Clearly Wenger knows we've lose Sanchez and knows we needed to replace him, he also knows this doesn't affect the clubs profitability, the other thing is the only other time Wenger spent in the January transfer window was when top 4 was at stake, which it is this time round, so he's lost Sanchez and top 4 is on the line, so it's very feasible he's want to spend to make sure he gets top 4 (Aubameyang after all can't play in the Europa and at 28 won't be around too long for any new manager).

Not denying the new guys have recommended certain players, but not convinced this is a changing of the guard either, Wenger has another year on his contract after this season and has said before he loves the game and doesn't know what he'd do without it, moreover Gazidis (if you believe rumours) wanted him out in the summer but he stil got a new 2 year contract, so if he wants it and the club is making money the contract will be there again.

The club certainly seem to follow the 'balance your books" motto when it comes to business. It's always 1 in 1 out kind of thing, always looking to breakeven and be as efficient as possible. I don't think we'll ever move away from that, not whilst we follow the sustainable road. If jabba comes in then yes but under this ownership it's about trying to be smart and shrewd.

You mean '2-3 out, 1 in' :coffee:

Spurs interested in signing Moura, good player wouldn't have minded him here to replace Walcott, still only 25 and at just over £20 million is a snip.

It's not even balancing the books though, it's balancing the transfers so we never spend any of the profits we make, despite a very low net spend in the last decade. Almost every other club spends more than us, the two signings are just really replacements for players leaving not additions to improve our squad/team.

Giroud when he thought he was going to be leading the line at Dortmund:

Giroud when his wife tells him West Ham is the only option:
