According to Wenger himself.

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.
He's also 30 years of age. So definitely not a hot prospect for the future. More of a steaming hot turd really. Here's my desperate theory.
The club is getting rid of Wenger. Soon. We know the defence is a shambles, so Evans is being brought in as an experienced stopgap until a new manager can come in and sign a defender who isn't a cunty lump of shit.
Two tiny flaws in my otherwise rock solid reasoning.
We were in for him last window too.
We're supposedly paying 25 mill for the cunt. Ouch! That'll be around 10 mill more than we get for Alexis. We're good at this, aren't we?
All in all though, I'd see this signing as the end of Wenger. Obviously there's no long or even mid term footballing reason for a club like Arsenal to sign Jonny Evans. Not unless we are trying to consolidate our status as second rate. So it has to be a move against Wenger.
It could also be the club letting him sign more of his shit so they can say, "see, see, the guy has gone crazy", when they sack him.
Okay, I give up. Somebody please give me a rational explanation as to why we'd event contemplate signing this cunt.

There's always the hope we'll fuck up the deal, as usual.

So the guy starts on Feb 1st, and is working on Jan 7th? Indeed, slightly unusual.

Meanwhile Soton don't want to pay 25 mill for Theo.
In this crazy market Wenger has managed to nurture talent that can't even fetch a fee to match a clapped out Jonny Evans.
And for the players we could have got decent money for - he's let their contracts run down
What an arse.

Dunno but he's a defender and not a footballer. It'll be a disaster probably but that's what we already have.
We know BFG is moving on so so we need some poor sap to sit on the bench.
He's bog standard, so he'll be a better defender than what we have. Like Chambers and Holding, who had a clue how to defend upon arrival. And then we've seen what Wenger has done to them. Turned them into wrecks by chucking them randomly into haphazard systems and in behind a midfield that doesn't defend. So maybe this guy has enough experience to at least remain bog standard and not fall foul of Wenger's nonsense. He'd be the first since Campbell. Which then leads to the question, can't we find some other clapped out, bog standard but experienced defender for less that 25 mill? Maybe not in this market. What's Silvestre up to these days?
We know why the gypos would be interested. Money to burn and anticipating that, "Oh shit, all our main defensive options are injured", moment. But for us 25 mill eats into a limited budget and he's far more likely to be starting. It says everything about where we are now as a club. Second rate. This is just another guy a new manager will have to offload when he arrives. If he arrives.
How long can this go on I wonder?

Rumours we're interested in David Louise too on loan which I'd much prefer.
We need leaders and big characters in the team that can take the initiative and manage in-game themselves like Vieira, Bergkamp, Sol etc, players that don't need constant guidance from the manager and can change tactics/strategy themselves during the game because relying on Wenger to guide them won't work as he doesn't do that. He sits back and allows the players to do things themselves and the problem is our players are not leaders so sit back and wait for the manager, so we're in a state of vacuum
The problem is there's not many players like that around anymore, most need an arm round their shoulder and told what to do like a child, and if there are then they are expensive.
And Jonny Evans is not that type of player. He would be a disaster under Wenger. He would be all over the place positionally, flimsy and constantly run ragged.
We need a big character to lead. More of a VVD type of player.
