Begun this around 2007/ 2008, and there is so much more, which proves how bad and repetitive everything has become. And a c**t of a manager and Club who's star player in Fabregas wants out from this shower of s**t because of the crap he is surrounded with and lack of ambition and lack of silverware, refuses to strengthen to show him and It's fans that they mean business. Too busy making money for themselves.
People say Fabregas signed a long term deal a few seasons back, and should honour it and no-one forced him to.
More like Wenger manipulated him into signing it, and promising all this s**t like he tryed in vain with Henry. Now, Fabregas isn't young and naive anymore, he's realised the bulls**t. Chugging along, playing his heart out, and noticed it is all one-sided and flawed.
The Club's a laughing stock. Sooner it goes tits up, and Arsenal learn the hard way, the better. The more c**ts who re-new their season tickets (mainly the Wenger brigade) etc (and yet still complain), is the reason the board and Wenger get away with it continually. Like a drug addict, if he refuses help, the only way they'll learn if they do, is to f*** themselves up and learn the hard way.
f***s me off something chronic, when die-hard idiots defend Wenger because he changed that, because he changed this. Errrr. One major flaw with that. What has a successful past got to do with a s**te present?! Brian Clough bought success to Forest then got them relegated. Prime example of making and breaking a team. Stayed too long. If Arsenal win nothing much within the next 5-6 years, you'd still get w**kers defending Wenger because he changed the dietary methods 20 years ago, and won league titles 15 years ago etc etc. Remarkable. The fact he also inherited from Graham, the winning mentality, defensiveness, power and strength from Adams, Keown, Bould etc who passed it on to Vieira and co. makes you wonder if he'd of won anything. Not taking anything away from his success', but seeing now how poor Arsenal have been for ages, no drilling for the defence nor fighting and "When the going gets tough, the tough get" going attitude. Whole situation stinks!
A man too, who claims "We SHALL win a trophy this season!" yet "throws" and shows utter contempt towards competitions i.e. FA Cup and League Cup, in favour of the more "bigger" prices/ competitions, in which they never come close to winning neither, so completely, and utterly, pointless!
Get somebody else in to give it a chance and take us back to the heights Wenger can no longer do. Or WON'T do.
Someone who hasn't won a pot for years, in a position to chuck any competition under no pressure from the board is way beyond words. Lack of squad depth? Who's to blame for that then?
I used the same scenario once before. If your married for example of 20 odd years and your wife has bought you so much happiness and changed your life etc etc, and one day you found out she was f***ing other guys recently, you gonna defend her and keep a hold of her because of the happy past? Or are you gonna consider the present and cut your losses? Maybe you'd work something out, well, Wenger has had 5 years. Plenty of time to deliver but hasn't. In football, you judge someone in the recent past and present to be fair. And Arsenal's last few seasons have been in general, s**t and trophy-less. Wenger takes the plaudits when we were successful, now he has to take the majority of blame for the ultimate failings
In small doses, maybe he has done well finishing in a CL position year after year with this squad that is s**t.
But then it is s**t because he has FAILED to build upon the squad year after year, and ultimately, has won f*** all. And a total disgrace being offered a new contract of at least 6 million quid a year AND a 20 per cent pay-rise on top of! Hill-Wood the prick, saying in regards to Gallas' contract, how players need to know the value of money, and realise that money doesn't grow on trees. Total contradiction and disgust!
And again, any top draw manager could finish at least 4th at WORST with this squad. But then, it would be inaccurate to say that anyway, because any decent manager who came in would add/ replace players significantly in order to achieve success. At least make an attempt. Not buying success, but spending what is required and building upon the squad currently.
Fact of the matter remains. Regardless of CL qualification. 5 years without nothing and no progress whatsoever. Taken 5 years to try and build a top draw squad with which there is no end product. The squad doesn't even look convincing. Weaker every summer.
10 per cent doing well in CL qualifying, 90 per cent s**t on the whole for underachieving and winning s**t. I could be manager of Arsenal and win s**t for 5 years, anyone could. I might miss out on a CL place, but then if Wenger did, I doubt he would STILL not get sacked! I sure as s**t too, bet Wenger would spend money more if it was the top 2 only who qualify for the Champions League! 4th at worst is a comfort zone. He said himself once, that it should only be the "Champions" in it. Yeah, easy to say that when he use to win the Premier League. Something which was years ago and never to be repeated again under his reign.
