."
So not ok to loan players to your rivals but perfectly ok to sell them some of your best players
so what about VAN JUDAS mr wenger
That's rubbish in one way,(oops, not the immediate post above) at least with a loan player you can stipulate that he doesn't play against you, not that I'm saying he should loan him there, but as said already, what about half our players who have gone off to our rivals and won the title with them?

Looks like I was right all along.
He was supposed to have the new contract sorted "before Christmas", then it was "the new year".
But he actually waited until we had actually won it and "announced" it on the wembley pitch ffs.
Now I know theres those among you who insisted his contract was done and dusted loooong before that. Possibly, but he didnt actually put pen to paper until that FA Cup was in the bag.
A welcome end to our trophy drought but a poisoned chalice none-the-less.
Apologies accepted.
I Blame Gibbs -Had he not headed that ball off the line they would have had a 3 goal lead and we would have Lost... BUT Wenger would be gone...
Well done to TOF; his dickless wonders couldn't score in a brothel today and now we're stuck with a replay we could have done without.
We always do things the hard way. We never learn
Now for the reaming at Barcelona that will traumatise TOF's little lambs as we conspire to bottle the league and FA Cup, the fucking losers.

Not necessarily. He may not have left had we bottled the final
No I do mean the swiss - You know how they AND the Austrians like to keep it in the family....something to do with all those mountains and the snow and the natural yoghurt...oh and the cuckoo clocks and the posh chocolate...and the basements
Agree with not loaning Debuchy to United - even though it would be the equivalent of throwing somebody a rubber ring in a tsunami I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.
Obviously makes a mockery of his decision to sell van Judas (and others) though.

He wouldn't sell them Debuchy but he sells them a bloke who wins them the league.He really does know best.

Your forgetting that RVPrick forced the move himself tho. He rebelled against the club and forced them to sell him. Manure offered more money and the board got greedy and sold him to them, regardless of them being a hated rival of ours. They should rightly get lambasted for this, but some fans anger is wrongly directed at the manager for some reason. He tells the board the player needs to go, and the board handle the rest. In this case the just took the highest offer without caring that it was that mob

Classic case of Wenger apologists trying to re-write history to absolve Wenger of ever doing anything negative, ever.
Cunningly failing to mention that when Fergie wanted to buy RVP he didnt contact Gazidis or the board or go through the usual channels. No, he rang the guy who decides who stays, who goes, where they go and when. He rang Wenger. And Wengers ego was so wonderfully massaged at the thought of Fergie asking him personally that he agreed the move, the price everything.
Yes RVP wanted out, but it was Wenger and Wenger alone who let him go to UTD and in some wierd, kinky way he got a thrill out of winni g the title for them.

When arsene has a plan we listen to it.......when he doesn't, we say nothing If you seriously think that le cock didn't sanction the rvp to manure deal, then you are way beyond delusional

Fergie still expressed his frustration after the deal was done how Wenger, WENGER, haggled & haggled until he rung every last penny out of Man.U. It was all Wengers deal.
I guess this place starts taking its toll on you after a year
BUT Wenger would be gone...
