Yep, utter **** yesterday. It's not the first time we've dug a hole for ourselves in the 1st half either. We generally respond quite well and again yesterday we could have nicked a draw, but we shot ourselves in the foot again in the first half.
It really is time he retired mate. He's going to sully his legacy if he decides to hang around beyond this season.

His time is definitely coming to an end. But I've been consistent about this all along, he should only go if we've got a replacement who is at least as good, otherwise a change for the sake of change could be suicidal.

It might take you two or three managers to get it right.

You might have to accept that

Yes, that's a real possibly. We could also appoint somebody who could hit the ground running too though. (although there is usually at least a few months of transition whilst the new manager gets to know his players)

We're being strongly linked with Max Allegri, who has apparently got a verbal agreement with the club according to several media outlets, to replace Wenger if he leaves this summer. Arsenal apparently have been in negotiations with him since the end of last year. A smart move if true. Allegri is a winner and has won Siere A three times in the last few years, as well as doing the double.

Yes. Inherited a decent side though tbf.

With your resources, I think it is worth taking the jump now.

You may have transition like United but at least your season will be less predicatable
 
I am actually grieving as it goes, woke up to some terrible news.
But it certainly isn't about the dullard.

True. Allegri would be inheriting a decent squad though, albeit he'd surely want to add some of his own players. Also as you say, we've got the resources to go out and add one or two world class players. There might be a few though like Ramsey, Iwobi, Coquelin who would find themselves out of the team. The thing I like about Allegri is that he's a really good tactician and versatile with his formations, something Wenger is really rigid with.
 
For the sake of my sanity please **** off and go Mr Wenger.
Yes you were great.
You won't be great again.
Yes you won many trophies.
You won't win any more
Yes you discovered Henry, Anelka, etc.
You also bought utter ****.
Yes you got us in to CL 21 times.
You never won it.
Yes you got us Top 4 21 times.
You won't this year.
Arsene Wenger thanks for all the great memories, please just go.
 
Allegri is a winner...


You keep telling yourself that, Pix.

Every morning, when you get out of bed, go to the bathroom, look in the mirror and say, "Allegri is a winner!" seven times.

Who knows? He might just be a winner for Arsenal

The reason I call Allegri a winner, is because he's a winner. Siere A 3 times and the Italian double, all since 2011
See how that works ?
 
See you 'seggies' are blinded. I used to find the old HIAG amusing (at times), and think the new HIAG is boring as ****...

I'm sorry about that, mate.

Old HIAG has popped his head out of retirement to pass some comments to Pixie and his Gooner chums on Wenger and the future of Arsenal.

Enjoy!

It will only be for today. I no longer like wumming, as you know.
