Poll Results: ‘Is Arsene Wenger a fool?’
As promised, the results to yesterday’s poll which had the topic ‘Is Arsene Wenger a fool?’ will now be revealed.
And it appears that a majority of the Arsenal faithful who voted share the opinion that the Arsenal boss is indeed a ‘foolish man’.
Below are the results from the poll.
Is Arsene Wenger a fool?
Yes – 65%
No – 35%
Had it been a decade before or just a couple of years back – when Arsenal fans were not as frustrated by the Frenchman as they are now – the ‘No’ option might have been the one to attract over half of the votes.
But indeed, times have changed, and after yesterday’s exit from the FA Cup, the desperation has changed too.
Gone are the days when fans would settle for ‘it will be better next year’. Maybe, just maybe, they are calling for a change. Whether in philosophy or personnel.
Damn Me and my friends missed that vote. It would of been higher if we voted!!
Show some respect, regardless of whether you think he is still the right person for the job.
is cuz u dont understand football or anything….. or might b tottenham or man utd fan pretending 2 b arsenal supporter…. making bad judgement year after year, playing half hearted players on the pitch, no sign of progression, no sign of ambition, how many times a team can loose its focus ? talkin of youth development , whts da point nurture em sell of 4 some1 else’s good? just take a pick …….. list still goes on ………

Respect for what????
Do you really have to ask? Then you ate the fool.
Respect for what???
You are sick in your mind. You need to be examined by a specialist. Why should you reduce yourself into hero worshiping someone even if he has lost direction? Does this man pay you to be his ” Yes man”. Please give him his money back and start helping this club to move foward if at all you love it.
I hope, he is a fool, . If not, the buying inerta, tactical incomprehension, round pegs!, ignoring of his youth policy failure etc. were delberate. If so, why?
anyone commanding £7 million a year doing a job he is unfit for is smart believe me
the fool is the one that pays for the most expensive tickets in the premiership
You should asked ‘I am a fool or Wenger?’ I am sure you would have WON hands down fool
Some snotty nosed teenager calling Wenger a fool! Who the hell do you think you are? I wan’t him to leave as I feel his time is up but show him some respect FFS. Why would you word a poll in such a demeaning way? You gimmicky twit.
100% agree, well said.
here here stonroy, bring back Dein, then we’ll see it sorted
Agree that a poll like that is disrepectful. If another manager comes in and gains success alot will be down to Wenger’s groundwork.
The issue is that most people don’t seem to believe Wenger can take us forward on the pitch
Wengers Groundwork…Are you on Drugs??
Wenger is a fool likewise the board members.They don’t hv passion for footbal nor the fans allover the world.They are all business men.They don’t need trophies but profit.What a fool they are.
Third most successful club in the history of english football fighting for fourth place,it just doesnt add up.
I think it’s we fans that are fools and we’ve established that overtime.we fail to realise that we are the back bone,tell me where the club will be without the fans they seem not to care exist for 7years!!!
All you so say Arsenal supporters why the big downer on AW after all he as done for the club,No we are unlightly to win a trophy again this year,
But can I remind you of the following
1) We have not had the resources of Man City/Man Utd/Chelsea over the last 7 years
2) We have a new stadium that most clubs would give their right arm for
3) We dont have the debts that many clubs through out Europe have
Just think yourself lucky that your not a Rangers or Portsmouth fan
remember their is only 3 trophies in England + Champions league so only 4 possible winners,Our friends up the road are doing well but the last trophy they won was 20 years ago so dont keep harping onabout another trophyless year
the last trophy they won was the carling cup…
bloody Wenger is a stubborn fool and he shows no respect to the fans so why show any to him? I hate him. he has severely affected my life for 5 years, and I have had to virtually stop supporting Arsenal to stop being so angry about him.
He’s not a fool, but he’s no longer good enough to manage Arsenal football team. It’s correct to say we cant compete with the financial clout of Man U, Man City and Chelsea but we can compete financially with Spurs and Newcastle and for my money they have bought better players than us and their managers have shown themselves to better than Wenger at motivating their players.
Bob hall,things have changed and you have to loose yourself from the board’s bondage.its such a dynamic world we live in now,you roll with time and be calculative.
Mr. Wenger is definitely not a fool, nor anybody’s fool. Tactically he is weak, but for any manager to keep a team of youthful players and challenging year on year at the top end of the Premiership, that is outstanding, ask all the Tottenham Managers during Wenger’s reign, the Everton Manager, the Fulham managers, the Liverpool Managers, Newcastle managers etc. In all honesty we should be at the bottom of the table fighting for survival year on year and players like Walcott deserves more credit than we give him.
In all honesty none of us truly knows what is going on behind close door at Arsenal FC. I do agree Arsenal needs only 4 quality players to give them a chance to compete with the top 3 teams, but why has Arsene not pursued that option??????
One day it will all come out I believe and many of us will forever zip our lips. Maybe Wenger sees great potential in some of his players, having seen then performed at the highest level against the best even Barcelona, but they are unable to maintain it week-on-week or remain consistent. Lack of confidence is a killer of talent!!!!!
What I have personally observed and tested, is that it is impossible to play the current system on all surfaces. Here is where Wenger has to go back to the drawing board and tweak his system a bit.
I say boycott all Arsenal matches until Kroenke leaves with Gazidis.
That is an absolutely rubbish idea!
There is a plan Arsenal [Board & Manager is working towards], this has not been made known to the fans, maybe in the same manner we let out gas on the teams weekly performances. We will spread it everywhere before the time.
