Yeah Wenger Out!
Yeah Wenger Out!
I wanted him out but now wish he had never gone. Please Please somebody who cares but out Kroenke.
Basically agree with all that. What I don’t understand is how we got here.
Some will inevitably blame Wenger and while this is still largely his squad, in his last season we finished 6th.
Not sparkling but that was Wenger’s worst season (not bad for a manager who had been with us that long, IMO) and it was generally felt that a new manager would get more out of them.
Emery didn’t hugely improve things but we still got 70 points and got to the Europa League final so I call bullshit on Wenger leaving us with this terrible squad. This year has been a complete car crash. We are now a proper mid table side in a way we never were under Wenger and we weren’t in Emery’s first season.
How did we get here?
This is the worst Arsenal side since the mid-90s and even then they had a bit of fight about them and could raise it enough for the odd cup game to win a few trophies.
Cannot see how we dig ourselves out of this hole, Auba would be mad to stay and without him we are mid table through and through. We had to move on from Wenger and I never bought into the idea that any idiot would be an improvement but I’m somewhat baffled at how we’ve ended up this much worse. We haven’t exactly been frugal in the transfer market.
Auba would score 40 goals a season if he played for City or Liverpool. The fact he’s managed to score the amount he has in our dysfunctional team shows what a gem he is.
He’ll leave on a free, we’ll miss out on millions as usual and once again struggle to rebuild.
Ozil will still be here though, gracing us with an appearance once in a while.
Do you mean that in the sense that other managers (like Klopp, say) were available but we missed the boat?
Or do you mean that had we still been in the CL we’d have been able to attract a better class of manager?
Disagree with the latter if that’s what you mean. Throw enough money at someone and I don’t think that would have been much of a factor.
