    Does wenger do the transfer negotiations? I thought that when the GG Bung scandal erupted the board put rules in place to stop the manager directly making transfer negotiations? Although maybe that's not so any more.
    I did think the 'keeper thing was a mistake at the time but I don't think the 'keeper problem was a big issue last year once Fabianski and then Chesney played and looked good.

    not last season but seasons prior we definitely lost points due to our keeper.

    and wengers got full control of this club. he does pretty much everything, im certain that rule would have been disregarded for monsieur arsene.

If AW stops there then, yes he is mental but until then he's actually made some good signings.

    Interestingly, the purchase of AOC kinda corroborates a story I read about the whole transfer prevarication being down to wages as we have the money to pay the big fees, he'd be on a relatively low wage compared to the guys we'd be looking to bring in (aside from Jagielka and Samba imo, that may well just be ordinary parsimony).

    @SWAYR Mmm. OK. Well as neither of us know whether that's true I guess that's the end of this discussion.

    well yeah if you wanna end it like that to fit your argument then fine. and if you want to be ignorant enough to think wenger has not got full control of our club when it's blatantly obvious he has, then thats fine too.

    Age has no bearing on wages with Wenger. Wilshere is on £60k pw.

    I'd say a striker and CB is more urgent than wingers (especially a £15m winger who has played 0 minutes so far) and our opening three gams supports this IMO of course.

    Perhaps thats what the board want you to think so that they remain blameless/faceless

    My argument is that I don't know how much control he has and that neither do you but if you wish to pretend to have more knowledge about what goes on behind the scenes that than you actually have because it fits your argument than fair enough.

    yours is absolutely fabricated to fit into your argument, maybe because you cannot accept that your dear arsene has finally lost it. almost like a boxing fan who watches his favourite fighter become old and instead of retiring, the boxer ends up carrying on and losing fights. just cant seem to accept the painfully obvious.

    my observation comes from what ive seen/heard over the past few years.

    but yeah this discussions run its course.

    If that was the case why would Wenger tolerate it?

    Can't see him as the martyr destroying his reputation for the sake of a few old men making a lot of money.

    As much as I would love to wish that the restrictions (not buying top players) were imposed by the board because it is devastating watching Wenger decline from the man who created the Invincibles to the man that gave Denilson 150+ appearances, logically I can't see that to be the case given his actions in the past.

    The King Is Back.
