Pathetic club and fans. No integrity.

The fact Arsenal have maintained themselves among the elites for the past 9 years on a shoestring budget is worth just as much as a trophy.
The stadium is beginning to bare fruit now and a real run for the league title will be made next season.
I'm fairly confident Arsenal will win the FA Cup this year.

Glad to see Charlie Adam charged for stamping on Giroud.
Although it will be great to see the little knuckle-dragger get a ban, I can't help but think that if he played for Man City, he'd get away with it.

Arsenal were a rich club for a while and used debt leverage to get some success but now are simply milking that success to make a profit for the owners. Arsenal doubled Manchester City's outlay on players in 2003, and in 2002 City spent £60,000 while Arsenal spent £7 million. If you look back on transfer amounts Arsenal spent £107 million on transfers (not including signings like Robert Pires whose transfer fee was undisclosed) in the eight years leading up to the Invincibles season. Arsenal outspend City tremendously in that period on transfers and that's not even mentioning wages.
Arsenal are still a rich club, rich enough to compete, but it just doesn't seem to be a priority any more.

Originally posted by squealpiggy View PostThey won the League Cup in 1976 and won the FA Cup in 2011 which is 35 years. That's "nearly fifty years" in the same way that Arsenal haven't won anything for "nearly twenty five years".

Arsenal aren't rich enough to compete vs top clubs in terms of wages/transfer fees = FACT,, why do you think all those Arsenal players left to go to city?

Arsenal have money, but Man City are on a whole anothet level.
They can spend 30 mil on Dzeko and put him on the bench. They can spend 25 mil on Adebayor, then give him to the sellers rival team.
