they have been kissing his ass for the last 10 years when he has been absolutely horrible. no coach would last 8 years without a trophy in a "big" club like arsenal, and 10 years without any major trophy. (no, the FA and community shields arent major trophies). so you might hear some fans saying he needs to go, but the majority will continue to gobble up all the bullshit he says, and just like wenger will say "next year will be our year" for the 11th year in a row.

I don't think you understand how the board work at Arsenal. To them, finishing 4th, a place in Champions League is enough because that alone brings in the money.

Say what you want about Wenger, he's not lost his job and that's because he's bloody good at it. He's consistantly got into the last 16 of Europes clubs for the 13 years.

And the FA cup is a major trophy.

yes, he is good at it. because his job is apperantly to achieve mediocre results, at best case scenario. the board at arsenal are just as bad Wenger, because they only care about profits by reaching the Champions League. only to get knocked out at the first knock out stage. 

he isnt bloody good at being a successfull manager, he is bloody good at failing at it. 

not to the big clubs it isnt.
