Wenger finished if Robin flies nest

THE last minute of the game at the Emirates and Arsenal fans who have made for the exits can’t quite bring themselves to leave.

A cluster of them are grouped in the doorway next to our commentary position, peeking back into the stadium, forlornly hoping for a miracle equaliser. The whistle goes, they turn for the door, pausing only to screech “F**K OFF WENGER!!”

A little while later a group of a couple of hundred Arsenal fans are outside waving scarves and chanting “One Arsene Wenger!” That even hardcore fans would sing the coach’s name after a 2-1 defeat to major rivals is unusual, and tells you how precarious Wenger’s position now is.
