Arsène Wenger: Same Old Class

We were never ever getting Pep. In their recruiting pitch, Arsenal would have presented their history of winning and tradition and maybe brought out Thierry Henry.
Man City would have put up one slide with a dollar sign on it.
We lose.

Pep Is Bald
You are ignoring the fact that City's heirarchy built a platform for years before he came to us, to ensure he was as comfortable as he could be when he arrived, and that everything was in place for him to do well.
Soriano and Begiristain already at the club too, both of whom he worked with at Barca. It's not just about his salary, unlike with Wenger.
I'd honestly be very interested to see how he'd do there.

My $ comment wasnt just about Pep's salary. Man City has spent more on players in the last 21 months than we have spent in the last 21 years. That's an actual fact I read somewhere.
Money doesn't automatically give you a title, but it certainly ups your odds greatly. We may win a title in any given season, but over the next ten years, unless the sheikh goes bankrupt, we have zero chance of winning more titles than city, regardless of whether wenger stays or goes, or the board stays or goes. We can only be saved by another sheikh (or russian oligarch, or other rich guy who only cares about winning).

If Wenger continues to manage in England after Arsenal then the respect he has in my eyes would go down a notch.
I understand that he has nothing in his life outside football and he wants to manage as long as possible but he will get enough jobs in France and maybe Italy as well.
He has made enough money and name for himself in England and as it stands he won't win the PL again, even if you gave him a combined squad of the best players from Citeh, Liverpool and Sp**s. Football has moved on and Wenger’s time as a top class manager is long over. Managing a club in England after Arsenal would be simply spiteful. If he already doesn’t, then taking up a managerial job in the PL would surely make him look like a bitter old man. There is no reason for Wenger to keep coaching in England other than vindictiveness.
We can't have our cake and eat it. We have the right to try and force Wenger out of the club but Wenger can go where he wants afterwards (provided it's not to a direct rival of course). Even if people might joke otherwise, Everton is a level below us and I have no problem with Wenger trying his hand at managing them.
If I could choose for him though, I'd make him the national team manager for France. I reckon that would be a great fit for him.

Why not? If Wenger can go anywhere then why not to a direct rival? It is another thing that Wenger isn’t good enough for any of our “direct rivals” anymore but if Wenger can go anywhere then he sure as hell can go to Sp**s/United/Chelsea.
He will complete 69 this year, I think he is too old for the French NT job. However, he could go back to his origins and manage RC Strasbourg. Right now Strasbourg are just three points above relegation playoff position in the Ligue 1. It would be some achievement on Wenger’s part if he could take them from there into the top five in France.
They can have with my good wishes. Much rather he go to Man City and we get Pep, Ofcourse, that would be a beautiful dream.

The problem for me with wenger is yes he has done great things ie invincebles , and a few league trophies, fa cups , Emirates etc. But in reality he’s done more bad than good. How longs he been here ? 22 years. All the success came in his first 8 seasons. That means 14 years of nothing odd fa cup aside. And those odd fa cups are wiped away with some horrific results . League cup to Birmingham. The Bayern scores and the 8-2 I think to United ,those 2008-12 were brutal years and when I look back with real honesty Arsène inherited the best backline in Britain when he took over and never replaced them. Sure he had Campbell and Cole Lauren all brilliant. But look at them since, not one worldie defender bought. Just my opinion folks been a fan since 97

Can't believe how petty some of you guys are. If Wenger wants to manage Everton then good for him, we should all cheer and support him there. Maybe he'll win the league for them. Wenger is not Arsenal FC, no reason why he can't make his own career after us. Similarly no reason why we can't be successful after Wenger too. We need to make a clean break from Wenger and move on from him, he needs to move on from us too.

And a new 3 year contract with that would be perfect. No?
