How is selling the double Footballer of the Year a smart move?!

You for real? He was the only world class player there and scored 40% of our goals.
Where's the new left back? Why does it matter that Djourou had a clause: why is it there in the first place!!!
Why has Gervinho not been taught to cross a ball?
Why has Wenger retained Diaby? Why has he come out and said Diaby will be a "big player" this season?
Wenger has changed nothing, in fact he's weakened Arsenal again.
I'll have a wager with you that Arsrnal league defeats hit double figure again this season.
If Arsene is ringing the changes as you claim, then you'd take that bet...
But we are in profit again! Yeah Arsene changin...

He's retained Diaby for the same reason he retained van persie 3 years ago when most would have given up, I imagine 3 years ago you were the same about him while you pull your tampax out now that he's gone, he's the manager, if he thinks he's good then he's going to give him every opportunity to succeed.
You do know how the contract system works right? He's not just gonna tear up their contracts and say goodbye, that may work on football manager which I'm sure you're ace at but it don't work like that in the real world.
How much? This team will piss all over the bottlers we've had in the last few years, he's shifting out the gutless ones slowly but surely and putting in players who appear to have more of a backbone about them, like him or not but this is what we've all been asking for.
Over the last few year Almunia, Eboue, Clichy, Denilson, Vela, Song, Gallas, Senderos, Nasri, Adebayor, all players that for one reason or another didn't cut it or messed up while being very much part of the first team plans, he's clearly given up on Chamakh, Squillaci, Djourou, Bendtner and Arshavin and will get rid of them if anyone is dumb enough to take them, that is a sign that he has admitted defeated with the team he built after in the Invincibles and signs are he's building another one which like it or not we should all be pleased about.
van Persie getting sold is out of everyones hands, if he don't want to stay and wants to triple his wages then there's nothing anyone can do about it but get the best price but van persie also needs to take a long hard look at himself as the main man in a failed team, he needs to accept his share of the responsibility.
