He was happy at Madrid and only sold to fund the Bale transfer, so I don't think it's beyond all realms of doubt that Arsenal probably wasn't his preferred destination. We just happened to be the ones with the cash to burn at the time.

Every now and again something decent happens in football. Not often, but sometimes.Quote:
'I rang up (Arsenal) physio Gary Lewin and told him I wasn't feeling great,' Gascoigne told The Sun.
'He said to go to hospital as he feared it was pneumonia. Wenger then agreed to arrange £28,000 to pay for treatment. Arsenal also paid £22,000 when I had hip treatment.'
But, when Tottenham were facing Real Madrid in 2011 in the Champions League, Gascoigne claims he was told by his former club that he would have to pay to get into White Hart Lane.
'I wanted to watch Spurs against Real Madrid and got told they only had two tickets for £60,'

I don't get it - why the fuck did Arsenal pay for that? Did the NHS refuse to cover him? If not, he should've been queuing up like the rest of us.
Pretty much.
How come the papers are all over Rodgers claiming he has 2/3 games to save his job yet nothing about Wenger being past his sell by date?
odd.
That's because Rodgers is held accountable to his board, whereas our manager isn't.
Our manager IS the board. Chips and co are just there to count...their chips I guess
