the sad part of his move is – the board expected wenger to compete when they had better resources but we were so far behind Chelsea, city and United it needed a large cash injection not just adding players like ozil and sanchez.

gazidis couldnt get Stan kroenke to do that . he made moves for wenger to be removed but the whole board and gazidis owe wenger – if it wasn’t for the top four finishes and agreeing to sell the likes of fabregas, rvp , nasri etc along side- arsenal would have been in a far worse situation . funny when most of the players left they didn’t have anything bad to say about wenger but the board and that they had no ambition

I should be happy he is leaving an but he is going to join a team who I have also supported – Milan. he hasn’t got the capability to make Milan into the team they once were. they are so far behind juventus, if he is there to make the board money then he can possibly do that but will need a good manager to assure champions league finishes and to sell best players

Wenger was an ace politician who grew to control everything right down to appointing a new tea lady. Arsene likes it this way, Arsene likes it that way. Meanwhile the weak UK Board took several years to lose their adoration for Wenger after his 1st decade of success. In the end it was the fans who broke Wenger’s grip. When Gazidis eventually had room to manoeuvre he DID make the changes most of us had known were so essential. Prior to that I have little doubt that Wenger would be on trans Atlantic phone calls to Silent Stan.
