I'm ok with that if we do win the FA Cup with Budweiser. It'd be a season with a fairly large difference to the rest recently and we'll see if actually inspires anybody afterwards for next season. I presume not but I'd like to see him get the chance otherwise we've wasted a lot of time discussing just how important it is to win things.
I more or less agree with that. The trophy should he win it will inevitably buy him a certain amount of patience with many. Even if it won't make a difference for many too.
Yes that is how I would feel about it. Although for his own sanity I'd like to see him go having left some sort of success but I can see why he would get the bug and stay on if he does win the FA Cup.
A 2 year deal is significant because he's always signed on for 4 years. Le Grove made an interesting observation about the new youth coach coming in and also a few other changes below the first team, with coaches being sought externally. Seems as though preparation has already begun for the post-Wenget era.
I want a change regardless of what happens in the cup final but 2 more years is not going to bother me considering I've been disillusioned for longer than that already. Plus we have some money and might win a trophy, so that's good at least for the short term.
He is staying?! :banghead:
More tippy tappy uninspiring BS for the next 2 years then! :trophy:
Arsenal FC :rose:
Yeah, very interesting take on the subject from the guest writer on Le Grove today - made a lot of sense to me...Quote:

Finally it looks like we'll get our grubby mitts on a major trophy so people are busily moving goalposts and finding other reasons to have a moan. As for the way we play, it's very good at times, not so good at others. But it's interesting how Wenger is being slaughtered for it while Mourinho's being hailed as a genius for his very expensive squad parking the bus and playing awful boring football.
I always thought he was going to stick around. I don't want him to but he's the manager of the club and I want us to win trophies so good luck to him.
Well I want him to stay because it's far and away the best option for the club in general. Haven't seen a single name mentioned who's actually available and could do a better job. All pure speculation - running Arsenal is not the same as pubbing a few results for Palace or performing above expectation for Everton.
You don't know until you try, managers often move clubs even when contracted if the job appeals.Quote:

After years of the same and pretty boring sh*t on the pitch, I personally would be happy to just have a change, something to freshen the stale air around the club and perhaps bring back excitement and anticipation.
