I was only thinking a few days ago how peaceful the boards were. Now all the pro-Wenger Rose tinters have come out and flame wars break out

Believable10 Unbelievable8

Look, AW isn't perfect, he has his side to him that fans detest, but even so, there is not another manager in the world who could do what he has done with the money ok? So just shut up and stop trying to start cyber arguments because you have nothing better to do with your pathetic life. We aren't rose-tinters, and I for one have more than enough reasons to be furious with AW, but that doesn't mean I want him out or I believe we could replace him, so keep your barbed comments to yourself or add something to the discussion. 'Person'

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheers for proving my point

Agree0 Disagree0

Im Sorry Who could Replace Him??

Agree0 Disagree0

Do you think I give a toss about whether or not you had an meaningless point proven? No. MY point, which you're too think to notice, is that we many of us aren't rose-tinters so get off your ego horse, we just know we couldn't replace him. So go away you tool.

Agree0 Disagree0

Any other club would have sacked him by now. His seasonal targets seem to be to get into the Champs League. Now that that target looks under threat he is panicking.

Agree0 Disagree0

Your support for your club and manager is embarrassing. There's no wonder your team collapse in the last 5-10 minutes of every game. It's like a library at The Emirates.

Also, as anyone with any level of intelligence can see, if you sack Wenger you'll be saying goodbye to top four finishes - I guarantee it. Amazing how some of you can't seem to accept that you don't have the finances to keep up with Man City/Chelsea/Liverpool/Man United (scum) so instead call for the head of a manager whom without you wouldn't be where you are today.

I like to watch Arsenal play and think your manager's one of the best in the business but I'm sort of starting to hope those of you calling for Wenger's head get what you want...then you can enjoy the mid-table mediocrity you deserve. You sound like children.

If you all spent half as much time actually getting behind your team as you do bitching and whining you'd do a lot better.

Agree0 Disagree0

Any other club would have sacked him by now?

After 14 years of qualification for the CL, a new stadium a couple of doubles and an unbeaten season? and all despite a wage cap and a transfer budget lower than our rivals?


Get a f*cking clue mate!

Agree0 Disagree0

You™re still living in the past. If you were the top salesman at work for 6 years and then failed to sell anything for another 6 years would you still be employeed? No not a chance.

Look. No one is saying that Wenger hasn™t been great for us, but he has lost his way. Not only with transfers but with his tactics. Playing players out of position etc etc. Also, what kind of manager doesn™t say a thing to his players after they get humiliated by 8 goals? What kind of manager goes on a seminar on deadline day while we are in dire need to strengthening?

As I said, yes he has been great for us but he needs a new challenge.

Agree0 Disagree0

All you wenger out clowns whos the replacement?its all good and well wanting someone to go who the hell do you replace him with.

glory hunters who are in it for the glory and want bragging rights grow up.

Agree0 Disagree0

People that want AW 'out' are "Glory Hunters"? LOL...

Considering most who want AW out aren't JCL's or AKB's I wouldn't call them Glory Hunters. - MOST [NOT All] of those wanting him to stay ONLY know his "era"

They also fail to realise, much like our "on the fence" friend up top - Arsenal weren't a "Mid-Table" club prior to AW and we wouldn't be Post-Wenger either.

Agree0 Disagree0

Lol, grow up from someone who probably doesn't shave yet.

Arsenal will sign hazard and m'vila in january. deal for hazard was done but they could not find replacement for him. expect to see him in jan.

Believable46 Unbelievable14

Total and utter rubbish

Agree0 Disagree0

Doubt this mate, Lille have big anger with Arsenal over the Park Chu Young deal..

Agree0 Disagree0

Lille's Manager confirmed it... How is it total and utter rubbish?

The deal was very close to happening but it couldn™t be done in time,

Negotiating had all but been done but Lille didn™t have a suitable player to come in for Hazard so it fell short.

But Arsene will make it come January.

Agree0 Disagree0

Who is going to pay his wages?

Agree0 Disagree0

Please let this be true

Agree0 Disagree0

Lol at thinking Hazard is on "high wages" at Lille.

Agree0 Disagree0

We don't need both

Agree0 Disagree0

For some reason, i have a bad feeling that since this stared making rounds around the internet so club are just gonna come out and make a bid for Hazard and in typical Arsenal fashion, we'll be out-bid to his signature. sorta like Mata getting scooped up by Chelsea.

psychocyst

Agree0 Disagree0

You know that false rumour that circulated that "Liverpool have first refusal of Hazard"?

Yeah - Replace that, with Arsenal and you'll see why it can't/won't happen (meaning another club sneaking in).

Agree0 Disagree0

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger will monitor Lazio midfielder Hernanes over the coming months with a view to a possible bid for the Brazilian in January of 20 million caughtoffside

Believable11 Unbelievable14

Reliable source ? i dont think so

Agree0 Disagree0

how about this lads wenger convinced the board to sell cesc, the board did not want to sell.
wenger never wanted to offer the contact nasri wanted in oct 2010, and this contract was within our wage demands

wenger out
i know hes done so much for us, and i for one used to back him up, buh we lost our two best players cus of dat scrony lanky streak of piss

Gooner99

Believable21 Unbelievable35

Your obviously a spud!!

