Spin-doctor Wenger was shameless back in late 2012

The British core story was laughable in December 2012.

Yes, those five players might have been improved by good coaching.

But does this manager really coach?

Or does he just encourage, just practice his quick-passing possession style over and over again.

Wenger’s real genius lies in media manipulation and photo-stories like this one, nailed by Andy Dunn this morning.

My guess: Jack Wilshere’s had more coaching in six months at Bournemouth than he got in six years at the Colney Creche.
