Does anyone remember Arsenal Wenger being under this much pressure before and this close to leaving? It's very exciting knowing we could be under a new (and hopefully better) manager next season.
Unless Wenger decides to stay, which would be his greatest WUM.
We need a new owner as well, a lot of Arsenals problems stem from Kroenke and his lack of ambition for playing success
Kroenke is a huge problem as well because he is clearly not interested in what happens on the pitch. He won't be going anytime soon though because he is making money for basically doing fuck all.
At the risk of using social media as a barometer, last night was a watershed moment....not in the result but in the attitude of Wengers staunchest defenders. The only argument people are making for him staying now is that there is not enough time between now and the start of the season to replace every facet of what Wenger does in a football sense. Which for me is total horse shit.Originally Posted by AFC Leveller
The club releasing the statement they did, when they have never done like that before suggests it's the end. He's past the point of no return in the fact that his position is untenable, people would just not turn up next season. Last night ironically came closer to Uniting the fan base than any decent result could have.
The same pressure was there last season but him leaving was never on the cards because he still had a year to run. Now though, it's very much a realistic prospect. The fanbase has never been as vocal as it is now and it would take some real bare faced cheek for Wenger to sign a new deal.
He's going and I'm looking forward to change. I could not give a flying fuck about the remainder of this season. Unless we see some miracles.

If he finally does leave, I'll be pretty happy, we can once again look forward to unpredictability and excitement, it's been a long time coming! It may take some time for a new manager to changes things due to the fact one man has controlled so much for so long, but it'll be worth it.
My only concern is seeing another Wenger clone coming in and Wenger going upstairs and this new guy being his yes man. Wenger needs to leave the club and never be involved again.
Agree about Kroenke though, he has not interest, would be great if he sold up to someone more like Abrahmovic who cares about what's happening on the pitch, once upon a time when he apeared people we predicting Chelsea collapsing when he left them after getting bored, never happened though as the guy clearly loves football and Chelsea.
We are less than 24 hours after the Bayern debacle. The corporation wants Wenger to stay. Wenger wants to stay. The fans want him gone. Let's not just assume the fans are going to win this based on something we've seen many times before. Pressure needs to be constantly applied to force him out the door. Too many people feeling sympathy for a man who brought a ton of shit on himself and everyone associated with the club. Too many people assuming the job is done. Far from it. Let the pressure off for just a moment and they'll find a way to cement this guy in place for at least another 2 years.
Für eure Sicherheit
Kroenke not caring could be considered a blessing in disguise if he left us alone and appointed someone who actually cared about club Arsenal and winning things to run the club. E,g let Gazidis actually do his job and sack the loon in charge. We dont need his money. The club is self sustaining enough to compete with the best and with the right manager at the helm, we could go from strength to strength on the pitch as well as in the accounts. We have lost so many fans in the last decade who didnt join the club because there is no allure to.
Arsenal gained a world following in the early 2000`s because of the immense success of the invincible era. Like it or not kids do not always follow their fathers allegiances. Not with the same fervour anyway.
I could take Wenger leaving today with Bould at the helm till the summer and Allegri taking over. If Wenger stays we are definitely losing Ozil and Sanches and I cannot see any world class player coming to take their places with shit shows like yesterday now the norm rather than the exception.
Make 2mrw better than 2day
cant be any worse
I'm starting to get the feeling that something will be announced soon.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
