Wenger gets Henry to quit his u-21 coaching role

[Özim]

The old saying that nobody is as big as the club doesn't apply to us. Clearly this is Arsene FC. Arsenal FC is just the brand name. He's driven away everyone bar Bould, and by the look of it Bould is allowed fuck all say in anything anyway. This old has-been needs to go and somebody in the boardroom needs to find their balls. Won't happen though. Instead they'll roll out the red carpet for another 3 years of miserly misery. Fuck the fans, fuck the football, just keep that cash pouring in.

He's definitely become bigger than the club, some fans can't imagine the club without him and don't want him to ever leave because we might implode and disappear. As you said he doesn't allow anyone else to have an opinion or say, or to question his very flawed methods, it's embarassing really.

He can't find any players better than what we have and yet he has time to go and enjoy himself at the Euros, do me a favour....

Why is Wenger a pundit then? If he's commenting on the French game, which he was, and Giroud plays shit then is he supposed to lie to avoid a conflict of interests? He should practise what he preaches first and then start laying down the law. It's true enough, none of them should be pundits. The conflict of interests is clear. And what sort of expertise is Wenger providing anyway? How to lose a title to Leicester? How to be shit in the CL? How to always leave a club short of the players it needs?

Exactly what I was about to post, the guy turns pundit whenever a tournament comes around.

He's a control freak, won't listen to another opinion, particularly one from a player he used to manage. It's a miracle Bould was even promoted but it's become increasingly clear he's nothing but a cone man. Boro Primorac is probably the only one with any say.

If Arteta is good enough to work with Guardiola then he is good enough for Wenger, or maybe he was too good and that's why he left.

One of my issues with Henry as a pundit is that he's too reserved in his criticism, particularly of Wenger who he clearly still has a lot of time for.

Bizarre line for Wenger to take then, particularly as mentioned he's so quick to earn a few extra bucks doing the French TV work.

On principle he's probably right, it really should be one or the other but the hypocrisy as has been pointed out already is outstanding.

The guy does punditry work for French TV regularly despite already being flushed with cash.

One of my biggest issues with Henry as a pundit is he's a shit pundit.

Of course, on the back of that we could argue that Wenger is right - that's why he does such a shit job for us

You seem to think the same of all pundits. I don't think Henry is sh*t at all, though I agree he's maybe not as critical of Wenger as he should be, very few former players are though and when they do have the guts to say something people on here ridicule them and defend Venga.

Yes I do. They are all scared lackies sitting on the fence, all part of the old boys club, fearful of putting themselves out there and actually offering an opinion rather than the same dull, boring analysis. Never wanting to offend any player or manager. Never offering an insight, just telling us what we've just seen on the pitch ourselves. Possibly Roy Keane is the only one I have any time for because he doesn't give a shit about anyone and all the others are too scared to pipe up and contradict him. We get Droning Hargreaves, Stupid Owen, Idiot Quinn, Parrot Carragher, Posing Henry, Miserable Murphy, Wooden Shearer, Retarded Savage, Bitter Souness, Creepy Lineker, Dumb James, Predictable McManaman, Vacant Redknapp - a bunch of hopeless numpties working on cliched loop, saying the same tepid shit every single week, scooping up easy paychecks.

To be fair the vast majority of pundits are shit. I like Neville and Murphy because I feel like I am learning more than what I am capable of working out myself just from watching. But that's pretty much it.

I liked Vialli during the euros because he called the Italian backline the inglorious basterds on live mid afternoon tv.

Yep, agree with you both.
