Arsenal fans became frustrated when he kept trying to bring players in and turning them into superstars instead of using the money available to buy the superstar. Wenger wanted to prove himself to the world and fans saw this as putting his own interests before that of the club. That and him not brining in leaders to replace the likes of adams and Vieira slowly led to Arsenal losing their grip on top 2 which became top 4 and now top 6. The fact that winning an FA Cup last season didnt resinate with the fans shows just how important the premier league is.

Do i wish him well? Not really. Do i thank him for what he brought to the table in the past? Most certainly.


Had he left while still a football manager I would have agreed with you. But he became an embittered, spiteful, pontificating little prick while helping his club’s owners pocket hundreds of millions, and maybe a few bob himself, from gullible fans and providing shit value for money, so he can fuck off.

As for his comments about Sterling, see Monreal’s atrociously bad dive at Wembley.

Which is incidentally more than Wenger fucking did.

Never had a good word to say about us and a serial sore loser who chose not so see his own team's faults while manufacturing 'faults' in City's team. I'm just sorry he's not there to weigh their club down next season.

It's all too easy to be critical and pick out someones faults. No doubt he made mistakes and didnt endear himself to all and sundry, but equally no doubt he brought something to the game we'd not previously seen from a level of success and entertainment. If arsenal werent around the rags would have been more dominant.

Say what you want, but overall i'm glad he came to our game. We can pick out the things in isolation that pissed us off but there is a bigger picture IF you want to see it. The tributes from the pro's in the game says it all.

There were tens of thousands of Arsenal fans staying away from games in a bid to oust Wenger. It worked. The crowd returned against West Ham following the announcement but even then he didn't get much of a reception. Its not surprising that other fans have no time for Wenger if his own fans don't.

Very thoughtful post, I agree. Great points.

One thing he never managed to solve was that his players got constantly injured. He must have realized that his training methods had to change if his players got injured regularly. That probably cost Arsenal a few serious bids on the title.

Slightly surprised there's no Europa League thread tonight. It feels like one of Aesop's fables about 3 pigs.

Arsenal are huffing and puffing but however hard they try Atletico look very comfortable.

Brought a great style of play to the Premiership early on, but he’s always been insufferable.
