In The Winchester, Waiting For This To Blow Over
Country: Northern Ireland
Player:Gabriel
The main mistake Arsène made, was he had complete faith in his players, maybe too much to be honest.
But that's what made him who he was, he loved giving players time to develop...I reckon he enjoyed that side of the game, even more than what he won as a manager.
We should have signed Given in 2008 after Jens left for example, but you take the rough with the smooth with your manager...and there were a hell of a lot more good times than bad with Wenger.
We had no right to win the league post 2006, tbh...so Arsène can't be faulted that much, imo.
