I genuinely believe that Arsenal would have won something more recently if they'd sacked Wenger 4/5 years ago and his financial nous (read scrooge like tendencies and love of selling players just as they peak) has papered over his managerial cracks for years.
What a load of bollocks!
Arsenal have a stadium to pay for and they're doing it the old fashioned way. Wenger sells players because that is what the board expect of him, to rid them of debt ASAP! His only brief is to keep them in Europe and reap the benefits of that.
He's doing a bloody brilliant job on sometimes patchy resources.(viz Ramsey this year) He could have skipped off to virtually any club in Europe and won stuff, but no,he's busy planning for Arsenal's future, not that I've ever met a gooner who is in any way grateful;miserable Arses!
