Not really no, he can still go out and spend 30 million for the right player, he spent the best part of 50 million in the summer and 50 the summer before as well.Not bad compared to us. But a significant step down from the £30mill bracket they used to trade in and is now reserved for the chavs and city.

He's got money to spend and he's not scared to spend it, if the Glazers wanted to keep hold of everything they'd give him a few million to play around with, difference is they realise success on the pitch is beneficial to them and the club and fortunately have a manager who believes this too and doesn't pretend some mythical trophy is the definition of success.
I don't mind someone making money as long as what happens on the pitch also matters, I have a real problem with money being the only thing that matters however....which is what is happening at our club.
So Fergie can't find the top top top quality he needs? That's why he doesn't spend the big money? It's nice to see someone who has respect for the Glaziers and their vision for football at least. You won't find the same sentiment in Manchester.

RVP is he not top quality then?
I think a lot of the fans who had concerns initially are now seeing that it's not as bad as they first thought and that the club still spend money even if they do now have debt.....which they are reducing over time.
Man U is a massive club and despite the debt they have it's pretty clear they are able to cope with those debts much better than some expected and much better than most without compromising the team.
They got him cheap, of course he's top quality. Ferguson must have been laughing his bollocks off.
Have you watched Utd's defence and midfield of late? Is that the same quality as previous years or have they dropped a level? The answer is obvious but not conducive to bashing Wenger so I get your point. So if we're finally getting behind the Glazier's plan for Utd it might not be too big a leap to get behind our own board and their misunderstood vision for the future, right?
Utd good, Wenger bad. Ferguson's compromises and lip service good, Wenger a sell-out. But wouldn't it be more convincing if you slagged a team you don't even support? It would add credibility to the anti-Wenger stuff because your argument might be viewed as balanced.

Spot on, not sure why People compare Arsena to Man ud, Wenger to Ferguson anyway. Its dumb. 2 diffrent clubs who are run their own ways, with 2 diffrent managers who dod things their own ways. Its silly. Only thing thats the same, is they have 2 Owners whoare both in it for themselves.
Even before Wenger we were run this way and The mancs were run that way its the way it is.

Fergie has never hated him. never. they'e always been rivals on the pitch. Fergie has always said they share a drink together even in the days of Wenger winning stuff. Fergie has respect for AW and what he has done.
Well he has not brought a good midfilder and a defender his club needed, which is one of the criticism he gets from his own fans. Talking to a couple of manc fans the other day. they said to me the midfield is poor and they could not understand why a couple of quality midfilders were brought in. So i said Fergie is a smart man who can see this, problem is, he had to choose between buying a fantastic stiker and taking a chance in the midfield or vice versa. He don't have the money for both like he used to.
And Utd don't have money, thats a well known fact, thats why they have not spent alot in the last few years and thats why their sqaud has been weak for a few years now.
Fergie knows he can't chuck 50 mill on a player like City and chavs can, his board won't give him that type of money for one player.
Don't be fooled by thinking the Glazers are ambitious or they care about that club, simply they don't. Only thing that goes for them is Fergie is a good manager. Had they had a moyes etc there, they be worse off.

Of course that is luke warm to what Fergie is used to. Not really much quality there. Lets be honest. Lets remember this is not spending big, its the norm going rate for players these days £15 mill is.

Weird how you seek to change the subject when the reasons for the comparisons are obvious. They are managers in the same league who USED to challenge for the same competitions. All you do with your logical foxtrotting is prove the point of Wenger detractors. YES the clubs are run differently, One is set up to win things and the other is.......What is the reason for Arsenal FC these days anyway........ Oh yes...Its to keep Monsieur Wenger happy.
He might be their best manager ever, but id not say he is the best manager ever.
