Re: Arsene Wenger points of view
I seem to remember trhe Camel having quite a decent start for us - with RVP injured for the first 2 months or so - then he didn't get played and turned into the shyte we all know and recognise and wish would fuck off!I Hate Hleb wrote:Jock Gooner wrote:And wasn't he touted as a 10 mill signing! thank Christ grippy wenger got him on a free in the end imagine paying good money for him.doritobrother wrote:Don't think Chamakh was ever top scorer in the French League, mate.augie wrote: Who be that ?

Re: Arsene Wenger points of view
Wenger has now said he will never change the way he does things even if Arsenals top stars keep leaving!
How can anyone defend this idiot? He's destroying our club, we'll be left with a squad full of Denilsons and Chamacks by the time he leaves! It's a disaster for Arsenal FC.

Maybe he should just go back to the start, and teach children his pholosophy of mental strength. The bloke is lost.TeeCee wrote:Wenger has now said he will never change the way he does things even if Arsenals top stars keep leaving!

Edit: Just seen this nugget,
"In a week of bad news for Wenger, there has been a slight cause for a smile however with Arsenal fans giving the Frenchman a big vote of confidence.
The Arsenal Supporters Trust are set to reveal figures that 80 per cent of their members believe 62-year-old Wenger is doing a good job with the club, a dramatic rise from the previous campaign where 42% said he had taken the club as far as he could."
7 Years, 76 Days
I'll just leave this in here...
On August 5th, Arsene Wenger will have overseen the longest trophyless period of any single manager in Arsenal history, exceeding the previous record set in the early 1900s by George Morrell.

Re: 7 Years, 76 Days
And as Wenger has made it clear the FA Cup isn't a priority any more, you could argue that - in Wenger's eyes - it's actually been 8 years since we won a worthwhile trophy
