Man City have conceded more goals than Man United, lol. A testament to how good De Gea's been.

Happy birthday, zeo!

Can anyone explain to me how Wenger can stay at Arsenal for such a long time and not accomplish anything(anymore) while having the resources that Arsenal have? I'd wager most clubs dump their coach after a such a long time with no results.

King Arsene of Arsenal. I've always wondered how fucking coincidental it is for Wenger to have a name like Arsene and be coaching Arsenal. Pretty sure i'm not alone here.

Because getting rid of wenger would mean complete restart like manutd is doing now. And arsenal needs CL way more than manutd does. Could they survive two seasons with no cl?

I find it funny that Southampton, after losing half of their 1st team, is sitting in 3rd place, while Liverpool, who bought most of those players is in 8th spot.

I just noticed Lacazette from Ligue 1 has more league goals than Messi. He should totally get ballon d'or just for doing that.

yes, im pretty sure they could. They are getting a lot more money with their new stadium, they should be rivalling Chelsea/Manu/ManC but they never do. I think Aresene is directly responsible for that, the guy is old, and fit for replacement. imo.

Wenger is stability and with the stadium debt Arsenal have they need CL every season to pay it off. He isn't winning much but he continues to qualify for CL. Considering the wage budget this isn't spectacular by any means, but when you look at how man utd did after SAF you can't fault arsenal for sticking with Arsene. Also Arsenal fans are amazingly understanding, something I feel many fans can learn from.

Also the name, especially the name :p

Arsenal desperately needed CL income because in addition to stadium debt Arsenal lagged behind severely in commercial/marketing areas until the last year or so. Even with CL money every season the club would have been losing big money had it not been for player sales. The arrivals of Ozil and Sanchez were made possible only by the revitalization of Arsenal's sponsorship deals.

Haha yeah, season hasnt been great so it would be nice if we managed to stay third. Tough game against ajax next week though which considering how we've been playing will very likely lose unfortunately.

@hoenicker. Arsenal are not even close to city and united yet, especially united spending has been out of this world. Chelsea is actually very close to Arsenal at the moment as they comply with FFP, but their strategy of selling youth players for big money has allowed them to compete with City and united nonetheless. Arsenal are getting there sure, but they aren't there yet.

I find it odd that Chelsea doesn't have a new stadium yet. Would generate a lot more income as well.

their problem is finding a site in london to build it without intruding other london based clubs
if it weren't for that i'm pretty sure abramovich could pay cold hard cash for a 100k seat stadium or something.

To be honest, I thought they had paid off their stadium debt somewhere in 2014. Thats why they could afford alexis, I thought anyway. I feel Wenger is too conservative for what they need at the moment, and its just been a club to sell on French players to other PL clubs... So often have I seen Arsenal buy totally worthless French players, when there are equal or better players on the market (from other competitions).

Wegner never had the resources, after the building of the new stadium this is the second time they managed to spend decent money on players, they finally paid off the stadium at the tail end of the last season, so they didnt had that much...

i feel like everyone forgets that United, City and Chelsea, have been wasting and wasting (Russian and Arab) money (especially Chelsea and City, both of them buys players with a freaking shovel...) for such a long time that having a super powerful XI isnt completely out of the equation...

Real Madrid didnt got all their 11 players that won the UCL on a single summer contract, some of them have been for years there (the same can be said about some Arsenal players, but tje quality is quite different in some cases)...

Im not saynig Arsenal is a poor team (far from it, they just finished their new stadium rofl), but compared to the typical champions they are 2 maybe 3 step behinds in terms of money nowadays... something I GUESS should start to change in the forthcoming years
