You can't convince players to stay with out current policy, no player wants to end up 4th for his entire career, after a while it becomes tiresome to see your team falling apart when it matters most.

Ideally Walcott would like to play up front, however I'm sure he'd have no complaints if he was playing on the wing at a big club challenging for honours.

RVP told us pretty much what we already knew in the summer, we lack ambition but when a player comes out and says so he's jumped on as if he's committed mass murder, the facts are there we don't really compete (even though Wenger says we do, he reckons we are very close in both the league and CL every year) for the honours and no player with other clubs interested will stick around as long as this continues.
Then he should have STFU with all the crap about wanting to play uptop and said i want to leave simples.
