I think Alexis is off by the looks of it. He reportedly kicked off after the defeat.

You don't remember what is like before the sponsorship deals? The Board were getting it on a daily basis. Ivan and Stan were constantly being held up as the problem but nobody wanted to criticise Wenger. People kept on saying it would be a mistake to get rid of Wenger. He was untouchable and the Board knew how popular he was. Wenger's made this situation for himself. The way he has spoken about the fans over the past few years hasn't helped either.Originally Posted by Letters
I think if he goes now people will appreciate what he's done for us. While I understand the frustration of repeated mistakes and the balls he comes out with in interviews (although no more than most managers), I'll never understand the level of hatred which some people direct towards him. IMO that should be reserved for the board who have allowed this situation to go on and are quite happy to let it go on while the money keeps rolling in. Wenger at least cares and wants us to do better, even if he's not able to.
I think he's gone already, regardless of what happens with the manager situation. Wouldn't be surprised if he has already agreed something in private with one of the big Italian clubs or back to Spain.
I have a feeling that Ozil will stay because he knows he has it good at Arsenal.
'No matter what happens I will manage next season, whether it’s here or somewhere else' - Next Barca manager?
He also said he will decide his future in March or April.
Utter, utter, utter contempt for the fans again.
Roll him out so he can spout the same old bullshit. After a performance like that he couldn't give the fans even a second of honesty, just the same preachy, never-had-it-so-good horse manure.

How many "sources" do we have at the club? Sounds like the tea lady chimed in on this one.

Really?

It might have something to do with him washing his hands of any of the blame and having the audacity to point the finger at the people effectively paying his wages the fans, no other manager in the history of the game and blamed the fans as much as he has. In addition to that, his holier than thou attitude and his I know better than everyone else in the whole wide world because I've made more than 20000 substitutions and you haven't despite going 12 odd years with little success really doesn't help.
Hatred may be a bit harsh, but it's easy to see why people get very irritated with him, he never learns, insists he's always right despite plety of evidence to the contrary and deflects the blame away from himself and the players.....then at the end of the season when he gets a pathetic 4th place he pats himself and the players on the back and says good job another big trophy in the bag.
He's way past his sell by date and frankly he's developed a really pompous attitude as well, and that goes for when anyone dares question his methods and he gets annoyed as well, they have to filter questions out at the AGM for goodness sake because he's scaed to face the music.
Hi comment about people's attitudes just because we lost 2 games sums him up really, he's totally oblivious to what has taken place for som many years.
I'll also never forget him blaming the fans for Adebayor (they guy who hasn't been able to stick to one club for his entire career) leaving.
Sums him up and this is one of the reasons some people really can't stand him, he really insults the fans intelligence, frankly amazed people have supported him for so long give his attitude.
I'll be very glad to see the back of him and certainly won't shed a tear, well if I do it will be a tear of joy!
Remember what what was like? On here? It was more mixed, admittedly, but there were a lot of people moaning about Wenger before the new financial deals too.
He was certainly not untouchable, not on here anyway.
A lot of people defended him saying he had no money, he was doing a great job it was all the boards fault, only a handful put the balme on his doorstep, he's getting it in the ear now because he has no excuses to hide behind anymore, about time too really he is in charge with the football aside after all (and a lot more if you believe what you hear) and he just hasn't been doing a good enough job for many a year.
Yes he gets 4th place, but really that's just a springboard or should be, no other club would just settle for getting 4th every year, we're now just a club that accepts being 2nd best, it runs right through the club and that I'm afraid is very much Wenger's fault, he's instilled that in the players and it's very evident on the pitch, no desire, ho hunger, no appreciation for the fans.
It's going to take some time to get rid of that, because it's been going on so long, once upon a time we dreamed about challenging the very best clubs after our move to the new stadium, Wednesday was yet another example of the culmination of his work, we're miles away from the top clubs and unlike them the losers mentality is rife and goes right through the club from top to bottom.
People harp on about doing things the right way and yet we have an owner who's only interest is money, would rather have the guy at Chelsea who clearly cares about the club and winning, in my eyes that's certainly more right than what we're doing.
I think we're a shadow of the club we once were.
