it would be great if that was the case but he's such a master politician that any truth will get lost amongst all his double speak. i'll still buy it though.Quote:

Wenger has clearly stated the youth project was his project. See the quote in the above post.
There is nothing to speculate about. No one in wengers position will last that long if they are not calling major shots.
I meant more about his general time there and stories we've never even heard.
"Hypothetical" money. What did you want him to do, start naming names? You can't seriously base any analysis on such a flimsy quote? And yes, the youth project was his. But not in isolation from the rest of the club. That's not how decisions are made in a large business. How many times did we hear the rumours of in-fighting in the boardroom? How could this have been if multiple individuals weren't involved in setting the direction of the club? I didn't say the youth policy wasn't his. I said we don't know for sure what the thinking behind or purpose of that policy was. And we don't, which is why there is something to speculate about. Most things in fact, until the day we get inside the boardroom.Quote:

He finishes 5th he stays too. They have all said as much. Unless the fans make it too hot for them I suppose, or Wenger decides enough is enough. But I think he identified that point as 15th place.Quote:

That is the point of this discussion.
Of course. That is the sad part.Quote:
