After reading some ridiculous comments on some other websites, I found it amusing to see what some Arsenal fans (hopefully children) were saying on the comments section. After reading a solid piece on ANR by Nigel Phillips, it seems as if Wenger has about £25 million to play around with INCLUDING wages. Sorry to disappoint you fantasy fans but...that isn't that much.

Here are two samples of what I read on another site from the comments:

Sample Number 1:

Sample Number 2:

"Huntelaar would be a good signing Villa would be better but what about both?? We have all heard AW has a war chest to spend and with the sales of players like

Two words...OH MY.

Sell Van Persie? Villa, Hutelaar, Richards and Joaquin? Mass clearout? This was just two samples of it, there were SO MANY around but I found these two quite comical to say the least. Some Arsenal fans are living in the world of "Championship Manager"..whatever it is called nowadays.

£25 million is not going to be that much if we anticipate losing Flamini on a free and considering how much of that total would be taken up by wages/signing on fee's for new players. Wenger said "one or two" quality players, hopefully in the form of Sagna would do us well next year. No big star names will come in, in my opinion...call me a pessimist...but big star names, even if they are young like most that are mentioned on that list...have never been Wenger's style. The closest we came to that was a young chap called Jose Antonio Reyes who is chilling out in Spain right now after being bullied at Old Trafford.

Next season we will have a young man called Carlos Vela at the club, with a lot of hype around him. Let's hope Arsenal fans can be a bit more patient with this youngster. Flamini may be on £60k a week at Juventus, Hleb may be licking ice creams in Milan and Lehmann will be mad back in Germany. It won't be the first time that we have lost quality players for little money or on a free, but we have to see what Wenger has in store for us.
