We're tied with Liverpool as the club with most golden boot winners in the Premier League.

Henry 4x, van Persie, Aubameyang.

Liverpool's winners are Owen 2x, Salah 2x, Suarez, and Mane.

Does it matter?

I completely lost any faith in any of these processes when that ballot farce took place with Chips Keswick.

The ballot papers were collected from the shareholders and put in front of him, and he simply ignored them before passing the motion that had been presented by the board without even reading the result of the ballot.

Just heard that the club have announced to all staff including casual workers that they will be paid in full for the remaining games of the season if it is cancelled.

Arsenal's executive team will waive more than a third of their salaries over the next 12 months in response to the ongoing coronavirus crisis.

The Gunners also said all other employees are to be paid in full, and the club will not be using the government's job retention scheme.

Private discussions have taken place with the players "around the potential financial challenges ahead".

Negotiations on wage cuts are taking place on a club-by-club basis.

The decision came after talks aimed at a collective pay deal broke down without resolution.

The Premier League proposed a 30% pay cut, but the Professional Footballers' Association says that would affect tax contributions to the NHS.

Arsenal say this is "one of the most challenging periods in our near 134-year history" adding: "The potential financial impact is significant so we must be responsible and act now to best protect Arsenal from what might happen in the months ahead."

Gunners fans will receive credits or refunds if matches are played behind closed doors or are cancelled entirely, while casual workers will be paid for the remaining four home matches, and again should the games be rearranged.

English football has been stopped indefinitely because of the global pandemic with no date scheduled for its return.

This is going to make the club revert to its 2006-2014 policy of not paying big wages and developing kids to sell on. I expect in the next two years we I’ll offload everyone over 150k a week and double down on the likes of Saka, Martinelli and Guendozi.
