Not so the whole problem with Mancity is they pay off the books, so they tell whoever needs to be told we pay Pep £175k a week but under the table and off the books there is another £300k a week that is being paid. Still waaaaaaaaaaaay too easy to cook the books with them thinking all is above board.
I saw the video, it’s conflicting.
If you watch first part you’d think he’s defending City but he then criticises how there was no FFP back when City and Chelsea got our players.
It does make me wonder if the whole “well-run club” was ironic from him.
Isn’t this the guy who said we should play the World Cup every two years?
Yep.
Isn’t that the same guy who gave Jack Wilshere 50 games in a season as 18/19 year old?
Not to mention Cesc…
:partey:
Suppose they have to find something for him to do. Can’t be like Fergie drawing down millions in appearance fees.
FIFA are not serious about anything they do other than collecting money.
I wonder if Wenger kept all of those massive coats he wore during his time at Arsenal to HIDE ALL OF THE FIFA MONEY IN, THE FUCKING WANKER.
Wenger to lead Fifa taskforce on player welfare
FIFA are constantly coming up with more ways of playing more games and more competitions in order to make more money for themselves yet are paying an ex manager to get players to play fewer games.
Behave
Reported. Moderators, do take action.
Was oh so principled when it suited him
Cast out from coaching and then straight aboard the money train
Even when coaching the fans were treated to the ‘we are paupers shopping in the pound shop’ whilst he was one (if not) the best aid managers in the world.
Bollocks
He would have earned more by leaving Arsenal
how is it bollocks? It is common knowledge…you been living in a cave? Even if he could have earned more it wouldn’t have been for long because if he did what he did with us he would be gone quite quickly. He was one of the highest paid managers in world football FACT!
It doesn’t matter.
Wenger choose to earn less than what he could potential earn.
Be grateful he did because Arsenal could only afford shit managers like Allardyce during that stage.
No manager of decent repute would have joined Arsenal knowing they would only get to buy cheap players for a decade.
Arsenal fans are such ungrateful fucks.
The hate for Wenger is a little grotesque, I’ve got to admit.
What specific period are you talking about here when we could only afford shit managers like Allardyce? I literally want you to give me the specific years when you think that was the case.
2006 to 2011
What changed in 2011? Is that when we bumped Wenger up to a wage matching the top managers in Europe? Or what?
Our commercials deals were renegotiated and we could spend a bit
