Re: Arsene Wenger - For him or against him?
Maybe Im missing the fucking point here but even if we do claim the Virtual trophy for 4th place we would still have to play in the CL qualifying round.
With the level of shitness we have in the team at the moment and the more than likely annual departure of our best players in the summer, is it not possible that we could be dumped out on our arses before we even get to the group stages.
Thus there would be no money for Silent Stan and the Virtual trophy would mean fuck all- surely that level of embarrassment would lead to the removal of ODL?
Imagine that eh, champagne corks popped in the boardroom over the summer at securing the hallowed 4th place trophy and then getting turned over by the team that finished 3rd in the Swiss League.

Re: Arsene Wenger - For him or against him?
It's not a given. But it's a seeded draw and last August we were in the shittest place we've been under Wenger and played a supposedly dynamic and dangerous team and beat them. Yes we were lucky (no idea how we kept a clean sheet at home and great penalty save) but that's the most difficult it's going to get, more likely than not we'll have to play some half-rate Swiss team or something.Wengerball wrote:Maybe Im missing the fucking point here but even if we do claim the Virtual trophy for 4th place we would still have to play in the CL qualifying round.

“We don’t have a big gap between what our players earn at Arsenal,” “We are more a socialist model and vulnerable because of that.
“We have something that is defendable in front of every single player. We make exceptions, but the exceptions are maybe not as high as elsewhere.
“We have an amount of money that is dedicated to wages. Within that we try to do things that make sense and are defendable.”
Hes not a manager hes an accountant.

And 7.5m for a manager that has overseen the continued decline of a once great club and who hasnt come close to winning a trophy in 6 years can be classed as sensible wages can it wenger ? Why dont you fcuk off and shove your socialist model up your fcuking

Dont think Arsenal will ever recover from losing Van Persie and seeing him become the best player in the Prem second year in a row for our enemy.
Re: Arsene Wenger - For him or against him?
Seeing RVP week after week scoring like last night and Demba Ba , FFs , it does my ffin head in 

Re: Arsene Wenger - For him or against him?
Over the last 18 months he could have signed Cahill , Mata , Ba and kept RVP , instead we get forehead and that big girls blouse up front and give improved contracts to Djorrou (2012) , Ramsey and injury prone Gibbs
