He's given us clues about this many times, especially when he brings up Real madrid and the chances he had to join them.
IMO there is little money to spend. Wenger knows it but doesn't want to tell the fans incase they lose faith completely and he's also under pressure from the board.
People still using money as an excuse !
The recent failures hasn't been because we have no money!
I really want our club and Wenger to succeed but it looks like his stubbornness isn't getting us anywhere!
I just don't know where we go from here? All I can see is us going downhill. Where is the saviour? Wilshere?
We need money.
there is no money to spend.
I remember in aug/sept.
When gazidis was asked weather their would be more signing in jan, he said
"Will we spend more in the next window? No. No more so,’ said the chief executive. ‘We are always under pressure to spend and recent results have not changed that.
‘Every club have the temptation to think money is the answer to issues. That is what drives the cycle of spending that you see in the game and that is by no means always successful.
‘It relieves pressure for a while but it builds long-term pressure in other ways. We will continue to act with discipline to make sure we have a good short and long-term future.’

So thats it NO MORE SPENDING!!!!!!!!!
What could Wenger have done better with our squad?
Players like Ramsey, Walcott and Djourou are not good enough to start in a team vying for the top four.
Wenger doesn't just say we are in a troubling position and then do absolutely nothing about it.
So thats it NO MORE SPENDING!!!!!!!!!

ever?
wenger has been let down by the board. the players, past and present have let down wenger - he has made some bad signings and bad decisions. we have been unlucky.
all contributing factors to our recent decline.
i don't understand why people think wenger is too stubborn to spend money when he spent a significant amount pre emirates. it seems quite obvious he isn't being backed financially.

Play Rosicky or Benayone more often, given OX more of a chance.
Get a RB or LB on loan
Get a striker on loan
He always keeps with the same formula that just isn't working, still plays underperforming players!
Who would loan Arsenal a half decent striker? Or right back for that matter?
get Fabregas back till end of season
I am one of Wenger's biggest supporters but I'm not deluded enough to pretend he hasn't made mistakes, but who hasn't. The difference is if you're City or Chelsea and you make errors you spend another £30m regardless, with our budget we have to live and die by our mistakes.
Our stingy spending has coincided with sugar daddy owners splashing crazy money, we have no margin for error because of that. People can say this is an excuse but imo we've been unlucky over the years, key moments went against us. We seem to be cursed with injuries.
Still I think Wenger is the right man. It's the toughest time he's ever faced so of course people will write him off, but people are underestimating his ability and he'll come through it.
Wenger has wasted 40 million on Gervinho,Park,santos ,mertesaaker and arteta
You could have bought Cahill,Ba,Parker and Samba for half the money wasted
The above statement is horribly deluded. Arteta is an excellent player, we did not need Parker, as Song is perfectly adequate and has the potential to surpass Parker. Gervinho is adjusting, you can see in games such as the one at City that he causes problems, he was only 11 million anyway. Cahill was 18 million last summer, and is overrated and English anyway. Ba is completely injury prone (failing alot of medicals) and is a huge gamble (which has payed off for Newcastle to be fair). Samba is unproven and no better than Mertesacker, who had an excellent game against United.
'wasted'. are you mental? gervinho is good and potentially great. mertesacker is adjusting well to the league and is very good CB regardless. arteta has worked wonders for the stability of our midfield. santos has done well when he has featured. park, well, the less said about that signing the better.
we definitely could not have bought those players for half of that money. you're an idiot.
Mert and Arteta have been very good, so dunno what you're on about there. Gervinho has been hit and miss but he's the tyle of player who will be much better 2nd season. Santos as well started to look a quality player. Park we've haven't seen much so can't judge really.

Your just jealous you spent over half of that on one player who hasn't done jack for you!
Those 4 players have done well so far (not park)!
If they're all so good what's the problem then?
we have other players apart from those 5 some of those are crap.
world ends in december anyway
11 months to pay off my debts then.
If they're all so good what's the problem then?
===========
What 8bit said and no other options when 11 players get injured, but after 7 seasons of injuries you can't use that as an excuse anymore, you need to account for other players to cover.
Wenger doesn't want to get more players in because he thinks that if they are all fit the squad will be too big, but that hasn't happened for 7 years now!!!!! Time to change tactic!
we have other players apart from those 5 some of those are crap.
I thought Rasputin was brilliant
stop sending players who want to battle on loan. Frimpong is committed. Lansbury did well for us.
Play these guys !
