Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is backing City boss Peter Taylor to come good and insists that Taylor should not be sacked, even though his team will probably hammer another nail in the coffin today at Highbury.

Speaking in today's Sun Wenger says, Peter has shown he is competent. I believe a club that wants success needs stability and that stability in England comes from managers.

"Alex Ferguson at Manchester United is a great example of that. What is important is that a manager keeps technical direction with the club.

"When you change managers every six months, first you go bankrupt and the next thing that happens is that you don't know where you are going.

"How long it takes you to make your mark depends on the club and the type and age of your players.

"It is not very different no matter where you go. It can take eight months to two years just look at Alex Ferguson.

"It took me five or six months to exert my influence here"

Meanwhile things get worse as the Sun's Striker column predicts that City lose 2-1 to Fulham in their fantasy results section.

Does Arsene speak the truth or should he keep his big nose out of our business? Let us know what you think in the Fans Forum.
