    I know our wage bill is something that is detrimental to our ability to sign players but we keep getting rid of the big earners, that has to start counting for something in these transfer windows. We're also in the process of getting rid of a lot of deadwood so again their wages are off the wage bill.

    Make some signings motherfuckers! DF, DM and ST!!!

    Apparently we have 17 non homegrown players at the moment, the maximum allowed. Someone's going to have leave if we're looking to add anyone.

    Squillaci, Chamakh, Bendtner, Arshavin and Park should all help in that department

    You could be on to something, maybe we don't have as much money as they seem to tell us, which where they need to be honest. Or the board and the manager are a bunch of greedy mofo's who see that profit as a way to put that money in their pockets.

    Why cant we have a splurge every 2 years. not asking each season to make a loss, but every other season have a splash on some top players and the season afte have a quiet window. Who knows, we may have won something if we actually went for it once in a while! speculate to accumalate
    You don't need to spend big to win things, we deffo did not need to splash out millions ot beat brum in the CC final. With the teams we have had over the last 7 years we should have easily won the CC or fa cup and even the league once or twice.

    Kroenke will not have bought without knowing he can make a return on his investment. He saw the way the previous shareholders milked the club and exited at the optimum moment, he says he's not going to change anything and why would he? So we continue to use the team as a profit generator and share price inflater. Wenger's ability to keep us in the CL, the huge prices being extracted from the fans and the annual raping of the team, plus the fact the various commercial deals have margins that can be improved significantly tells us Kroenke has got his maths right and will do very well when he takes his profits. He will need to ensure the bubble he is creating doesn't pop before he cashes in, of course.

    Dude, that profit does not go into their pockets, else they would have to declare a dividend, which to mind knowledge hasn't happened in a while.

    As N_Q and others keep on saying, it's the share price they are driving up, and at some point all of them will get their pay day.

    People need to stop equating profit with cash.

    Fuck me, even the media do it. It's ridiculous.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
