As much as Ive critisised Wenger a great deal and I still feel he has been fatally remiss in certain area's BUT and there is always a but, the real pproblem as you have so rightly cited is Stan Kroenke AND a board who are far less concerned with the club
winning trophies are far more concerned with
running a business that pays millions in dividends into thier greedy pockets!!!
@Fatboy Gooner The Ozil deal was far less that 40 plus million as has been exposed on football leaks it was more in the region of 32 million with verious clauses that enable REM to take a percentage of any profit we make on selling Ozil and I would assume there are similar attachments with the Sanchez deal, even our record signings are clouded in smoke and mirrors so let not
run away with the idea that its all SWengers fault, if your employer is on your back and pushing for results then you perform at a higher rate and push harder where as Wenger has no push from above so does nt go out of his way Kroenke does nt have the culture around him to
win trophies cos thats not his aim and that filters down to the grass roots at Arsenal and shows in Wengers transfer policy and in the players performance.
