Super Super Quality Transfer Speculation & Shit

[Joker]

Too many of our players are definitely overpaid, despite accomplishing very little as footballers. This lulls them into a false sense of security, makes them think they've "made it" despite possession mediocre talent and not having done anything of note in their careers.

[Power n Glory]

As he says no-one saw Bale as a winger then and we had Clichy and Cole around then.

This, on the other hand, is truly disgusting. And sadly, I have a feeling it's true. Wage parity for so many around £50-60k is ridiculous when most have done fuck all at the club. What's even worse is Kroenke seemingly picking up £25k a week for doing nothing.

Mickel Arteta does not get that much he was on that with everton and took a pay cut to join us, the rest of this sucks tbh.

Thing is though Bale is a very good winger too, he's creative scores goals and is direct so the full back thing doesn't really stand up, especially when Wenger is well known for playing players in different positions.

As for the salaries, we've known they were all rather high due to Wenger's policy of "fairness" and wanting to keep most of the squad on similar amounts (one of the stupidest ideas he's ever come up with incidentally and there have been a few).

Also 7 million for Wenger, that's staggering and a total ripoff, it's no surprise he's happy with 4th.

eassy to say now he was shite in his 1st couple of seasons for spuds and if we had got him then you'd have torn wenger a new one. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Thing is you can spot talent even when a player doesn't deliver, Walcott doesn't have any IMO and never has had (I've been critical of this for years), Bale however does even if he hadn't performed the same would apply.

Diaby for example has talent, we've seen it, unfortunately he's always injured, in reality he should have got rid of him by now though as he's just too injury prone, it's a shame though because if you remember the CC final a few years back he ran the show.

Fair do's ill give you that id have never have known Theo would turn out this poor maybe it was the hope i had for him to be that wonder kind that blinded what he really is.

Yes Wenger should have got bale, do should Fergie and the chav manager then they were all in for him its only AW who is silly to keep bleating on about it.

How so? If our wage bill is over £100m year and none of our senior players earn over £100k a week, how do you explain the huge bill? These aren't precise figures of course but's funny how you can say the rest is crap but still make a firm statement about Arteta's wages.

Let me explain When i said it sucks i meant some of the wages we pay not all of them as some deserve them. but the dross we have on 50K suck.

I thoought arteta was on 40-50K which i did not think was too bad for him as he was on more at everton.
