Call me optimistic but I genuinely think short of us winning either the PL or CL, he's gone at the end of the year. The fan sentiment has changed so much since before and they'll be open revolts in the stands if he's offered a new contract. I think Gazidis knows it and I think Wenger himself knows that. Don't forget he hesitated and waited till the right last moment to last one which was unusual for him. I know people on here have an emotional tendency to make him out to be some combination of Satan and Heather Mills but I do legitimately believe he doesn't like the abuse and doesn't want to spend another three years subjected to an ever increasing hostile atmosphere.

Only reason he's seems to be lingering around is:

A) He wants to keep up the record of never abandoning a contract
B) He wants to join the 20 years club
