Let's not kid ourselves, Arsene is a proven BS expert, look at his post match interviews, the "I did not see it comments", the lies about players not going when it's clear they are.
It's hard to believe much of what he says, he doesn't need defending, he gets a healthy slice of the pie and is more than happy where he is, if he wasn't he'd walk away and find another club. He's certainly no victim in this.
He's very frugal with money, we've seen this many times with his purchases and the kind of players he goes for, rather than bring in one or two quality players he buys 3-4 unknowns, that's what he likes to do. He's also always preaching about economics and buying players at the right price etc.

Well he is not going to say yep im going to sell then etc its not his way. If people are dumb if enough to believe it more fool them.
My point is they all chat rubbish not just him, you say PHW and Ivan chat shit all the time or is that when it suits your argument.
Im not saying AW is telling truth. Im saying its hard to know what the truth is. No one really knows.
"I really like Arsenal. Do you really like Arsenal, or only Arsenal with trophies?" - Dennis Bergkamp.
"Which Arsenal do they want back, the one Arsene created?" - Tony Adams.
Not sure what that has to do with anything all managers have a go at other clubs. Like i said So much BS has been spouted im not going to sperate AW and the board from each other.
I don't believe in the 1st 2 years we moved in the ground we have that much money to spend. Its only in the last few years there seems to be this war chest we have that is never seen or spent. But who knows.

The old "If you've gave me 100 million to spend, I'd give it back" comment tells you all you need to know about the man, noone forced him to say that, he came out with it of his own accord and this just shows the guy doesn't want to spend money, his philosophy is based around finding unknown players and turning them into top players, he's often cited bringing in players unsettling (or "killing" as he put it) his younger players, he also talks about his youth policy as if it's been a great success....for years he's basically wanted to build a team from kids and unknows and make it succeed, that's what he wants to do and spending money doesn't fit into that policy.
