    I'm ok with that if we do win the FA Cup with Budweiser. It'd be a season with a fairly large difference to the rest recently and we'll see if actually inspires anybody afterwards for next season. I presume not but I'd like to see him get the chance otherwise we've wasted a lot of time discussing just how important it is to win things.

    I more or less agree with that. The trophy should he win it will inevitably buy him a certain amount of patience with many. Even if it won't make a difference for many too.

    Yes that is how I would feel about it. Although for his own sanity I'd like to see him go having left some sort of success but I can see why he would get the bug and stay on if he does win the FA Cup.

    A 2 year deal is significant because he's always signed on for 4 years. Le Grove made an interesting observation about the new youth coach coming in and also a few other changes below the first team, with coaches being sought externally. Seems as though preparation has already begun for the post-Wenget era.

    I want a change regardless of what happens in the cup final but 2 more years is not going to bother me considering I've been disillusioned for longer than that already. Plus we have some money and might win a trophy, so that's good at least for the short term.

    Yeah, very interesting take on the subject from the guest writer on Le Grove today - made a lot of sense to me...

    You really should have seen Arsenal before Wenger came along, it was bloody awful at times.

    Most of the moaning has been about us not winning trophies. We don't have any God given right to win them and it's definitely harder to do so now with the billionaires buying them up left, right and centre, but you'd expect a club at our level to do. Finally it looks like we'll get our grubby mitts on a major trophy so people are busily moving goalposts and finding other reasons to have a moan. As for the way we play, it's very good at times, not so good at others. But it's interesting how Wenger is being slaughtered for it while Mourinho's being hailed as a genius for his very expensive squad parking the bus and playing awful boring football.

    I always thought he was going to stick around. I don't want him to but he's the manager of the club and I want us to win trophies so good luck to him.

    Well I want him to stay because it's far and away the best option for the club in general. Haven't seen a single name mentioned who's actually available and could do a better job. All pure speculation - running Arsenal is not the same as pubbing a few results for Palace or performing above expectation for Everton.

    You don't know until you try, managers often move clubs even when contracted if the job appeals.

    I guess a collapse and the beginning or end of season, 4th place and getting beaten in the last 16 of the CL is good enough then, that's what will happen, we already know.

    After years of the same and pretty boring sh*t on the pitch, I personally would be happy to just have a change, something to freshen the stale air around the club and perhaps bring back excitement and anticipation.
