But don't you think Letters, that if we had gone for the best of the best, the Alegris and Simones we were all talking about then; maybe the dream of a fan like NQ would have had a better chance of coming true?Originally Posted by Letters
I think that's somewhat over-stating things.
But has it ever been this bad? Not since 2006. Probably not since the mid 80s at least. This is the worst I can remember things.
I'm just highlighting the fact that people who said that anyone would do better than Wenger are now, when that had been shown to be wrong, now saying "well, of course we're worse now, because of all the damage Wenger did". When Wenger left NQ said he'd be expecting a new manager come in and challenge for the title in 2 years. Now he's saying that was never possible?
The mentality of this club is the problem, when faced with world class choices we always want to shock everyone by going for the person no one really rates or is untested. Emery was never among the best 10 managers in the world, he was an underdog for the job in the beginning but yet our small time entitilement mentality makes sure we go for the less risky choice... A yes man.
The lazy know-nothing execs were just trying to repeat the Wenger miracle Dein achieved ages ago....that fascination with all things Wenger is still what is killing this club.
