Wenger might well be involved in identifying the players he wants and who gets contract renewals but i cant see him negotiating wages
I know he probabaly doesn't directly negotiate wages, but I would bet that he has a massive say in how the wages are spread. The reason they're so high, is that we've put shit players on 50k, and RVP our captain can't get more than 100k (poor him eh). Anyway, we don't seem to pay based on quality, rather we pay everyone 50k, regardless. And that smacks of Uncle Wenger wanting all his boys to have the same.
