You either do your homework, have your targets planned way in advanced of the window opening, or you don't relinquish squad players on loan, after selling all your stars in previous windows, without reinforcements coming in.
You just can't run any institution that way, not without the expectation of decline. And for this reason, I will suspend any subscriptions, forgo match attendance and refrain from spending any money on Arsenal related subscriptions or paraphernalia, until the club demonstrates that this money, OUR money, is no longer be destined for a one way trip to the bank.
