Agreed. Wenger is a jumped up accountant with a flair for talent spotting who got lucky inheriting and landing some great players. Now he's been found out.
That's not really was I was saying. Anyway...
You said that we wouldn't have won in 02 & 04 without Henry and I agreed with you.
If Wenger is just an accountant than why does he still get 4th time after time even though it's supremely difficult and other teams with more money spent fail to get it?

Sort of a pretty big jump from there to "accountant who got lucky", like.
Take away Henry and all we had was Wengers tactical brilliance to rely on. Big jump indeed.
Yes, because Vieira, Pires, Bergkamp and Campbell didn't exist obviously. Good one.
And they were all gone by 07 too, funny that.
Great managers continue to roll on, lucky ones moan about pitches refs anti-football and the prices these days.
How is that relevant to the -02 and -04 league titles?
The relevant thing is that you don't let small things like relevance get in the way of an opportunity to roll out the old, flawed rhetoric.

No, that's someone like Dules. Except for the "jumped up" bit (though he did award himself a peerage I suppose).
Wenger's been a well-renowned football manager for about twenty-five years. You sound like a daft troll calling him an accountant.

Please name these other teams? And don't say 2014 Man United

Turnip keeps moving the goalposts
"[We played] in the Champions League against Bayern, we are in the final of the FA Cup playing many big teams, we are seven points off Liverpool who only played one competition, so we have been consistent. In the Premier League we missed some games and we pay for it now."

Strong words I agree, but your rhetoric's off the charts.

How is Arsenė Wenger 'moving the goalposts'?
Maybe one or two wins at home would have made that difference.
According to Wenger Make that four more and he'd be right.
We dropped 13 points at home, City have only dropoed 5, Chelsea 7 and Liverpool 8. Way off the pace.
Meh - all the other teams have dropped silly points too
