This morning the papers are full of a proposed £1.5bn take over at Arsenal by some Middle East consortium, with alleged riches that surpass that of Man City.
I'm sure that Levy and his advisers are doing all they can to attract investment, particularly for stadium development, but if this Arsenal story has any substance it will leave us in hurry to find investment to just put us in a position to compete with Arsenal, City, Chelsea and United.
With a shiny new stadium, located in London and a large and growing fan base, we will be very attractive to investors, but will there be any left with the substantial money and a long term strategy that puts the clubs interest as main priority.
