Another Arsenal failure

When will the board have the balls to ask Arsene to step down? They are rapidly going the way of Liverpool and are now a sad 3rd best team in London (4th if you count Man U!)...

I totally agree. I have been a Gooner all my life but I now refuse to go the games. I love football and believe in a pay eithos but enough is enough.

If they get a CL spot the board will be happy.

What will be interesting is that both Gareth Bale and Jack Wilshire should be looking to play regularly in the Champions League at this stage in their careers. In my opinion only one of them will be next season.

I think Bale will move if Tottenham don't make it. Maybe Wilshire will tolerate a season without being in Europe but past that I'm not so sure. Shouldn't really blame him if he does want to progress with another club.

Jack Wilshere has recently signed a long-term contract so he's not going anywhere anytime soon.

The board won't sack Ars?ne Wenger because to do so would be to admit that their policies have been wrong for the past ten years. And no board would admit that...

At this rate they could miss Europe completely and that would hurt the directors in their pockets...they might act if it is costing THEM money...
I have always admired Arsenal's classy football but that is a rare sight these days. 2 cup defeats to lower league opposition is not acceptable at Emirates ticket prices.

That just means Arsenal can demand a higher fee.

It's the Arsenal board who should step down not Wenger. The board's failure to pay the players competitive wages (where do the profits go?) means the best players move on are replaced with rubbish like Santos and Gervinho.

The yank owner is a disaster for Arsenal. Get him out and get the Russian billionaire in.
