    That Bayern model people were mentioning is what most clubs in Italy have and its not working for most of them. All they do is trade sporting directors and managers. Its a revolving door with more firings and re-hirings than you see anywhere in England. Juve stomps everyone because they're the richest, just like Bayern...there's no need to go deeper

    What Wenger has done is incredible. To manage the club and oversee player transfers directly while consistently making the Champion's League on a sometimes limited budget is a remarkable accomplishment. It's just not all that smart, because one person doesn't need to do all that.

    Only one person is preaching the Bayern model lol.

    Saying that, Arsene does have too much on his plate and the club does need to move towards not being a one man club like it is now. I think the club is doing that on the youth side.

    Structure-wise, nothing matters other than having more cash than other teams in your league, whether by outside infusion (PSG, Chelsea, City) or by maintaining huge yearly revenue (Utd, Real/Barca, Bayern). By a combination of our lower revenue and byzantine system of allocating money we have settled into the 75 points and round of 16 exit that will continue ad infinitum.

    Always have those two fired up on Mondays after work to listen.

    5Live's...not sure how to react. Yes they have The Monday Night Club and, whenever the CL/EL is on they'll have post-match coverage.

    Kelly Cates on the Hillsborough special was incredible, however.

    I am big Arseblog fan. Good chemistry between James and Andrew /Arseblog. They have from time to time some top guests as well (Amy Lawrence, Ken Early...). The show is usually very informative, level headed and generally humorous and fun to listen to. At the other end, Bergkamp wonderland is a purge. Not worth it.

    In some ways, we'll honestly be lucky if that continues. With Stan as owner even that will difficult if say Liverpool get purchased by rich Chinese owners or another team joins the Man City path.

    we don't need 70 year olds in top positions, no matter how well they did in the past.

    Italy is a corrupt league with massive issues and talent problems - hardly a decent comparison to germany

    Here is a great article about Arsenal's poor spacing

    774607926702977028 is not a valid tweet id


    This is a common critique from germany as i posted before from speilvercom- but this is a different guy

    The real lesson is that Bayern were dross in the 00s despite their financial advantages

    So they set out to transform the club with a focus on changing the style of play and strategic talent management.

    This all started under LvG

    Arsenal need this kind of transformation because Wenger is yesterdays news as far as first team management goes

    But the trouble is nothing can change because he micro manages everything

    Worse than that - there is no succession plan in place because the people who should be leading each area have not be bought into the club

    cf bayern or bvb where it does not matter so much to change manager

    Indeed when Arsene leaves the club all those things will need to be addressed and the successor will be at a disadvantage - then the Wenger knows best crowd will say: See, are you happy now? :D
