RIP Ronnie  Moran, a true football man, who represented our rivals at all levels over a fifty year period.

Watch out for the duct tape armbands at Liverpool's next match.

Robbie has posted this on Arsenal TV. Can't see Wenger following his suggestions. As Zeta has written: two more years of Arsenal TV.

 

Setting up a properly organised transition for the departure of someone who has been at a club for so long and is so influential in its operations may not be the worst idea in the world. The day-to-day running of Arsenal is going to change almost unimaginably when Wenger leaves - having two years in which to implement that change isn't ludicrous, it's sensible planning.

Knowing Arsenal fans, most of them will jump on the Wenger bandwagon again if he signs a few players, then win 3-4 games at the start of the next season. They were signing ' we got Ozil' after they beat us, and 'we are going to win the Champions league' after beating them unknown team in the group stage.

Isn't Wenger's raison d'etre simply to qualify Arsenal for the CL every year? If he fails to do that, then what is it?

The only other reason one would bother offering him a 2 year contract at this point is to try and transition on from him in an orderly manner. I suppose bundling him out the door overnight won't automatically rid the club of his influence, plus it would potentially be much more destabilising than transitioning him out.

I don't think 2 years is enough, i think 5 years is perfect. He deserves it, they deserve him, perfect.

 

But I must say that Wenger's behaviour is really arrogant. Can't he do their fans the courtesy of an explanation or an apology or something about future directions? Just like a politician.

Arrogant doesn't even cover it. As a Chelsea fan i'm more than happy for him to stay at Arsenal but if this was happening to us i would be really starting to resent him despite the success he gave us early on.

Haha that's a new one! Spring came early this year, immediately after the 1st leg result.

Climate change. Perhaps now Trump will believe it exists :smile:
