Club has gone stale and wenger is finished.

I do feel sorry for him though. He had the perfect opportunity to call it a day after the FA Cup

Wenger Could Be The New Brian Clough If He Doesn't Leave - Arsenal 1 Man Utd 2

It's not really a sad decline - it is a wholly predictable and obvious decline.

Back in the day there were a few fans who knew the direction were headed but, sadly, many just could not bring themselves to see it (much like the manager).

We're in a mess now. It's going to be even harder now to get rid of Wenger - we'll have to suffer a couple of seasons at least of rebuilding whilst trying to hold on to out top players. that is of course after Wenger has departed, which it seems will not be for another two years. Until he is gone we will not compete for the league or the Champions League. We might make a cup run and possibly scrape 4th.

you looked a top side yesterday

i dont think tge fall us as dranatic as made out

i reckon 3rd this yearly

Kaiser's Trainers we always look like a top side and always fall short so is that a top side

Yes he should definitley have walked after the FA Cup win. It would have been perfect to say "here's a trophy, Arsenal are well established in their new stadium, i've won other tropies along the way but the last years have not been easy. All the best". Instead he's clinging on and it looks like this season will be a big step down.

Love AW. Legend at Arsenal.

But it was time to go about 3 seasons ago and certainly now it's past time. Sad bug his legacy is tarnished and it's all his own fault.

I cannot see him staying passed may if we carry on like this.

He has basically ruined hug legacy by continuing on.

I think the last 9 years will be remembered more than the invincible years

so youve got the talent but mentality issues then

ive always backed wenger but aybe you need someone else to rally the talent

Arsenal should not let Wenger go, he would go to PSG and immediately sign szczesny and diaby and then we would be screwed

*but

Interesting video afcspy, hadn't seen that. The guy seems spot on though. The problem is that the game has passed Arsene by.

People criticise Mourinho, saying he plays stale football but you look at Chelsea's first goal yesterday and it's worthy of the tippiest, tappiest, prettiest football any manager could produce. The difference is that Mourinho sets his teams up to get results and can play pretty or ugly depending on what's required. Arsene is so one-dimensional that it's almost painful to watch. I mean the football's pretty but what's the point in playing pretty football if you get beat time and time again at the end of it!

Great article. Wenger has had his day. Unfortunately we're stuck with him, because of our toothless Board.
Wenger runs the club and if he leaves, there will be a massive gap and a long period of readjustment.
Arsenal's glory days, like the 60's are over.
We need an exceptional Manager, both on and off the field, with a strong character to remould the club, because Arsenal are Wenger. An error which will come back to haunt our toothless Board and a Chairman who doesn't care about the club, with the passion of a true supporter.

i feel bad for wenger

keeping you in the cl for half a decade+ with no funds (something i dont think a single other manager on earth could have done) basically wasted his potrntial and went unappreciated

On 8 million a season mate. Save us the high horse rubbish

All he can do now is get us another top 4 finish, try for the FA cup again, resign and give the job to simeone who will guide us to league titles.

he made a lot of money, but wasted his career keeping you relevant while the stadium was paid for

in hindsight he should have quit in 2005

In hindsight, he should have.

Absolutely he should have quit. He should have quit as soon as his role went from moulding and then managing a great team to titles to becoming some sort of penny pinching economist. His love for Arsenal is admirable and beyond doubt. As another poster stated, it's his ambition which seems to be the problem.

Teams like City, Chelsea, United will almost certainly finish above you now. Southampton, Swansea, Everton and Tottenham will rival you for fourth place and this is the season

Utd are just as bad as us if not worse tbh and wont finish above us cos as soon as we get Kos,Theo,Ozil and Debuchy back we will kick on from here win the league no but finish above them sorry lot yes

This is a great article, 5 s from me. Although I still think we'll finish 3rd/4th, lets not forget United took 4 points off us last season and still finished miles behind us. I don't think they are any better than we are.
