Why Podolski is on £100k a week is beyond me. Arsenal needed to replace RVP and brought in two players that will never come close. Lets be fair, RVP had one amazing season for Arsenal so the truth is Arsenal never actually replaced Thierry Henry.
If Arsenal can get a guy that can score that amount every season then your laughing.
Santi Cazorla was the best signing of the bunch.
Those figures are ridiculous, the fact someone like Per Mertesacker is on £80,000. I hope for Arsenal sake those figures are completely wrong.
Quote:
Newcastle finished just 5 points behind Arsenal despite spending £110m less in wages! The Northern club has halved its wage bill from £74m to £34m over the past two seasons, yet still managed a top four challenge.

The above down to some amazing scouting and the fact the new players coming in were relatively unknown and could be tempted by £30,000 a week, when it comes to a new contract you can guarantee said players like Tiote, Cabaye, Krul, Ben Arfa, Ba, Cisse and co are going to want a significant increase.