Agree0 Disagree0

P.s. it's 'scrawny' ...

Agree0 Disagree0

Get your facts right

Agree0 Disagree0

Wenger made these players the stars they are today...so if it wasnt for that "scrony lanky streak of piss" as you call him, we wouldnt have had these 2 world class players on our books.

Agree0 Disagree0

The Manager does not control wages etc, it was the board
Inarsenewetrust

Agree0 Disagree0

So the board is perfect and its all wenger's fault? I don't think so at all...one day the truth will come out. You speak so disrespectfully to our greatest manager? You're a joke of a 'fan'

Agree0 Disagree0

Terrible post mate, your just shooting your mouth without knowing ANYTHING....

If Wenger did sell them than GOOD
if the Board sold them than GOOD

We have replacements, ready and waiting, Arteta, Wilshere, Ramsey, Gervinho, Ox, Ryo....

I would rather no Cesc and no Nasri than have the two of them not bothering for the whole season, i.e. like Cesc last year!

As for Nasri being worth 180k a week, PFFT, do me a favour!!

We are grand mate, our manager is who he is and we are used to it..

If Wenger left Arsenal he would walk into any vacant role, so why sack him? He is the right man for ther Job, his project has been ongoing for about 8 years, so why would we end that!!

At Arsneal we stand by our team, manager and fans.... We cant all be mindless Spuds, who demand what they just cant have.

I.e, a consistant top 4 finish, like Arsenal...

Agree0 Disagree0

You've either been listening to too much Adrian Durham or reading too much Le Grove!

Agree0 Disagree0

If it was up to me,I would have a solid gold statue of Arsene Wenger outside the Emirates,he has won us league titles,FA cups,brought in some brilliant players.and also a new stadium.The only managers out there who could improve things,would probably spend a small fortune doing it,and I can't see the Board spending the money yet.So wind your neck in,and be a bit more constructive.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cesc said that Wenger convinsed the board to let him go to Barca for less than his value, if that is true, it is criminal on WEnger's part especially as he dithered over replacements

Agree0 Disagree0

Why did everyone jump on Gooner99™s back and call him a liar when a quick glance at the news would have shown that the statement was made by Cesc.

Honestly, some of you can™t take any criticism being aimed at your precious wenger. You™re like 9 year olds.

Agree0 Disagree0

You have not got a scooby-doo in all fairness!

Agree0 Disagree0

Firstly Arsene Made Fabregas Not You Or The Bored Secondly He Wasn't comitted Thirdly He Loved Fabregas And If You Love Someone Let Them Go And If They Come Back it Should Be So Just Piss Of If You Can Do A Better Job Do So

Agree0 Disagree0

To all the people who got angry with Gooner99, i have a question.Why do you blindly follow AW? yes he has done good things in the PAST but now we are a laughing stock.This is our 125th anniversary and after that pathetic 8-2 result,the only thing that can redeem AW and the board is winning the league or CL and i think deep down even the most optimistic gooners out there can see this is highly unlikely.And before anyone comes out with the classic "go support ManC" line......I would if i could but any true supporter would know that a football team is for life not just the good times.

Dialsquare1886

Agree0 Disagree0

Gooner99 well done for starting a well-responded post, you fool. AW publicly middle-fingered the board by saying "how can a club say they are ambitious if they sell their best players?"

He was nearly in tears when Fabregas was sold, I have never seen him like that. Gutted for AW about that. I may spend some words slating him for the right reasons e.g. weird substitutions he makes, but NEVER for this. Get your facts straight and get lost.
Raz

Agree0 Disagree0

Your an absolute a**hole mate, you don't have a clue, who exactly are they going to replace him with? it's the boards fault, they probably just realised at the last minute that they were going to be blamed for not backing wenger, they left it too late, not him.

Agree0 Disagree0

So, lets try this again for those that don't read any further than the Daily Wenger. Cesc himself said Wenger managed to drop the asking price with the board. It is not something Gooner99 made up.

To be honest I cant wait for Wenger to leave. When he does the fans intelligence will double.

Enjoy supporting PSG losers.

Agree0 Disagree0

Damn, Its amazing what a 8-2 kicking from Man-Utd does to the Arsenal faithful. Do you all forget back in 1992 when the score was 7-0 in Arsenals favor, you did'nt see the Mancs calling for Fergies head. Instead they dusted themselves off and got on with it and look at the tossers today.

The problem we have is and always will be the directors looking after the club and having the final say on all financial matters. Is this a bad thing you may ask, but again if the Arsenal faithful look back to the days of George Graham we were in a mess as a club on the financial side and look at us now.

1, The best stadium in the premiership
2, The capacity to fill that same stadium week in and week out
3, Probally the only team in the premiership that would pass the new fair play mandant
4, Arguably the best Manager in todays Modern game of football who radicalised the game in England
5, A Club who in less then 5 years will be totally dept free without a care in the world


Now thats what many would say is a great bit of footballing business, however many would also say means nothing unless your winning something. Then I point those ppl in the direction of Chelsea and Man City and say go buy a season ticket as there so fecking easy to get......

