    The only flip side to this is usually when players/teams are playing like dogshit and the manager is sacked, 9 times out of 10, those very same players start playing well under the new manager.

    Very true, Players like Gev and Rambow would have to work 10 times harder otherwise the new manager will drop em or even sell em.

    This is why i find it funny they don't even try now.

    They don't have to, that's the problem.

    Wenger will play them until the cows come home whether they're shit or not.

    The Club would have to pay them off - and we fund the Club.

    Well, when I say 'we' I mean 'you'.

    I'm done - I even need to plan again for the las couple of presents I'm buying, because I refuse to buy any Arsenal merchandise whatsoever.

    You can't compare the real world to this fucked up sport.
    Besides that, it's down to the manager to make that call. After every single game, Wenger praises the effort and team spirit. If players could be sacked he wouldn't be the man to make such a call anyway.

    To be honest it's a hard one as if you sign players you want to make sure they are tied down so that if they become top class you're not left with no choice but to sell them for peanuts, granted we've not managed that very well but that would be the thinking.

    Problem is when we sign players that are clearly sh*t like Chamakh and Gervinho, stick them on big long term contracts.
