He’s delivered no returns for his shareholders since the IPO. What a disaster of a company.
-
He's probably getting minimum double or triple the pay he's currently getting. This is a no-brainer move for him. Come in and do well and be treated like a local hero. Fail and everyone knows Ashley is to blame anyway, and gets money when he's sacked.

I’m laughing at our spending compared to Aston Villa/Fulham/Everybody else It won't be funny when we get relegated.

I wouldn’t call 3 PL titles and 7 FA Cups “didn’t lead to them winning anything” like. He faded badly near the end obviously, but should be remembered as the brilliant manager he was. He became more involved in the financial side over time because he won things and the board respected him. That's when things went awry for them. He should have just stuck to managing the team.

Didn’t they have a wage cap in place? I thought the likes of Henry, Viera and Campbell were on the top money and they wouldn’t go any higher than that. Hence Ashley Cole fucking off to Chelsea. Their wage cap was an aggregate wage cap, but Wenger hamstrung himself by paying shit players really good wages, which meant he couldn't pay the best players top-end wages. Look at what Perez has done at Madrid as a great example. He pays decent players decent wages, but never over-the-top wages that results in him unable to sell them if need be. And he pays the best players the best wages because he knows that the team needs top-end talent to win big matches.

Wenger refused to change the wage structure and that led to them overpaying bad players who couldn't be sold, and underpaying good players who eventually wanted to leave to be paid better. Over time that resulted in a squad that didn't have enough top-end talent. If he had changed this structure, they would have been able to afford the top-end wages and would have attracted enough top-end talent to keep challenging. Now they've dropped far back from Man Utd's financial power because they haven't challenged for anything seriously in a long, long time. Wenger prioritized cohesion in the squad by making sure everyone was paid well, except that cohesion didn't lead to them winning anything.

Are we really getting some oil money? -
He scored two of their biggest goals this season (home against Liverpool, away against Man Utd). I think it'd be crazy to sell him.

Yeah, this is a clear forfeit, which I guess makes sense given how shit our squad is. -
Glad we didn't pay 25m for him. I would have been happy as well as his form last year was great.

SD’s stock price down by more than 10%, ASOS getting killed today in a sign that retailing is really suffering. Wonder if this affects his willingness to sell. -
We need to sort out our home form ASAP. Need to start winning at home and we'll be fine.

Ashley is always trying to start a bidding war.
