Just teasing. I dont dislike Arsenal, as a fellow econ major I have a soft spot for Arsene. The main difference in the clubs (besides the obvious) is that Bayern has been able to keep their best players, while Arsenal opts to sell them. But both clubs are profitable and successful. I can imagine it is very frustrating at times though. All of my IRL friends who watch soccer (like 3 lol) are all Arsenal fans

So it's kind of a hollow victory I know but I found this image on /r/gunners and thought it was pretty funny...

Not really. Last season Arsenal were only profitable because they sold assets. That's concerning because #1 it isn't good for future performance and #2 it means their costs are too high and revenue is too low. They also have huge debts, but have made up a ton of room in terms of match day revenue.

I sound smart, don't I?

No, actually a really intelligent banker had a great thread on /r/soccer (which of course went unnoticed for the most part, probably because it actually had good information and wasn't just a huge circle-jerk) where he dissected the financials based off of the Swiss Ramble's figures. He basically just did a Q&A with whoever was interested.
