[Tweets] “It’s over” – Arsenal shareholder blasts Wenger following latest humiliation
Celebrity Arsenal fan and club shareholder Piers Morgan has once again blasted Arsene Wenger following our latest humiliation against Manchester City on Thursday night.
Just days after being beaten 3-0 by City in the Carabao Cup final, we found ourselves three behind once again but this time it took Guardiola’s team less than 35 minutes.
Stunning goals from Bernado Silva, David Silva and Leroy Sane blew us away before the half-time interval and understandably the team and manager were soundly booed off by a half empty Emirates crowd.
We spurned a great chance to get back in the game when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang saw his penalty saved early in the second half but the reality is City could probably have scored at will as they eased to another comfortable win.
The defeat leaves us 30 points adrift of the champions-elect and 10 points off fourth-placed Tottenham so understandably there have been fresh calls for Wenger to leave his position as manager.
Piers Morgan rarely wastes an opportunity to make his feelings perfectly clear on the subject and the life-long Arsenal fan and shareholder once again took to Twitter to demand Wenger is sacked.
Like many fans, Morgan has questioned when the farce will end and asked why the board isn’t acting. He described Wenger as a ‘tired old man’ who has run out of ideas and says his time as manager is ‘over’.
If Arsene Wenger was manager of any other Top6 club in world football, he’d be gone after last night’s debacle.
WHY isn’t he being sacked?
What IS going on at Arsenal?

Manchester City were magnificent last night.
Guardiola prowled the touchline for 90 minutes, urging, cajoling & berating his players to ever greater heights – even when they were 3-0 up.
Wenger just sat there like a tired old man who’s run out of ideas or energy. It’s OVER. pic.twitter.com/whyj93ZYkJ— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) March 2, 2018
30 points off the Premier League lead & 10pts off Top4… why are we even still debating Wenger’s future? Arsenal’s board need to do their bloody job, grow a pair & sack him. The time for ‘Arsene will leave when he wants to’ bullsh*t is over. pic.twitter.com/YGXPlAfbYl

It’s difficult to argue as it’s clear the time has come for Arsene to leave. Like many fans, I’d love the club to come out now and announce Wenger will step down at the end of the season as that would give the fans a chance to unite and give him a great send off.
Sadly, I think the board will continue to sit on their hands and wait until the summer to make a decision and we’ll have to endure a toxic atmosphere around the club over the coming months.
What a sad way for it to end….
