Dont be silly man. . . which youngster at Arsenal is earning £30k a week?. . . .  when even established bois like Alex Song are only earning £40k.
Danny Fiszman said. . . . .

“If Arsène said he needed £30 million for a striker, he would get it, no problem at all,” Fiszman said. “It is not our decision who he spends money on and nor will it ever be. We totally back Arsène, but there is a dual problem for him. If we were to buy the sort of big names that people talk about, we would be looking at relatively mature players who then need to be integrated into the way we play.

“Secondly, it impacts on the youngsters, and in many cases Arsène thinks it is quicker for us to bring a player through our system. But that does not mean all we are interested in is the artistic achievement award. We are not settling for second-best. We want to win trophies and I think it is time we did, but Arsène also believes in creating teams with a certain style.

“There were great hopes that we would buy heavily this summer. But I would refute that we have not bought well. Nasri has two goals in two games at the Emirates Stadium, and if Arsène could find the right player, he would buy again, but he hasn’t.

“I hear all the time that we have no money, but I just wish someone would take the time to look at our accounts. This is a proper business which produces its own cash and lives or dies by its performances. Our net payments are £20 million and the revenue increase from the new stadium is close to £50 million. Explain to me how that stadium is a drain on the club, when it produces an extra £30 million a year.

“This constant suggestion that the stadium is bleeding us dry is crap. The reality is our wage bill is very similar to Manchester United, substantially above Liverpool and substantially below Chelsea - but that is to be expected. We pay good salaries, but we pay them more evenly, so we do not have extremes of very high and very low wage-earners. There is an ethos of a team effort."

I've never said sack Wenger, BUT if he fails to correct the OBVIOUS errors in his ways (e.g hire a bloody defensive coach!!!!) and no one at the club has the balls to tell him to do so, then he must make an honourable exit before he ruins everything.
At what point are we going to stop believing Wenger will change his policy?
This man is stuck in his ways to groom his embryos into the next Ronaldo or the next Messi.
The simple truth is. . . . . .These kids are not good enough.

Ibime:
hehehehe. . . so Debosky is now part of the "sack Wenger" brigade?  grin grin grin


Lets put it this way. . .the £20m extra spend that Arsenal needs to become Champions only applies whilst Wenger is manager. Should Wenger leave, that figure jumps up to £50m. . . .

The Alex Songs, Denilsons, Diabys, Fabregas, Clichy's etc will no longer be coming through for close to nothing. . . . whilst £20m seems like a small amount now, it is only so small because the rest of the team is made up by cheap but brilliant buys by Monsieur Wenger. . . .

If you sack Wenger today, in 5 years time when you have to replace your squad with established names, your £20m will only be enough to compete with likes of Stoke City.
This is bollocks, abeg!!!
Few managers have punched above their weights with mean budgets in this league.
Wenger's economics is a tad over-rated. The question is not about £20 million net spend he makes but the type of nimble players he tends to buy.
Denilson, Nasri, Walcott, Arshavin, Clichy, Ramsey, Eboue. . . . .All these lads are midgets compared to Mikel Obi or Didier Drogba.

Walcott vs Ashley Cole? A classic mismatch.

Ibime:
Wenger is keeping Arsenal in the top 4 on a negative net spend every season. . . the only manager to consistently have a negative net spend over the seasons.
That is what SELLING CLUBS do.
Negative net spend means shyte if you don't WIN anything with it.

Now, we all agree that he is stubborn and only 2 or 3 more players would turn Arsenal into contenders. Lets say those extra players would have cost £20m.
If you now sack Wenger and give another manager net £20m to spend, will the other manager even qualify Arsenal for the Champions League? The other manager would do a Mark Hughes or a Harry Redknapp. Besides, Fabregas and others will leave if Wenger leaves.
It's either you don't pay attention to details or you have a bout of selective amnesia.
Each and every time these players are ripe or close to full development, Wenger sells em off like broilers.
A look at the employee turnover rate in the last 4 seasons @ Arsenal should tell you Wenger's objective is not winning titles.

Infact Arsenal cannot afford to spend net £20m per season. They can perhaps do it as a one-off.
Tottenham can afford it.
Sunderland can afford it.
Aston Villa can do it.
Stoke City can do it.

Arsene Wenger has no excuse. . . . . .

Looking at the bigger picture, Arsenal have to persevere with Wenger unless you can name one manager that can keep Arsenal in contention even with an extra £20m to spend.
Martin O'Neill will win titles with that Arsenal team with less than £10m to spend.
There are decent strikers one could nail on loan in England without actually breaking the bank.
United got Tevez for £10million in 2007.

what budget?
i know spurs have been spending regularly for 2-3 years now, are we saying they are richer than their neighbours?
Didnt the old man cough out money to buy asharvin and Verma?
Wenger is a dim-wit.
He was dozing when Tottenham got Gudjohnsen 2 weeks ago. . . .
Eidur woulda joined Arsenal had Wenger showed interest.

so what the hell stops him from buying a decent striker when adebayor left?
why opt for campbel and sylvestre when u can get quality defenders for as low as 5-6 million
The poof has pulled the wool over the eyes of the GAYnners.
Arsenal are not the first club to build a stadium. That excuse is getting old.
They make money through the gates, the Emirates itself was built from bank loans so i see no reason why it should affect transfer fees.

the man has got no reason not to buy. i dont buy the budget constraints story- its a yahoo yahoo story
u buy the story, u become wengers maga cheesy
United just copped awoof 6 points from the GAYnners.
I wish we play them every weekend.

