Arsenal did invest, they built a new stadium. Manchester United haven't invested in their debt, that concept makes no sense. The debt was put onto the club by it's owners to finance the purchase the club and in the last few years they've managed to reduce it via bond issues and the stock floatation. That isn't really investment. In fact United have 'invested' little. What they've done is continue thoughout using their massive revenue which has always been much higher than Arsenals.
United's income, wages and transfer spending are all higher than Arsenals. This isn't because 'they invested in their debt', it's because they've got a much bigger brand than Arsenal. Yet we've made inroads there, we're much more international since Wenger arrived. His era Arsenal team have gained massively in Asia and Africa especially. Only Liverpool and United are bigger names.

Anyway we know you think Wenger has lost it and I don't. No point rehashing the same argument again.
