Wenger book: MY SACRIFICE

by .

I am noise sensitive. Not in the miserable sense, but if I can hear the detailed undertakings of mouth and saliva mechanics, it does something to me. It’s rage-inducing, I could literally jump over a table and pull out whatever you’re swilling around and throw it at a waiter.

‘WHY DID YOU GIVE HIM THIS’

I have the same problem in the cinema. It’s acutely distressing to sit in a public space and realise that only a small percentage of an entire nation had parents that’d call them out for being disgusting. Yesterday, I ventured out to watch Joker… I sat next to someone that was quite possibly the vilest human being in existence.

He processed food like a cartoon robot for the entire 2 hours. He ordered 3 drinks, two plates of wings, a HUGE bowl of popcorn, and he had a Trader Joe’s bag of chaser snacks just in case his blood sugar level dropped 0.2% below heart attack levels of overdose. This guy swilled his ice cubes before crunching them like they were a snack. He fellated his chicken wings before devouring them… then he performed the same act on his fingers to deal with the remnant sauce. It was harrowing.

If I ever come to power… I’ll have ‘HOW TO BE A DECENT HUMAN IN PUBLIC’ classes for the kids.

  • Airports
  • Concerts
  • Cinema
  • Dinner table
  • Commuting

Anyway… the film was good, reminded me of the comments section here. JUST KIDDING GUYS DON’T KILL ME ON YOUTUBE.

So what has Ozil been up to lately? He’s only gone and launched a game, hasn’t he…

The game is called The Longest Kick. It’s basically what it says on the tin. You time yourself to hit a ball a really long way. Not sure it’s taking down Fortnite, but bravo to the German for using his downtime for something productive.

Arsene Wenger is back in the news AGAIN, this time, hawking the fact he has a book deal coming out.

“Regret is maybe I sacrificed a little the winning potential against the loyalty potential or desire to build up the club & influence I had when we built the stadium, against the fact I could’ve won more by going somewhere else & being less limited financially”

It’s going to be insanely choked full of propaganda, I honestly can’t wait to read it. Cannot imagine that I’ll be on the book tour list of people to shoot the shit with, but regardless, it should be a fun read, because he has ZERO shame, and I am pretty sure this is going to be a legacy fixer. He cocooned himself from the real world when he was managing us, I think he’s now caught up on the shambles, and he’s embarrassed. He did not expect the world of football would reject him. It has been a sobering expereince. His chats to BeIN have gone from ‘I’ll be back shortly’ to ‘I SACRIFICED MY BEING FOR THE GAME I DESERVE, ME, ME, ME.’

If I were his publishing company, I’d take the book in the three parts. The good, the bland, the fucking disgraceful. Long it out, there’s surely enough of a market to sell all three. I’d also like him to go into detail across all three parts of his career. 300 pages is not enough space to do justice to his mixed bag career at the top.

I also hope there’s some sort of overarching theme across all three of them. It’d be nice of the book was useful in some way. Carlo had a book on leadership, it gave you a fix of Palace intrigue, but it also gave you his principals of leadership. Clive Woodward also had a great book as well. Would love to read something like that from Big Weng.

I just hope it isn’t an attempt to rewrite history. Some lame counterbalance that he thinks will tip elite recruiters his way. Just give it to us honest. What can WE the ordinary folk learn from someone that let power destroy his purpose in football?

I also don’t want the read to be a victim piece. Own it, Arsene. Arsenal gave you £100m, ten years more than you deserved and absolute control of the direction of the club. If you failed, it’s because we gave you permission to do things exactly the way you wanted to do them. Insipid leadership from Stan, embarrassing toady behavior for the Failure in Chief that is now tanking in Milan, are all valid points… but ultimately, it was all on you. If you’re too power-drunk to ask for help, that’s your problem.

I hope he has a good ghostwriter, he should go for someone like Rapha Honigstein. It’d show character to approach a penman that’d have a neutral view on the narrative.

Finally, Unai Emery’s deal is not up next summer. He has the full 3 years. That’s depressing. Like turning up to the airport a day early. Best hope he lands the Champions League this season if he wants to see the year 3 of that deal.

Right, that’s me done, see you in the comments. x

Proof that post 2006 Wenger was not hamstrung financially and it was his choice to be frugal.

Bare in mind that back then the top players were going for around £30m compared to now where you’re looking at over £100m, so that £100m would be about £400m in today’s market.

Really professional England performance in a really shitty environment.

I thought Winks held the CDM position than Rice has, decent in the tackle and much better on the ball than Rice. That midfield is still going to be a problem area against better sides.

England’s attack is absolutely lethal though, when everyone is fully fit the defence isn’t half bad either.

The Times reports a break clause after 2 years:

I can’t find anything on the dot com that mentions Emery’s contract length.

Will keep looking.

