Net Spend..........

Also their squad is made up of very cheap, but good imports and youth system players.

Wenger is the man.:-|

We'd be in League 1 If we'd only spent the money the scum had. It is remarkable and extremely worrying If we're thinking of building a new stadium

We need stability. Changing the manager every year means we have to change the whole squad. Selling players at a loss because the new manager wants his own players in. Hopefuly we can keep Harry for a couple of years and see the net spend drop.

In my experience, their wage bill is usually quoted as around double ours. Puts a very different complexion on things. I'd like a sunk costs league- how much each team writes off each year on the footballing side- we really wouldn't be ahead of the Goons on that measure, would we?

Value per se is in the eye of the beholder. We may have paid the most, but those players have not plyed to their individual and collective potential or else we'd have more to show for the outlay than a League Cup.
