Will Wenger Survive the Season?

Unfortunately, Arsenal worst season since a lot of time is completely logic and expected. It was obvious before the start of the season that Arsenal squad was subpar compared to the previous year and Wenger has done nothing to adress it.

He is a great coach, really, but the board should force good player on him.

who would replace him? Answer that first ffs.

Rafa apperently

Yeah... it's not going to be Rafa.

No way.

Lowe???

I think its all upto him imo.Either he himself calls it quits at Arsenal or continues on with some sort of Guarantees and assurances from the board especially concerning the transfer market.Maybe this is a bit of a knee-jerk post.

Anyways i think Arsenal will qualify for CL this season and Wenger would stay on.

Did you read the original topic prompt?

This isn't a "Milan just thumped them. Wenger should be sacked!!1!" post. This was meant to see if people thought Wenger would survive the difficulties he's experienced this season, including:
-potentially no Champions League (not top 4)
-potential further trophy drought
-poor performances against "rival" sides
-continued loss of key players
-failure to buy/failure to buy quality replacements

Furthermore, if Wenger is sacked, who might replace him?

Wenger is never going to be fired or forced out, and he's more or less earned that right. At the same token we aren't going to win jack sh1t in terms of titles with him in charge. Mediocrity has set in and you cant get rid of it unless the culture changes.

that's not really a good question for people who want Wenger fired. Those people want trophies, which Wenger cant deliver. If some other semi-reputable manager comes in and doesn't deliver, it's fundamentally the same result. no trophies. philosophy and tradition is great, but it will only get you so far especially in today's football landscape.

I don't see any other manager in the world that can take over Arsenal and win the Premier league with the same players and resources.

As long as he's in CL football he stays.

The only thing that needs to change is his stubborness. He seriously needs to strengthen the team more. As in making big moves in the transfer market, and letting go the shit load of leeches we have currently in our ranks to free up the wage bill. I have no problem with him introducing young stars every now and then, but we really need instant quality right now.

If we win the FA Cup and get to 4th, I'd be happy as shit. If he focuses on the league there's the slight chance we'd go ahead of Spurs.

Knee-Jerk as in regarding Arsenal's top 4 chances and not Wenger's future..Sorry for sounding vague in my post.

Honestly i think bar United ,City and Spurs.Any of Pool ,Chelsea and Arsenal have a chance of qualifying for the Top 4.

Out of these Chelsea look very unconvincing and basically a toothless attack and havent able to hit the back of the net often and their defense looks shaky something where Liverpool and Arsenal have been good at in the PL this season comparitively.

Liverpool have been dissapointing at home and that is where they'll pay the price for not capitalizing in home games.

And Arsenal out of these three look the more convincing and more likely to earn that 4th place in my opinion.They're getting Wilshere back as well so that boosts their chances.

Now this is a knee-jerk post.Any of these three teams can turnaround their fortunes in one or two games and gain the momentum.Atm Arsenal look like the team for me.

To answer your original question ..Yes he will.

Problem is that wenger offers high wages for youngsters and offers high level first team experiece too.

Only half of the so called youngsters will make it ,half of them are dead wood and end up as a liability.

No teams want those dead wood players on high wage and all teams want the cream of the crop.

And then we have some douche players like fabregas and Nasri who used Arsenal as a stepping stone.Clearly Arsenals philosophy is no longer good enough to win titles.

Crap players dont want to leave and WC players want to leave for better teams.
