Down with this sort of thing

Wenger's actually going!

After 22 years, 3 league titles and 7 FA Cups he'll leave the Emirates at the end of this season.

His statement: “After careful consideration and following discussions with the club, I feel it is the right time for me to step down at the end of the season.

“I am grateful for having had the privilege to serve the club for so many memorable years.

“I managed the club with full commitment and integrity.

“I want to thank the staff, the players, the Directors and the fans who make this club so special.

“I urge our fans to stand behind the team to finish on a high.

“To all the Arsenal lovers take care of the values of the club.

"My love and support for ever.”

Wow.  While it's been coming, or at least should have been, for a good few years now it's still a bit of a shock, isn't it?  They might not have picked up an away point in 2018, or expected to be battling Burnley for 6th place in the league, but who actually thought that he'd walk?

Despite the recent difficulties though, you can't forget the good times and the impact he's had on the English game.  History will no doubt judge him favourably, and who knows, he might yet sign off with a cheeky Europa League.

Merci Arsène.
