And good luck!

There aren't many managers worldwide with a record as good as his and he deserves all the plaudits. He has certainly earned them.

    Agreed  jonray,    its  so  easy  to  forget  that  19  other  clubs  are  after  beating  his  side  twice  a  year,  every  year.  Occasionally  some  manage  it,  but  let's  wait  &  see  how  many  good  clubs  offer  him  'Sanctuary'  next  year -  personally  I  hope  he  gets  a  decent  club  or  finishes  totally.  I'd  hate  to  see  him  fighting  for  scraps  with  a  second  rate  outfit.

    Is the space in your question in the wrong place, Nellie?

    His 2004 (I think) team must be the best I've ever seen. 

    Good luck, Arsene, enjoy your retirement.

    But, who will replace you, at Arsenal? Dithering Dave? Pep, Avaslice....

    Could be interesting.......

    A win rate of 57.3% over 22 years. Not a bad track record for someone who was effectively "Sacked". If football is the "Beautiful game" the vast majority of Wenger's sides made a great contribution to enriching it. I am not an Arsenal supporter but when some of his teams were 'on fire' they  were virtually unplayable for spells of a match.                         How long will Arsenal's next manager last? - I wonder!

    The only thing that I can say against Arsene Wenger is that his ability to see every foul, offside (from the half way line) and every bad decision against Arsenal but not once admitting his or his team's errors was very annoying.

    However, what ungrateful supporters Arsenal and many other teams have when turning against a great servant to their clubs.

    Not many clubs have found a better manager after sacking the one they had.
