Prediction: Arsenal will never win another Premiership trophy with Arsene Wenger at the helm.

Oh, yes, they did well for a while. He changed the way footballers in Britain thought. He made them think about what they were drinking and eating. He revolutionised their training regimes. He made footballers behave in different ways.

Wenger’s problem is that everyone has caught him up and he’s being shown to be tactically a little behind the times.

How many times did Arsenal players whinge in the game at the Reebok yesterday? What was their problem? Was it that for most of the first half they were being taught a footballing lesson? Was it that they didn’t understand the new rules on pushing players in the chest?

Or did they take their cue from their manager, a man who is becoming a footballing has-been in English football?

Arsenal are finished. Like Liverpool, their time is over. They need to get rid of the manager and build again.

I’ll say it again, Arsenal will never again win the Premiership with Wenger in charge.

And, you know what, most Arsenal fans know it in their heart of hearts. Chelsea and United will be so far ahead of them that they’ll be fighting for the scraps.
