The guy just refuses to change, 10 years of this rubbish now and it's been proven to be a failed footballing ideologogy and yet he continues to persist with this, I just don't understand it, noone with half a brain wouldn't have changed it after 10 years an yet this guy supposedly a top manager still carries on with blind belief and the fact it will work.

People get angry when former players rate other managers over Wenger, why though, he's proven he's not that great over the last decade so why be surprised if players think he's not that great either, it's probably because deep inside they know it's true.

Leicester City are top the table! That says enough. All this talk reminds of Wenger’s financial doping excuses. It’s time to stop it. Even with the doped up teams on their knees we can’t take advantage but somehow Leicester City are able to.

You can't really judge Leicester until the end of the season.

It's really not that hard to improve us and make us more successful, it's just that we have a manager who insists of following flawed principles and is more stubborn than a mule and refuses to make the necessary changes, these simple facts make him an average manager IMO, a good manager would be making these simple changes and we would be a much better side for it.

Let's be honest here, Wenger has been living on his reputation for years, once upon a time he apparently revolutioned football, won a few cups and titles....this miraculously all ended when he changed everything about this winning formula to follow some crazy arse idea of building mini Barcelona to improve chances in the CL, the result of this of course was no more titles and less success in the CL.

To this day he still doesn't recognise this and continues with his flawed policies, you couldn't make it up!

You made me think of Richard Littlejohn.

Richard fucking Littlejohn.

You couldn't make it up.

You could.

And he did.

Last-year-of-contract-itis.

We saw similar 7/8 years ago before he left. Although without the false 9 role.
