He could have gone right at the top of his game - and for even more than he was getting here, but he didn't. And even if he had gone and it all went tits up at Madrid, if it is exclusively about money, what did he care, he'd have been doing a circuit at a range of top clubs based on his existing achievements.
I'll level lots at Wenger, but I'll never doubt his loyalty and love of the Club.
End of the day If Wenger is as stubborn as people say then what he earns makes no diffrence to anything he does.As for being happy to do it for no money, it's easy to say that when you're earning 7 million a year, I don't see him putting his money where his mouth is though,
No one would turn down a pay rise don't see the problem tbh. End of the day he does his job well and pleases his employers so if they think he deserves a pay rise then thats their right.I don't see him turning down those rises offered to him either.
Should he say "actually i don't think i deserve this even if i met all your goals.
Not really it depends where he went, If he went to PSG, het get similar pay to he has now and as he is respected in french footie i guess they give him time to build a team.The point of commanding similar elsewhere comes with much more risk, he wouldn't have the comfortable position he has now, they'd expect success so the situation would be completely different, I'm pretty sure he'd be out of a job after a couple seasons at those clubs willing to pay him a similar wage, that's not the case here at all.
If he went to a club like city or Chavs he'd not have that luxury.
There seems to be so much emphasis on Wenger getting £ 7mill a year personally, it don't bother me and never will.
a few posts in one thread isn't that much emphasis - the wasted money on useless players is far more of a concern and is talked about far more on here from what i can see.

GB brought up the point that he'd do it if there was no money in it, I was simply making the point that talk is cheap when you're earning big bucks and getting and gratefully accepting rises in salary.
He may or may not, one things for sure he wouldn't get time, the owners are from the Middle East I believe and want success now not in 7 years, respect is soon forgotten when you fail to meet your targets.

We've all said at some point that the board need to put some pressure on Wenger. He's way too comfortable and he'd be under pressure at clubs like PSG or Real Madrid. He's able to get on with his work here without interference from the top guys. He's able to indulge in the youth project, develop players and take risks. One off season at Real and they'd probe and start suggesting he buys certain players. He wouldn't like that. There isn't as much freedom at those sort of clubs.
I don't mean in this thread, its been said all over Afc debate.
not so sure myself - i had hardly seen much talk about it until someone mentioned it earlier in the week which sparked the debate in here. then again, i'm not here as much as you guys so maybe i'm wrong.
