If we'd have saved on the average squad players wages we'd have been able to afford higher wages at the top end. We've not won stuff for 6 years, when we were Henry and co got paid big wages (this was before Wenger youth programme kicked in and he decided we should pay everyone similar amounts for team harmony Lolz).
We're penny pinchers, that's not enforced it's a choice, moreover if we won stuff keeping players would be far easier......the problem arrives when you don't win anything, collapse every season, don't spend any money of players, sell your top players without replacing them and tell everyone that 4th place is a trophy.
