Arsenal Legend: 'Mediocre' Arsenal need change
The former striker has always been an admirer of the Frenchman, even getting into Twitter altercations with some of Wenger’s critics, especially on ArsenalFanTV.
​But recent developments - especially this Sunday’s embarrassing 3-0 League Cup loss to Manchester City at Wembley - seem to confirm that the North Londoners are going nowhere with the Frenchman.
Signed to a new two-year deal last summer, Wenger is being increasingly challenged by both fans and pundits.
"There are excuses [from Wenger] and he is mollycoddling a team," Wright told BBC Radio 5 Live . "Whether he stays at the end of this season, I could not make a case.
"I am not sure anyone can. This development of mediocrity has to be arrested."
"I want Arsenal to challenge again, for them to sign players who will get you excited. I want someone in the boardroom who will lay it down. A few of the players are on easy street, own properties and are renting them out.
"How long would it take Arsenal to get back? It will take them a few years.”
