Atletico Madrid beat Arsenal 1-0 today to win the second tier Europa League in lameduck manager Arsene Wenger's last shot at redemption. There will be no trophy, not even a debased one, no backdoor Champions League next year. A dreary sixth place finish in the Premier League, a mind-numbing 36 points behind Manchester City.
This feels like Death of a Salesman. Just, the guy couldn't do anything right. Hung on too long. Distorted view of himself and his sons. "Liked, but not well-liked." Fucked up even his suicide. Isn't that Arsene Wenger? This feels like Arsene Wenger as Willy Loman.
