I didn't see the game but the reports are far from complimentary. As usual, the big problem seems to be at the very top. Absentee owner and the franchise has lost direction.

Well its unlikely they'll finish in the top four, 14 points behind Spurs, with the goal difference it might as well be 15 points......i can't see how he can announce he's staying on and the potential loss of CL revenue will also be damaging. Are his players really playing for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are his players really playing for him? I've always maintained that Management was content with CL qualification every year and the $ that came with it. Without that to hang his hat on Wenger might have got Kroenke's attention. You have to think that the players feel the rot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that much different from views I've expressed many times before. We've been unnecessarily trying to make do and mend for 2 years now. If a Cheap Charlie like me with a chartered accounting qualification (we FCAs are well known for our prudence) can see that no risks have been taken and cash has been accumulated there's gotta be something wrong. What particularly annoys me is that in October/November the Board realeased the fact that 30 million of cash would be available for transfers - based on the accounts to 31 May 2012 published a month previous. Any accountant will tell you that by 31 May the Board would have known what the financial position was (most likely significantly earlier than that). The board chose to sit on that cash in the Summer Window and are now reaping the disadvantages from not paying for game-changing players. Cool analysis, not one driven of despair. If things get really bad in the second half then market forces will take over anyway, I'm sure we will be a great club again within a few years (by which I mean top 5 Europe, not just the club that strives to make money from the best trophy every year and counts its future development prospects rather than acheivments). Hoping for a vanPersie like miracle in the second half, nonetheless. Spot on Jelly. It's been going on for many years (March 2013 comment above). I am no longer confident that Arsenal will ever be a truly top class European side in my lifetime - which is not why I disappeared from the thread and not a reason to stop following them!
