    Wenger was very widely loved and I felt a great warmth to his sense of humour and intelligence. I’ve not felt colder to an Arsenal manager than Enery ever. Not even Billy ****ing Wright and his posh spice wife. Not that I was old enough to really know him.

    When a new man has followed a manager that has been there for 22 years, at best, it's going to take a while to take to him. Bruce Rioch was a bit of a bellend but how much of that was because he followed George Graham?

    Bruce Rioch added DB10 and Platt to our side.

    Dick dropped Ozil and Rambo.

    Widely loved, but not universally so. Hence the acrimony and bitterness levelled at him (such a legendary figure ought to have been utterly immune from all that; the fact that he wasn't is telling).

    Very well-liked and very well-disliked at the same time.

    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    I think if you went back to 2001 you would find an awful lot of the people now telling us how loved he was were not so fond of him then.

    I seem to recall an awful lot of Highbury at that time being of the opinion that he couldn't take us any farther, that we had too many foreign players etc etc.

    Some people just like hating the club they support for some reason
