Board meeting on Tuesday. At least we should know once and for all what he's doing this week.
Journo's saying they think wenger is off because he never keeps his medals and he said he's keeping this one.
Think they're thinking too deeply about it tbh... he's had the more pressurised season of his life, he probably wants to keep this one as a middle finger to all the doubters.
He won't leave... stan will have to ok it and he only flies over a few times a year and was there yesterday. He saw us lift a trophy, fans singing his name and the team put in an incredible performance. To him it's probably all rosy.
If that's all he sees his judgement will be skewed... so why would he ask wenger to go? Nah
Disgraceful? If he decides to leave Arsenal and move on to a bigger club, I can't imagine another set of fans being this patient or restrained.Quote:

I think a lot of what Zim says borders on the absurd, but nothing he says is disgraceful because Wenger isn't some God like figure and questioning his competence isn't akin to blasphemy.
I don't personally want him hounded out because I think that would be an awful way for his time at Arsenal to end, but he's been given a perfect oportunity to leave on a high now but he won't take it simply because he's scared of not being in management.
I think this overly sensitive and overwrought response to, how dare people treat this man so disrespectfully. It's the culture of the club that has made him and certain fans think he deserves this degree of reverence, a reverence which would not be afforded any other manager in the game with the possible exception of Alex Ferguson.
If he was so wounded by what was being said he wouldn't even think about staying.
You'll always find idiots at either end of the spectrum. It's best to just ignore them and actually converse with people who have something legitimate to say for themselves and to not let the morons muddy the waters with "WOB" and "AKB" nonsense.
Sometimes I think without the platform of the internet football would have a much more rational and sane following.
When Wenger blames the fans for his own fuck-ups, which he does regularly, then he's going to get a bucket of shit thrown back at him. That's natural and totally acceptable. If he doesn't like it, then don't start it by talking shit about the fans.
No, if anything the Internet has toned it all down by allowing social martyrs to congregate around anything that isn't politically correct. Football today is a dinner party compared to the howling, screaming, fist throwing atmosphere of the past.Quote:

I knew it wouldnt take much for you to start crooning about him again.
I've said consistently that I hope he leaves with one final FA Cup. I am still of that opinion. I repeated it above. He HAS failed to challenge for the biggest trophies and with our squad and resources that isn't good enough, but I don't think people should be calling him a **** every 5 minutes.
