Edelman in 2004
"Having got the funding through gives us significant transfer funds over the next two to three years and beyond. We will have much larger transfer funds available than we have ever had before.You saw some of that with the purchase of Jose Reyes, which was a transfer we could only have done with the funding arrangements in place. That is the start of what we can begin to afford on a net basis."
PHW in 2010
"It is our policy that we give the manager a transfer budget, which includes the ability to use all the money from player sales. He will get the money no matter how much we got from selling a player."
Edelman in 2007
"Arsène is not one to go and spend huge amounts of money on players. But if he wanted to do something of that magnitude there's no reason we couldn't get that to happen. We can do it. It's just a matter of what Arsène's strategy is. There is money available for Arsène in the summer, I think we've got to wait until the summer and see what he wants to do."
Gazidis in 2012
"We can pay bigger salaries and can invest more in transfer fees. How we make those decisions will be based on a manager whose judgement, over the years, has been shown to be outstanding. There’s nobody I would like to be thinking about those types of decision more than Arsène Wenger. We have got a lot of money coming in. We also kept some powder dry, so we have got the ability to invest if our manager finds the right opportunities in January."
Dein "There was always a budget for transfers with the new stadium in place. Nothing changes. We do have money available."
either these guys are all lying or wenger is the one that refuses to spend and not the board. but I dont know who to believe really , We will only be successfull again if we get rid of the 2nd rate "4th place is like a trophy" mentality
