ARSENE Wenger admits his Arsenal reign could end unless results improve. The Frenchman, humbled 8-2 at Manchester United in August, said: “I’m in a job where results count and they decide your future.”
He was devastated by the Old Trafford humiliation even though majority shareholder Stan Kroenke gave him his total support.
Wenger added: “Stan Kroenke’s words are a beautiful sign of faith but I’m also a realist.
“When you lose 8-2 to Manchester United you can’t say ‘I’m the best in the world’.
“It’s not that I feel in danger, it’s simply I’d like people who love this club to be happy and you have the taste of failing in our mission when an avalanche like that falls on our head.
Big disappointments are part of our job. The team is insecure. Every time we concede a goal.”
Arsenal won only one of their first five league games after the exit of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri. And Wenger insisted Nasri only joined Manchester City for the money.
Wenger added: “If you compare what Arsenal have won and what Manchester City have won you don’t go to City to win titles. The players go to City because they pay much better.”
