It's a good day for most Arsenal fans. The toxic Wenger haters seem like a majority because of their loud presence on the internet and on things such as Arsenal TV, but most fans are reasonable and intelligent enough to know that sacking one of the greatest managers in history just days after he won a third FA Cup in four years and with no successor or succession plan in place would have been a disaster for the club. But often fans let the negative emotions that have built up inside them overtake any common sense they may have.
Arséne Wenger is the manager of this club. He will be the manager of this club for at least the next two seasons. He isn't getting sacked. He wouldn't have been sacked by either Usmanov or anybody else who bought the club (Piers Morgan doesn't have that kind of money). So the proper and sensible thing to do is to let it go. Stop acting like Piers Morgan and get behind the manager, the squad and the club. Hell, even Piers claims he's going to shut up about it (not that I believe him).
To quote Rodney King: "People, I just want to say, can we all get along? Can we get along? ... I don't see how you can grow as a world without being able to get along with people. So many people is hating out there and it's not making a difference."
It wouldn't have been a sacking. That's the beauty of it. All the board had to do was thank him for his years of service and not offer him a new contract. Wenger could have left the club on a high but now that opportunity is gone and I can only see things getting worse at the club over the next two years.
