  • Poor commercial deals
  • Letting 5 of our first 11 enter the last 12 months of their contracts
  • Ornstein coming out today with the same old rhetoric of "we have no money"
  • A club who's fanbase are split on their manager
  • Mismanagement of wages with average players receiving premium salaries
  • Poor incoming and outgoing business
  • No real direction as a club, and especially through transfers
etc etc

We lack ambition. We don't want to spend the wages necessary for premium talent so we overspend on B grade talent in the hopes that they become good enough. They rarely do but Wenger's usually good enough to get us top 4. Although I think even he has had enough of this ****, and its getting to him and us missing out last year was the result.

Gazidis ****ed up the negotiation of the sponsorship deals big time. And then compounded it by not renewing the contracts of any of our major players. We are so cheap when it comes to contract and transfer negotiation. Imagine if we had offered Sanchez 300k 6 months ago, he would've probably signed by now and there very well may have been a knock on effect leading to Özil, Ox, etc signing up.

Sometimes I wonder if anybody out there has a memory. Spuds haven't won the League in over 55 years or the Cup in over 25. They have wasted fortunes in that time. For Liverpool, it's 27 for the League and more than 10 for the Cup. We are just having a slight dip. Three Cups in four years is actually really very good - if you are my age!

I believe we are. Look at how angry they make us the fans. They show no sign of ambition and whenever we look like we are changing we fall back again - 1 step forward and a million steps back, very disappointing. I used to laugh when people would say Arsenal is just a team that cares about making money but now I am starting to believe it.

Arsenal is like my wife (I am not married LOL - 25 years old - still young in my opinion) - Ill always love them and never want a divorce but trust me I am looking at the other ladies right now and thinking "damn, Id like to be with that" AKA I envy the other top 6 teams at the moment.

And like @GDeep™ has touched on. We focus on all this fluffy BS, wearing kimonos on tour, breaking Guinness world records and all these other ultimately pointless incentives.

What's the point of doing all this for the club brand when you get humiliated multiple times a year with hundreds of millions watching? United aren't an organic super club because Pogba dabs, they got there by winning.

The 4-0 to Liverpool and 10-2 Bayern probably did more damage to our brand than a thousand pre-season tours will fix.

Its isn't the lack of success that kills me but the lack of ambition. For the position we are in we should look to be kicking on. For me either we are a fully fan owned club that gives our fans world wide access to cheap ticket prices and success doesn't matter OR we are a for profit organisation owned by a businessman but atleast tries its best to compete at every level.

We charge the highest ticket prices in the world, I'd rather see that money go into player wages and transfer fees and actually competing rather than Kroenke's bank account.

Not long ago Liverpool were spending 36m on Andy Carroll, spent 19m on Stewart Downing and Brendan was doing 'Being Liverpool'.

Sp**s had 'Arry flirting with the English FA leading to his team imploding just before crossing the line, AVB and his high line, Tim Sherwood slating anyone and everyone each post match, all why selling their best players, one for a world record fee, and signed dross like Adebayor and Soldado for big wages/money.

Only thing that makes us take the top spot now is we continued to persist with Wenger and got complacent as our owner doesnt care about on pitch results.

Sp**s and Liverpool kept trying to get better, we didnt. We'll be outside the top 6 for a while once the dust settles this summer. The fallout will be pretty damaging and take years to fix.

6th most rich club in the world. the owner give the manager 50M to spend for competing for titles. that should tell you everything.

our clubs is full of lies they promise us to change they changed nothing they promise us that we going to buy quality players we didn't. the owner is not ambition and not care if we win the title or not. the manager is destroying his legacy by working with this owner.

Wait! You think this club actually has "winning the league" as an objective? Or a mission statement? If so, you're 3 years old.
