    The argument doesn't change, just you guys are looking for holes in arguments instead of using logic.

    This is regular stuff that happens all the time. If you were unhappy about certain aspects of your job, but your boss practically begged you to stay and offered you more money, it would change things a little and you might actually consider staying for a year or two. Bottom line is we can't win anything if we're always reshuffling our team and it's an endless loop. That has got to make some sort of sense to guys?

    If we're talking about people bleeding red and white for club and showing love and loyalty, then I guess it is.

    The point of commanding similar elsewhere comes with much more risk, he wouldn't have the comfortable position he has now, they'd expect success so the situation would be completely different, I'm pretty sure he'd be out of a job after a couple seasons at those clubs willing to pay him a similar wage, that's not the case here at all.

    As for being happy to do it for no money, it's easy to say that when you're earning 7 million a year, I don't see him putting his money where his mouth is though, his salary continues to go up and I don't see him turning down those rises offered to him either.

    Wenger would never want for employment if he goes, he gets paid off and walks into something new.

    At least that is what Mark Hughes does - and will be doing again soon.

    Mark Hughes has got a job at a small club, he got a chance at City and they didn't take long to get rid of him. Wenger will have job offers of course, but failure to deliver success will soon see them being employed by lesser clubs. Big clubs want success not just pretty football.

    You're missing the point.

    wenger has sold out, make no mistake about that - but then again, who hasn't?

    he still has pride and wants to win and do well for the club but elsewhere he would not get the financial incentives he gets here on top of his impressive basic. he could probably earn a great basic at real or psg where he was offered jobs but he also knows he would not get the space, freedom and lack of questioning he gets at arsenal.
