He's one of arsenal's top board, why shouldn't I believe him. I don't think he'll make such careless statement if really there was no money to spend.
And if you reason that quote well, you'll know that there's a tendency for Wenger to return huge sum given to him(I mean 100m was massive then). Here's the full link tho.

https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/arsenal-transfer-news-arsene-wenger-has-over-ps200m-in-the-bank-to-spend-as-gunners-ready-karim-benzema-bid-10412448.html&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjC4b-QufWAAxUXQEEAHTlJD9YQFnoECAEQAg&usg=AOvVaw1g6EUYWX0GmbCwKZynR6Bp


I believe Wenger had some sort of powers to get some things he wants if he wants to (esp holding on to star players) but basically he's too principled for be that.
That's one thing with Wenger if you show desire to leave he will sell you straight away
He doesn't believe player is bigger than a club to hold such club ransom I like that about him

Oyindamola no naa..

You forget before Kroenke assumed full ownership, we were managed by a board that had some nasty infighting about the finances of the club. When exactly did Arsenal even start spending under the Kroenkes? Was it not 3 or there about seasons ago? Was it not 3-4 seasons ago, post Wenger that we bout Pepe on installments for 72M or there about? Wasn't that post Wenger? After Wenger left, why did the fans stage a serious protest when the Kronke's expressed intention to join the Super league alongside other clubs purely for the monetary benefits? Was that also Wenger?

Post Wenger, even after Pepe, were we not still buying Chelsea rejects to fill up the squad?

Make una stop this thing abeg!
But we had this Everton Russia owner gazidis abi what's his name
He also came out openly that there was money, my point is people can't just come out and be saying the same thing
Although I know Wenger don't like gazidis
Post Wenger actually opened up the lies this man have been selling to us imagine we got Pepe for 75m and we still no enjoy am but we were able to buy again
If it was wengay era he will say we did a bad deal and we must recover the 75m before we can buy na life be that?

The previous ones were audio money. He only got money when he signed Ozil, Sanchez and off course Mustafi. grin

Even mourinho know he was afraid of spending big he labelled him specialist in failure
He rejected Madrid and psg offer not for love but he know they will sack him if he didn't deliver
He's a good manager a living legend but arrogant and power drunk

Roland17:
And that is who you want to believe. Read that quote again and show me where he affirmed Wenger did not spend! Did any thing in that quote affirm Wenger was given 100M and did not spend?

Have you read what Usmanov had to say about the board and backing Wenger financially? Have u read about the infighting going on with the board and how Wenger continued to douse the noise by keeping us in the UCL and EPL? Do you want me to post that?

You think Wenger was happy about RVPs exit? Or the other stars he had to sell after painstaking development?

https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2009/may/23/arsenal-arsene-wenger-transfer-policy
Rvp opened up that the reason he left was because wengay couldn't assure him of better players we sold nasri, adebayor etc and this man still insist there was no money to buy
I felt rvp betrayed us but if we look at it with open mind he deserved something in his form that year

Naaa. After having enough of the scapegoating by the board and rumors, here is Wenger publicly calling out the board. You can argue he could have taken advantage of some transfers but he absolutely wasn’t the reason.

https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2009/may/23/arsenal-arsene-wenger-transfer-policy
Bro you know wengay na
Very secretive and arrogant too, he will never come out plain there was money
Okay can I ask why do we have money all of a sudden after all it was same owner when Wenger was there
This was aan that went to officiate in Italy on deadline day or thean that went on spending spree after being humiliated by the scummies 8-2
Why are the board saying there's money the man always return it
He sent th14 out of arsenal when he was getting involved using punditry method
None of our legends associated with the club because of respect for him and they don't want to tarnish his reputation
Wengay portray the kronekes as the culprit whereas he the main villain
Why did he break out transfer record 2 times in a season if there wa no money

Jodera:
Money was not an Issue, Wenger ambition was.

He couldn't care less about spending high as long as he got that top 4.

Ask yourself this question, which season did Wenger break back to back arsenal spending record?

It's simple, it was the season where we finished outside his darling top 4 and it was difficult to claw back in.

