    Obviously the thing about an 'axis of evil' is nonsense, there's no 'conspiracy', but if you mean the billionaire-fuelled clubs then are you seriously suggesting their distortion and inflation of the transfer market and ability to build huge squads which make them immune to injuries are not a big factor in our failure to win trophies?

    It's possible that another manager would come in and do better but you're fooling yourself if you think someone else will come in and we'll sweep all before us. Whoever our manager is the billionaires will still be there and those clubs are incredibly difficult to compete with.
    In the era of the billionaire clubs haven't Wigan and Swansea win cups, or in their case it's just flukes. Wenger has had 9x4 opportunities to win a fluke trophy and flunked. The only nonsense is the alternative reality you and the Wengerites have created for yourselves. He isn't going to win anything in the next 15 years that is a certainty. Heck we can't even win the Emirates cup anymore

    Yes. Wigan won a cup and then went down.
    I've said numerous times that our failure to win any trophies at all is damning. But there's no doubt the billionaire-fuelled juggernauts make it harder than it used to be.
    Of course there will be exceptions but if you look at who won those 9x4 trophies you won't fine too many.

    they went down, what does that prove or how is it even relevant. Swansea are struggling. its obvious that the reason they struggle is playing in Europe. Sunderland will be in the Europa next season, they may go down this season.

    All it proves is that you dont need money to win a cup. You can however be lucky. Wengers teams are neither good enough or lucky enough. Another 10 years from now, it will not have changed. IMO

    Hasn't been too bad this year.

    We can certainly build on these foundations.

    Pissed off we didn't get a striker in January, but then again, it's pointless wasting 20mil + on someone who isn't what you really wanted.

    Seems obvious we went all out for Suarez, and got fucked over, but that's footy for you, and I don't blame Wenger for holding onto the cash if he couldn't get the man he wanted.

    I've come to the conclusion that the same frustrations will always prevelent with AW, as he's a stubborn old cunt. But he's our stubborn old cunt, and I still think he's one of the best managers out there, and until someone can come up with a better choice of coach, who isn't reliant on mega money to put himself on "the best" list, we'd be stupid to get rid.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    It's official. We've gone off the rails.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    That's about the size of it.

    Although I would also say finishing 4th and winning the FA cup was a successful season but finishing any lower than that is rather split.

    I'd be delighted with a cup win and 3rd. 4th would be a little disappointing because it means Liverpool would be above us. At least if we're 3rd we have the consolation prize of being the best of the rest, presuming the moneybags finish top 2.

    I agree if we achieve both of these, i would be more than happy for AW to sign a new contract

    What's the odds on Wenger fielding a very weak team for the FA Cup but full strength in the Champions League? Was just reading Le Grove and he suggested this is what Wenger might do when looking into his recent press comments.
