We had Gibbs 10 years ago & soon worked out he wasnt good enough to fill Cole's boots, we ONLY just found someone better than Gibbs & there are still a few doubters about Monreal. Its not hard when he's buying dross like the fat Brazilian.

And yet we've finished top 4 every single year, we've just won the FA Cup twice in a row and we're currently top of the league.
He must be doing some things right. :shrug:

we should be finishing top 4 each year based on wage bill and income. winning the cup twice is good and being top of the league is good. he just needs to push home the advantage of the issues surrounding all our challengers.

I guess top 4 is about par - although clubs spent a LOT of money trying to displace us.
But I don't think we have any right to think we should have swept all before us in the last 10 years with Chelsea and City running amok. Only Fergie managed to wrest titles out of their grubby mitts.
But yes, we now have the finances and the players to properly compete and we should do so this year. No more excuses.

But aren't you grouping yourself into that group of Internet twats by saying there should be no more excuses?

Getting linked to Aubameyang each day

SSN said he missed their training session today

Would cost at least £35m

More than that and given all the links to Dortmund players over the years, how many have they sold to the UK? One.

He wants to play in Spain anyway, going by what he's said in the past. And Dortmund would never sell mid season given this is their recovery after last year.

There will be a massive romance explosion in my pants if Aubameyang joins!

No, I don't spend every waking hour going on about how useless Wenger is and how I'd be doing a much better job than him. (Somewhat exaggerating)

But we do now have the financial clout to compete. The players Wenger has bought in the last 3 years have made a difference, we should now be competing. But I'm not going to shout 'Wenger Out' at every bump in the road.
