One website today confidently stating that Wenger won't splash any significant funds on new players until qualification for the Champions League group stage is hopefully secured on the 28th of August.
God, this is going to be a long, long month.

We all knew this what's new.

Wenger won't splash any cash FULL STOP!
Wenger didn't splash in the bath as a kid, wenger never went near puddles as a toddler, wenger never had a mark on him when coming out the pub toilets as an adult, wenger and splash don't go guys.

If we win the league - we are the proven best and therefore don't need to add to the squad.

If we come 2nd-4th we can mount a challenge for the title and compete in the champions league, so we don't need to add to the squad

When we come outside the top 4 this season I need to hear the excuse for buying SFA in the next SUMMER window!
Im going with, 'well we had a lot of players injured this season therefore now they have returned we will be far stronger next year'

Another wasted opportunity.

Too many excuses, the board don't have the courage to fire Wenger, but they should.


I'm sure that the reason he won't sign anyone is because he's looking to get the PSG job.

George Graham anyone? (joke)

IMO this is just lazy journalism. We saw the same crap two summers ago. First it was 'Wenger has a plan!' then it became 'First we need to sell and see what we need' then that changed to 'We're waiting til we've played Udinese' then that changed to 'we're waiting til the first game of the season' then that changed to 's***, we just got raped by Man U in the most humiliating day in Arsenal's history. Maybe we better sign some players. '

It's b*******. We are not waiting for a qualifier. Players know damn well that they make us stronger by joining so our chances would be higher of CL footy if they moved sooner. And seeing as they want to move, this is in their interests. We could have signed Mata before Udi but as the Eds have explained millions of times Wenger dithered and we lost out. Our CL tie this year is no different, the reason we haven't signed anyone is because we went on tour, didn't have a decent plan, got knocked back for Bender, Gonalons and Grenier and only now are we starting to deal with it. Oh and Wenger's fax machine isn't all that quick.