Forget that lamba Wenger dey sell us... Arsenal really had money to spend then. Certainly not like Man city but it was enough to keep us competitive but Wenger refused until it was too late
The fact that we are still paying for Emirates makes everything painful

Which 200m?

The fact be say Wenger wasn't given money. He had to sell to buy.

The argument is that, if he had insisted he would have gotten money. But he was the type that preferred the love of the owners to the trophy cabinet.
They play
Something he confirmed himself, even his member of his technical crew leaked the news

Me i see everything as not giving him money to execute what he wanted. If he was getting 100m every window, it will be obvious. But we were getting some windows with only 20m spent overall. That was a money issue. Not wenger. But i agree that he was stubborn o. But it was majorly was was given to him.


Years that we go wait till last 2 weeks of transfer before we get linked to anybody?? Omo
Ngbo jodera them no give baba money😂

Talent too plenty for South America they might not even make 10th team attack

Changing players over the years is now termed as overhaul?

The kind of overhaul you are talking about is an instant replacement of all players in a window or two at most.

Even pep no do am.
No not possible you can't change an entire squad at once
Even Chelsea went through about 3 transfer windows

You didn't answer my question? Should he be punished or not?


Every action has consequences. He should face the music. Anything he gets, he should take it.
Of course he should be punished
Losing his job should be the least, he can be suspended for 2 to 4 months without pay

What do you think should be done to him? What do you think is the appropriate punishment?

Fear women especially when they are in group and all agree on the same thing.

The said girl is now talking tough. She is now calling for exemplary measures against Rubiales. Sanction against him and all. Something that will make such incident never happen again. Like saying, let use this guy as an example.
That is my point
When the incident happened hermoso said she didn't like the kiss, then after she defended the man using emotions as excuse only for her come out in full force saying the man should be punished
That's just someone confused right there, the foolish man didn't help himself too by insulting those who called him out but he's apologised
What else do they want, if he want to have anything to do with her will it be in the general public

We will soon reach talking or looking at the F gender will be tagged molesting

I saw that video too. I think these guys getting involved in female sports should know they have an extra duty of care to themselves to coordinate themselves well . Football in particular is an emotional sports that can make u go haywire sometimes, but knowing u are a male in the midst of females who themselves are very emotional creatures puts u on the spot. You need to be more cautious so as not to embarrass ur lineage and ancestors.

I remember how I went crazy at the viewing center for Arsenal's 2014 FA cup final win when Ramsey scored the winning goal in extra time. I threw away my shirt, hugged any random arsenal fan whether male, female, transgendered or hermaphrodite. The emotion was over the roof. If there was a camera somewhere who knows maybe they might have caught some inappropriate footage sef.

Well I'm not a professional sha and the fact that those coaches and officials are professional, they expect them to act as one. Maybe they should just allow women to handle women sports so some of these things will stop being issues.
Why man go they chook eyes inside female sport sef
The protocol won't be straightforward

I really pray you would use your hand to see your own contradiction.

Because if you acknowledge that indeed there is wrongdoing, then you blaming people who are asking for accountability means you actually support bad things.
I'm sure that if the man came out, acknowledge that what he did was wrong and apologize in a right manner, the whole thing will die down.

The aim of the "dragging" is to highlight the wrongness of these kind of actions. That you also think that it's only "feminists" your usual Boogeyman, that cares about injustice says all we have to know about your mindset. Seems like you hate people who seek to call out wrong.
Idiot

Just watched a few clips of dem Nasri and Arshavin era
Vs Fulham(Nasri both goals), and Sanchez/Ozil Partnership vs Chelsea, 3-0


Thunder faya whoever was in charge. These guys just needed defenders and a great GK to rule the world and they couldn't give them that?


MA has really tried that it looks like the abysmal years are non-existent. Until you watch those clips and wonder why the owner never say diamonds and support them with all his heart. Mtchew.
Blame wengay nobody else
The man was arrogant, hypocrite and power drunk
Even a blind man know if we invested we would be unstoppable, imagine ozil and Sanchez in their peak having auba kind of striker
Just forget the defence for now I am sure if our opponents score 5 we will return 10 that's how good those 2 were
The man just use our emotions play thru turn us upside down those that invested reap the reward na
