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.

Arsenal could spend 100m right now

The inflation is set in the game Mark. Whether its Arsenal going in or not the inflation is here and its going to stay. we just have to deal with it to the best of our ability as in negotiating.

It is hard to prize away talent from other clubs whom are competing but there have been players available, still are too.
Arsenal have been said to be very very slow completing deals. Its either differing over players or looking at the value. Arsene Wenger is on a mission to bring the market into control, well he wont pay inflation he'll take it but wont pay it. the guy is truly nuts. hes tried to get the January window closed. He wants the window to be closed before the season fixtures start. The summer window drags out for a good reason, so clubs can tweak etc. the January window is there for patch up.
Back in the day when the club had David Dein, the late Fiszman etc. it was a circle of different strengths which all worked together. at the moment we have narrow vision, 1 vision and thats it. the club needs to be shaken and that will only truly come about if Dein is brought back and Red&White (Usmanov) is invited onto the board.
what is happening at Arsenal isn't in the best interest of Arsenal. Its in the best interest of the old dinosaurs. the tradition wouldnt be compromised by Usmanov or Dein. its the dinosaurs egos that would be compromised.
sorry for venting its just schoolboy. on the pitch and off it.
