Do United fans respect Wenger?
Relatively speaking there has been very little disrespect shown to Fergie in this thread.
Not much in the way of praise either sure, but relief that he's finally gone is to some degree a mark of respect.
Maybe not, I don't think it matters if their fans respect Wenger. We are exactly the same as them if we are as petty as they are.

What would me up about Fergie was the way he bullied the press/referees and other managers and, often, got what he wanted. I think he was pretty unique in that respect.
He did also help a lot of managers out if they came to him, did a lot for the LMA as well. He acted like a first class cunt at times but he did it for his club and I'd expect the same from our manager. To be fair our manager has been a bit of a cunt himself at times towards others. Like Fergie though every player who has left has never said a bad word and always said he made them a better man, like Fergie Wenger will be remembered as a great man for his club but someone who also looked out for his players.
