who aren't even allowed on the same pitch as Wenger because they have offered their advice and / or criticism
to the infallible one... I dare you

to the backroom staff so they probably asked him
to give them a list of those
who he would allow in the locker room... on that list he wrote Lehman, Pires and Bergkamp, likely because the first two are the only former players
who haven't publicly questioned his horrible decision - making and the last one because he won't get in an airplane
