Shareholders generally put faith into the CEO etc to do that, can't get bogged down in every detail.
The expenditure of three times our previous transfer record in cash is not a detail in which one gets bogged down. Other than the stadium Ozil's fee may be the largest single bill the club has paid in my entire 26 odd years as an Arsenal fan.
I've explained my belief that this historic financial decision is likely to have filtered up to the 70% owner of the club, also a board member, for approval.
The public statements of the club about Kroenke's involvement in our transfers, and speculation by journalists in the press, both support my view.
If you don't think it's plausible ... then there's nothing left to add, because there's no hard information either way beyond the fact we signed a player and said some stuff about it.
