    People's views about this will vary over time but for most of the summer there were very few people defending Wenger.
    A very good signing and start to the season and that will clearly change people's opinions so I started the thread to find out where people were at right now.
    It's pretty much the point of this place
    After two games, it's silly for anyone to have a firm stance on this. Ozil hasn't even played a home game yet. The team needs time and there is no fair way to assess the direction of the club at this point.

    Pretty sure he'll go at the end of the season regardless of how we get on. He normally signs with at least a year or so to go. The easy thing for him would've been to sign a new contract now (or a couple of weeks ago) when the fans were delighted with the Ozil signing, and Ozil himself said that Wenger was the main reason he signed. We are also playing well right now (2nd in the table) and I think now would've been the best time to slip the news under the radar a little when games are coming thick and fast.

    But he hasn't done that and I fully expect him to walk out at the end of the season. Go to PSG or Real Madrid or summat.

    People had a firm enough stance after one game

    You're right to an extent of course but I thought it would be interesting to see how people's opinions had changed after the Özil signing and the good start to the season.

    Okay, Adrian Durham! After one game people wanted Wenger out.

    Slow day, huh?

    It's never to early for this thread considering the drought we have had for 7/8 years. Hell, I'd like to see him lift a trophy, but one top signing does not vindicate his poor management performance since our last trophy.

    Agree Letters that there's nothing wrong with debating this now although I disagree with your opinion on Wumger. He will always be seen as a legend in my eyes, he has helped transform this club into one of the finest in the world ( even with limited recent success on the pitch ) & we are envied by many ( especially the Spuds ). However the lack of new signings means that he is too naive to manage & have success in a league which unfortunatley is financially very different to when he 1st arrived & enjoyed success. We need a manager who can move with the times, not one that is stuck in time. There are now plenty of managers hell bent on playing the beautiful game a-la Barcelona but unless you are prepared to pay the money for the quality of the likes of Messi, Xavi, Iniesta etc then it can't & won't happen.
    Bayern dominate the German league because they buy the best players & pay the best wages. The same for Barca & Madrid. You will now see it with PSG in France. Man City did within 2 years of money arriving, what they couldn't do for 25 years. Chelsea the same.
    Wumger won't have it & thinks he can compete on a different level. The last 8 years should be proof that he can't & the fact that we didn't buy at least 1 class striker in transfer window should be a sackable offence on its own.
    He says he is concerned about the strength of his squad - who's fault is that.

    There were plenty of rational reasons for wanting a change. The only morons are the militant fans who camp at one end of the spectrum.

    I forgive you though.