Oh, and maybe stability breeds success. After-all, look at the incredible success and trophies Dario Gradi bought to Crewe after so many years of being manager!
People also brand Wenger a genius. Truth is, the bloke is an idiot! Why would a genius make the same old simple and many mistakes eh? Bunch of Wenger (magic) asshats. And does a so-called "genius" go a total since they have been at a club of around 8 years without a trophy?! And does a genius who has had such wonderful, world-class players at their disposal have such a s**t general record in Europe and never won a CL and back-2-back league titles?!
Bloke wants to admit defeat, gain respect by f***ing off to Japan or France and take the board of directors with him. Prove how "good" he is by building a young/ youth team with a small club over there for peanuts. Then if he makes them world-class, THEN we can say he is a genius. What a prick. f***ed Arsenal just like he did with Monaco. In fact, even worse. At least they had the balls to drop kick him into touch where they replaced him with Tigana. Who went that extra step and signed the right players in order to achieve success. Same as the great George Graham said on his arrival as Arsenal manager: "If you can't think big, or act big, at a club like Arsenal, you may as well crawl under the carpet ." Wenger needs to crawl and rot under his Aubusson! It was a shame the board never shared Graham's ambitions too, restricted to a shoe-string budget and strict (at the time) wage policy which got thrown out the window when he was sacked. If the board bent over backwards for Graham like the c**t Wenger now, he would of been even more successful!
Thinking there is a conspiracy against Arsenal also is typical of being a c**t and when decisions etc go against him. Should take a long hard look in the mirror and closer to home. Always someone else's fault.
It amazes me why people continue to defend this man to the death. He is seriously f***ing up Arsenal, to a point, if he did leave, no world-class players would want to join Arsenal anyway. Won't ever change under Wenger. All true and the truth hurts. With a French git who speaks such s**t and thinks The World is against Arsenal.
That is why I dislike Wenger, not just because of the lack of success recently, it is the refusal to learn from the ultimate, simple a lot of the time mistakes, and the constant "bigging" up of his team when they aren't good enough, and the repetitive s**te he continues to spout. Whatever he once achieved at Arsenal is history. He will be remembered as the maker and breaker. Most successful manager, but also the most under-achiever. Fact!
Wenger said in the summer of 2005, when he sold Vieira, he had a "Masterplan" and "Trust me". I guess that that plan and the trust in him, was to finish with f***-all 5 seasons on the trot, whilst watching your fiercist rivals sweep the lot between them. How wonderful. The c**t's ego is writing checks his body can't cash ("Top c**t") and he is a skinny f***er too. Starved of success. Whilst everyone else involved with The Arsenal (mainly the fans) has to suffer.
Seeing United and Chelsea etc win s**t, you'd think would agonize and make Wenger etc more determined to do something about it. Particularly as he stated himself he hates losing. Wouldn't of thought so based on recent seasons
Wenger apologists always point out we were "s**t" before Wenger came along and were a "mid-table team", which has a whole is utter s**te, because it was only around twice (1993 & '95) we were mid-table.
1993 and 1995 was the only real time in recent years prior to Wenger we were mid-table, but ultimately, still a VERY successful side. Second most successful era/ period since the 1930′s.
In 1993, we still won a cup double which was a first in those days, so not at all a bad season and was a fantastic triumph when the League Cup meant something back then. So in fact, it was only really 1995 (still reached CWC Final again and unlucky) and 1996, we had 2 s**tty seasons we had until Wenger came along. In fact, Graham himself, only finished outside the top 4 like 3 times in his 9 seasons or so he was at Arsenal.
People are also quick to harp on about how we wouldn't even be where we are today without Wenger. Damn right about that! Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Same people, however, aren't as quick to notice that the past 5 seasons, which have been s**t, are also thanks to Wenger.
After 2004, it is sure s**t to be an Arsenal fan. Maybe as well, we don't have the funds to get players in (although we all know we do which has been proven) because of the new stadium etc. Well, if that's true, sounds like a right hash job and not thought through enough, with crippling debts. Might be good for the future, but by then, probably be a lower division side. Yet again, you can blame Wenger, seeing as he was the one behind the new stadium and the one with the "vision". Not to mention the disgraceful wage bill which is one of the highest around, particularly in England. Paying over-rated crap which aren't good enough, nor win anything PERIOD. Total f***ing shambles. Even for a small amount, you telling me there isn't an affordable batch of players how there, better than Diaby, Denilson, Silvester, Eduardo et al?!