I say to the true Gooners, have the faith in AW hes never let us down when it matters. Week in and Week Out, his team keep us on the edge of out seats.



COME ON YOU GOONERS
Gooner4Life

Agree0 Disagree0

Then go support another team if you dont like it
true gooner1010

Agree0 Disagree0

WHAT DRIVEL!! We lost our two best players BECAUSE of Wenger (oh sorry I mean piss streak) ?! Seriously, you have the reasoning ability a 5 year old.

Perhaps you should question what nasri says as much as you question wenger - if you did you would perhaps think hmmm, maybe nasri's words could be from his PR team trying to stop him looking like a greedy money grabber. But then again we just don't know.

But hey what does doubt matter? - you clearly have none about wenger being a piss streak and that everything he does is wrong.

Morons like you damage the club just as much as anything else.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ah the old 'go support another team' argumented offered up by an imbecile.

Tell you what, I'll stick with Arsenal and you can go and support Leyton

Agree0 Disagree0

Gooner4Life, can I just ask, in 5 years time when fair play is well and truly in effect does this mean there will be wage caps and transfer caps or what? Because if so, then it won't matter one iota that we're debt free, all that means is the owners will be able to take more money out of the club and clubs like Fulham will be able to buy the same calibre of players as us. So we need to get our players now. If, however, financial fair play doesn't affect wages and transfer fee, then yes, if we get new owners who will pay what players deserve (I digress to the Arteta thing again, what a disgrace that he should have to take a pay cut to come us), then maybe yes we won't have a care in the world.
Raz

Agree0 Disagree0

NICE ONE GOONER4LIFE.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fair point. Re: fair play, what does it actually mean for us? Surely if my worries are correct (trying to find out if they are) then we should have gone for broke this summer and signed Eden Hazard, that PSG striker, Hazard's brother and Neymar, breaking the bank but in a 100m swoop but knowing that in 4-5 years we'd have the best midfield and the best striker in the world on capped wages...
I know AW has been building for the future in terms of buying young players but those 4 are the 4 brightest young prospects in the world that I can think of, surely we should be aiming for them?
Maybe I am getting the wrong end of the stick.
Raz

Agree0 Disagree0

Just what we need loads of person so called fans with dumb ass opinions, perhaps if they had one brain cell between them and understood how the real world works they would get behind the team and the manager mind you i expect they spend all day on FIFA 11 winning trophy after trophy. Time would be better spent learning to spell.

Agree0 Disagree0

It's time to back the Manager and the Club. Yes, we have had a bad start in the league but can you really blame the Manager for the combination of injuries and stupid suspensions that cost us so dearly. We do have bad luck with injuries, and Wilshere and Vermaelen are now out long term but it was ill discipline on the part of Song and Gervinho that led to 3 match suspensions. The club is run on a sound financial footing, and I personally think that the signings of experienced premiership players of the calibre of Arteta and Benayoun can only help develop the younger players. We will always have problems competing financially with Chelsea and the 2 Manchester clubs, but to bo continually challenging in the top 4 is testament to how well Wenger has done. As he himself said, the season starts this weekend and let's hope for a moral boosting victory ahead of teh chapions League, which I feel we are better equipped to tackle this season. RVP, Park, Ramsey and Gervinho alll netted for their respective international teams, so let's hope that form continues.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cesc - So we are supposed to keep a player who doesn't want to be here?

Nasri - £180k a week?

Who sets the wage levels? who decides the transfer budget? The Board in both instances. AW has consistently kept us at the top with a transfer budget equivalent to some sweets and a bit of string, and you 'holes criticise him?

Seriously, Arsenal fans who want Wenger out are either d*ckheads or loonies

Agree0 Disagree0

I think you should adapt your perspective to 'Arsenal fans who want Wenger out based solely on transfer dealings are loonies'.

Agree0 Disagree0

I'll blame Arsene for getting his tactics wrong; I won't blame him for asking for players and the board not ponying up for them.

As for AW telling the board to sell Fabs at a lower price: You think Fabs would have his head for Arsenal at this point? Puh-lease. He didn't have his head on for the club *last* season, what makes any of us think he'd have his head on for the club this season.

Lemme ask any of you this: You think that the moves that were made would've been made had the board said "no?" The board have hamstrung AW, simple as that. The Mata transfer just confirmed what I already had surmised: The board are cheap.

Agree0 Disagree0

How can you call the board ˜cheap™ when they ˜ponyed™ up £10m + for Chamberlain.
£10m+ on an unproven talent is a big risk in anyones book

Agree0 Disagree0

I call them "cheap" b/c they'd pay only £5-10K/week in wages for someone like AOC but won't pony up or match Chelsea's offer for Mata.

Yet Liverpool can pony up £20M for Henderson (who's also a big risk) AND whatever wages his agent asked for.

Agree0 Disagree0
