Is everyone at Arsenal deluded?

Wenger thinks that Arsenal are the most successful club in the last 20 years. Kroenke is making sure Arsenal become a Euro elite. Dick Law is still a transfer negotiator. Our medical team is equipped with cutting-edge sports science, diet, and nutrition framework. Theo Walcott probably thinks he's the current version of CR7, with the goals he's poached.

Strange.

Probably made up story so we go into the last game of the season talking about this rather than planning a big end of season Wenger Out protest.

It's not made up at all.

It's perfectly timed by Usmanov but he's only testing the water to see how much backing he will get from this.

This is a pretty unpopular opinion but i'm not convinced anymore that Kroenke is the problem...

If we look at net spend in the last five years Arsenal is 3rd in EPL, in front of both Chelsea and Liverpool. £80 mil of that being spent after finishing 2nd in the league so i don't see Kroenke really blocking the success of this club apart from keeping Wenger as the manager. If we spend again this summer, and i feel like we will break £100 mil, i will be forced to shift the entirety of the blame on Wenger.

Inbefore "Chelsea had a better squad so they didn't have to spend money." That's beside the point. Based on our net spend we should have a better team and we should have more success both domestically and in the CL

Arsenal isn't his priority. We mean nothing to him. We are nothing but a nice little cash flow to him. If he cared about the club and actually wanted us to be elite he would be pumping in money left, right and centre and would of let Wenger go at the end of 2014.

Instead, we are in the worst place we've been in years yet Kroenke hasn't come out and said a word. When was the last time we even heard from him? Wenger is likely to sign an extension, given some more money, a few changes behind the scenes and that will be that.

With all Wenger faults, Kroenke has been the main source of the problem since day one.

We've already gone down the path of taking the moral high ground, and trying to be the odd one out, trying to be that special little family club that backs a manager for 21 years until they become old, senile and outdated. We've done that for long enough.

The results are dreadful. It's f**king shit and we all know it is. I want to win titles now.



Completely agree. It's time we caught up.

You are right, Wenger is the problem. But Kroenke being the owner should be putting pressure on Wenger to provide better results and he isn't.

So Kroenke needs to go too. We need an owner that puts the club and the fans - the lifeblood of ANY football club - first.
