    I think we should have a new definitions thread. Item 1 - Define Middle Ground.

    I'm heartily sick of this question as it ignores all the names that have been put forward in the past and it is ignorant of the fact that there is a Chief Executive and Board in place who are richly rewarded and whose job it is to do more than shrug their shoulders when it is clear we need a new manager.

    Any name put forward is laughed off most of the time anyway.

    For me I would take a punt on Pep.

    I suppose not. Not since we've just been relegated from the Blue Square Premier and gone bust...

    And you wonder why these suggestions are laughed off?

    No thanks. He wont be at Barca for much longer anyway but would rather he didnt come here.

    Go for Hiddink. Won more in a few months at Chelsea than Wenger has in 6 years

    Wouldn't mind Hiddink.

    Again, another one I've seen laughed off in the past.

    People are stuck in a loveless marriage with Wenger and can't let go IMO.

    Its foolish to think that no one else can come in and do better than Wenger.

    Im not saying someone definitely will but its time we took a risk. We are going nowhere under Wenger. We may have to take one step back to take 2 forward. Just need some freshness back in this club and move away from the laughing stock position that we are in atm

    95% of my Arsenal supporting life has been under Wenger, I'm just as apprehensive as everyone about life without him, probably even more than I'm willing to let on. The facts speak for themselves though, the team has not moved forward at all and fans are still talking about issues that were being discussed 3 years ago. Things have gone very stale and I find it a bit of chore now to support the club, the enjoyment has been stripped away because the team has such obvious problems. I can accept not winning because no one wins everything, I struggle to deal with the manner and extent we've contrived to throw things away though. I'd love it if Wenger turned it around and proved everyone wrong, I don't believe he will and I guess that's where the disillusion stems from and why I'm open to a change.

    Some will dismiss any suggestions put forward as they as so pro Wenger they can't see life without him. Personally I've had enough, his BS and inability to develop this team in 6 years is enough for me to say he's not up to the job and that's it's high time someone else had a go.

    Just like his team he can't justify his salary to the fans, 6 million is a lot of money and we should be get more than we are getting for that, of course the board members will be happy as every season he's lining their pockets but frankly who gives a toss about them, it's clear they don't give a damn about the fans.

    It's important a manager keeps in touch with what the fans want and makes them feel like their important, he does the opposite and makes you feel like you just don't matter (unlike his pampered players).

    Changing manager may mean taking one step back before moving two forward but it's worth it IMO, what we get at the moment is as good as worthless.
