We've had millions of pounds available each seaosn for years now but wenger simply doesnt want to spend it, 99.9% of arsenal fans are happy with that
I don't have a problem with Arsenal and that, the way they play football and always give kids a go is fantastic and im sure the fans are happy with that, i'm also sure they wouldn't mind a title or two though.
Avram Grant is a shite manager and some of the season has been laughable.
And as to the season going unbeaten, we only lost once in 04/05, and try going 4 years at home unbeaten in the league, about 78 games unbeaten, February 21st 04 was the last time we lost.

1 CL, 1CL Runners Up, 1 FA Cup, 1 Super Cup, 1 Carling Cup Runners Up, 2 FA Youth Cups since Rafa has been here.
Add to that a UEFA Cup, another FA Cup and 2 Carling Cups, another Super Cup and another Charity Sheild since 2000.
Not bad if you ask me.

Take out the runners up parts and we've still won more than enough to make me happy considering our spending in the same time period as Chelsea.
And he doesnt manage them, but he certainly over see's the recruiting (both home grown and foreign), the training and the tactics.

Good for you and your team, but aern't Liverpool fans a tad pissed off that they still are not challenging for the league title, just think Cosmo if he played Torres in all your league games you might be top!!!
Thanks for the reminder about the youth cup, we have the final to look forward to in a few weeks

Would hardy say Grant is having a bad season, 3rd in'r Prem, 1/4 Finals of CL, League Cup Final, really bad manager in't he......
Why do you need to know who I support, what has that got to do with anything?

Been listening to the 'know-fuck-all' Sky Sports presenters have you.
Torres hasnt played in 2 games this season through choice. TWO.
And no, I said before the season started that we couldnt win it this season. We have a great squad, but still two or three top class signings away from challenging...and those are the players we havent been able to compete for - the approx £20m players.

Just wonderd really.
He's not having a great season, losing to Barnsley in the cup when all the big teams were out, then getting to the cup final and losing to Spurs, leaving J.Cole and Ballack on the bench with Anelka left wing, yeah great one Grant!
He's also only beaten Arsenal once this season, losing to Man U and Arse and drawing with Liver, when you want the title that is not good enough.
Especially when you look at the money spent and players we have.

Although technically over 50% of your shares are owned by foreigners With 2 out of the 3 majority shareholders being Russian and American.

I think Liverpool were supposed to be winning the league last season as United hadn't signed any players to match Liverpools strength in depth
As for Chelsea, nice to see them back where they belong

We did alright in the league before Roman came in, pretty average but just ok for the players we had.
We still did alright in the cups before Roman, but obviously not really challenging for the title.
You don't need to remind me about the bad shit we was in under Bates, I still remember the games when we only had half an actual stadium and the car park was like 2 metres from our goal!

Not at all. Some actually thought we could win it this season, Im a little more realistic and know we havent been in a position to compete in the transfer market so no point kidding ourselves that we can compete over a whole season.
I mean you spend £30m on Sheva, we spend nothing on Voronin.
You spend £21m on SWP, we spend £5m on Pennant.

I totally agree, I was dead against these signings but clearly nothing I could do about it
Man City saw us coming it was obvious they was gonna wack the price up, same with Sheva as well.
