Arsene Wenger has never been a good manager for the club and fans. His major targets is money making for the club and to the detriment of fans generally.
Wenger merely go to the market for the sake of participation and end up not buying any player for the summer. He can never fool those of us who are ardent followers/fans of the club. We are grown wiser now when it comes to transfer market and Arsene Wenger.
Wenger has become money making machine for Arsenal, he does not care about winning trophies , his job is safe and nobody questions his authority and decision making , he does not care about how the fans feel, but time will tell
