Possible RVP replacement?
We spent about £40m last summer - there's your Cesc/Lesbo money.Quote:

It's because our commercial deals are terrible (roll on 2014 expiry date) and our wage bill is gigantic.
"Oh but what about Spurs, they're always buying players and they don't have a sugar daddy" This is often spouted. Spurs' annual wage bill is £30million less than ours. They can spend £30m every year on signings and we'd still have spent the same as them if we signed nobody.
Many fans don't grasp this.
We have a new excuse ladies and gentleman, squad size :lol:
Not our fault he's filled the squad with sh*t players noone wants! Same old same old, fans are fooled into thinking things have changed!
We never do the necessary and will once again come up well short. Let these guys go on a free if they're not good enough!
Nic - Denilson - Arshavin - Chamakh - Squid - Rambo on loan - Vito/Flaps thats 7 or 8
2 strikers - 1 DM - 1 DF - 1 AM - 1 Mid - at least one back up GK - if we brought all that in to replace by like I'd splaff my pants but we would have to spend more than we got.....so aint going to happen
ahh yeah forgot one Mr RvP - funny that........don't consider him around anymore
The fact that the likes of Wilshere and Diaby took up 2 of our squad places last season and neither kicked a ball tells you all you need to know about Wengers squad size theory
He's always got excuses, I suppose we should give him credit for coming up with brand spanking new ones every season.Quote:

given that wenger wants the deadwood out, do you really think he will not just unregister some of them to put new players in their place?
to me the squad size quote says, we cant go out and sign 10 players because we cant play them, but i have no problems in getting rid of the deadwood to the reserves and putting a couple of other players in the squad in their place
To him they're not "dead wood" they're "dead good" so no I don't think he will unregister players to put new signings in their place. I think he has the perfect excuse for not signing players.
apart from the fact we've been trying to get rid of them. arshavin, bentner, squallichi etc otherwise they would be on the plane now.Quote:
