Didn't everyone think the same about Arsene Wenger?

He was sacked after years of mediocrity, not a bad run or even a season.

Years of mediocrity, falling out with sections of the fans for extended periods of time, poor transfers, lack of CL, stagnating methods and staff appointments, couldn’t win a game away from home…it was time to go sadly.

Yeah, you really went forward when you sacked him.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Did I say we went forward or did I just list some of the reasons why he left (because he wasn’t sacked).

Didn't he just retire. I won't know for sure. I'd rather call it retirement ?

He went on to work for FIFA on football policies, but as far as coaching is concerned he’s basically retired (not officially but he’s 73 and seems to be enjoying his life so I think coming back out to coach isn’t on his agenda).
