Does anybody actually have a idea to amount of salary he has picked up over the last five years or so?
I do find it absolutely incredible that we still pay him anything at all...........
Doesn't the club and/or the player himself has a significant insurances for these that pays at least some of the salary costs and treatments?

nope. insurance only pays the club if the players career is ruled over.

A journalist asked during yesterday's press conference when we can expect him back, to which - I sh*t you not - Wenger answered angrily, "give him time"....

We've been waiting on Diaby's return longer than Christ's.
