    Its the evening standrad though. They print just about every story running.

    Either way our squad is too big and somewhat bereft of real quality.

    Djourou, Squillaci, Fabianski, Denilson, Arshavin, Vela, Bendtner, Chamkah and park can all be culled to free up more money and bring the wage bill down.

    You really have to question wengers sanity giving almunia 50k a week. I mean it just amazes me. If he was the only championship quality player on those wages I could forgive him. But we have several players who arent good enough for the premier league on big money.

    And yes people Bendtnar is one of them. He is ****ing awful as a footballer.

    Well at the risk of sounding like an idiot I got my mate to look them all up on football manager. He was listed something around there. He said they usually get the wages pretty accurate.

    Are you seriously telling me that you assume players wages because of a computer game ?

    Haha. Why though. Its a simulator. Of course they are going to try and research the wages and put them in. I really dont see why you shouldnt rely on them. Just use the time and resources they spent on the research rather than doing it myself.

    Also Almunia was a first team keeper and I think he signed a new deal when he was number 1. So it makes sense he is on a fairly big deal.

    Do you think the manufacturers of the game ask Arsenal FC to provide full details of their players wages ?

    I am not saying its 100% accurate. I am saying its their job to try and make it 100% accurate and so it is fairly reliable information. More reliable than us just speculating or what is reported in the paper. I think you are being closed midned in your attitude to what I am saying.
