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.

Seriously, and I'm not kidding here, but I could not go to a match with this moron - I would actually go so far as to refuse to even discuss Arsenal or football in general with him. I am low on tolerance at the best of times but how the fcuk could you conversate with that moran ? :roll: :evil:

@Gunner Rob - EXACTLY!! I told another member of the sheep that recently. I often wondered how a cult like at Waco could have happened but my eyes have been opened by the brainwashed masses around me.

Augie, I don't know whether I'm deluded or not but after a humiliation like Saturday I text him wondering if he has finally seen the light. The fact he is quite willing to accept these maulings is utterly, utterly depressing. I only torment myself by doing it so maybe it's best for all to let it go.

Firstly do not apologise for sharing that with us, it only confirms the sad truth that so many Arsenal "fans" are so gullible and fucking thick that it is little wonder Wenger is still our manager. Its tiresome, just like the one with the 1,000 poster at Stamford Bridge..That is what we as genuine arsenal fans are up against..hard enough to read fuck-wits like John Cross tell us to be careful what we wish for but to have our own fans continue to defend the indefensible is rotten.
The mentality of Arsenal fans at times is maddening, one genius tweeted into sky last night that he is a passionate Arsenal fan but admires Swansea so he would be happy with a draw to help Swansea survive. That was before the game.. :banghead: :banghead: Other clubs have the same, remember a Victim fan telling me years ago he didn't know "who to support" when Liverpool played Celtic in Europe.
There is fuck all can be done about these people but the sad truth is your mate and his like minded sheep may well be the saviours of Wenger.

It's reasonable enough to think a 6-0 drubbing could make him see the light, but it was once said on here that even relegation would be justified by these wankers. "He's the best man to get us back up to the Prem"! There's no hope for these people. I genuinely feel sorry for them if they set such low standards for their lives.

Rodders it is because of people like him that I am losing faith and close to turning my back on all things Arsenal - I can understand (but totally disagree with) the board for wanting to stick with wenker because they know no better and he increases profits for them, but for the fans who supposedly support the club (not the manager) to still defend him defies belief. What will it take for them to see the light ? I dont want to even think how low we would have to drop for them to awaken to the truth. Did these people support the club before le cock became manager ? Are they aware that we were actually successful before he arrived ? Are they aware that his early triumphs were built on the 2 title winning teams that was there when he arrived ?

I dont give a fcuk how this sounds but I really wish these fcukers would just fall into a hole and disappear off the face of the earth - maybe as an added bonus they too will fcuk off with wenker when he leaves 8)

I'd love to do a poll of the entire fan base a simple yes or no on Wenger although I'd be terrified of the results :(

He is right about Wenger being a genius.

How else can you explain how he has successfully managed to brainwash the majority of the fan base from accepting the glory years and the world class players we were so lucky to have playing in a team that was arguably the best in Europe in a 38,000 stadium to celebrating fourth in a 60,000 stadium, a shit tonne more revenue, Giroud as our striker and getting thrashed by our rivals. Wenger is undoubtedly a genius.

Le boss has said we are looking over our shoulder for fourth (V.T.) ..sounds like the pathetic attempts of a beaten general forming a new line of battle. So if in May we do finish fourth he is laying the grounds for that to be an achievement...and guess what people will believe it and buy into it. and he will be safe. As much as I hate the Victims I now (nearly) want them to win the league to blow the "financial doping" excuse out of the water.

Rodders me old mucker - your powers of denial and endurance have won me over.......last night felt like the beginning of the end. When the normal thronging masses of Blocks 2-6 fail to offer a ripple of support for their Lord and Master, you can sense the worm is turning. 2 months left ??

I think my cheeseburgers are starting to curl up :oops:

as much as I hate to admit it, the annoying little ginger manc twat is 100% spot on :
For one reason or another, players just seem to go missing. The Artetas, Cazorlas, Rosickys, Ozils, it seems like they go on the pitch with no discipline. They play a few nice little one-twos, a bit of tippy-tappy football and don't bother running back. There's no leader with them, no Patrick Vieira, no Tony Adams, no Martin Keown.

Sometimes when you're a midfield player up against it, you just need to try and stop the flow of attacks - but these, they go 2-0 down, have a walk up front, lose the ball, play a nice little one-two and not bother sprinting back. And they wonder why they're in the position they're in.

It's the Arsenal fans you feel sorry for, because they seem to get the same thing every year, maybe a little hint of the title for a few weeks and then go to Chelsea, City or Liverpool and do nothing. Fans expect Arsenal to be going for the league trophy but although they're in fourth, they're a million miles away in my eyes
this is why wenger will never win anything again - he has no game plan for when the opposition have the ball.

his "we don't worry about the opposition" is outdated, there's no "when we lose the ball Caz, get tight on hazard/mata/silva and get your foot in" its just "go out and play".....

no discipline is absolutely correct - we don't defend as a team and make us difficult to play against, we have 5 midfielders who are individuals.

as we were told back in 2000's - you have to earn your right to play first....

Anyone who uses such phrases as "the Chelseas.... your Rooneys" is a *word censored*. Other than that he's correct.
