Why don’t the Arsenal Board do something about Wenger?

Who is the boss at Arsenal Football Club? by KM

Another day has passed and i still fail to accept the fact we are beaten by average teams missing their best players. I just wish we had someone on the board who could step up and make the right decision. Arsenal is going backwards because of its manager.

It is as simple as that. Wenger can talk about spirit all he wants but the reaction of the players on the pitch doesn’t feel like they have that spirit. I refuse to talk about the tactical disaster Wenger is because this is no longer the point.

Where is Ivan Gazidis ? Do you think Pellegrini will survive in Man City this season if they don’t win the title? He would be sacked without any hesitation when you are presented with some of the finest players in the league and with all the money you could wish for and fail to beat QPR.

Here at Arsenal it could be exactly the same. We have the financial figures and we have some top talent, but we don’t have the ambition. Fourth is the only ambition we have. Have you questioned yourself why Wenger doesn’t want to leave ?

Guess what, no other team would ever give him the power he has here. He is everything. He dictates the transfers, he makes the training, he even gets the credit for the stadium, like he has build it himself brick by brick. At big clubs like Madrid and Munich he’ll be doomed, because he’s tactically outdated and he will not change.

We started 3 seasons in a row with 1 fit striker, we don’t have a DM since Gilberto left, we don’t have a good keeper since Lehman. Some of those problems date back to 10 years ago. Giving Wenger another chance is something we should’ve stopped doing at least 5 years ago. He has lost it.

Why don’t we bring in a top assistant manager? The answer is it doesn’t matter cause he would have to be the yes man or the ignored man. Wenger will do it his way, because as long as the financial figures keep piling in silent Stans stash, Wenger will never be sacked.

There is one thing Wenger cannot win over though, and that’s the fans. Out of the shadows the AKBs will pop out like bats from a cave, when Wenger wins against a relegation side, with their all too known phrases like “Arsene knows best”, “what do you know about the club”, “we don’t have a penny in the bank” (yet we pay an old man 8 mills a year and pay 43 and 35 mills for players), and so on and so on.

While those people are still lurking around, some Arsenal fans start to realize that 10 years we’ve been more than patient for Wenger to deliver in “the right way”. We gave all our faith and love to players who either turned shit or betrayed us like rats for their little boys and girls inside and we suffered the price of the “right philosophy”.

Enough is enough, time for a change.
