Wenger Referendum: Yes Or No

[Injury Time]

I'm not trying to convince anyone of that or debating it. He has been a safe pair of hands. We have qualified for the CL every year under him and while I accept we'll never win it under him you say later in your post the 'only' reason for being in it...and then go on to list 3 very important reasons. Clubs are spending silly money to try and break into the top 4 and none have consistently succeeded, apart from Wenger. I think we all agre he is not the right man to push on but it's disrespectful (and clearly untrue) to think that any idiot can do better (I'm not sure if anyone has actually said that but the way people talk about him on hear implies they think that) and Wenger deserves credit for what he's done for us and if he left at the end of the season (I doubt he will) he'd leave us with a very good squad and in great shape financially. I saw today that we have a surplus of over £100m, Utd have debts of over £300m. Wenger has his faults which make us all want to throttle him sometimes but he isn't the clueless buffoon some on here make out.

Minus £82m we owe on transfers....
Wenger little bit 2% short of domination

Right now I would take any of 15 coaches in the Premier league ahead of Wenger

Really?. Now for me that argument smacks of familiarity breeding contempt, that some fans are so bored of how things are currently that they would literally take anyone.

Rodgers is a fraud who is just as tactically naive as Wenger (and just look at the amount of money he's wasted on players)
Pellegrini much the same, filled that City squad with a load of average players since he took over
Mourinho we couldn't have here because his narcassism would destroy any shred of integrity we still maintain to have as a club
Van Gaal is an arrogant fool who is as much of a dinosaur as Wenger in his coaching and training methods (look at the injuries they have, it's no coincidence)
Koeman and Pochetinno have potential but we all said the same about Martinez last season and look how much he's struggling this season

No other manager in the Premier League is even worth mentioning. And you mention Moyes and Real Sociedad?. Firstly that's about the level of club management that Moyes is good for, second of all is he really actually doing that well there?.....this is a team that qualified for the Champions League two seasons ago and hasn't won away from home at all this season.

I'm sick of the same year in, year out......i'm sick of the same mistakes.....but i'm not prepared for things to get worse just for change for changes' sake.

Wenger's time is up, whether it's now or whether he limps on till 2017, but it's not just about getting rid of him it's about bringing someone in who can take us forward.

And frankly i'd rather keep Wenger till 2017 if it meant getting in someone like Guardiola, than getting rid of him at the end of the season and ending up with someone like Roberto Martinez.

[Globalgunner]

Yes you are right i am familiar with Wengers horseshit and I have nothing but contempt for it. He is doing nothing special. We are the 4th richest team in the EPL and he regularly comes 4th. Why does he deserve special praise for that?. We have never has a history of employing top managers and we somehow have accumulated more titles than anyone except United. So no, we dont have to wait for Guardiola . If Wenger got struck by lightning tomorrow anyone of 15 managers would still get 4th...and we wouldn't regularly get humiliated like we do now.

amazing how we are lying in 3rd position in the league, within a whisker of 2nd ..after what we consider to have been a poor season so far.

I think this season has definitely been worse in terms of performances than results in that, we have won or drawn many games where the performances have been diabolical. However it's all relative because we haven't seen the Monster humiliations like last season.

[Marc Overmars]

We were 3rd this time last year as well but we were also 8 or 9 points better off and involved in the title race.

[Letters]

Yes, just checked (thanks, statto.com) and we were 8 points better off and only a point off the top.
It does feel like it's been a bad season but after the early season gloom we are picking up, we're 3rd, in touching distance of 2nd and in the FA Cup Quarter Finals. It's hardly been a disaster so far.

Wait for FA Cup at Man U. On present form I would worry about playing Corinthian Casuals
