Wenger To Sign New Contract with Gunners!

Bad start for Arsenal - and a ball has not been kicked in anger. Danny Welbeck, who was in the starting line-up, has been injured in the warm-up and Olivier Giroud, originally named as a substitute, takes his place in the side.

You couldn't make this up!

 

Walcott #bottledit

 

You suffer from delusions of grandeur The reason that Arsenal fans are demanding more from the club, is because we expect to be challenging for the title and CL, not because Spurs have closed the points gap.

 

Giroud #bottledit so we missed him celebrating his own goal like it's the best ever despite his team losing

 

Talk is cheap. I'll believe it when I see it.

I have never argued that!

I have only ever pointed to your wages bill, which has, until recently, enabled you to attract and keep good talent.

I'm only repeating what is widely reported, especially by your own fans!

The general perception appears to be that your key owners use Arsenal as security to shore up their other investments, and are, thereby, extremely unwilling to use key capital to invest in the club on anything other than a superficial scale.

Wenger has been superb for your board, because he has been able to generate huge returns for the board without them having to invest the kinds of sums invested by teams that go out to win titles, such as Chelsea and City.

I'm sorry, but that's bollocks, and you know it!

No manager is going to turn down the opportunity to invest in the best players that he can get his hands on.

My belief is that Wenger tows the party line and perpetrates the lie that your board makes significant funds available to the manager. Wenger has been supremely loyal to your board, and have covered their stingy arses for over a decade, now.

10 out 10 for your rose-tinted optimism, mate.

No, it's a statistical fact.

Sorry that you don't like to hear it, but I'm not wearing the same glasses as you, Pix.

Arsenal 1 - 0 Bayern
(Walnut)


This is a good start from Arsenal.

I'm betting that Bayern had planned to take things easy tonight. They could well continue to take it easy, and only start to wake up if it gets to 3-0.

 

Have you ever watched Arsenal before?

This is the glorious fightback once the tie is already dead

One more year for Wenger

 

That's a lot of waffle, but I have bookmarked your comment that it is 'statistical fact' that Arsenal will hire and fire several managers in quick succession after Wenger leaves.

 

"Hope springs eternal - and Emirates Stadium is suddenly alive with just a bit of hope."

they keep falling for it

 

If you want a comeback that has a chance watch Napoli

 

Book-mark all you like, Pix, but answer me these questions:-

1. What happened to 'Pool when Benitez left?
2. What happened to United when Fergie left?
3. What happened to City after Cuducini?
4. Was Pep seen as best manager in the World? What's happening to him, at the moment?
5. Was Klopp viewed as a World beater? What's happened to him?

What have you got to throw at me other than Conte? Answer: nothing much.

 

As you suggested, Wenger will be signing a new three contract after this!

 

Wishful thinking on your behalf. What has happened at other clubs doesn't mean it will happen at Arsenal. We'll see whether your comment that it is 'statistical fact' thatbit will comes back to haunt you

 

No, it isn't "wishful thinking" on my part.

I have pointed out to you exactly the basis on which my argument stands, and you are refusing to provide answers to prove me wrong.

I'm sorry you cannot accept it, but the stats show that it is more likely that Arsenal will falter post-Wenger than that they will improve.

It has nothing to do with me predicting anything.

 

Youve just said that it's 'statistical fact' that it will also happen at Arsenal

Like I said, we'll see whether this one comes back to haunt you too

 

Are you the scouse fan that goes missing when things don't go right? I guess being a Scouse you would know all about hopes fading away...

 

Oops, so close Arsenal

 

Napoli concede too
