If Wenger went on for another decade he'd probably outlast some of the posters on here.

Les Trente Glorieuses would be fantastic.

Pourquoi pas? If he is willing to continue, let's give him those. This will allow people to properly judge his tenure. If he able to equal or better his first ten years, even the doubters will agree that the last ten years were a result of austerity.

If this is the Wenger Evaluation Thread, I'll answer your post.
Last season Leicester beat all the rich clubs and you can look at it one of two ways.
1)Leicester had a better team and manager than us (and the other top clubs), made fewer mistakes and played better football. I'm guessing that's your theory because it makes Wenger look poor to be beaten so easily. Even though he beat Leicester twice.
2)Now that there's less difference between the clubs, and competition is much tighter, Leicester were just very lucky, with no injuries to key players, twice the average number of penalties, a lot of close 1-0 wins- some decided by the refs.
If 1) was correct Leicester would not be in the bottom half of table like they are this season.
So if you take away the fluke, Wenger beat the 4 other teams with richer squads. How can that be poor?
Just don't see it your way.

So were Chelsea a 1 or a 2 the season before?

Very lucky, Chelsea were bottom of the injury league and all their key players stayed fit. Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool all struggled.

ABSOLUTE HYPOCRITE! A few posts back you claim the league is much more competitive than it was. Now suddenly the team coming first has been lucky two seasons in a row. This is as bad as Mourinho not accepting blame for his antics. As brilliant as Wenger has been over two decades, last season WAS a let down. He knows it too!
Also, it isn't as if we JUST missed out on the league last season. We were well out of the race a month or two before it ended.

How is that hypocritical? The EPL is getting more competitive every year because of the TV money . . that means that other variables will come into play other than money. That's called a 'consistent argument'.
You just don't like that I answered your question.
