Piers Morgan resumes anti-Arsene Wenger rant after Arsenal’s 3-0 capitulation to Manchester City


ARSENAL fan Piers Morgan has launched into another anti-Arsene Wenger rant – branding the Frenchman a “tired old man”.

The Gunners were hammered 3-0 by Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City for the second time in a week last night.

And Morgan was clearly not impressed with what he saw in another lifeless capitulation.

He tweeted: “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.”

Turning onto the club’s top-four challenge, Morgan added: “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’ bulls*** is over.”

Arsenal’s Premier League defeat came on the back of their dismal Carabo Cup final showing.

After the shoddy display, Morgan slammed Wenger’s side in his Daily Mail column.

He said: “We were gutless, uninspired, creatively devoid and technically incompetent.

“We have no leader like Tony Adams or Patrick Vieira, we’ve become a soft touch and the players don’t know how to fight.

“Wenger looked like a death row inmate waiting to be taken to the electric chair; angry, frustrated, careworn and suddenly very old.

“Arsenal are disintegrating as a major club before my eyes. It’s time Arsene Wenger and Arsenal parted company.”

Speaking to talkSPORT, fuming Morgan claimed he would support a fan boycott, adding: “Yes. I think you have to do something dramatic.

“At the moment the board is able to hide behind the fact that, whenever Arsenal fans do protest, it’s never that big a protest.

“I think the real issue for Wenger yesterday was the sheer volume of Arsenal fans who left before the end.

“I never leave before the end – I will stick it out even if we are getting hammered, if I believe the team are putting in even half an effort.

“Yesterday, I left 15 minutes before the end!”
