so was agreeing to keep Arsenal in the top four for five years so that the banks would loan us the money to build the emirates

No that's not a risk, his job hasn't never been on the line, going to Madrid would have been a much bigger risk, it is for any manager due to the pressure and expectation which is way above anything here.

I get tired of listening to this guy, he's always got some excuse and a when tomorrow comes speech.

Exactly, he needs to wake up.

so if you win 5 trophies in 3 years and then don't go to madrid, your reputation suffers because you "haven't taken a risk"

ok then

That wasn't the question was it, the question was what was a bigger risk staying or leaving. There's no question going to Madrid would have been a bigger risk.

given he had just won the league unbeaten, id say staying and keeping Arsenal in the top four for 5 years with that pressure is a lot of a bigger risk. english football was changing then, chelsea suddenly had money, united too, while la liga is a 2 team league.

That black guy in the cap, pro Wenger, is in denial too. 'All the players are lightweight' , well who's the genius who keeps picking them then ?

and I'm fairly sure that you have called for Guardiola to take over from Arsene at one point. a man famous for taking risks, like leaving barca and taking over the best team in europe

No sorry, Madrid is one of the highest pressure jobs in football, staying was the easier option, that's obvious.

He never went to Madrid at any point, if you believe what you read he had the opportunity, but like I said he would have never left, too much risk and too much pressure, they wouldn't put up with failure to deliver success.
