Arsenal and their transfer policy

[Allezfan]

we lost lescott pienaar arteta and rodwell in back to back years doesent mean we are worse off.

We are worse off, though. We went from finishing 5th and losing finals to finishing 7th and losing semis.

It's what happens when you sell and don't buy adequate replacements.

I'm pretty sure you just made that up, like.

But it was on twitter, lad....

Hence me saying these days.

As much as I hate Kenwrong, I would prefer him over the multiple billionares running that Club at the moment and I would defo take Moyes over Wenger.

As for squad, theirs does have the better depth and they clearly have some quality players, but I would still take our "best 11".

I need say no more, this post has nailed it - u have no idea how good u have it. u OWN your own club.

U do realise that AFC shareholders have made 400m clear profit in the sale of Highbury and the purchase of Ash Grove - the repayments on Ems is 25m a year - multiply that with nada investment in the squad, sell at all cost best players to boost profit margin, milk up the 6.5% stadium rise and merchandise sales under the guise of a self sustaining model - tidy little earner for Stan and his pet snake Gazidis - OH, did I forget FOO FOO the magic French poodle - FOO FOO can lie without length of nose like u would not believe.

*Arsenal Holdings or whatever the parent company is called don't issue dividends ever.
*Shareholders make their monies selling on their shares for more than what they initially paid for them.
*Also Arsenal invested around £400M in Ashburton Grove.
*Profits made stay within holding company which in turn help to vastly inflate share price.

Then there is other operating costs..

I'm not sure. What did you make up?
