yes, it's the same arsene wenger
i think that he buys all these blacks (usually french or african - which is basically the same with all the ties that france has with africa) to make money (for example he bought clichy for nothing in french 3rd division and sold him to manchester city)
but when it comes to soccer, it's different
you can tell that his favourite players are/were whites, except thierry henry
when he sold fabregas, he replaced him with arteta, another spanish middlefielder
this season he bought mertesacker
i think that he always had white goal keepers
he has a 100% white central defense
he buys french players, so ofcourse there are blacks amongst them, but he also bought koscielny, squillaci, maybe giroud in the future
back in the day there was robert pires, gilles grimandi (i think that now he is in charge of the scouting for the club), emmanuel petit (nicknamed the viking), flamini
you can tell that van persie is his favourite arsenal striker
i watched tons of matches with wenger as a commentator, and he is often asked to say what he thinks about english football here, and i pretty much always agreed with him, and he often puts over-rated black players in their place (he commented the 2010 world cup)
he's the kind of guy who is not affraid to say that african football is inferior to european football, that some arab players are too selfish, he said that capello should have been able to choose his captain without any pressure, and when asked about the next coach he said that he should be an english coach because english coaches might not be superior to the others, but it's better to go to a competition like the euro champs with a guy who is from the country he will represent
he also supported john terry when he insulted anton ferdinand
regarding the french quotats scandal, he said that he was against quotats (increasing the number of white and arab players at the expense of the blacks), because the best players should play regardless of skin colour
without quotats, there would be no black players in the french national team, our black players are token black players
he said that spain helped reminding everybody that football is a skill sport, which is exactly what the french who discussed about the "quotats" said, so he agrees with the main point
wenger is not the worst, there are others french currently who work for manchester united and chelsea, they are responsible for gael kakuta playing for chelsea, lassana diarra also probably, pogba to manchester united, ngog to liverpool, mavinga to liverpool also, gabriel obertan to manchester united, and a lot more
meanwhile, gilles grimandi has been spotted in a montpellier match to watch olivier giroud, he also wants gonalons
actually, even though there are/were a lot of french players in premier league, i can't think of a white-french player who didn't play in arsenal first, except the players who won the 1998 world cup like laurent blanc or leboeuf
they are the only 2 white-french i can name who played in england whithout starting their career at arsenal, and that's because they won the world cup
it shows that wenger likes white players, which is not obvious at first glance
but you have to take into consideration that when he is scouting for young french players, this is what the "talent pool" looks like:
the thing i don't like with him is his cosmopolitism, the fact that he buys french players
if he wants to buy french players, then he should be a coach in france, he would do well there
Regarding St. Etienne in the 70s - is Georges Bareta still around?
he's sometimes asked about french teams, but he is relatively unknown compared to larqué
he said recently that he was very happy to watch the euro champs in poland, since he is of polish origin
Who needs technology?