Look at this dimwit. . . . .
Arsenal outplayed your team of geriatrics and woulda copped a draw but for their appalling defending.
They battered Chelsea and had Bendtner started. . . .who knows what woulda happened?

Last week, Arsenal barely had a kick in the game.
United outfoxed, outthunk and outperformed the GAYnners.

I will tell you why i am surprised this season. . . . . .
After the loss to Chelsea and Man U last season which culminated in our ouster from FA CUP and UEFA CUP respectively,and the aftermath reaction from the fans,i could have bet with my life that Wenger will do things differently.
The French manager is an obnoxious vermin.
He's too stubborn and i don't see Arsene Wenger winning the league title till he retires.
Past success hinges solely on David Dein.

I do not want to go into a long tirade but did anyone noticed the "instant" change the introduction of Bendtner brought to the game today?
We all predicted a 4-2-3-1 formation last week with Arshavin, Cesc and Nasri supporting Bendtner upfront.
Diaby and Song to provide cover for Arsenal's back four and they woulda stifled Chelsea a bit better.
I dunno what happened to Wenger all of a sudden. His managerial nous in the last 18 months has been a disgrace.

No words can match the anguish felt by Arsenal fans who know that one or two buys in January might have given the team a fighting chance with a fit striker against Utd and Chelski - Arsene decided to remain stingy instead, and coupled with the poorly organised defence, has led to this sorry state of affairs. sad
Clichy has deteriorated.
Vermaelen showed first class naivety tonight. He was solely responsible for the 2nd goal.
Nasri, Walcott, Denilson, Rosicky, Sagna and Almunia are not worthy to wear the RED/WHITE shirt and lastly. . . . .Wenger should resign.

dayokanu:
It is definitely easier to win the EPL than to win any other league.

Mourinho won in his first season what they couldnt win for 50yrs, Ancelotti is on his way to winning, Grant without a license almost won.

Wenger in his 12 years of coaching won one league in France and even Japan combined and he won in his first full season in England.

Juande Ramos from La Liga won a trophy in his first year in EPL, Benitez won a trophy in his first year in EPL

When in EPL you compete with dumbasses like Redknapp, Mark Hughes and Sam Alardyce
This is absolute tosh.
EPL is the toughest league in the world.
Lil wonder, super-class managers like Ramos and Benitez failed to win in the EPL despite spending tonnes of cash.
How can anyone doubt the class of EPL? Real Madrid will not finish in the top 3 in the EPL.

I might be hopelessly quixotic but I still think there is some substance to this
team, a lot of unfulfilled potential.


Wenger just has been a bit of a blockhead. I think he is trying to ape
United's formation with Arshavin playing Rooney's role, something I
don't think suits Arshavin's talents.

That said, some of their players will need to pick it up the rest of the season,
none moreso than Clichy and Sagna. Clichy especially has been quite poor, and
I would rather have Eboue playing for Sagna because of his greater attacking nous.

And please someone tell him to stop playing Walcott on the wing. He should be
tried up the middle.

Oh well. . .Knowing Wenger and his block headed ways, they will be coming out with
the same lineup against Liverpool.
Every time Wenger musters the effort to close the gap, Chelsea and Man Utd move up another 5 notches.
It has taken Wenger the best part of 6 years to build this team and they appear poorer than they were even last season.
How do you play Arshavin, Walcott and Nasri as a front three for a club as big as Arsenal? It's unexplainable.

Aston Villa have a better attacking threat than Arsenal.
Birmingham/Stoke/Tottenham have better defenders than Arsenal.
The age excuse have been fully expended. . . . .There are no young players any more in Arsenal.

Wenger should resign.
He should raise his hands up and admit the project post-2004 has failed massively.
In that period, Ferguson has won 3 EPL titles + 2 UCL finals. . . . . .

United,Chelsea and Liverpool still to play each other.There's also City to contend with for both United and Chelsea.United do have a tricky fixture list coming up.
However,it's more of chance than reality.My opinion.
United have clicked into gear.
All the big players are getting back and it can only get better with a blistering Rooney and a new-improved Nani.
Chelsea are not going to drop many silly points. . . . .They are determined and they have a manager who has proven himself in Serie A.

From now on. . . .It's a 2-horse race.
Letz just hope Everton do us a favour this week.
It's going to be an exciting title race from now till May(i hope Vida/Rio get back as soon as possible).
