Usmanov should not come out and say this....I believe a club should stick together in times like this....by that I mean the board should never come out against an active manager. Usmanov should do what he can behind the scenes and say what you want after he is gone. But he is just playing up to the fans with statements liek this
If it destabilises the board, then his comments are good, the only way to try and effect change is to speak up, and Usmanov is doing that. Considering that he has quite a bit of money tied up in the club, he has every right to voice his opinion.
It bring them together and reminds them of their common enemy....usmanov as he is a threat to all of them. Usmanov needs to play his hand smarter and for me as bad as we are doing right now....its way too early to talk now. We can qualify from the group and we are 2 points from 4th. we could be 4th by end of the week. Im just saying he shouldnt act like us fans and need to strike when wenger has actually failed as this season can somehow fail. I learned from last season when it looked we were gonna blow 4th, not only did we get it we won a trophy as well.
Usmanov remaining quiet is exactly what Wenger and the board need to weather the storm.
