THE WENGER THREAD

"I want to have success by building a team with a style, with a know-how, with a culture of play specific to the club and its fans and with young people. That is what I have chosen in my career and want to ensure I continue here at Arsenal.

"I am in a construction project with a young team but my intention is to take that project to the ultimate end. For me, pleasure comes from watching those players showing the football I like to see played.

It's all about him, what he wants, what he has chosen.

Long standing fans are just expected to go along with that but for what reason? The personal whims of one man who isn't really a football man in the classic sense at all. He is actually a fucking weirdo if we are honest.

We've known for years, Wenger has used Arsenal FC as his pet project but when you see him talk like that it is sickening. Especially when years later he excuses his failure by blatanly lying when claiming he was forced to sell his best players.

Who was he forced to sell? Fabregas chose to go ... as did Hleb, Nasri, Adebayor, Sagna and RvP

What a despicable fraud Wenger is.
Exactly. The man is the ultimate football snob.

HE wants us to play sideways football.

HE doesn't care about the defensive side of the game.

HE refuses to upgrade the bang average players in the first team and the squad.

All for £23K per day :banghead:

I wish he had gone to Real Madrid, and been sacked by mid season a la Rafa. It makes you wonder why Real ever would have wanted Wenger, it's a huge mis match in terms of club and manager combination!

The more he says things like this, the bigger the hole he digs for himself and we can only hope it truly is the beginning of the end.
I wish he had fucked off. He'd have been found out within six months. He'd have ended up a another Sven, a journeyman and probably have retired by now after the offers dried up.

Instead he's made a mint for being a finance manager.

whilst reminding us regularly about how cash strapped we were.

I mean, give the guy a break, he built the club on his Tod.
The comparisons with Ferguson are embarrassing now. Ferguson built several great teams, actually produced his own players, almost doubled the capacity of Manure's stadium and won titles all the way through his reign (No nine year drought for him). THAT is success. No-one can accuse Wenger of being anywhere near Ferguson's greatness (aside from the Invincibles, granted, but that was one season).
xisstential wrote:It's kinda sad that it's come to this but TBH he has brought it on himself, it is self inflicted. He has been allowed to get away for so much for so long that it is actually him and not us who has the sense of entitlement. By allowing him to get away with so much (both the board and the fans) he now cannot accept that everyone is turning on him. In fact he seems completely mystified by it.

But as I said it's self inflicted, he is his own worst enemy, he needed to come out and say he understands how we feel, understand that we are disappointed and what he plans to do about making it right. Instead he lashes out like a cornered animal and turns on his supporters?? His MASSIVE ego will just not let him admit he's wrong.

The sympathy for him is fleeting, HE NEEDS TO GO!!

What's the bet he tries to get the players to turn to him if they score today.... "Go out, play for me, show them how much I mean to you" Walcott, Ramsey and Groud probably will. But lets be honest, what chance do they have of scoring??

WENGER OUT!!

He's stale, the club has gone stale, and the players are bottlers and average.

So much for the bullshit being peddled that giving up a season ticket was no form of protest as they'd just be snapped up by someone else.

With the prospect of Arsehole Wanker being in charge again next season they can't give the fucking things away.
.
That 40,000 people are ready to jump at the chance to buy is season ticket is bullshit yes. Most definitely.

However, every summer up until now at least, any ST given up has been snapped up by someone else ... so that part is not bullshit unfortunately. If you gave it up, you lost it.

Hopefully that will change but the ST I gave up last year isn't still there waiting for me to buy it again in a few years time when Wenger has finally gone.

Yeah me too. It was the right time for him to go from an Arsenal point of view yet he acts like he was doing us a favour by staying.

There is not one season in the last 12 that Wenger has had at Arsenal that would have got him a second season a Real Madrid. Pick any of the 12 and he gets the sack 12 times.

And so where would he have ended up? Back in France at somewhere like Montpellier? Thats about his true level.

I had the feeling this would happen, and i'll be honest BSM and RA did exactly what they meant to, they took the sting out of the protest by making it mainstream. By making it so open to everyone they ensured that those who were anti-protest would know about it ahead of time, call me a conspiracy theorist but they screwed us royally.

We're fcuked because he'll be here next year, and the next and the next as we have the most apathetic bunch of fans left in the bowl.

Over the years the club has managed to price out the majority of long term working class fans, those they couldn't price out they have forced out by disillusionment, lying, conceit and their ignorance.

Those of us who gave up season tickets and regular match attendance are as much to blame as those muppets who we have allowed to take our place, and i will regret that personally for ever, to those of you who still put your lives on hold and actually put up with this shit by attending every match i can only apologise for what we've done to you :oops:

Just like to add well done to those in the ground for even attempting to go against the tide it was great to see, but to be honest the whole protest thing has been left way too late with only a couple of games left now. If BSM and RA were serious about change at the club why didn't anything happen after the Man U and Swansea results.

How else are people supposed to protest if no one knows about it? ?

The reality is that the Emirates is an aging middle class bowl where no one says boo to a goose. It's sad, but that is where we are. I am sure the board are laughing themselves silly at the 'protest'.

The people who are paying to watch that shite deserve it. I know that there are people who have gone for years, but if that doesn't wake them up, then they must have a lot of disposable income to burn.

To be honest my feeling is the fact that the ground had 10,000 empty seats the other night would have had more impact on the club than that protest especially because of the singing if TO1AW straight after gives the impression of more people being pro than anti :banghead:

Not exactly, the thousands of empty seats today represents those that are also sick of the regime.
I am a red member, given the choice of going and holding up an A4 sheet of paper, or not donating another £50 to this stagnant regime, run by a clueless manager as Stans financial puppet, I was happy to keep my money.
Now Villa I am going, and hope those that really want to see the back of Le Fraud should be more vocal, and if any akb's want to stand and argue I am up for that too.

Fox i totally agree with your point but the number of empty seat has not even been noticed or mentioned by the media due to the 'failed' protest taking all the coverage :banghead:

Oh and by the way, you can read into Sanchez's reaction when he came off he is no fan of Wenger either, lets hope what ever rumblings are going on in the dressing is enough to end the old fools reign.

It all chips away at him, this should be carried on at the final game v Villa, lets see if has the brass neck to walk around the bowl afterwards and hear the abuse.
Don't believe the hype, he is now damaged goods, the pressure has to be maintained to finish him.
Being a red member attended about 14 games this season, including 3 in CL, spending about £700, if he is still there when membership is up by end of May, its being cancelled.
Have no more inclination to follow the sheep that believe his regular August bullshit, that this team can win the title.
Cant enjoy it any more, so that will be my contribution to Stans's financial project, because that is what our club has become, withdrawn.

What I can't fathom is that Wenger blames the fans on Friday and yet there's still c**ts that sing his name on Saturday. I only pray there is a mass suicide by his cult members when he finally leaves.

if he goes i'd like to hear him tell everyone that wenger dropped a bollock big time, doubt it though. ozil also was a moody fucker today, not surprised but christ they've only had a couple of seasons of this shite :shock:

loved danny's comments after the match, respected fans for their opinions, not going to run his mouth off like some might have. good finish from him too today, the only good thing giroud did all game was that knock down. doesn't mean giroud played well though, he was worse than usual :o :oops:
