Arsenal really need to shift their mentality next season. Stop being grateful just to be taking part and realise you’re a good side that should be winning every game you play. Need to develop that ruthless winning mentality like City have.

Arsenal’s outgoing transfer business in the last 4 summers has shown how huge the value of the academy is. £120m pure profit raised for Willock, Balgoun, ESR and Eddie; all of whom were pretty much surplus to requirements at the time of their departure.

FIFA is a registered charity and FA’s are nonprofit organisations, not businesses, so the revenues the respective competitions generate is irrelevant (hence why equal pay is only demanded at int’l level). These are all things that you are demonstrably unaware of @Tgarratt10 .

@afcjxmes Would even argue that getting to within 2 pts of the T4 in 20/21 was a successful season considering the goal going into it was simply to get back into the T6 after consecutive 8th finishes. We also hit a 90pt pace from December to mid March before injuries derailed us.
