That's true but when the Supporters Trust voice their concerns then surely they know something that the rest of us don't
But would arsenal fans even think about a 'phoenix' club if they aren't happy with the Emirates? Both FC United of Manchester & AFC Wimbledon have shown what can be achieved if you are prepared to go down that route

I suspect the board don't allow big spending. A lot like Celtic. They remain competitive but refuse to go all in as Rangers did.

He has been very successful compared to most managers in the PL era.
Top 4 each season. Won 3 league titles and the FA cup on several occasions.
He has stayed competitive despite moving stadium. Every club has dry spells look at United they had fun while Fergie was there but he retired and they have been slipping since.
There has been no progress though, the fans want the big trophies not the fa cup. Ok we went through a period where they had to pay off the stadium but what's the excuse for the last 3 years?? Wenger had money to spend and it hasn't really worked out. New manager that can motivate the team needed!

Arsenal fans are in danger of thinking they are a huge club, they are not.
Yep arsenal ain't the size of a real madrid, barcelona or bayern munich but they should be competing more in the league.
But that debacle against Palace surely will have to be a turning point in the debate on his future I can't believe they even lost that game so badly when you consider what was at stake for them
I think it would have ben riveting viewing
I'm a Palace fan,I was there and enjoyed it. Nothing against Arsenal,but a deserved three points for us.
