Quite Angelito. When fans think they are not being listened to, they will protest. When emotions run high it is obvious that protests will turn nasty at some point. it makes no diff if the protest is Arsenal fans, Scousers or Mancs.

You lot get it, one dumbass clearly doesnt. Like Arsenal fans have protested and things didn't get nasty. Arsenal fans were fighting Arsenal fans not too long ago.

It certainly wasn't nasty when we protested at the Everton game. (despite what Karen Carney says)

43m on Partey
72m on Pepe
45m on Xhaka
30m on Mustafi
50m on a 3yr contract for a 31yr old Auba.

240m pounds.

Five of the biggest wastes of money in our history.

You'd have to be a f***ing idiot to throw more money after money spent that badly.

Think we were better off before Kroenke Jr. started making decisions. Should be shipped off to some other port in Stans business empire.

Will be interesting to see what the owner does now that the club has lost all the European income. If we are no longer a money making business, might it be time to sell?

He appears to be quite happy to accept mediocrity.

Clubs who can occupy the middle places in the PL without too much effort don't cost much to run and don't need much attention compared to those at the top or bottom. He can just sit back in Colorado and put his cowboy boots on the table.

Telegraph: Ek’s pursuit of the club is expected to continue into the summer and the Swede has made it clear that he is ready to play the long game, along with backers Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira.

Ek’s interest was never dependent on the club qualifying for Europe next season and the size of his first offer will also not be impacted by their absence from the Champions League.

Financial experts have estimated that the Kroenkes have spent around £900 million on Arsenal so far, meaning that a £1.8 billion offer would give them the opportunity to double their investment.

I hope Ek realises that Kroenke has a history of playing the long game. He played a very long game with Usmanov.

I think the fans might be in for quite a shock.
I have a feeling Kroenke is going to boost his profits instead of spending his money on players - for a few years.

Top-10 Most Valuable Football Clubs as of 2021:

1. Barcelona
2. Real Madrid
3. Bayern Munich
4. Manchester United
5. Liverpool
6. Manchester City
7. Chelsea
8. Arsenal
9. PSG
10. Tottenham



For comparison, this was how the top-5 looked back in 2011:

1. ManU
2. Real Madrid
3. Arsenal
4. Bayern Munich
5. Barcelona



In 2013:

1. Real Madrid
2. ManU
3. Barcelona
4. Bayern Munich
5. Arsenal



In 2017:

1. Barcelona
2. ManU
3. Real Madrid
4. Bayern Munich
5. Manchester City
6. Arsenal


Reveals how poor of an owner Kroenke has been. Not that there needs to be anything said about it.

When he became majority shareholder at Arsenal, we were the 3rd most valuable football club in the world. Today, a decade later, we're 8th.

The genius of Kroenke is also such that he's convinced folks that we can't hire top managers anymore, nor do we have any intention to go for top players.

He's happy with mediocrity and as long as we finish mid-table, I doubt he'd be ruffled.

Yup, me neither, I was all in favour of the Usbekistanian, but this t**t I was never a fan of. We the fans need to do everything we can to get rid of him.

How can we be falling so far behind the other teams with regard to value and the share price be increase so much?? Does that even make sense?
