Why Arsenal Might Sack Arsene Wenger

Mirza KovacevicDec 24, 2008

Surely no one is untouchable when it comes to being a manager. However, being the most successful manager in the history of a football club has to have some kind of stature in the board of directors, right?

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has been at the helm of the North Londoners since 1996 and has since won a total of 11 trophies. However, silverware has never been lifted at the Emirates Stadium which has been erect since the '06-'07 season.

The last trophy that Arsenal won was in 2005 when they defeated rivals Manchester United in a penalty shoot-out to claim the FA Cup that year. Since then it has been a drought and for such a titanic club as Arsenal, it's almost criminal, is it not?

When you're a club such as Arsenal, silverware is expected by the fans almost every year but that has not been the case these last few years in the northern part of London. The patience of the club's fans is starting to grow a little thin and although blaming only one person is a little far-fetched, Wenger's policy of buying players has become heavily criticized.

Arsene Wenger has always stated that buying isn't ultimately the right option in every case but he has chosen to spend little money bringing in youngsters with not a lot of experience. Now as a fan of not only the Gunners but football, I would never want to see someone like Arsene Wenger sacked, a true genius of the game, but with that being said football is ultimately about winning trophies and if the Frenchman continues with trophy less seasons, people might start asking more serious questions.

Wenger being the genius that he is has constantly had one flaw: arrogance. Not the Cristiano Ronaldo arrogance but the type where the mistakes where obviously in front of him but he chose to ignore them, which is what seems to be going on at Arsenal Football Club.

Maybe it's time to change the policy in order for the club to start regaining the respect and fear teams had towards Arsenal in the glory days.
