We've spent a lot and remain nowhere near winning the league or being competitive in the CL. That's the problem.

No amount of money will help us now, not with him in charge.

Probably is. Most logical players would do this though.. If I were Ozil, I'd regret the day I signed for AW.

I feel more sorry for the younger players that have wasted a lot of years. Theo was the first of a botched experiment. Gibbs, Wilshere, Ox and Rasmey are the others.

Ox is still young, Wilshere and Ramsey have a little time to turn things around but Theo just turned 27 and Gibbs is up next. It's looking bleak for them. Theo especially. Bought to be developed as a striker but is no mans land. Not a winger. Not a striker. He'll end up like Podolski and Wiltord. Maybe worse.

Have seen the media reports today. Arsène Wenger was a big reason for me joining Arsenal – this hasn’t changed! #Respect #AFC

Of course it hasn't changed, Ozil. It's impossible to change if he was the reason you joined. :lol:

It would be pretty ironic if Ozil left because of Wenger. :lol:

What a horrific message that would send out.

It's almost as if, and bear with me here... it's almost as if the press and the gossip sites are making these stories up?

Say it ain't so! :lol:

It's bollocks and speculation but I don't see Ozil in hurry to sign a contract so we'll continue to get these stories until he signs. Same goes for Sanchez.

Are any players in a hurry to sign their contracts these days? Seems like they all run them down to the last 6-12 months before they'll even think about talks - gives them a stronger position to negotiate.

Call me an old cynic, but I'll bet this is more about strong-arming themsleves a bigger cut of the new TV deal than anything else - chuck enough money at any of these players and they'll go / stay anywhere...
