QED Letters wins the Internet. So, you see, it is indeed your own ridiculous nonsense we are discussing here.
The thing you seem to miss is that not many people talk to you. What happens is, somebody makes a point and then you dive in and make some general statement about that somebody saying something different at a previous time. I suppose the implication is the person concerned is wrong now because they said something else previously. And because you tend to insert yourself into any debate that even mildly criticises Wenger, you use these tactics in an attempt to disprove each and every criticism of the bloke. For sure, I know you have a few stock phrases on hand to make it look like your defence is applied evenly. Yes he should be sacked, gobble, gobble, gobble, yes he should have done better, gobble, gobble, swallow. It's a pattern I'm sure everyone is familiar with. Along with the other habits and patterns, such as twisting context, stealing context and pushing it back on your protagonists, reflection techniques, and so on. The more people engage with you the more words you can steal from them for your purpose and the more sentences and paragraphs you have to selectively choose from and liberally distort. That's why I mean when I point out the fact you are a liar.
Then, when people do the same to you, and even exaggerate to make it clear what the intent is, you muster up your chutzpah and... call them a liar. I have to admit, it's entertaining.
But anyway, it seems very important to you that Wenger be considered an above average manager who somehow, despite his record, has done good work at the club in the last decade. Fine. Life's too short. I concur. Wenger is an above average manager who has done good work at the club during the last decade.
All that remains is for me to ask you a question.
Now that we agree, do you think we are fooling anyone else?
