Arsene Wenger is owed an apology after Man City verdict. Football should have listened to his incredible insight in summer of 2011. City picking off another Arsenal player on the back of a record sponsorship deal. His words are so striking in retrospect https://t.co/kjZPV40oV7
Aku paling suka jelek2in Cheksea.
Dan nggak kehitung tweet aku yg ngetawain Man United saat di fase terpuruknya.
But let's be honest.. Momen (sebelum era Manchester Cheating) ini menyentuh banget sumpah 🫠
3 sosok yg buat kita saling sinis tapi saling hormat juga 🥹🫶
I’ve always watched his post-match analysis videos. I didn’t always agree with him, but on this, I couldn’t agree more.
Let some of these City fans who are still defensive gaslight you on the question of fairness.
Give HUSAM his flowers for this clip❤️
Pep Guardiola inherited a team with De Bruyne, David Silva, Kompany, Sterling and Aguero, and still spent €500m in his first two seasons. For context, in his first 18 months, he spent as much as Arsene Wenger did in 21 years. That’s what £900m of artificial revenue allowed.
Watching a legend like Arsene Wenger saying he couldn’t sleep at night over the thought of needing to sell his best players to City every season to pay for the new stadium is genuinley a sad watch. Even as a rival fan I feel for him.
On this week 30 years ago... Arsenal appointed Arsène Wenger as manager!
Three Premier League titles, seven FA Cups, the Invincibles. A rivalry with Sir Alex Ferguson that defined an era, and a legacy that changed Arsenal and English football forever 🏆
30 years of Le Professeur ✨🇫🇷

"Mereka (Man City) membeli semua pemain saya," kata Wenger lalu tertawa.
Terdengar seperti ia sedang bercanda. Namun akhirnya kita tahu, itu adalah tawa yang benar-benar menyakitkan.
Arsene Wenger waktu itu diwawancarai mengenai hukuman UEFA atas pelanggaran financial fair play. Ia berbicara di Berlin pada 17 Februari 2020. Berikut kutipan selengkapnya;
“Saya pikir ini pertanyaan yang mendalam. Pada dasarnya, olahraga adalah tentang meraih kemenangan dengan menghormati aturan. Itulah intinya. Kita mengapresiasi semua yang terbaik dalam setiap cabang olahraga, tetapi kita ingin tahu bahwa mereka menghormati aturan.
Jika tidak ada penghormatan terhadap aturan, itu bukan olahraga yang sesungguhnya. Jadi, menurut saya, itulah yang paling penting.
Aturan itu ada dan harus dihormati. Ketika Anda mengikuti sebuah kompetisi, berarti Anda menyatakan bahwa Anda akan berkompetisi dengan mematuhi aturan.”
Arsene Wenger on Arsenal's money situation: "We're blocked, we could only spend 50% of turn over on wages. We had to sell our best players"
Then Manchester City were inflating revenue upto £900m to build a team & win on the pitch under Pep Guardiola & co.
🚨 NEW | He warned us before anyone else.
Before the 115 charges, before the leaks, Wenger called it financial doping while others celebrated. They mocked him as bitter while Manchester City took our £38m team that beat Porto 4:0 piece by piece.
He could have walked away or broken our club to compete. He didn't. He built a stadium, paid our debts, kept us in the Champions League and protected Arsenal's soul.
Today proves he was right all along.
Thank you, Arsène. The conscience of our club. ❤️
