This article is pretty stupid to be honest, because you start on abuse Wenger recieved months ago... then argue against it with the position Arsenal are in now. As if the abuse is still going on.... when it isn't.
The abuse came becasue Arsenal were awful at the start of the season and again around the Milan first leg. When you pay as much as the Arsenal fans, I think it's only fair you can give the manager and players stick when they get bummed 8-2 and 4-0 by teams of a similar standard.
If Arsenal were in 3rd place all season, Wenger wouldn't have recieved the abuse he did. Now that they are in 3rd place, a majority of the critics admit Wenger has proven them wrong and in most cases, now have a lot more respect for him.
Fantastic manager, pointless article.
In terms of this season he has done incredibly... every pundit predicted us to drop out of the top 4. Some even claimed, should he get us into the CL next season it should rank up there as one of his greatest achievements
However he put us on a par with Man Utd within a season of joining and we're not there anymore partly down to his decisions
We shouldnt be praising him when we know he's capable of better

Obviously with the position Arsenal are in now, I am able to back up the argument that the original abuse he was getting was unfair.
I have always backed him, when a lot of fans have not, and the media an hype criticism was something not to be beleive at the time.
Credit is due to le prof. He's players he has brought in whihc were ridiculed as panic-buys have largely been successful (Park aside). This after all our complaints that we always let key players go without replacement.
I'm greatly looking forward to next year, (without trying to sound too much like a Liverpool or Spurs fan), I just have a feeling that Arsene will see now as a perfect time to start building at team really capable of winning trophies. I believe he thinks that he's played it cautiously for long enough and now might be as good a time as any to spend some decent money on the squad provided he can shift out the players he doesn't want anymore.
Completely agree with the OP, but I was saying the same thing months ago. But if you say stuff like this, people just bang on about "Arsenal fans only concerned with bank balance", "Arsenal fans happy with top 10/6/4". Of course those comments only come from a minority of ManU/Chelsea/ManC/Liverpool/Spurs fans. Everyone else isn't so stupid.
Wincoll : "I'm greatly looking forward to next year, (without trying to sound too much like a Liverpool or Spurs fan), "
Actually, Liverpool fans : "Next year is out year", Spurs fans "This year is our year.....oh, maybe not".
great article, never wanted Wenger out and knew he would turn it around
Well done OP. Great article. Sometimes I had slight doubts about him but in all honesty never wanted him to go. He is an Arsenal Legend.