Wenger himself, one of the highest paid managers in World Football, on at least 5 million per a year, to win f*** all, and be under no pressure to deliver at all. Even more than Ferguson at United. Money for nothing.
Building a bust for the bloke as well, when he is still at the Club and completely over-rated, and single handedly destroyed his own Legacy he created.
Brilliant times tho eh? After we won the FA Cup (undeserved playing negatively and s**t, something Wenger hates and slates other clubs who do that against us whom we struggle) in 2005, we have had to watch Liverpool, Chelsea and inparticularly, Man United sweep the lot between them, i.e. CL and the PL. What a wonderful place to be in! And people reckon us Arsenal fans are spoilt! What the f*** does that make United and Chelsea fans then eh?! United dominated the 90′s, and now the 2000′s!
And who can forget Avram Grant, reaching his first CL Final in only a few months, someone who was inexperienced and might not even had the right coaching badges etc. Something Wenger had taken a decade to do in reaching the final, and still not won a Champions League! In fact, the only manager to reach all 3 finals of each European competition and lose!
SACK THE BOARD AND WENGER! It is the only way forward if Arsenal are to win trophies. Lie to the fans. Just because Wenger wants to do it his way and bring on s**t kids and basement/ bargain buys just to save a few bob, who are too young (or old and has beens or never beens of will be) and not good enough, then blame the lack of success on "Lack of maturity." A self-inflicted, repetitive wound.
And people defend Wenger (Arsene knows brigade and apologists) stating the board are letting Wenger down in regards to transfer money. Wenger is the f***ing man behind it! He wanted to move to the stadium and do things on the cheap with his "Experiment"(his word) and brainwashed the board to the point they are now BOTH to blame. Wenger doesn't even spend the money which we all know we have which is proved. Said himself he wouldn't spend 100 million if he could because of hampering the younger players development etc. Nor did he spend big anyway when at Highbury, but still managed to compete became successful. And if there really is NO money, then guilty by association as they oppose a money takeover. Happy to line their own pockets first. Both tight c**ts, although Wenger is the main culprit as he is still given the opportunity to spend money, but the board are happy for him not spend it hence making a saving.
Plus, Wenger said success can only be measured in time. Okay then. Have it your way:
7 trophies in 12/ 13 years not bad. But add up a total of 8 years of not winning anything, no back-2-back Titles EVER, no Champions League EVER, 3 League Titles in 14 seasons, and no Title for 6 seasons, and a trophyless 5 seasons on the bounce.
Overall, s**t ratio. Well done, Arsene!
Once Fabregas goes, which will probably be next summer, seeing as the team is built around him, Wenger will f*** off, and the Arsenal board because daddy left, leaving it someone elses' problem to hire a new manager and leaving the club in the s**t. Probably end up Arsenal having the best stadium in the Coca-Cola Championship. With sad f***ing Wenger c**ts with banners sat there saying "Arsene Knows." "Bring back Arsene!" We are s**t. f***ed. Finished. Back to mediocracy like the 80′s until Graham saved us and turned Highbury into practically a full house and not just 20,000. Out of the darkness, into the light .
When you got a manager and board of directors happy and content with winning nothing and finishing 3rd and 4th, you are never gonna be successful again.
Wenger has gone full circle. He made Arsenal and made them successful, and now taken them right back to where they started when he joined way back in '96 when the team went a little bit stale. Trophyless and mediocre. In fact worst as far as trophyless seasons. Although they weren't as s**t as everyone made them out to be prior to Wenger. When he leaves, the Club will be worse off than ever, and all the money he has saved up, leave Arsenal in a fantastic situation financially, which will be brief before The Board sell up and a new owner pumps debt into the Club. So completely, and utterly, pointless
Wenger's 2004 Invincible season, something which may not ever happen again, was his swan song. The worst sequence of runs since 1980 to 1986 where Arsenal never won anything until George Graham took up the reigns. And even he never went more than one season without f***all!
Sinatra style, with Wenger singing - "And I f***ed Arsenal MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! ! ! ! ! ! !
"It is unacceptable for a big club to go 4 years without a league title." - Arsene Wenger on Real Madrid.
No League Title for Wenger for 6 years, and trophy-less for 5 and counting
Wenger for me, was once a very good manager at Arsenal, but never a great manager
Arsenal .Where failure and losers are rewarded

