it's become commonplace for people to use extreme language on social media - most of them, most of the time, don't really mean what they say or write - unfortunately there are a few who get carried away

I hope Wenger realises this and keeps his head down

Pretty sure most of them mean what they say , just most wouldn't in a face to face situation .

Nah. More fundamental difference.

The AKB looks at his wife and thinks, she's getting older but she's given me two beautiful kids and always been there for me . . . and then he notices the smile in her eyes.

The WOB becomes obsessed about shagging his young secretary and then convinces himself and his friends that his wife deserves it.
That's another terrible analogy! :lol: You did manage to get across how evil you think it is to want Wenger gone, though.

Following on from yesterday the Wenger PR machine that is John Cross is running a story about Wenger's summer targets, which includes names like Reus, Mbappe, Lacazette, Dembele. Arsène will be given in excess of £100m to rebuild the squad. Jeremy Wilson is also running the same story. The PR department has gone into overdrive.

The article suggests we're resigned to losing Özil and Alexis, hardly excellent PR that. o_O

Kroenke and his family are here until they get bored. It's just something we have to live with.
Truth. And tbh i could live with that for now if Wenger was to walk and we actually get a competent manager, because being honest Wenger has had money to spend recently. He just hasn't used it very well. And he's tactically clueless aswell. But he's not going anywhere anyway so the nightmare continues.

The fall out between Wenger and Sanchez shouldn't be surprise. I have always felt that Wenger surrounds himself with a bunch of yes - men and falls out with anyone with a strong personality. The links below seem to prove my point.

I will try and list down all the major fall outs. I seem to recall Wenger falling out with Viera because Viera advised Ashley Cole to ask for an extra £5000 a week in wages. Viera was swiftly sold on.

A few years after that Wenger fell out with Sol Campbell. I don't know why but my hunch is that Cambpell may have voiced an opinion. We know what happened to Sol after that.

We know Thiery Henry was competitive. He must have voiced his opinion about the quality or lack of quality in some players. By the way in 2005/6 season Thiery did say that Fabrigas does not suit the 4 - 4 - 2 formation. We know what happened to Thiery. A player of his quality sold on the cheap.

Gilberto Silva refused to convert to central mid and Wenger quickly got rid of him. There was Gallas of course, strong winning mentality. I recall how he would take it to himself to fire up players.

Fabregas, even though he owed so much to Wenger and Arsenal quickly decided to move on. Nasri, moved on too. Arshavin came to Arsenal as a good and motivated player. It soon became apparent to him that the club lacked ambition. He went on to play with no motivation as well.

Basically all the winners and good players quickly move on. Wenger is then left with the not so good ones who owe a lot to Wenger. So they can't argue or voice their opinions. He pays those players well too. How on earth has the club not realised that Theo, Ramsey, Giroud don't have the technique required to play at the top level. How many opportunities to get rid of these players have they missed? Ok these guys are good in some things, but hey Giroud can't even run 20m with the ball. Theo can't even manage 20 passes in 90 minutes against a week side let alone a strong one. Ramsey's first touch reminds me of Bedtner and yet he is a central mid fielder. I could add Coquelin, Welback to that list.

Always Crying
The team above everybody, every play above every player, discrete roles at the service of not the units but the union, great determination and self-sacrifices on defense, an attempt for an offensive passing-game that just flows.
Elements I want to see at Arsenal again, but I do not believe, that Wenger is the man, who can return it and it's frustrating as hell to hear talks about new deal.
