Or, this is all just grandstanding to divide the fans and impair the growth of the anti-Wenger movement. So far we've seen the invisible CEO step up and (through Wenger) appear to be pushing for change. Shame we can't hear that directly from the man himself, but he seems to like his shadows as much as Kroenke does. Then we've had the joyous news we are signing Mbappe or Aubameyang and we'll smash our transfer record (and presumably our wage policies) to do it. And we've had Wenger's switch to a back 3 (or 5, depending who we are playing), showing Wenger is agile and responsive (rather than desperate and out of ideas).

Funny, isn't it. As soon as the protests start gathering pace the sleepy lot in the back offices spring into action. And yet, so far, it's mostly words and precious little action. Even the little action we have seen, the switch in defensive systems, has seen Wenger fuck up big time against the spuds when he screwed around with the team, dropping Holding and recalling Giroud in the process. So I'm not fooled into thinking he's changed his spots. And we still have no official word on whether Wenger plans to stay or go.

In the end, I don't trust anything that comes out of the club and I don't trust the motives of anyone there. Would be nice if there is real change in the offing, but I'll believe it when I see it.
