As soon as rich men realised that Wenger was very good at turning profit we began to die as a football club its as simple as that. Our decline began IMO when Ashley Cole was sold, don't get me wrong i would rather listen to his wife's albums than have him here but that was the start. Here was a boy who was truly home grown by Wenger and then sold for a big fee (and bloody Gallas) As soon as that happened little pound signs started appearing.

Since then we have seen young talent after young talent come to the club, get better and be sold and then replaced with...more young talent, all while making vast amounts of money for the board. Look now at the team, the Ox, Ramsey, Wilshere, Gibbs, Jenko its all a bit familiar, each time we look like losing a bit of revenue one of them will be sold. This isn't the managers fault and wont change unless 1) the board change tack 2) We get a footballing man in as director of football.

However

Are the players on the pitch being utilised in the best possible way? No absolutely not and that is why Wenger must go. The tactics are poor, the mental approach is shite, the motivation is irregular at best and the substitutions are just bizarre. Our game has become so predictable its almost embarrassing at times. Anyone who didn't expect Bolton to nick a later winner last night hasn't been watching Arsenal for the last 5 years. The concern i have is that Wenger does leave he will move upstairs which means nothing will change at all.

When we played Swansea i wondered what would happen if we swapped managers, who would be better off and i think we all know the answer to that. I cant really believe the media still use the bullshit stories about Real Madrid wanting Wenger? The sort of manager they need is a completely different beast to Wenger. People have spoken about Spurs passing us, the simple reason is that Levy and redknapp are considerably better than PHW and Wenger right now.
