    I think there's a bit of that too but I believe if so then he's looking longer term and trying to clear the stadium debt as soon as possible and keep us reasonably competitive in the meantime. He gets his salary either way, why else would he care what profits we make?

    Don't think it's the profits, if he spends more and fails to achieve success then there's a greater risk he could lose his job. By spending little and delivering profits his job is pretty safe, if he spent lots he'd be risking that.

    I don't think Wenger is motivated to just save money for the board and just keep the club's head above water. There is no doubt in my mind that he wants to win games and he wants to win titles - any suggestion that he does not is ridiculous. However, I'm open to the idea that he is overcautious with the money and that sometimes his substitutions seem a bit off the wall.

    I don't doubt he wants to win, but I also believe he's conscious of the finances in the sense that he's aware that if he spends more expectations will be higher.

    The fact he talks about the fact he makes the club profit in the 1st place is a sign of the above, what other manager talks about money when referrring to their performance.

    We need to bribe more refs. We have been shit at this in comparison to the clubs around us over the last few years.

    It worked too.

    My wife got me the away shirt for my birthday.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    We also need more divers in the team.

    Look at Ashley Young or Gareth Bale, these are some of the finest divers in the league.

    No home pels awarded all season tells us that we could learn much from these despicable, cheating teabaggers.
