How great would it be if Usmanov would make a takeover next week. Give wenger a one last go with Mahrez, Griezmann and Gimenez on board ? ^^
Kroenke has made an extremely good investment, though.
When he bought the club in 2011, it was worth 1,200 million, according to Forbes, this year it's worth 2,017 million.
Not sure how much he bought the shares for, but he would make a tidy profit if he'd sell now. Shame there is no need at all to sell for him, since more money comes into football every year.
Don't know, but probably not as much as the value increases every year.How much does he lose though with the pound weakening?
He probably won't be too worried about the short term currency fluctuations. He has a huge portfolio of business interests, I imagine the bulk of which have USD denominated earnings. He's more than likely happy with some exposure to GBP. And if he's not, he's probably hedged the risk away at some point.Don't know, but probably not as much as the value increases every year.
The Rams stunned the football world on Monday afternoon, firing long-time head coach Jeff Fisher just a few months after handing him a two-year contract extension. Just last week, Fisher confirmed he signed that deal before the start of the 2016 season.
At least the old owners were Arsenal through and through.
Pretty ruthless by Stan today. May be a sign how post Wenger Arsenal managers will be treated.
Its whats normal. Wenger and Ferguson are exceptional cases. After Wenger the major focus should be on football which means we may need managers changing to evolve frequently.Don't worry, this is what fans want. Your Mourinho type of a manager, someone who can come in, win and then leave right after.

I'd say Bayern and Barcelona are the best example of evolution regarding management and how the club should be run.
The rumors re Wenger as Sporting Director with a new first team manager sounds perfect to me. I rate Wenger as the best manager in terms running of the club along with Sralex and with transfers. We get a new modern manager to coach the first team with focus mostly on football. Could be sexy.
I mean like a coach in charge of all the footballing matters under Wenger's watch who focuses on little bit of everything. The coach free of other responsibilities about clubs finances and all that. Transfers too may be. Like how it is at Bayern or Barcelona. Coach has a say on transfers in terms of advice and player profiling but mostly focused on the footballing matters rather than anything to do with how the club is run.Is Wenger focusing on something else than football or am I missing your point here?
