Wenger obviously doesn't share your thoughts on RVP, if his statement earlier in the week is anything to go by. RVP has physically been a late developer, it's only last season that he actually physically looked the part. IMO he's got a good 3-4 years at the top left him in. > Secondly the idea that by spending (and how much > are we talking about here? a bit more? a lot more? > Man City levels?) will give us success is a > nonsense. Agree, it would be foolish to try and keep up with Citeh and Chelsea, they are unique situations and hopefully FFP will eventually level the playing field, but do you honestly think Arsenal have even spent within their means? Look at the last minute bargain basement panic buying that went on last pre-season. Hardly smacks of a long term game plan.
