I'll certainly have to agree that the coaching during those matches was on the money, but.... funny mentioning money?

A player on £50,000 a week, on a 5 year deal, is a £12,500,000 commitment by a club over the 5 year period. Needless to say that a team full of players on similar contracts, with reserves and squad players warming the bench, brings about a committment of approaching £200 million over a 5 year period.
£100,000 a week players like Crouch & Defoe rockets this figure even higher.
Now, what is THFC's expected revenue stream over that same 5 year period.
Is it £400 million?

I ask, because if it is not, then you will not be able to play Champions League football (assuming you qualify to) come season commencing 2012, according to the new Uefa financial rules.
Needless to say that Chelsea would also be struggling with this. Liverpool too.
Quite how £350 million + would also magically appear to build a new stadium with is also one for you to enrol the assistance of Paul Daniels on.

Arsenal, of course, having patiently met the needs of financial constraint whilst still challenging for the top honours year in year out, would of course have no problems with Uefas new rules, nor would there be any issue meeting the 'home grown' player rules.
With TWENTY SEVEN of our current 35 man reserve squad being English (not British) there does not appear to be a future problem either. With the release of the land earmarked for social housing having now gone through, a further approx £35 million will be available for Arsenal transfer kitty during the next 2 - 3 years.

Now, what was we saying about a good manager?

I can't see the point of replying then if you can't say what bit is false?

I stand corrected, it's not 8. I actually counted 10 non English (I think some have come back from on loan) but I won't split hairs. Well done on pointing out that we only have TWENTY FOUR English players in our 35 man reserve squad.
