Trouble is, it is all very well for everyone to be saying Wenger needs to be buying players. But Arsenal are at a disadvantage in 2 ways.

One, they do not have the money resources of City or Chelsea, but because of the name and the success they have had in the past prices go up when Arsenal come sniffing around.

Two, going without a trophy for so long means players will not want to go there. But that is a vicious circle. Arsenal need new players to win the trophies to tempt more big names to the club, but without trophy wins for 7 years players will not look at Arsenal.
