Arsenal AGM

The Board and Wenger are dancing to the same tune. Wenger is no victim and that image of him being helpless can be laid to rest.

yes and no but its was PHW who more or less stuck two fingers up to the fans/Shareholders again to seems at least Wenger was honest

Meaningless garbage. We want numbers and facts. And we are not getting numbers and facts because of this:

The Arsenal manager added: "To stay at the top, top level we have to stay united.

"That does not mean not I am not to be criticised, or the board — we accept that, but we have to show to the outside we are united. If you are not, then you have no chance."

---

Why? What difference does it make to remain 'united'? Wenger won't say exactly what the board are doing or how much money he has available to strengthen the squad because they want to present a 'united' front. Sometimes an under-performing player needs to be strung out in public to show that there are consequences. This obsession with 'class' (as he calls it) has gone on far too long. Everyone knows that everything's not right at the club - he, himself, says everything's not right. There is absolutely nothing classy in the fake smiles.

These players are ready to fight. Trust us.

---

No. That's not how it works. They need to show it - a massive performance on Sunday with every player seen to scrap for every 50/50 and run themselves to the ground for 90 mins regardless of the result.

Quote:

---

"I can see a lot of fear and discontent among you — and I can understand that because we live in a world where we fight with people who have extremely high resources.

---

It really isn't. The 'discontent' stems from the fact that we still don't know how to deal with a basic set-piece. We don't need four £20m defenders to be able to do that. We need proper management and organisation to make the best of what we have.

We are getting a politician's answers. Honesty clearly has no place here.

Hmmm...thin line there. PHW was honest as well.

Wenger might as well have just said, "ain't shit changing round here, back my philosophy, you're free to bitch and moan...well it ain't free...but you know what I mean...we need you're funds/support."

But he just went about it in a nicer way. Nothing is changing and that might as well be a two fingers up as well.

Why is that shocking? You think they came into this lose money and go bust?

I work for a very stingy company. They are mean bastards. But if I go to my boss and tell him our department needs new PC's because the current lot are slow and keep crashing, I expect my boss to speak to the powers at be to invest in new models and let them know that it will boost morale and efficiency. I don't expect to come back with some keep the faith shit, trust me and work harder. He should be fighting for the workers interest and benefits. With Wenger, it's like he has his priorities all messed up.
