wenger was given money this year, he spent 35 million of it. the difference being is he spends wisely and gets more out of the money then someone like liverpool who just buy shit for lots of money

The difference being that we seem to need to sell to buy. Our net spend is negative, which is either because the board are telling Wenger to balance the books or he has taken it upon himself to do so,all in the name of "self sustainability". Surely it wouldn't hurt to run a deficit for one transfer window? Especially given that there's surely been an accumulation of funds from previous windows that haven't been spent.
spending 35 million on three players is ok. spending 100s of millions on three players is not. operating a football club where you spend 117% of your entire turnover on wages etc is not accepatbel and no pride in wining.
all clubs need to spend money to win, however there is a difference between what we spend and city spend and why one way is much better
