Wanna know why our players get sold to Man city? This is because our chief executive is a boyhood Man City fan, see for your self http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Gazidis since he's been at the club how many players have we sold to Man city?
But in all seriousness, I can't help but notice how out of his depth our chief executive really is, I can remember when he was fresh on the scene people saying he has experience with MLS, but in terms of working with a big club like ours he has no experience whatsoever and boy does it shows... Key players contract runs down before they are renewed, we loose key players every season, and can not sign big player of our own, we mess up any kind of negotiation we are involved in. To top it off Mr Gazadis is on a fine wage with bonus, I hate complaining but this guy has done nothing (absolutely nothing) of worth since he has joined us, please correct me if I'm wrong.
I realise he is not the only problem we face as a club but he is part of it, together with a board that lacks drive and ambition do they really not know we have not won nothing for 7 YEARS come on 7 YEARS! this is Arsenal ffs, where is the pride in that? Where is the pride in making up the numbers every year? And where is the pride in celebrating 3rd & 4th as if we have won a trophy? Where is the pride in celebrating our financial position when we do not spend on top players that can actually win us something?
What are your thoughts?
Mr Ivan Gazidis?

I found listening to him speak at that Charity ball thing really concerning, he does not seem to regard winning trophies as an issue.

No "I Am The ARSENAISATION" !
Be an AKB !
Everything is just perfect. We get great value. Wenger's 7.5 Million salary is cheap. I don't want us to win trophies as long as I can watch young players learn their trade playing possession football from left to right and we stay in the top four.

"Forgive me" for writing something thought provoking, I appreciate not everyone will share my opinion but no need for that tone

thought provoking? the only thought it provokes in me is "does this guy ever stop moaning?"

Well....I don't mean to moan I simply voice my opinion on the things that are so obviously not right with our club...hey but I guess in your world everything is fine infact we just went unbeaten right?

So Gazidis is a Man City supporter. So is Lee Dixon. So what?
The problem is The Board, not Gazidis. Particularly Uncle Sam.
Remember The Board turned down a proposed Rights Issue by Usmanov of £100million, because they were scared their voting rights would be diminished.
So they would have been -but the fact is, none of the Board were/are prepared to put money into the club for new players. Like Lady Nina however, some are only too happy to cash in on their shares.
They are a bunch of fuddy duddies who are more guilty than Gazidis could ever be, for lack of ambition.
Don't shoot the messenger.
