Wenger was happy to overpay for average players who then we couldn't move om. £350k a week for a player was a joke then, and an even bigger joke now.

and I suppose that is at the root of the frustration for fans.
The Arsenal earn big money and charge the fans a fortune to see the team.
I wouldn't mind being milked so hard if we could regularly challenge for the title and see top quality players on the pitch in every position. To say we have no money for players is laughable when there are hundreds(?) of millions in the bank.
But I suppose we'll make do with Xhaka, Iwobi, Mustafi, et al whilst Stan buys up real estate for himself in the USA.
And that is also a point, innit? Football isn't for the Yanks because, quite simply, they don't understand it.

The club, and especially the manager, should never, ever mention money, imo.
