It will change nothing except we might lose a key player such as Cazorla if we finish 5th.

I really, really hope we will spend this summer.

you never know, especially with Bale.

This. What he's doing atm is unbelievable.

We have to spend this summer, we have no choice.

Chelsea under Mourinho will spend big and be contenders and then you have the Manc clubs who will be up there.

Unfortunately it will be another battle for 4th but we need to try and seperate ourselves from the likes of spurs and pool

What I want for this summer is that we build a team that will comfortably get top 4 and win the FA cup. We will really be able to push from there.

Why did some of you let the chaavs give it large on here?

I told some of those plastic chelsea fans a few home truths.

Arsenal should be in the CL League no matter what.

You destroyed them RGK.

I think you've written a good article Troy with some valid points. However, ask yourself the following:

In reality, are we more or less likely to spend big without the Champions League revenue? When you include the money for qualifying, prize money p/game and the massive 25+ Million (depending how far you get) from the TV rights.

You mention dropping out sparking a change, this is possible; but knowing our tight board and the years of promises about spending big in the summer, which have never come to fruition. Do you really believe they will spend more in this situation?

Thank god we didnt drop out
