Now you can officially start to panic...

[Özim]

the board have been telling us for years there is money to spend and have done zilch about it in regards to pushing wenger, so don't expect a change anytime soon.

They work on the "It's a lovely day, just got paid, stack it up be on my way" principal and so does Wenger.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Unless you want a Abramovich situation, the Board can’t tell Wenger how to run his team. They’ve provided the funds and taken care of the business side of things so we’re now generating more money but they can’t tell Wenger who to sign and how he manages the finances. It’s his choice and the best thing they can do is set the challenge and see if he can deliver. Now that they’re saying the period of transition is over, we’ll see if they grow a pair. They have no excuse now and I can understand why they’d be cautious whilst building a new stadium. But I hold Wenger accountable for the garbage players we’ve signed. We’ve wasted good money on players like Gervinho, Santos, Chamakh, Squallci, players that he’s tossed on to the useless pile after one season. You buy cheap you buy twice. But the Board have to really take a hold of this situation now. No more excuses. Just like when you have to stop blasting a useless player, you soon have to start looking at the manager for picking him. The Boards time is coming and I’d be seriously pissed off if he fails again yet they offer him a new deal.

As you say, they can't tell him how to run his team, but asking who he wants to sign, then telling him not to worry about the money side, they will sort that, is not an abrovmich situation it is what should happen. Wenger didn't mind it when dein did it. The board need to tell him to worry about football side, identiy targets amd them leave the signing of them up to them while we focuses on training players.

That’s true but they’re not going to take high risks when in the middle of the transition. It wouldn’t make sense to rock the boat then so I can understand the caution, especially when none of them at that level have a deep understanding of the game. This season, there has been a clear message sent out by them and it’s not the same as saying he has money to spend. There has been more clarity about our ambition and intention for this season.

three years ago we were told we had more money than ever before and intended to spend it - last season we had the money to spend on big players apparently. the clarity has always been there and the message, along with the type of activity, remains the same unfortunately.

When have they ever been as clear to say that we can afford a player like Wayne Rooney plus wages? This time last year, PHW was saying we couldn’t afford RVP’s wages and this year we’re firmly saying we can. If the club said he had money, we’d always wonder how much he’d have to spend. If a figure was batted around, we’d all wonder if that included wages.

The buzz is all around the dressing room and the expectation for a big signing is there like never before. Besides the finances, the talk around town is that we’re going for the title this year. There is way more transparency.

[Kano]

they could tell us anything, why does it matter? the media position themselves as portrayers of the truth, yet we know how honest that is. so releasing a statement, answering a question or telling the world you have money to burn is as tangible as saying nothing at all. given the size of the deals that have rolled in, they have to give out some pr nonsense about it, to drag the fans along through the summer. the players have been talking about the same nonsense rumours we have on here and the players always talk up our chances of the title, before it disappears off the radar come november.

there is no transparency when you cannot actually see anything bar a smokescreen full of words, rumours and actual, real time, inactivity.

As Ivan said at a AGM meeting, it makes sense for the manager to involved with the process. But you have to wonder how bad Wenger wants a striker this season. Will he blow the budget on one massive signing or have a gamble with Giroud?

Have you read what Gazdis said recently regarding this season and the funds?
