I'm an Arsenal fan and can't really disagree with anything you have said gnasher, sadly. We're more of a business than a football club these days really.
Though with Wenger I'm undecided, I can't believe that anyone else could do much better with the resources. I'm not convinced it's him selling the top player, the troubles lie with the board I think. Saying that, maybe he is becoming a bit stale. I certainly would never want him sacked, he has done too much for the club and the English game in general.
If we ever had the chance to get Guardiola I would hope we would.
