Because Wenger lacks vision and is tighter than a kitten's clam.
Looks like Man Utd might have their goalkeeper sorted.

What have you read that makes you say that?
Wow Frank, just how do you stay so ahead of the game??
He is the game.
more that in early reports yesterday it was that a deal was very close to being done for De Gae , and then it comes out that the deal close to being done was for the Dane Schmeichel doesnt even rate as Utd quality
Also lots of denials from De Gae's club that a deal is even in progress (which doesnt mean it wont but just less likely especially if a gk has just been signed....I wouldnt be surprised if Utd do actually promote PIG to no1...if VDS doesnt extend another year)
No need to be so sarcastic - given the state of the deal and yesterdays press releases from both sides it was a reasonable post to make here

Lloris simply isn't very good, again it is mostly for France I end up seeing him lately, but he came out and made a bunch of mistakes against England, in the world cup he looked an absolute joke and recently in the CL he was making mistakes all over the place. Maybe he was good a couple years ago but right now I'd stick with Fabianski over paying out big for Lloris, Lloris looks like a marginally better Almunia at the moment.
De Gae is FANTASTIC, against the best teams around last year he was pretty much man of the match, he's barely played so far, hasn't had close to a full season and is as cheap as he'll ever be. For a keeper whose 20, has played 30 leagues games in two seasons, helped win a Uefa cup final, saved a penalty and helped them win against Inter Milan in the Super Cup.
He's by far the most promising 20 year old keeper around, by far the best keeper under 24 around and probably has potential to be the best keeper in the world for the next 15 years. Arsenal should be getting him.
No idea what your point is, again, Pires is 37, he could be coaching at Arsenal till he's 65, its probably fair to say a fair few youths will train at Arsenal in the next 30 years, and attackers. This is ignoring we don't have a single winger anywhere near the same class as Bobby, nor that we don't have lots of younger players who can learn from him, nor would his experience go amiss in the dressing room at half time in tough games.
Worth pointing out I guess that Campbell was well above average for us after he actually signed, played in some big games, played well, and hence my surprise Wenger was dumb enough to not pick Pires up under the exact same situation as Campbell.