Cannot believe how clueless Deschamps is. Emery comes to mind though. It’s a close one. It was “he wants a target man for his strategy” for picking Giroud ahead of Lacazette. Now he started with Ben Yedder while Giroud was on the bench. He wouldn’t have called Laca even if he was healthy. Ben Yedder is a year older mind you. Lacazette valued at 70m euro on transfermarkt, Ben Yedder – at 40m. It’s not even a close call between the two. Laca much better in every way. But Deschamps is gonna pick his stupid shit.

So why was this story of 2 yrs + option of a 3rd bandied around at the start of his tenure and now the opposite?

Did Kroenke Sr originally hope he could find an AW mk II and carry on with his get top 4 with as little investment as possible to carry on??

I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case.

Finally found it at the end of this article on Arsenal.com:

It’s a 3 yr contract.

https://www.arsenal.com/news/i-want-transmit-desire-be-better

Interesting reading how they came to the decision. 8 people on the shortlist and every one wanted it, was interviewed and didn’t withdraw. Eventually a 3 man list was narrowed down and all 3 of Raul, Gazidis and Sven individually agreed on Emery.

I would have preferred the break clause tbh.

Champagne charlie

“Proof that post 2006 Wenger was not hamstrung financially and it was his choice to be frugal.“

Finance not a strong suit obviously.

The fact Emery was hired on a 3-year contract seems to dismiss the ‘interim’, ‘safe pair of hands instead of a proper appointment’ talk I’d say.

Further scrutinises the fact he’s not outlined a vision, or gotten at all close to delivering a new-faced Arsenal. Should have his hand shook in the summer and that’s that, regardless of what results manifest by hook or by crook from this point forth.

Redtruth can read the minds of 17.4 million voters.

You’re in denial, it was obvious why places like Bradford voted Brexit, the whole town looks like the middle east.

There has been a bit of chat at Arsenal blogs in recent times about Hwang-Hee Chan being linked with Arsenal. No idea where the Arsenal links came from but it seems the blogs concerned were impressed by him sitting VVD on his arse while scoring for Salzburg in their CL match v pool.

If he is anywhere near Son’s quality he would be worth keeping an eye on.

Redtruth

Emery’s remit/vision is to get Arsenal back into the top 4.

Redtruth

The irony is a lot of EU eastern European migrants are in favour of Brexit because they are racists.

So if the whole town of Bradford looks like the Middle East why did they vote for Brexit. Is the Asian community of Bradford racist? Racist against who? Eastern Europeans? Africans? Asians?

The Asian community voted remain which is why the leave vote was only 54%.

RedTruth, “I didn’t vote but if I had voted Brexit it would of been because of the number of Muslims in this country.” That does not make sense. The number of migrants attempting to reach the UK will not suddenly diminish because of Brexit. The only difference is that without Brexit, the Dublin become caduc, so there will be no more legal requirements for European countries to take back illegal migrants that have reached the UK shore from their countries. Same with the current Quimper agreement with France which is based on European law. Which allow UK to have a… Read more »

I lived with some Polish for about 3 years and they are incredibly racist and unashamedly open about it too. They hate blacks the most and said back home they were all the same.

Let’s not persist with the political arguments on Brexit. This is becoming an obsession. However, for the record. Immigration may have been an important issue for some in their reasoning for voting to leave, but it was well down the list for many others. For the record Ken Clark the arch European Remainer advocated “controlled immigration” on Question Time in November 2016.

Emery’s contract is 3 years, IG says so at the end of this article:

raptora

benny,

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/arsenal-have-break-clause-in-unai-emery-contract-b7dw7hwjh

Unai Emery’s contract at Arsenal contains a break clause that can be triggered after two seasons, enabling the club to dismiss him one year early.

The Spaniard took over as Arsenal’s head coach on a three-year deal last week but The Times has learnt that the club can invoke the clause without paying up the full value of his contract.

Emery’s contract also reflects the need for financial prudence at Arsenal, who are committed to paying Wenger’s salary for one more year, as well as that of his departing backroom staff.

I saw that you posted the link earlier. If I could guess I’d say that there is a break clause. All logic points that way. But it’s Ivan The Leech Voldemort so who knows. All logic goes out the window with him.

I’m sincerely hoping there is a break clause and that is Emery’s last season as our manager. If there is a clause and Raul and co don’t use it, it will be a crime against our club.

Globalgunner

Even if Emery`s contract is 3 years. We can still dump him in May. Yes we pay him off but only if he doesnt get another job i guess. Even if we qualify for CL. I say we still sack him. We will qualify not because we are good but because most others are crap. Imagine coming 3rd and being 25 points behind the leaders. Useless!

Globalgunner

The way things are going even MC could finish 20 points behind the winners this season.

raptora

Bojangles,
Ornstein does say “I could be wrong” so we cannot be certain. If it’s true that there is no break clause, then the let go after the 2nd season becomes all that more complicated. Raul and co could still show him the way regardless of how much on his contract he has left, but it surely won’t be as simple as I thought when I believed that the contract is a two-year one.

Which saddens me quite a lot.

The fans have the power.

A written contract will not suffice if the fans are not happy.

What happened under Wenger can’t be allowed to happen again.

You know, sit and twiddle our thumbs for a few years(as some of us did) before action is taken.