I live with hope and do believe we will see another piece of the plan this summer.
He’s no fool. AW is still very capable but for the reasons mentioned above it has not been a level playing field. Also you cant blame AW for mercenary players that have joined and left us or decided never to join us in the first place. All for money.
AW is also the most unluckiest manager I know. Who else has had the same qty of injuries to contend with over the past few 5 years?
I hope he signs for another 3 years or more.
The guy is a legend so dont get on his case because we havent won anything. 15 years CL qualification is success in my eyes.
How can wengar be a fool for arsenal fans today ? Do not forget it is not civil to ridicule a legend . You guys do not get it , Blame the money sucking vampires on the board and stop scratching the surface of the gargantuan problem at emirates.
Don’t be an idiot!!
Why wouldn’t Wenger buy players,why are we linked to almost every player in the world & buy none.Spurs & liverpool,we are richer than them but,they buy quality players & know when to reinforce their squad.If the manager is feeling 2 big to buy,then we better get another manager that will &WHY IS OUR DEFENCE NOTHING 2 WRITE HOME ABOUT?!!
He’s no fool, thats a ridiculous word choice, but things have to change. I believe at the end of the season Wenger should move upstairs and we start a new era.
Lets be honest probably half of the first team squad should be nowhere near most clubs in the premiership. Yet here they are failing at the highest level. I quite honestly would go on a limb and say Squillaci, Djourou and Chamakh for sure and Rosicky lately wouldn’t get into a relegation team. When you add the fact we’ve had to put up with Ramsey and Walcott all year, and we’ve noone capable of playing in between the lines and feeding RVP…its a miracle 4th spot is even in the conversation.
This is Arsene’s team, a team where he gives Djourou a new contract, but allows Nasri’s to run to its last year before goin to City. He’s been completely hindered by the board upstairs pathological obsession with the bottom line. The fact more sucessful clubs than us are freezing ticket prices but our Kroenke increases ours 10% to watch a steadily declining product.
The whole Mata affair in the summer, where we had a fee agreed and Mata was on his way to the emirates to sign, yet for some reason the money wasn’t paid and he ends up in Chelsea, and we then spent the last day of the window panic buying for less quality. Either that showed the Arsenal board refused to back Wenger, or Arsene wouldn’t spend the money. I think its both, i believe alot of the funds we take from transfers goes into the stadium, and the cap limit on wages stops Arsense from competing at the quality end of the market.
However Wenger is stubborn to a disturbing extent. He coddles inferior players at a young age, quite happily plays them every week regardless of performance and when the shit inevitably hits the fan, there’s noone to stand up in the dressing room and galvanise the team, becuase most of the squad is made up of these types. It was the Denilson’s of this world and Bendtner, now its Djourou with the permanent wobegone expression. I quite honestly believe Fab would have stayed an extra year or two, if we showed even the slightest bit of ambition, and it will be similar with RVP. Its like groundhog day with Arsenal every year for 6 years. Each february we collapse, every summer we’re promised our youngsters will progress and we will be ambitious in the transfer market. Yet every year we lose a star player, every year we don’t replace him and every year most of the kids don’t develop. I truly believe RVP would be willing to stay if we show ambition, but he knows better than all of us, he’s wasting his worldclass talent surrounded by so much shit.
THINGS HAVE TO CHANGE
Wenger i̶̲̥̅§ Absolutely a fool. Because i wonder how. He wants the likes of AOC †Φ learn when there Is nobody to learn from. He should definately change his goddam principle iF he really want †Φ excel
How ****ing dare you call him a fool, you stupid bunch of fat f***ing c**ts? It’s one thing to criticize him, I guess I’ve had my own share of doing that, in the recent years, and especially now. But a ‘fool’? You ****ing spackers. Are you out of your mind? Before wenger we had qualified for europe for a total of 12 times in our entire history, this is wenger’s 15th time in a row. Before wenger, we had only had 4 or 5 consecutive finishes in the top 4, as in our longest run of consecutive finishes in the top 4 was 5 years. Wenger’s topped that, doubled that, and is still on his way. Criticize him all you want, want him to leave If you will, but a ‘fool’? Gimme a break you ****tards. Learn some respect you whiny twats. Bunch of ****ing glory hunting c**ts.
Glory hunters !!! Although i dont agree with some of the comments on hear, i also dont agree what what your saying. Wenger isnt a fool by any stretch of the imagination, but everyone has a limit to their ability and Wenger is at his. He can not take arsenal any further as he is prepared to move his morals and actions in to the modern game. I dont want arsenal to go out and over spend on player like chelsea did on torres. But if the right player pops up for 20-30 million then we need to buy. Under wenger this doesnt happen.
Yes,wenger z a BIG FOOL,due 2 his foolishnes,he keep repeating a mistake year after year,which resulted our trophyles.I GUES WENGER MUST SACK.
Arsene Wenger, for all his faults, has more intelligence in his little finger that everyone clicking on this disrespectful yes/no quiz combined….including the ingrate who posted it in the first place.
Why single out Mr Arsene Wenger alone ? Success and failure should be collective which is from the board , manager and players. When the team is successful, everybody wants a part of it but when the team fails, there goes the finger pointing. I believe a true fan of Arsenal will sink and swim with the team. Though I am not a Liverpool fan, I love their club motto which states ” You will never walk alone “.
Wenger’s time is up. I Respect what he has done at Arsenal and he will forever hold a place in Arsenal fans hearts. So before our beloved team sinks even deeper. Changes are need, and in my opinion i just don’t think Wenger is the man to command those changes.
