there are 2groups of players that Wenger has let go of in recent times:
1-Players that are past their primes and or on the decline: Vieira, Pires, Henry..etc. Wenger didn't just decide to let them leave, and hey didn't just suddenly turn bad the moment they left Arsenal, they were already on the decline in their last season at Arsenal. Wenger saw that and he sold them (especially since he had their replacements ready)
2- players that were not good enough for Arsenal: Bentely, Cygan, and the likes.
if for example we get someone like Fabregas or Toure or Gallas, then it's not like they are going to play like crap for us, and it is the reason why Wenger would never try to sell them yet. Because these players will be stars wherever they go. But watch the moment that that they reach towards their 30s and they have a bad season then he will sell them

OP
Yes he does do that.But i doubt if someone will be able to utilize Fabregas as brilliantly as Wenger has,or if Henry and Viera had developed into the same players that they are/were had they not been under Wenger's wings.You give him a raw lineup of good 20,21 year old players,and in 5 years time they'd turn into world class players.I cant think of any other coach who has such a gift.
I do agree that his ability to develop Raw telent is amazing. I just disagree that ALL Arsenal players would fail and are not good if they leave Arsenal. It's just that Wenger is smart and does not let go of players he feels still have much to give, hence why he does not sell players like Fabregas or Hleb or Toure even though he would make a fortune off of them
Gilberto has been terrible this season, easily Arsenals worst player this season imo, of course Momo is better, maybe not 2-3 years ago but now Momo is obviously the better player
That is true to some extent, but imo it isnt the case with Cesc, Cesc is obviously a huge talent, i'm sure he would have been big, Wenger or not.

Anelka?? The guy was considered as a huge talent, he went to madrid then what happened!! He failed there big time. Arsene wenger is a genious, IMO he's the best even though he never won a champions league trophy but i rate him very high. arsenal used to win the league once every 20 years or so (they've won the league twice in earlly 90's, once in 70's and once in 50's not that great record). Arsene wenger took the club to another level.......
