Although I agree with the general theme of your post, I can't concur with that bit. In fact, getting £16m for Song is among the best bits of business Wenger has ever done!! The mistake was in not getting that 'true holding midfielder' - which Song never was and never would be good enough to be.

You forgot keeping Diaby SteveO
I'll never forget that mate - its that little light at the end of the tunnel that keeps me going i.e. the knowledge that the new age Invincible will be back to lift the gloom
Hes absolute dog shit Im afraid- Im so sick of seeing this prick in an Arsenal jersey. He must think a lot of himself to give himself a name with inho on the end. In truth he isnt even good enough to be a footballer.
