He deserves recognition for the Invincibles season IMO as I don’t think we’ll ever see that repeated.

But 3 titles in 21 years? Hardly Fergie levels is it?

At this point his league record is abysmal.

He's going to finish with 3 titles in 22 years and none in the last 15.

And that's if he actually leaves at the end of his contract; it could get worse, 'cause it sure isn't getting better.

If he leaves after 22 years

In the 22 years before he joined we also won it 3 times, and several managers were rightly sacked for not doing better in that time period

1996 to now..... 21/22 years and it's all on him

Knowing Wenger he’ll probably get his own statue made and put it up himself :hail: :dizzy:

He's already got the top half. Now we just need to find him some legs.

:grin:

Or better yet, put up two statues side-by-side. One dignified one that symbolizes the first half of his tenure and a second half-felled (or less dignified) one to represent the second half of his tenure. You could even put engravings on both statues for those fans who won't get the reference
