The mismanagement of our move to Emirates is unbelievable.
We failed to leverage on our stature as a marquee club playing in the most modern stadium in 2007 and thereafter.
A missed commercial opportunity due to failure to follow-up on the French Spine to continue building a competitive team like what Ferguson did for two decades. Ferguson started with 18-7 against Liverpool titles but eventually overhaul Liverpool with 18-20 titles.
Arsenal FC?
For all his successes, the final verdict is that Arsene Wenger is the primary reason of Arsenal Decline to what Arsenal is today.
Silent Stan allowed Arsene Wenger to oversee the rebuilding of a Budget Arsenal to pay off the Emirates Debt forgetting a simple lesson – no success on the pitch, no commercial revenues growth.
In the future, as early as next season, it will be the likes of Man City, ManU, Liverpool, Chelski, Newcastle and Tiny Totts who will be challenging titles and Top-4.
Arsenal will be just a feeder club to marquee clubs with their greater financial resources to tap our players anytime of the day.
Forget Mikel Arteta.
Arsenal FC is just a steppingstone in his career to rise to the top of his profession and will be most likely to return to Spain after his contract expires in 2025.
Will he stay knowing that he is whipping a dead horse with lack of financial resources to support his ambition to build title-winning teams, setting up a dynasty like Ferguson and Shankly and his Boot Room Boys?
Our Decline started with FFP when Arsene Wenger worshipped for decades as our saviour to compete against financial doping. Sadly …
