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.

And the journalists never ask him the relevant questions.

Are they scared of being ostracised?

Wenger/the Board are very clever in a cynical way. We are still one of the few clubs that put on a nice buffet lunch for the journo's that attend Wenger's pressers. You have to remember that most journo's are fat lazy greedy wánkers and will suck a dick for a free lunch. :x :roll:

A bit like Spuddy in that manner. :rubchin:

:D :wink: :wink:

Thanks to Wenger there is now a repetitive pattern at the club where a period of humiliation is followed by a saving face exercise. We have seen this over the course of a season (like last year finishing 2nd) and we see it in some games (like last night getting a point).

The opening game this season was another classic example. Start brightly … get complacent and fall apart … be on the verge of a humiliating thrashing … then pull a couple of goals back to paper over the cracks. This then ensures that it will all continue as it never gets desperate enough for the manager to pay the price and lose his job.

The sickening thing is this loser mentality comes from our own manager.

And I really think Wenger is clueless when it comes to sports psychology. Complaining pre-match about the unfairness of playing a day earlier than his opponent is a big mistake because it sends out the wrong message to his own players and the opposition. Wenger should say that his players can cope as they are the fittest in the PL (which might be bollocks but that doesn’t usually stop him). Instead he provides them with an excuse to fail which they invariably do.

Last nights game proved what a fallacy this whole fatigue thing is anyway because we looked more tired at the start of the game than at the end. The way we started was almost certainly down to Wenger’s cowardice and negativity.

Agreed all been said before about Wenger on literally all facets of his management.....made a ready made excuse for his players

Not new the guy is a negative character anyway.....always moaning about something before a big game

was it not before the Barcelona game in CL final when he was moaning about the pitch??

He just has to go end off...nothing else to say...thanks Wenger for what you done...now FUCK OFF

I know we will never win the Prem with Wenger in charge and I honestly don't think I will see us win it again. Football has become all about the players wages and although conte has proved a great tactician let's be honest Chelsea went on strike last season so he took on the Champions really.
I think Sanchez is a great example he sulks and it looks like he wants the big money from China.
I do also think he does not think the quality of the team is up to scratch but that's where the money comes in again.
Do you guys think Sky will pay 3 Billion again for the next tv rights when streaming is becoming so easy.
So it will again go back to the Billionaires who use football as a hobby and throw cash around like a chav who just won the lottery.
It's just become such bollocks to be honest and boring. I glad I saw Arsenal from 1979 to about 2006. After that football has been bollocks

100% agree. When you see him berating Twirly after another fucked up pass or on his haunches after another shit piece of defending sees us throw away 3 points, does anyone honestly believe he is saying to himself "if only I could live the dream of playing for Beijing Guoan" ? The bloke comes from the shittiest, poor background imaginable and is already rich beyond his dreams. What he wants to see is 10 other street fighters laying it on the fucking line instead of being bundled over by 5'6" Ryan Fraser or being outmuscled by fucking Harry Arter

Oh dear.... the perimeter has been breached, bet that's gonna get Wenger's attention. Down to 5th, all hands on deck now.... I hope we drop down to 6th or 7th, I really hope everything just starts getting away from him. If Sanchez continues sulking,it might just :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Spurs winning didn't help Wenger or Arsenal, they have now leapfrogged us. Chelsea being pegged back doesn't help Wenger either, we wouldn't overtake them if we were one point behind.

We know that but lets be honest, AKBs live in a fantasy world of make believe and will gladly cling on to any lifeline available, so lets humour them!

The poor little mites but be really struggling with their belief now-a-days :wink:

Were in a dog fight for 4th. Chelsea are gone, and Liverpool look better than us, I also feel Man City whilst they wont win it, they will be in the top 4. And unlike other years where he had to fend of Spurs or Aston Villa, this time we will have to fend of Spurs and Man United. Man United look to have found a rhythm and Jose always to have Wengers number. Plus Spurs are no longer mugs.

Wenger just needs to go. His position is untenable, especially if we finish outside the top 4. When Brexit occured, David Camerson sawy his position was untenable, and did the right think knowing he couldnt govern when this major mandate went against him.

Tell me, how the fuk does Wenger in good faith sign a new deal if we finish outside the top 4 and Ozil and Sanchez leave? How would he not feel guilty and embarrassed?
