If this is true then we really need to start discussing whether Wenger should be sacked today or tomorrow to give the new guy at least a week to do something in the transfer window.

Freiburg deny Ginter is set to move to Arsenal
The Bundesliga side's sporting director dismissed reports suggesting the Gunners had agreed a fee for the 19-year-old as "nonsense" and intends to keep him at the club
Freiburg have denied that Germany Under-21 starlet Matthias Ginter is close to joining Arsenal.
The 19-year-old defender-cum-midfielder had been linked with a €7 million move to the north London club, with Arsene Wenger looking to bolster a backline that is without the injured Thomas Vermaelen.
But the Bundesliga club's sporting director Jochen Saier has dismissed claims that the Gunners have agreed a deal for Ginter, and says there has been no contact of any kind regarding a transfer.
"That's nonsense. We have not received an inquiry and there are no thoughts about selling him," Saier told Badische Zeitung.
Freiburg's insistence that Ginter is not for sale is another blow to Arsenal during a disapointing summer window, having already had a £42m bid for Luis Suarez rejected and with Yaya Sanogo the only new arrival.
Ginter has made 23 Bundesliga appearances last season for Freiburg, playing predominantly at centre-back, and scored his only goal of the season in February against Werder Bremen.

So the big question is, do we want to win a game or eat a game?
There's also the bit where he says "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" where the board and manager don't think anything is broken and tickets are sold out, it makes sense and makes me even more convinced this whole bidding thing this summer was just a ploy meant to fail to upease a few fans.
The tickets are sold at the end of the day so what are they gonna do if we don't sign any top class players, nothing!
The Arsenal we loved and cherished has gone! The Club is now owned by people that dont care! They are not Arsenal Supporters......unlike David Dein. As soon as Dein went, the problems started in my opinion.
Those of you who remember the 70's, 80's and some of the 90's supporting Arsenal, it was an almost "family" club, there was a kind of bond between the board, the players and the fans.
Shame about the Ginter guy. Seems like he would have been a good signing.
Pretty sure the Romanian bloke is a troll rumour by the way. Give Wenger some credit at least.
I wish we were, we'd have a bigger stadium which would have cost us a lot less and a much more competitive team.
I disagree about his influence being exaggerated, he had tonnes of contacts, football was his number 1 priority and he's the reason we signed a lot of the players we did.
