what a mess
heres what he said
Speaking at the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference in Boston he said: “For me, being an individual owner, I have to have some sort of reality involved.
“If you want to win championships then you would never get involved. I think the best owners in sports are the guys that sort of watch both sides a bit. If you don't have a good business then you can't really afford to go out and get the best players unless you just want to rely on other sources of income.
“Over there [in the Premier League] it was sort of like 'well, we've got guys from the Middle East, the oil price is over $100, they can spend anything they want'.
“But the problem I saw with all of that; those people can lose interest. It doesn't mean that they will, but I sort of threw that out there: 'What happens when the Middle Eastern family, this thing's costing a lot of money and they decide to go home?' I said what really happens in those situations is the fans get hurt because the players get picked up and paid if they're good, the front office gets other jobs.”
For all you lot thinking I've "misinterpreted" Kronke's words...do a little research on this fella's clubs he owns in the US and you'll see how chock full of title winning ambition this guy is!....you've been warned, this guy will be comfortable as a cat with warm milk if Arsenal NEVER wins a title ever again....as long as the cash keeps flowing!....marry that mindset with the average "big club" where winning stuff is absolutely essential and you'll eventually see how dangerous the mindset of Kronke and the present board is
