Why hold on to Fabregas?

"unless you start acting like a big club and start paying the wages and transfer fees everyone else is playing, you wont win the league."

It CAN be done.

yeah i get the point about loan repayments rather than spending on transfers at the moment.you repay the stadium but then arsenal fans need to put up with not winning a trophy then for as long you're not competing with the rest of the clubs in the transfer market

it wil be interesting to see once everything is paid off, how arsenal act in the transfer market.. wil they spend big or spend wisely..

you're right no one has bottomless pockets but take chelsea. not everyones cup of tea. we adopted a policy of investing in playing stuff heavily. enabled us to win trophies which in turn increases our world wide exposure, increases our revenues. at the moment, we're not making a profit at all, but i dont see us being in the red forever with roman around, his aim is to win something every year. not ideal but it works to an extent.

what you've done is invest heavily on a stadium which has increased your revenues but severally hampered your ability to compete in the transfer market. you're playing the long game. we're playing the short game. i dont see wrong in either method to be honest.

It's good news for Liverpool though, becuase with our cracking signings so far, I think we might just pinch your spot in the top four!

LOSERPOOL cracking signings King Kenny have wasted more money on Average players than Raffa, 20m for Downing says it all realy,and as for the top 4 you'll be lucky to finish 6th with the players you've bought

Downing was a player uncle Wenger wanted but couldn't afford and Downing preferred Liverpool anyway.

Downing was someone Arséne was looking at as a squad player, but was deterred by the fact that an decent player from a midtable club cost more than any player in Arsenal's history.
