hi everyone
i understand this may be contentious.
i think it is extremely important we keep AW. hopefully a new contract, another 3 years at least, can be amicably agreed.
if AW was to leave, i am sure he would be sorely missed. in my opinion what AW has achieved and indeed continues to produce is absolutely marvellous.
anyway, just my opinion.
COYG andi.
{Ed025's Note - i expect him to leave at the end of the season andi, he has said he will, and i think hes excellent as well, he could move upstairs i suppose but i would like to see him take the england job myself mate..

Personally I think winning the title should be the only consideration to signing any new contract.
Whilst he has been amazing all good things come to an end.
{Ed025's Note - "party pooper, party pooper".. :)

Andi, I'd love wenger to sign a new contract, but, somethings got to change, we need to start every transfer window, the same as we finished this one.
The "there's no value in the market" is easy for wenger to use, but it is getting frustrating.
"if" we're going to replace him, I'd like to see someone younger, who also, shares the same values on the youth squad, there's not many managers around that will put that trust in a youth player.

If we finished in the champions league last 4 and within 3pts of the premier league winners come next May I'd be very happy for Arsene to stay as our manager.
There are only two big prizes available each season and lots of clubs who feel they can win them so imo its unreasonable to demand champions league or premier league wins but to demand we genuinely compete for both is very reasonable expectation of a big club like Arsenal.
Let's see where we are in May because as Theo said on Saturday we've all been here before and it's doing it over a season that matters but so far so very very good.

Nothing has changed for me, prove he can still win the prem or champs league and he can stay. But thirteen failed attempts would be enough for me. Things are going well today, they have to still go well in march april and may. We still have nervous November to negotiate as well. Prove he's capable and he deserves whatever he wants.
{Ed025's Note - your a very generous guy steve.. :)

Ed025 - I do not wish to contradict you, as I know a certain other Ed doesn't take kindly to people disagreeing with him, but Wenger has not stated that he will leave at the end of the season, he simply said he will wait until then before making a decision.
However, my gut feeling, like yours is that he will leave, as he was hurt severely by the fans turning against him. I believe he will end up at PSG, with whom he has strong links.
I hope I am wrong and he stays as he will extremely difficult to replace. In respect of the national job, he stated previously that he believes national teams should be managed by fellow nationals, so I would assume that he will turn up as French manager sometime in the future when his club management days are done.
Also, he isn't ready to give up the everyday contact with players and coaching them that he now enjoys, so national team management isn't on the agenda yet. If Arsenal do well this season and the fans give Wenger the support he deserves, he may well sign for a further period, as it would be difficult to walk away from what he built.

RG69 is right I think, he hasn't stated he will leave. Steve is also right, let's see what happens, but I don't think he will leave, if he has the backing of Arsenal and the fanbase. I think he knows he has to prove it, so let's see what happens.

Champions league last 4, within a whisker of the title!
I doubt he'd walk away but the usual champions league last 16 and not competitive top 4 I think it's Thank you and Tata time from everyone's point of view.
{Ed025's Note - the problem is who replaces him G62?, arsenal is a top top club and im sure will have many suitors but it wont be as easy as some think i can assure you mate, howe, simeone, koeman?...3 of the top choices i expect but will they bring the success everyone is craving? well i very much doubt it, in these days of the microwave supporters demanding instant success they wont give the successor the time to build and thats not just arsenal its every team, you only have to look at united,s struggle to replace fergie and they are probably a higher profile club than the gunners...i have said this before but...be careful what you wish for, the grass is not always greener as im sure you will find out...and which i will constantly remind you of...you can count on that.. :)

Wenger with the England job, I would love to see that.

Fair comment Ed025 mate :-) but should Arsene go at the end of the season without making a serious challenge home or in Europe and the next bloke comes in and makes us serious contenders again I'm sure you won't mind me mentioning it on here occasionally will you? Plus the Everton page and of course down the kebab shop 3 times a day over your breakfast dinner and tea :-)
{Ed025's Note - lol..i will hold my hands up and say "i was wrong" G62..but my guess is you will be saying sorry more than fat sam mate.. :)
10.) 29 Sep 2016 18:08:11
The best case scenario is we win the league Arsene stays and I get to apologise to you over several bottles of Becks while we talk about what a good job Keoman has done for you in his first season by making you both premier league and FA cup runners up mate :-)
Let's hope so.
{Ed025's Note - ill drink to that mate.. :)
