The football isn't great at the moment but its been pretty much the same for the past five years, so I don't know why your getting your panties in a twist about Wenger needing to be extricated from the club.
We aren't going to win the title whoever we have, and whoever we buy in January.....results and performances are pretty average but we aren't in crisis, and until such time it seems pointless turfing out a manager mid-season.
Do I wish there was someone different at the helm?....ideally yes as much as I still like Wenger on a personal level he's given us all he's got and there is no room for sentiment in this game. My issue runs deeper than him though, and I harbour a lot of resentment towards David Dein without whom I doubt any of us would have ever heard the names E.Stanley Kroenke and Alisher Usmanov.
Except that no one has claimed the bit in bold, right?

All we are saying is, the sooner we start the rebuilding process under a new more tactically astute manager, one who sees the obvious squad deficiencies and takes steps in the transfer market to address them, one who studies the opposition and comes up with a game plan accordingly, and one who doesn't make predetermined substitution comes in, the better.

Been saying ever since I joined this forum that Wenger is a spent force living off past glories and buoyed by a cult following. Was mocked, ridiculed, derided and patronised for that bit.

Glad to see some blinkers coming off now.

Ffs u know it just is no longer worth fighting for when even our dear friend Ollie has tossed in the towel.
