Is economics really his forte though? Unless they plan siphoning that bank account, leaving money lying around unspent in a hyper inflating market is not smart economics. On the other hand, I suppose boosting the balance sheet so Stan can use Arsenal as gold plated collateral is a smart enough move if you are a con artist only involved with sport for one reason. So Wenger's not really a football economist, he seems to be a bit of an idiot in that respect, but he's a decent enough fund manager. Lots of growth for his shareholders. Well done. No wonder they want him here forever.
