He wanted Wenger out. Not about him. Ultimately we will continue to fall behind City, Chelsea (because of their investment at board level), United (because of their staggering revenue streams) and maybe even Liverpool if we fail to get top 4 this season.Quote:

Not sure what to think about this. Wenger only recognised the issues in midfield too late to do anything about it?
I found this bit staggering, and to then do nothing.Quote:

If this is the case and from what Ornstein said, it may not have been Wenger that brought this to the fore. "Internal concern" doesn't exactly suggest that Wenger has it all under control :-(Quote:

It seems Arsene told Ox to go f uck himself, decision to mug Perez off was taking while flying over India and we were close to signing Kante but pulled out of the move because the agent wanted a bigger cut.
Excellent stuff, T. Fascinating.Quote:
