Under it all, I think we all know what this club and this team is capable of if pushed to the limits that should be a natural benchmark in competitive sport. That's where the fury comes from. Knowing that the people in which huge trust and treasure island resources have been poured into can't push themselves to the same degree as a fan who saves his pennies and jumps in the car for his 20th road trip. It's supposed to be a partnership but it's one-sided as things stand and when you add the obnoxious arrogance of a character like Wenger on top then sure, spitting back at him is highly understandable.
