Afraid of that which you just acknowledged is eminently possible - that his successor will make us
worse.
He'll likely be gone in a few seasons anyway, so given that he's not exactly dragging us down into mid-table and won a trophy in his first season after we stopped being broke, I see absolutely no imperative to get rid of him now.
Is there not some logic to this? I refuse to believe you cannot see it.
he's in the Grove so further up the hill - so to speak
Do you realise how apathetic and complacent that reads ?
We're not goo enough to write our own scripts, and there is no shame in that.
It all went a bit wrong last night, but that's football, Clive.
Oh I strongly want us to improve and get closer to the big trophies
But I see absolutely no reason why a different manager would improve our chances of getting there. And as you acknowledge above, neither do you :shrug:
Yes far better not to be in it
The alternative could be that instead of going out to Barcelona, you defeat Dinamo Shitwankski
in the UEFA cup
After all, some teams who replace their manager often (appointing the flavour of the month from top European leagues) and also throw 100m+ cash on new players have struggled to get into the CL (Spurs, Liverpool)
Not saying that Wenger is faultless, but he is still the best man for the job imo
That aside. I used to enjoy watching the champions league but it's lost something
So basically a damp, squelchy walk away from the men's pond then
Damp and squelchy with water, obviously
Where's your sense of ambition m ?
We're one of the richest clubs in the world. This isn't 1982 when GG was scraping together a few quid to buy Perry Groves from Colchester..
I don't think after 18 years anyone can be accused of knee jerk extremisim either.
There's only one way for him and any other manager to keep their positions in a sporting arena and thats to show progress.
If he does that, then he'll get another contract.
He's lost it.. Just accept there are younger and more progressive managers out there who deserve to be given a chance..
