The amazing thing is that it doesn't matter how much of a pile of shit the 1st half has been, he will send the exact same personnel out for the 2nd half, with the exact same 'tactics', and just hope it changes. Imagine being an opposition manager, and going in leading at HT against us. You'd expect a new team to emerge for the 2nd half, and instead you get the exact same as the 1st half, Which plays completely into your sides hands. Even the lesser managers must think Wenger is crazy.

Couldn't agree more with that and the standout game for me this season where it happened was away at Old Trafford where from the minute the second half kicked off there was an onslaught from United which put us under massive pressure and them taking the lead looked inevitable. I was sitting there screaming at him to do something to change the flow of the game and he sat there doing......NOTHING.

Mata finally got the goal in the 68th minute, a full 23 minutes into the half where he simply sat there staring into the abyss and look maybe the goal wouldn't have been prevented even if he had made changes but the fact is he didn't even try.....he never does.

The times of the subs that day - 73rd, 80th, 83rd minutes :roll:

Arsenal PLC ramping up the Wenger PR....must be getting the sheep ready for an announcement - hes not just built players but men

“You may say that we haven’t won the title for a long time, but he has not just built players, he’s built men too,” Koscielny told Arsenal Player.

I like kos as a defender, but I have to say that there is not one of those weak, bottling shower of w**kers that play for us, that I wouldn't get rid of in the morning if it meant getting shot of that senile French c.unt :evil: I mean what kind of bollox is that "he built men" line ?? Is that an old line from an army recruitment poster ? :?

It's a misquote. What he actually said was; “You may say that we haven’t won the title for a long time, but he has not just built players, he’s built rich men too.”

The spin machine has gone into overdrive for sure, in the last 10 days alone we've had Ozil, Mustafi, Giroud and now Kos all coming out with the pro Wenger rhetoric. The groundwork is being laid, the inevitable is now imminent lads :suicide:

it's that sort of pompous attitude that totally encapsulates wenger's view of football management. develop human beings first, win trophies second.

absolute fucking twaddle.

Wow, he has built men as well as a new stadium, all with his own bare hands. He is God! I expect when he does finally leave the first bad result under the new coach will result in a swarm of locusts engulfing the Emirates stadium, with Giroud and Walcott being told to build a big fucking boat!

I think we all knew the contract extension was extremely likely, but seeing it becoming more and more reality with all these squad endorsements is really depressing anyway. Makes me think the announcement could be in the next couple of weeks even.

Still, who else could possibly do the job...

Kos is a decent defender, but this new contract means he clearly isn't anything close to resembling a winner. Anyone who has been here 7 years, and seen the shitshow of results, and complete embarrassments in that time, and still signs up for another few years, must be an absolute loser as a footballer. I'm sure the AKB'S will be lining up to blow him for signing a new deal, but will scold winners like Sanchez, who don't see the point in hanging around for another few years of lies and false dawns under crackpot, and his statuesque buddy Bould.
