I think we are pretty much on the doorstep of winning something, but then we have players leave. We've also had some terrible luck since 2007 that Wenger had no control over, especially with injuries. But when I look at the market, I don't see many players who we could afford that would improve us immediately. There are a handful, and we often chase after them, but we aren't going to get established superstars. We do an excellent job of making superstars, but we never buy them.

We just have to trust that our youth and scouting system helps us, as we can't compete in the transfer market at the moment.

There are plenty of players that can make a big difference that we can afford. The problem is we only buy 2 or 3 each summer and then 1 or 2 of our best players leave that same summer. It is and endless cycle. What we need the club to do is nut up and drop some money on 5 to 6 good signings in one summer and then maybe we will win a trophy or two. That plus offering our star players a decent wage amount will keep everyone happy and then we would have the foundation to compete for trophies every year.
