Sidenote, but why is Sutton seemingly so disliked in England? I've seen a lot of animosity towards him.

I always liked him personally, especially during his time at Celtic. He was one of few strikers who were actually meaner to English defenders than they were to him. It was funny seeing self-professed hard men complaining like little babies around him.

I'm quite happy with as many people in the game as possible, even Sutton, being as brutal and clear as that. He is absolutely spot on too.

Should have uses the 'irony' emoji! Chris Sutton's not exactly out there in the media and well known. I want others - other Jose - toe say it. Lee Dixon did in a milder tone during the Villa match.

No concrete transfer news for us in last two, three days.

With the season fast approaching it is concerning.

Minimum for the rest of the summer should be: sign Lyon striker and Musafi. MINIMUM.

Let it out Dules. Breathe in .... aaaaaannnnnndddd relax. It's all over.

First van Persie, now Mourinho. Can't wait to see who you'll be quoting next from the conveyor belt of cunts.

Wenger at the presser today

'we are working very hard, buying calms the fans down'

Well played.

He is taking a dig at fans dules. You seem to have missed it.

Full quote and question:

on if fans will be happy to hear that (we are ready to spend money)…
"Buying calms the fans down, but it is important to spend but even more important to spend it the right way."

It's not a dig at all. The 'working hard' bit was a part of his answer to a completely different question.

I think its a silly and disrespectful way of looking at fans by wenger, considering how it has been with our transfers and squad

EDIT:

It depends on the context, the fact that he follows it up with 'it is important to spend' suggests to me it's not said flippantly but I've not seen it live and can't watch from work.

Yeah well don't waste you time. Its not worth it.

Don't think he was mocking the fans at all. It was a generic statement not necessarily aimed at Arsenal fans. He is also right in that managers and clubs need to be above the impatience the fans can show.

In this case though Arsenal fans have shown a lot of patience. He needs to address squad needs. If he doesn't buy, the players already here need to give results. If they don't, he needs to be accountable for being wrong that there weren't better players available.
