    Yes but Wenger still bought projects who weren't entirely proven, difference is in those days he had an advantage in the French market, nowadays he doesn't and his replacements just aren't up to scratch.

    I don't think much has changed in that sense.

    It's lazy to say Kroenke has only been here since 2011. He didn't turn up two years ago on a shopping trip and make an impulse purchase. That's not how these things work. At all.

I can agree with that but he's only been in charge since 2011. You can say we used sell on age back during the Highbury years, true to an extent, but the average age of the team has gone down and guys like Cesc and RVP have played more seasons for us than guys like Sol, Ljunberg and Pires. They were deeply unsatisfied players and wanted out. None of us here believes for a second that Kronke knocked on their doors and said they're being sold to balance the books, do we? I'm not buying the BS Nasri is trying to spin.
    I'm not interested in anything Nasri has to say, I'm merely pointing out the obvious. Kroenke is a massive ****.

    Ok.. but was his involvement good enough to make changes in the clubs transfer policy? Selling our best players, youth policy, haggling over 5K (Cashley C*nt) has been there much before his arrival. While I agree, he hasnt done anything positive for the club, I do not think he has done anything overtly negative after his arrival either. He is exactly what he is called, silent Stan.
    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    Silent, as in, "Spend some fucking money!"... silence...

    It's not just about what Kroenke was doing prior to 2011, it's also about how the last lot of rats were preparing the club for takeover. Again, they didn't wake up one morning and decide to sell. Try to picture the number of ambulance chasers stuck in a room hammering out the deal over an eternity. There was half a billion quid in play, there won't be any uncrossed t's when that amount of cash is involved. The only saving grace was he didn't get the rats to borrow half a billion quid to lend to him to pay them. The rats are just as guilty, and the bastards even hung on to leech some extra cash and free seats (at least the few that weren't stabbed up during the bloodbath).

    Recall how much the rats initially invested. It's the same with Kroenke, he hasn't really put anything in at all. He knows he's getting plenty more back. Again, stuff like the improved TV revenues, that sort of shit is known well in advance. Insider trading they call it. It's how business is actually done, rather than being singular as it's painted in the media (who are owned by corporations and advertisers so never kick up a fuss). For Kroenke this is like putting money in the Bank of Arsenal with the only practical difference being he'll earn ridiculous levels of interest while the typical bank saver gets a zero percent return. These guys are crooks. They risk nothing and take everything. They make their bullshit legal by cosying up to other crooks in the legal profession who make it "respectable" for them to go about their thieving.

    All of this would maybe be bearable if only the ****s kicked something back, even a token gesture. But nothing. Fuck all. It's all take. Saying Kroenke is okay because he's done nothing overtly detrimental is like saying a doctor who sits there and lets a patient die because he wants the blood and organs is okay, after all he hasn't intervened right?

    Society is now one polished horde
    Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.

    "After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
