Why there is a demand for change and the reasons to be optimistic for the future

He didn't have a seat on the board. Arguably it was not his choice. All he wanted to do at Arsenal was to ensure they were financially supported and the best quality team that could be mustered.

I see no difference to his approach soon to be implemented at Everton.

Whilst throwing your high and mighty opinions round you might want to take a breather and actually read some peoples posts properly before making sarcastic responses......where on earth did I say he had a place on the board?

If Moshiri had influence at Arsenal where he seemingly earned his spurs ( pun un-intended) and that is where he gained his wealth of Premiership knowledge we're all excited about.."wasn't he also therefore culpable of being part of the team that consistently backed a 'nice guy' manager whose winning streak dried up? I don't see any signs that he'll "want a ruthless manager".

Is it right to be comparing Wenger's marginal stagnation (with 2 FA Cups thrown in) and Martinez's virtues? In any case the anti-Wenger faction has only become fairly vocal for a few weeks now.

They didn't just have reservations. They then tried to claim Everton was an inferior club to Southampton and West Ham. Players would prefer to go to other clubs than Everton.

Allegiances aside, would you rather sign for the 6th place team in the league, playing in the Olympic stadium every week & getting a taste of european football, or would you choose the 11th place team, playing at an old stadium every week?

Yes, Moshiri is a massive boost and I personally think we will exceed the likes of West Ham and Southampton under his ownership, but it takes time and I don't begrudge anyone questioning our present power to attract top players.

Right there in black and white below.

Yep still looking, I clearly do not say we are inferior to saints or west ham lol

Nothing is ever easy.

However adopting an inferiority complex or thinking that the task is larger than it is

will not help get us where we want to be. Winning pots.

Nor will deluding yourself into thinking the job is smaller than it is. The club has spent the last three years deluding itself that 'we are on the verge of something special here', when really we have been championing mediocrity. That's what needs to change if you want us to succeed. Massive changes are needed.

I was saying he didn't have a seat on the board. That means he absolutely no influence on the hiring or maintaining of Wenger in position.

Board members run the club. Shareholders can only appoint or try and have board members removed in most clubs.

It was a very dubious post at the start.

When you stated that. It was totally unacceptable.

I've never championed mediocrity.

If you think I have you are wrong.

Thats 11th in the Premier League. Not 11th in the Championship.

Three years?

A lot longer than that.

Fair enough mate. I think behind your crazed nonsense there is an understanding that we have a very big job on our hands in order to keep up with our peer group. I share the same hope as you that Moshiri will be successful in taking on this job. But I'm going to wait for it to actually happen before I start convincing myself that everything is fine.
