Has a club ever rehired a manager they just sacked? I know plenty have returned after short breaks, but where a club has completely turned face and said 'you know what, our bad'

If Wengy had balls he'd make Alexis the captain and tell everyone else they could deal with having a leader who actually wants to be competitive and win, or they can gtfo

I would agree if that wouldn't assure him leaving in the summer.

My gut says he's gone already, though. And it will suck real bad when the only player that gives a poo poo leaves.

so i agree, but i dont think he should be the scapegoat. it's really an astounding collective failure.

How often do you watch Arsenal play? Monreal hasn't had a good season this time around, but he's been consistently good over the past couple seasons. He's had a couple dodgy penalty calls against him (Vardy at the Emirates last season springs to mind) but those are more a product of bad luck than anything. Arsenal's problems run much deeper than him.

He's any easy target, but if you are looking at defensive line problems, he is the weak spot. The real problem is that he's good but not exceptional. There are a number of Arsenal players that fit this bill. And good players can do a job in a team, in the right circumstances, with the right instructions. Unfortunately, 'go out and express yourself' doesn't work great when you play a team of world class players like Bayern. In conclusion, I think ultimately the reason Arsenal don't have at team of winners is because winners are expensive.

Arsenal's full backs are fine, it's the midfield that's a disaster. There's no quality in there at all

It's not just one failing. We could also talk about Iwobi being undroppable for some nebulous reason.
