Your pathetic, like an old woman and broken record 😂😂
Your well suited to Arsenal 😜
Made amends for giving a stupid penalty away.

Just typical Stoke.
put a brilliant shift in and undo it all by a defensive error.
Matched you superbly in the midfield today and just not shown enough attacking threat.
Yeah but it cost you 6 yellow cards aswell and that's a silly red card in the last seconds, but with so many yellows it was inevitable that someone could walk!

Just for clarification.
Stan Kroenke is worth $7.4BN. Roman Abramovic is worth $9BN.
The difference is one invests into their football club, the other doesn't.

That's right, we don't use external money to buy success.
What point were you making in case I missed it?

Kroenke has about 60% of the shares, the other guy with over 30% is a ...............Russian Billionaire worth $14BN, Ooooops looks like some Russia money is OK :rofl:
That must be the same Kroenke that got paid £3million by Arsenal for advice. And the same one that's part of a $1bn development programme for LA Rams.
Sounds like he's happy to buy success for the American sports teamS he has but is happy to see Arsenal fade.

Does Kroenke invest into Arsenal?

I think the difference between the two is clear
How much an owner is worth is irrelevant it's how they spend the money in the club
Arsenal's money that is spent is money generated by the club itself - from tickets , prize money , sponsership etc
Chelsea owner 13 years ago boaught the club and then piled lots of his own money into the club using his own personal fortune to buy players etc - the club itself is in a lot of debt to the owner. They still run a little bit of a loss every year but now they are using money earned to spend. Chelsea owner personally financed Chelsea rise from Cup winning team to a league winning team. They aren't the only one and UEFA have tried rules to stop it happening but I have no idea what's happening with the FFP now
The issue that Sean misses a number of times is - the money that Arsenal have earned is there to spend - they have the funds to buy expensive players and give players the wages they need - but it appears that Wenger doesn't want to do that , why ? No idea - maybe he feels like Sean and it's not the right way to do it ?
The other point that Sean also misses is - Leicester , they showed that he is get enough good players and get the tactics right and the team motivated then you can defy the odds. The money excuse doesn't wash anymore.

So Chelsea have an owner who has used his money to make the Club succesful and Arsenal have shareholders who are taking money out of the Club as the value in their shares rise.
So in reality we're back to Trophy cabinets or spreadsheets.
