I genuinely don't understand why the Wenger lovers think Mourinho is the one holding up the Sahin thing? Do you think Jose is so hung up on Wenger! In the past 7 odd years, Jose Mourinho has won I believe 4 league titles, about 7 domestic cups, the World club cup and the CL.
In that corresponding period, Wenger and Arsenal have won nothing.
So we are not a threat of any note to Madrid. Mourinho won the argument against Wenger a long long time ago.
Jose keeps winning, Wenger keeps failing.
So if Sahin doesn't sign, the AKBs cannot use Jose as the excuse here, because there's no 'competition' with Wenger - only in their minds!
I don't understand what is taking so long on the Sahin deal....Oh hold up, maybe I do.
Arsenal transfers Out: £45 mil (Ozyakup, Vela, RVP, Thong)
Arsenal transfers in: £37 mil (Cazorla, Giroud, Podolski)
£8 million in profits.
Who here genuinely thinks the full-back positions, the DCM position and the striker position (Arsenal need a serious striker. Going through a season relying on Poldi and Giroud would be a joke) will be strengthened? Wenger has 8 mil profit. So to satisfy his performance-related bonus, he will have to make the board at least 5 mil. Leaving 3 mil to strengthen. Still...am sure there's some rubbish Franco-African languishing at Valenciennes or Toulous somewhere...
