When those deals expire, we’ll likely receive sponsorships that bring in £30m more per year. -Our wage bill is fourth-highest in the league, but £25m behind United and £50m behind Chelsea and City. ...

Arsene Wenger and the Whale's Back
runofplay: Arsene Wenger is like Schrödinger’s cat, or one of those particles that are supposed to be able to exist in two places at once: it’s impossible to measure him accurately because we don’t know enough about the constraints he’s under at Arsenal. If the board is pleading with him to spend money and he’s responding by humming loudly and composing an oil painting about youth development,...
