In my eyes he lost what little credibility he had left tonight. Not that he was ever accomplished in Europe but tonight proved just how far his stock has fallen.

He's been getting done over in Europe for years. Whether it's Henry and Bergkamp or Welbeck and Giroud, didn't matter who the players were Wenger would get found out. Has to be him, he's the only constant.

Even with a collection of the most talented players ever assembled by Arsenal in 2000-2004 he was never able to crack the CL, We fluked a final appearance in 2006 and thats as close as its been. Wenger will never win the CL as in any given season there are at least 20 superior managers out there. Note I said managers not teams because a good manager can add at least 20% to a given team with tactics and man management. Prof Cleseau here couldn't manage the Brazil 1970 team to win this cup. If he had Messi in this team. He would play him in midfield with instructions to pass to Giroud.
Thats it.
Really lacking in the CL. in the PL, the fact that we have betetr players than most means we can fluke 4th but in the CL, inferior teams have coahces who drill them and set them up to compete, we on the other hand have a clueles manager who has had 18 years to sort himself out with hundres of players from world class to shit and he still makes the same mistakes he did back in 1996.
Can someone explain to me how a player like Oscar, younger, skinnier and smaller than Ozil (and inferior) manages to be consistant in the PL, hold up challenges, tackle harder, resist the physical nature and looks like he enjoys it too.
All it has really meant in the last few years is we haven't been quite as ordinary as the shite just behind us. In the cold light what we have in almost a decade is a narrow win in an FA Cup final, a game that could have gone either way. Still counts but with everything we do there's this haphazard nature to it. We're always one step away from catastrophe. Somehow Wenger bundles and shoos them over the line each year like a gaggle of whores with their knickers half down escaping a police raid. It's all so undignified for a supposedly top flight club.
