Wenger needs to be sorted out!

[daz]

How long have you been an Arsenal fan?

It sounds like you've been spoilt by several years of success.

Surely Wenger is the complete opposite to a myopic manager?

I don't think I've ever heard him say "you know what, my player did commit a bad tackle" - he has never witnessed the incident. It's not a problem specific to him but while overall he seems a likeable and astute man that is quite a failing.

I'm not talking about his vision in terms of spotting young talent or how to shape a club on a longer term, merely an observation on his lack of ocular acuity relating to matters on the pitch.

Ripped directly from The Times from Deloittes:

Arsenal recorded an eight per cent increase in their wage outgoings between 2005/06 and 2006/07, although in that season they had the highest surplus of cash after wages had been deducted from the club's revenue.
Arsenal also had the best stadium utilisation this season with 99.5 per cent of their 60,054 capacity used. It is just as well: Arsenal were the major stadium investors in 2006/07 with £34.2 million, while their pricing strategy this season did not increase on the previous one.
But the club have the third highest debt. At the end of 2006/07 their net borrowings stood at £268 million, with the second highest loans balances in the country. They are required to pay £19 million in net interest costs, but that is dealt with comfortably by revenues (match-day revenue doubled to £91 million in 2006/07 alone) generated by the move to the Emirates Stadium.
Also, by refinancing a £260 million loan, the club has reduced its annual debt service cost from £32 million to £20 million per annum. Moreover, the club is predicted to have an operating profit of £103.9 million over the next five years - the second highest in the country. Arsenal also lead Manchester United as the club with the most assets, put at £113 million at the end of the 2006/07 season.
Finally, according to 2006/07 figures, they bring in the third largest amount of money through television rights - £29 million.
