Agree.

Whatever you may think, Wenger has done well at times over the last 7 years to keep us competitive despite not splashing out. That 'Eduardo' year we weren't far off the title, had we kept that side together and signed a couple of top players to push us on then we'd have been in a much stronger position. Instead year on year we've sold our best players and not replaced them. We got away with it last year because we still had one outstanding player who could make the difference, then we went and sold him and now we look like a very ordinary side. Still an above average side, we'll still be in the race for top 4, but we're depressingly ordinary compared with our best sides under Wenger. It's massively frustrating when a couple of top players which wouldn't have bankrupted us could have made a lot of difference
