Did not know where to post this, but I think it's interesting enough to be put in a new thread. (my first one here, so if it's not good just pretend everything is ok, don't make me feel bad).

There has been a strong reaction to this on social media, reddit etc. So wanted to see what you guys think about it.
Some quotes from Henry Winter(considerd to be top 10 most influential sportswriters in Britain, and an Arsenal fan ?), I liked them...and I think he talks a lot of sense, and it seems he may have some inside info ?

Ok here we go.

HW opens by summarising our season, 'this was the season, with others in transition. It's frustrating, very sad to see what's happened.'
HW says Arsenal is such a special club, but what's happened this season is a disgrace. It's an indictment of Arsène Wenger. It's sad.
HW says he is friends with David Dein and says the club misses someone so knowledgeable, with such empathy & passion for Arsenal.
HW scathing of Arsenal's limp attempt at signing Suarez, 'a big club would have gone in with a big offer, they became a laughing stock.'
HW believes Arsène Wenger has a fear of strong characters and isn't keen on having people around who would challenge him.
HW says Arsène Wenger has too much power at Arsenal and claims that Arsène was on the interview panel for Ivan Gazidis' interview.
HW says Mesut Özil is one of the most level-headed players he has ever met. Henry adds that he stays and extends his current contract.
HW says fans are the lifeblood of any club and is amazed that fans don't protest more often. Feels that recent banners are deserved.
HW says Arsenal have adopted a culture of being satisfied with not winning and suggests that the club is content with second, third etc.
HW critical of Sir Chips' recent behaviour at club AGM and suggests the way he spoke to fans (shareholders) was offensive & unacceptable.
HW talks about 'Friday Night Football', and says fans need to embrace it, it will become the norm starting with ten games next season.
HW believes our squad lacks balance, needed a new spine. Happy with Cech but believes Mertesacker's days at Arsenal are numbered.
HW says Arsenal need a dominant, ball-winning centre-back and an elite centre-forward. He adds Wenger should sign Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
HW says Jurgen Klopp should be at Arsenal. He also praises Pochettino but says Bilic is the real deal; an excellent upcoming
HW is asked about Arsène Wenger's successor. He suggests the club has dithered, wonders why Arsenal didn't push for Pep Guardiola.
HW suggests that Ronald Koeman would be a plausible replacement, and praises his man-management skills, style and gravitas.
HW speaks of Wenger's charm, 'he is a great man, one of the most interesting people I've ever met but no longer a great manager.'
HW is asked if Arsène Wenger is still a pull for any new player. He suggests that money & location are probably more important now.
Winter says Zlatan sent him a message once saying something like "English journalists are mostly shit but you're alright.
Winter says Zlatan would be brilliant for Arsenal if not mostly for his type of personality & that the Club him.
Winter says he's not in journalism for the money but Arsenal once asked him to write the biography on the Club but low balled him on salary.
Winter says he doesn't like Shawcross as a person after the Ramsey tackle but that Arsenal need a ball winning defender of his style.
Winter says balance of squad is all wrong. Thinks Mert is past it, Kos can get bullied & not convinced by Gabriel. Needs a new spine.
Winter says he hates the Glazers more than anyone as they treat fans with contempt but Kroenke needs to talk more.
Biggest news from AST is that Henry Winter says David Dein confirmed Arsenal had £30m to spend every summer after moving to the Emirates!
Winter says looks at the vibrancy at Spurs and says if Wenger & Pochetino went on the market now; all ambitious clubs would go for Pochetino
Winter says Wenger has too much power without checks & balances on him. Says Dein would never have allowed him to make the Suarez £1 deal.
Henry Winter says off the cuff without giving it second thought that "Kante will probably come to Arsenal next year
Winter compares Wilshere at age level to Goetze scoring winning goal of WC. "Nice kid with nice family" but isn't making most of career.
Winter says Wilshere needs to learn to not dribble into tackles in needless areas apart from perhaps in the box. Wants him to come on.
Winter has been loving of every Arsenal player & so jokingly asked who was most awkward & he said Lauren but Cole was a joy to work with.
Henry Winter says the Board need more football expertise on the Board & a former Arsenal player. Would rather have Liam Brady than Keswick.
