utter bollocks. how is not winning a trophy in one season more pressure then knowing you have to deliever top four pretty much every year for 8 years or the club struggles massively financially. thats pressure.
Being told you have no money, will have to sell your players before you can buy, must finish top four every year is much more pressure then spending hundreds of millions on whoever you want and winning a trophy, especially in a league as crap as la liga
Utter bollocks....really? Madrid jobs is one of the biggest jobs in football, if you don't win the league and/or CL you're out on your ear, if you don't think that's pressure you're utterly deluded, at Arsenal there's f*ck all pressure from the board, that's the problem.
Wenger likes it the way it is at Arsenal, it suits him and his philosophy, if he could spend on nobodies and bring through kids he'd do it, thing is the fans won't accept that now.
Give it up. they live in a make believe world where keeping Arsenal in the top 4 with the highest tickets in the whole of football. With the 5th highest turn over, where you cant pay the debt back faster than a certain amount each year is the highest pressure in sports. If im not wrong Wengers salary is about half or a 3rd of the value of the stadium repayments. If he would stop frittering money away on dross and perennially disabled players, wed probably have an extra 30m in the kitty each year. Our wage bill is 50% higher than the Spuds for 1 point difference most years.
He spells out the reality well which is why the pram base doesn't want to hear it.

Pretty much.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Struggling to finish 4th each season when he has had significant funds available?
How he fielded an unproven 20 year old from Ligue 2 against Bayern Munich?
How each season the team collapses?
How his record against top teams over the last 5 seasons is played 15, won 1 and lost like 13 ?
How his tactics never seem to work?
This reality?
It's not reality, it's making excuses the spankings we've taken this season are unacceptable, one of the guys on the videos said the whole club should be embarrassed and we should, how often do other big clubs get spanked like this?
If analyse Wenger transfers in the last 10 years and what you see is a man who signs players because he thinks they have potential them not because the team needs them, that's why 3/4 of our squads are CM.
This guy has excuses after every single game, I stopped believing we could realistically win the title when Liverpool spanked up back in February (I was shocked people genuinely believed we could still win it after that drubbing last Saturday you just don't recover and win titles after beatings like that at this stage of the season), teams going for the title just don't get spanked like that, especially come crunch time. It was all very predictable though, once you looked at our run from the Liverpool game onwards you could see what was going to happen, because the same thing has happened time and time again for going on 9 years now, the money doesn't matter because ultimately we've got a manager who can't inspire players and signs players with no real desire to succeed.
If you let Wenger spend the money we supposedly have he'll just waste in on players we don't need who can pass 5 yards and link up with everyone under the sun, he also play them out of position, it's a waste of time giving him money to spend to build a successful side, he doesn't have it in him anymore.
I simply have no belief or trust in this guy anymore, he never delivers on what he says, I think it was 3 years ago he said this was the season the team had to finally deliver, they failed and he just ignore his words just like he always does.

If you want to criticize Wenger then there's plenty of ammo right now.
You don't have to make up stuff...
When did you start believing it? At the start of the season I certainly didn't think we were genuine contenders so I wouldn't use that as the benchmark for success this season.
