Arsene: Madrid job is Real good

'DISCREET' ... Arsene Wenger
ARSENE WENGER has refused to rule out a summer switch to Real Madrid. The Gunners’ long-serving boss was coy when asked on French TV whether he had spoken to Madrid presidential candidate Florentino Perez.
Far from denying it, Wenger just said: “Please allow me to remain discreet on this matter.” Perez is the overwhelming favourite to win next month’s presidential election at the Bernabeu. Wenger added: “With Perez, the project will be greatly interesting for all the managers.”
Frenchman Wenger took over at Arsenal in September 1996 and has NEVER walked out on a club before the end of his contract. But this time, he would only say: “In general, I always go to the end of my contract.”
The TF1 report also claimed Wenger held a meeting with Perez in a hotel in Paris last Tuesday. But after the goalless draw with Manchester United on Saturday, Wenger insisted he was looking forward to challenging the Red Devils for the title next season. And Wenger has already told United boss Alex Ferguson: “We’ll be fighting you for the title next season.”
The fourth-placed Gunners are 18 points behind champions United in the table and were soundly thumped 4-1 by Fergie’s men in the Champions League semi-finals. But amidst the noisy celebrations of United’s 18th title win on Saturday, Wenger said: “We will be challenging them next season. You cannot see what we saw at Old Trafford and say we cannot achieve that.
“We had seven players 22 years old on the pitch. Why should we not hope to be even better next year? “It was very important we played well in this game. I knew that for the future of the team it was important to give a strong response here.”
And he claimed striker Emmanuel Adebayor, who missed the trip to United through injury, will stay. Wenger added: “The players are under contract unless we decide otherwise. At the moment, everyone will stay.”

If he goes, Arsenal will bloom...Not that Wenger is a poor manager, but because he is under no pressure to win so he use Arsenal like an experiment of his ideas... He has already won titles before, so now he is looking to go for perfection... Winning with kids and playing more beautiful football...
The board don't really cares as long as they are making money yearly... Wenger can still be successful if he pushes his board for more... But he don't. And this is why Arsenal are in the 4th spot these last few years...
