Match Reaction v Man Utd

[Niall_Quinn]

In the end you can defend Wenger all you want and lobby for him to have the job for ever, but hardly anyone agrees with you any more. Contrary to your endless defence of the guy, if we examine the evidence impartially, he should have been sacked at the end of last season.

Again, I've said repeatedly that Wenger should have been sacked for the end of last season. You keep on ignoring that.

Yes, I am a generally optimistic person although certainly not mindlessly - I won't name names but if you look at that thread there are people who see things far more rosy then I do.

All I've said is that there are reasons for deep concern right now but the Udinese game gave me some home and 3 games does not a season make. As for Liverpool, on 16th January their results to that point in the league were:

P22 W7 D5 L10. They were 13th, 4 points off the relegation zone. They ended up 6th. That was over half way into the season and they finished strongly. To predict the outcome of a season with any certainty after 3 games is lunacy.

I don't recall Liverpool conceding 8 goals though.

That result alone is enough to sack him, for a top club to concede 8 goals is unheard of and hasn't happened to us since 1896.

Recent Wenger teams seem prone to getting a thrashing or two, not really acceptable.

Liverpool is not a good example, they were managed by an incompetent loon during that period whereas we have Wenger.

I'm just saying you can't write off a season after 3 games.
It's obviously true.


That said there are some big concerns right now and if we don't sign some big players in the next 2 days, and it's starting to look like we might not, then we're going to struggle this year. Not relegation struggle, but the squad is seriously lacking quality right now.

So's your face.

Wenger out.

Typical English reaction, sign some players and that will be the answer.

Yesterday was a tipping point.
