rodders0223 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 He won't be going anywhere where he is expected to win anything. That is why he has stayed at Arsenal for the past 10 years. It's easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That through his own arrogance and stubborness Arsenal have failed season after season to push forward the past decade. Mistakes that could easily be rectified were not. Arsene's own selfish ego and belief in his 'philosophy' keeping Arsenal from actually winning a league title. Why must we come out now and say what a wonderful manager he is, and what a wonderful man he is? No, not having it. Speak the truth for **** sake. Yup, he's done amazing things for which he should be applauded. However, his legacy is tarnished as far as I'm concerned by basically refusing to win anything.

VillaChris Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Both different styles but think Jardim or Allegri would be good choices. Think Luis Enrique would massively flop. Can see Wenger being next French manager as Deschamps will probably be sacked if France don't make last 4 of the world cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it really that much different to Mourinho? 1 league title in his last 7 seasons managing and counting. Klopp hasn't won a league title since 2012 either.

Popular Post Xela Posted April 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) In his first ten years Wenger revolutionised not only Arsenal but English football. His transfers were usually spot on (Petit, Vieira, Overmars, Pires, Ljungberg, Henry, Fabregas, etc) and they were a joy to watch. The titanic battles with SAF's Man Utd were brilliant. Vieira v Keane - you don't see passion like that in today's insipid game. However it is a shame a lot of people will remember the last few years - his spineless teams and poor judgement on players. I'm not sure what happened. Arsenal were never bad but never really very good again. They've not been same since they left Highbury. They lost something when they moved to the Emirates, and so did Wenger. I'm old enough to recall his early days and that is how i'll remember Wenger: A visionary of the era.

VillaChris Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Big part I reckon was David Dein leaving in 2007. He pushed Wenger constantly either to sign players or create brilliant teams and it was a great combination. He left and then they get a owner in who really is only bothered about qualifying for champions league rather than winning titles and think that's slowly filtered through the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Condolences to Arsene's family on his sudden passing...oh he hasn't died, he will just be leaving his job. You could be forgiven for thinking the former had happened given the completely OTT media coverage today; interviews with former and current players praising how 'he changed the game', reporters stationed outside the ground talking to fans about their emotions, and i'm pretty sure it was the lead story on the 6 o'clock news FFS. A ridiculous reaction to a long overdue event. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wenger completely changed and revolutionised the English game and for that he deserves many accolades . He definitely needed to go a few years ago though as was starting to ruin his legacy. Always thought England should’ve had him to head the whole development programme. Arsenal will go for someone who plays the “Arsenal way”, but I think it’ll be someone from Germany because of the new board. Think Rodgers’ reputation at a top club is still low, he’ll have to win a trophy in England before a top club will come in for in. Could see Loew being a good fit, but would laugh if it’s Klinnsmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I'm not that well versed in the actual goings on at Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