I have heard that IN
Benzema ( clichy p/ x)
Reina (wants CL football)
G. Cahill (other arsenal players going other way that suit boltons attempted style of play that owen coyle has brought - denilson, bendtner, vela)

"boring boring arsenal" has become "frustrating frustrating arsenal"

the looks of frustration and hopelessness on wenger face says it all. he can say whatever he wants, but i strongly believes that we will be having a major overhaul. many player will be leaving (wenger knows many not up to it n given too many chances to prove themself)

must leave= almunia, clichy, djourou, squillaci, eboue, diaby, rosicky, denilson, arshavin, bendtner, vela, traore (wow this is a whole team plus a sub, even able to field as 4-3-3 ha )

can leave too= fabianski, sagna, koscielny, song

i think we have too many squad player, we need quality, not quantity. so getting rid of the "must leave" is not really a problem as they seldom gets games or lightly used(their departure won't not be felt. ok maybe celebrated). with their sales income+ our transfer budget, hopefully we can get at least 4-5 quality players, our youngersters (lansbury, JET, frimpong, miyaichi. . ) can fill up the rest of the squad.

p.s just the amount of wages save by getting rid of the "must leave" is huge.

any comments? what do you guys think?

Listed below will be players most likely link to arsenal this coming transfer window. as you can see most are wenger type of signing (young, not well know, cheaper. . ) except for a few that had been constantly link with us.

giorgio chiellini= not much need to be said, worldclass, everything we need (juve will be having a massive overhaul of the team, not impossible of landing him if price is right. 25-35mil euro????) but will face competition from man city and barcelona.

Absolutely disgusting
sack wenger
its not working

24 Apr 2011 16:53:41
So predictable. . Congested midfield and desperate crosses to no one.
But we can still hope that man u and chelsea lose all their remaining games and are docked points for making arsenal look stupid.

24 Apr 2011 13:29:39
Is this post from Wenger himself???

22 Apr 2011 10:12:01
GK needed - no (common mate! ! get real, needed a keeper 3 years ago! !)
RB needed - yes - backup for sagna and eboue out (replace Sagna you mean?? Eboue should have left 3 years ago! !)
CB needed - yes - Someone good to partner TV (And who to replace the 2 french mugs???)
LB needed - yes - gibbs to replace clichy (Agree here)
RM needed - no (??? Can Walcott play more than 3 consecutive games???)
CM needed - no (Fabregas is leaving, Denilson is carp, need 2 CM imo - Song is carp but can stay as backup)
LM needed - yes - eden hazard (Wenger too tight ass - please can we sell Arshavin)
CF needed - no (Again. . can van Persie play more than 3 consecutive games??? Chamackh & Bendtner?? Both Carp! ! )

Face it, we need more players than Pool do this summer! ! Else we will finish 5th next year! !
Please Wenger, get the cheque book out and try look for a few non-french players who can handle some pressure.

Forget Alex Chamberlin Gooners, Southampton have slapped a sell-on-clause of 40% on any deal.
At least you won't be stealing another youngster so cheaply, this time if you really want him you'll have to pay the going rate. And this time we've got a fit and proper chairman, a strong man who won't roll over for you like the muppet we had in charge last time did.
