Simeone would be a perfect fit brother, he is at a club that routinely balance the books just like Arsenal and he has them sitting 2nd in La Liga above Real. He has achieved consistent success at a club that isn’t ever silly with its money and he has stayed a good few years now. If I was Arsenal, I’d be looking at that CV and making him a very serious offer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 44,332 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 On another note, I wonder if they will go down the Manchester United deluded supporters club route, get some journeyman big name and expect to win the earth first season out?........I reckon the owners have a bit more sense but football is a crazy world these days.

blackmaggie 3,375 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wenger has been a cracking coach for arsenal with a real eye for neutering young talent but like dy said maybe should of gone sooner I would like to see Simone there or even give dych from Burnley a chance or even that Eddie Howe another manager who's not spend millions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 14,558 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 I reckon Simone is a great call , none of the others are in reality big enough for a club of Arsenal’s size 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lanesra 3,961 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wenger was a great manager for the first 10yrs where he rivalled Fergie & at times surpassed him , something the fans will always treasure , but his stubbornness eventually was his undoing where a lot of fans are concerned , buying 2nd rate players / penny pinching to please the greedy yank and other board members + his bonus & massive wages , he sold our best players too our rivals helping them & hindering us , from watching Adams , Henry , Bergkamp , Campbell , Vieira , Pires ect ect too Squilachi , chamac , sendoros , Gervinio ect ect was soul destroying , I obviously hope we win the Europa cup and he goes out with a trophy but I'm glad he's going as it would only off got worse as where now fighting Burnley for 6th place miles off the top 4 , Simione for me but I doubt he fits the criteria for the board , I believe until Kronke is gone we will not break into the top 3 off City , United Liverpool / Chelsea / Spurs !!

Alex Ferguson's United achievements nearly never were. Hes a lot to thank Mark Robins for was it ? As do United fans. While I totally sympathise with the sentiment mate I have to agree with Stiff, keeping clubs just surviving on a shoe string like Burnley or West Ham does not qualify you manage a massive club like Arsenal. His record just don’t stand up to scrutiny, but I take the point about Sir Alex. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As Dellboy would say Bonjuior Arsene ? That’s a bit negative mate, the yids have sold good players like you have except they have a team that’s clicked and you have not. We won’t talk about city, not being funny but would I f**k want to be them, I’d rather be watching my team in the vanarama than have a team like that with 8 million Jonny Come Lately fans and success based purely on a cheque book. Real football lads see Arsenal as a much bigger and much more respected club than City. Do you f**k want to be them ! You are a grand old club and you will be back stronger than ever. Edited to add: You have a statue of Thierry Henry outside your ground......that will be THE Thierry Henry Who are them blue c**ts gonna stick outside their ground?.......f***ing Liam Gallagher?

THE STIFFMEISTER 14,558 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Got to say I always ever thought that you were only ever couple of players away from being a very good side again. If you’d bought Kante and vardy, you’d probably be looking at a different club altogether. Always wondered why they never fancied payet as well, thought he’d have fitted right in at arsenal tbh bit if a mixed bag really, great sides over the years , and definitely one of the real big three uk teams . I only ever have respect for arsenal, a proper big club with a huge support , I hope now they can kick in again and return to winning ways as I’d rather see the title won rather than bought 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lanesra 3,961 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wilf after creating "Great" teams for 10yrs he started creating average teams by buying average players , sometimes below average players & selling our Crown Jewels to rivals , RVP to United prime example which basically won them the PL , Imagine Fergies reaction if we'd of bid for say Rooney . . I know what his response would of been , Spurs sold there best players when their ambition out rivalled the clubs ambition & that's what Wenger eventually created . when at 1 stage he had the opportunity to rival any British club but he changed and created a club that was happy to settle for a top 4 finish which created the money for the owner & shareholders , as I've said his first 10 yrs was the best in the clubs history IMO . . The 1 episode where I totally lost faith in him was the Suarez episode £40,000, 000 & a £1 when for another £5 million he'd a got a player that would of upped our chances of competing & he blew it !the Wenger off old wouldn't off excepted that !! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
