Tomik - why would we pay 5mil for wilson palacios when we sent him to birmingham already, he would have been free if we wanted to keep him after his trial…

he should be, but looks like they are not bothering with only 3 games to go and nothing to play for!

Didn’t he say Sagna was out for 3 weeks? shouldn’t he be back by now?

People remember it is disrespectful to question le boss. I ask you , just who does he think he is? I would question an awful lot of what he did especially his strategy with Eboue and the RB position in the abscence of Sagna. Given the lack of any rational logic to those decsions what choice are we left with other than to question did he actually know what we was doing over the last 8 weeks ???

What do you expect mate? Same old shit mentality from Wenger. Can’t win shit, but boast about playing the best so-called football. Pathetic really. Cut from the same cloth and brainwashed. How sad eh? Where are your medals guys? Oh, who cares shit, we play free-flowing football. That’s a myth anyway.

Even the players are happy with second best…

RVP:

“So that is the trophy we have won this year - respect and lots of it.

Brilliant… Arsenal should rent a topless bus and parade your respect trophy Robin…

Henry broke my heart when I heard he took a £6 million pound signing on fee and £4 million in wages in his last year at Arsenal

Firstly I think that was a great post. The issue as stated is that a football club is a football club first and foremost should be handled like that. It is apparent that AFC s being run primarly as a business with football it’s main product line.This is the single most imprtant reason why we are behind and continue to fall behind the bigger clubs of Europe. Obviously we would not like to see a situation wherein in the club is so heavily indebted where it reaches the state of a Lazio and or Roma.

The problem with the model is that at some point in time young footballers become world-class players or above average. At this point in time they command top dollar and if they cannot be paid accordingly by their existing club - they will sekk pastures new. Especially when the club is not winning trophies.These players leave- you are again left with more youngsters and the situation becomes cyclical.

The established players may not want to come cuz of a) lower wages b)the prestige isn’t the same and c) playing with a bunch of younger plyrs can be disnoncerting.
Imagine urself @ 28-30 hanging out with soem youngsters-I find it hard to do with a 19yr old. So i don’t see why footballers are any dfferent. We need to get that balnce now so that we are integrating younsgters and seasonal professionals with oru developing team.
