Fall from grace might be a bit harsh, we are still a top 4 side despite the burden of a new stadium and the birth of the sugar daddy owner (Ignoring Jack Walker) we have been to 3 cup finals as well, we just fall the wrong side of that fine line people keep talking about. Are we weaker than when we were at Highbury? yes of course we are, is that all down to Wenger? NoAnd its this that has seen him fall so far from grace, because Gooners (and everyone else) have realised that the 'good business' has come at a high price - that price being a manager who is now treating our great club as his personal vanity project.
To AKBwhatshisfaces point i would suggest that a man management or tactics expert could take what we have right now and do very very well with it, I think if another more, dare i say, "football" manager type had the backing that Wenger has received under such furious criticism they would have won trophies in the last six years IMO.
Tis funny but i watched Wigan play the other night and was genuinely jealous of the effort, self belief and style they were operating with, and they are beyond shite. Comparing that to our keystone cops type of play is like comparing, erm, well Arsenal and Wigan.

This is the level of debate and rationalism here. The ignorant levels of crap written leave me no choice but to challenge it. I'm sure a bunch of people lurking have just given up.
