Nothing Wrong With Me
Aliko Dangote was interested a couple of years back,don't know if he's still in the mix.
He said he had other business ventures to focus on but would be ready for Arsenal in 2021, not sure if that's still the case.

Yeah I mean we have spent a lot, enough to get into the top 4 100%, recruitment has been poor. But to push to that next level of CL success it would have to be a jump to the next level. For example since Arsène left we've spent £300M, Chelsea have spent £450M and City £370M but that was with an already stacked squad.
Realistically to get anywhere near the top and win a CL we'd need maybe £400M spend in the next two summers. Which isn't happening.
Is Ek going to allow something like this?

Yeah, they're going to spend a bit of cash this summer, for sureThis immense pressure only has two outcomes in my opinion. Kroenke's sell to Ek or Kroenke's spend a lot of money this summer to appease fans.
Oh Kroenke would love that, a bidding war.He said he had other business ventures to focus on but would be ready for Arsenal in 2021, not sure if that's still the case.

They aren't going to sell...ever?

Dangote at this point for me is all talk, people questioned Ek's bid being a publicity stunt but give Dangote a pass as he has more money.
This image is so big it must be true
It is the lack of ability that has permeated through the entire squad and dare I say, changed our DNA. I think the current crop are quite professional but not good enough. This leads to the standards bring lowered and the goal posts moved to justify this new breed. It's unacceptable. I don't want to harp on and call out certain players, but a few would have been booted out years ago or beaten up in training. If Ek takes over and Paddy, Bergkamp and Henry look the steady Eddie types in the eye and tell them they're not good enough, there's no way some fans will keep defending certain players at the expense of the club.I don't think many of the current crop lack the application or professionalism to be honest, they just lack the ability, which is why most people think the "Arsenal DNA" has gone, at least on the players side. If they were better at football I don't think this Arsenal DNA thing would be as big a question. It comes down to connection between players and supporters, and it's hard to get emotionally attached to a player that doesn't meet the standard we as supporters set for Arsenal players.
I think you'll always get situations where players are at the club to milk it dry, I dont think that scenario would just stop happening if we got our DNA back.
In terms of Woj, that guy was one of the most unprofessional players I can remember at the club. Not sure he is a credible example of a player that encapsulates application and professionalism, but I do get your point.
