compare our deal with nike and compare it to a middle table premier league and youll see that its not good, liverpool ,chelsea, arsenal, mutd got way better deals BEFORE our deal, just imagine in 5-6 yyears our deal will be like a big fucking joke .
m'vila? how can I include him? are u kidding me? Mbaye won't be here. After we sell taider,alvarez,guaro, we will need many players i really doubt we will get equal quality for them .
ffs 80 million euros is not even our total of salary, does this team make any money at all? And exactly this, we wont improve our squad we will just sell , arsenal like (best case scenario)
Well, no shit our deals are worse than the Premiership, but thohir isn't a wizard. Serie A (from a marketing and commercial perspective) is worse than the Premiership. I don't expect us to have sponsorship deals to match them. The premiership's revenue is more than double Serie A.
If you expect Thohir to pull deals like City, Liverpool, Chelsea, etc, out of his ass then you're being completely unrealistic. What I expect - and indeed what we do have I believe (anyone have firm figures?) - are numbers that put us at the top of Serie A. And, I BELIEVE, they do.
What do you mean how can you include M'Vila? I think I'm missing something here.
Take our current squad
Handanovic
Carrizo
Andreolli
Jonathan
JJ
Campagnaro
Ranocchia
D'Ambrosio
Nagataomo
Kovacic
Alvarez
Guarin
Kuzmanovic
Hernanes
Taider
Palacio
Botta
Icardi
we have 18 players already. Add in Vidic, the new keeper, and M'Vila takes us to 21. 22 if we assume MBaye. Now, Taider Botta will be gone for sure, Campagnaro probably too, so that's down to 19.
Rolando/Mustafi is 20.
So we only need a few more players, its not the 10 more you make it out to be, and its certainly not 10 new first team starters either.
What? 80 million euros was less than our salary last year. By offloading the expensive players (Milito, Chivu, Cambiasso, etc) we've reduced probably 40-50 million euros already.
I'd be fucking delighted to be in Arsenal's position, to be honest. Arsenal's failing is their MANAGER, not their financial structure.
