Arsenal Finances

[akhil]

Whilst you are right about match day revenue hurting us more than other clubs, I think there is enough evidence to support that match day income has become less important with time.

In the second article it shows that more than half the teams in the premiership were in the green before match day revenues are taken into consideration. This includes teams habitually in the bottom half of the table too.

I think clubs are not as broke as they are pretending to be. Arsenal will definitely feel the effects more than others though for sure.

Paying CL salaries for a not so CL quality team is probably equally as important as having no match day revenue I suspect. Promises to restore some of the duct pay if we made it back into Europe leads me to believe this.

Are there figures from a more recent year? Does that take transfers fees into account? The clubs with the bigger stadiums also drive the transfer market to a certain extent. One of large profits could be driven by +ve net spends on the transfer market.

The wages as a % of matchday income is an interesting one. That kind of gives a more accurate view I think. But again the ones with the lowest share are the ones with the smaller stadiums and outside of London.

Reducing our wage bill and CL qualification can't come soon enough. Selling Kolasinac, Mustafi, Sokratis, getting Ozils £18m off the wage bill really needed. That should be roughly £35m a year. Of course Aubas wage has increased, Partey sounds expensive, Aouar won't be in low wages. Challenging times.

On the bright side, these losses could reduce Kroenkes reluctance to sell

Not really challenging times when we finally sell few of those next season our wagebill will be in much healthier position when Özil mustafi Luiz all contracts run Down that'll clear more than 500k a week but first this summer Sokratis Kola Torreira has to go to cover both Partey Aouar wages.

This is from yesterday but I haven't seen it posted anywhere. We've borrowed £120m from The Bank of England. Seems odd when we have a billionaire owner!

He hasn’t put a penny in yet bro. He remortgaged the debt in the summer. Without European football we’re on the slide downwards.
