"Can't compete against a national state"

Different when the odds where stacked in your favour wasn't it Arsenhole?

Fuck him, fuck all of Arsenal, tarquin cunts.

If Wenger's point was that Arsenal can't compete with City in the money stakes, surely he is right?

Unprovoked and unnecessary.

It's a fucking sly dig and you know it, form a man so far up his own arse he tastes his breakfast twice.

"Arsenal doing thing the right way" after monopolizing the elite to turn football from a competition into a business, then getting annoyed that a businessman outsmarts his club.

Once again, cunts.

I am no apologist for Arsenal. My point was about facts, not opinion.

You ignore my words and rant against things I haven't said. Am I to be the focus of your seeming anti-Arsenal bile?

If we are to debate we must stick to the facts and have the discipline to argue against the written word and not be so sensitive to criticism thats one sees slights where none are intended.

In other words, leave prejudice and irrationality to one side.

Fact: City have the resources unmatched by any with the possible exception of Chelsea. There's nothing wrong with that. There is no superior model, as you put it. The rules allow the current situation. Success is fleeting, so enjoy the moment.

You paid more for Ozil than we have ever paid for a player.

Hypocrites.

Unless you're an android, there is surely a place for emotion in sport or what's the point?

I don't think his comments were aimed at you (but I don't want to speak for him) and you may have missed the point.

It is yet another bitter jibe by a man who has decided what is right and what is wrong, and that was what the reply seemed to be about. I think the inclusion of your post was just for context.

I would also disagree that our resources are 'unmatched', there is more than one way to skin a cat. I'm not saying that (theoretically) we don't have more money available than them, but there's far more to it than that. For example, Arsenal chose to spend their money on a new stadium (a good business decision, and a correct one if you ask me). They have also benefited enormously from being at the top of the table at the right time, when the money started rolling in etc. Also, they wanted a business like approach (to increase profit) even though it clearly advantaged themselves over other clubs, and now somebody has come along with a better business model Wenger whinges at every opportunity but can't see the irony that they deliberately tried to skew the system in their favour.

Football isn't the only thing to get discussed on here, whinging hypocrite Wenger is certainly a reasonable topic. And especially when he takes a sly swipe at our club.

richest man in Russia (ushmanov) and richest family in the USA (kroenke), poor impoverished little arsenal.

Hopefully ours won't be just a moment as our owner doesn't seem the type to lie to the fans about how investing in a new stadium won't affect buying new players. That seemed to bring an end to your 'moment'.

Posts like that, you feel free to speak for me whenever you like ;)

The rant was a result of having a few, but the point stands. Once again, it's one of Arsenal's stakeholders having a cheap pop at us to distract from their own flaws.

Most expensive tickets, booing your own players, boardroom squabbles and a consistent twee self promotion.

And that's the right way? Thank fuck we do it the wrong way.
