That's why I don't think Wenger is going to get his contract renewed after this year. Seems like all they care about is qualifying for the champions league, every year.
However the Spurs have gotten much better so maybe they won't qualify next year, it'll serve the organization right and make them take a profressive approach. If I was an Arsenal fan I'd root for them not to make it, just so drastic changes could be take place.

Wenger has that job for as long as he wants, the board loves him that's all that matters but I believe he said he'll look at the situation and decide if it's time to move on.

IMO the board only cares if they qualify for the CL. Financially, they can't keep up with Chelsea and Man City and haven't been able to with United. Their only hope is for a group of special talents to come up at the same time through their youth system and then they can decide if its worth it to make a title/CL push and add some big signings. Wenger has been doing his job pretty well if its to satisfy the board. Don't splurge on big signings, flip young players for more than you bought them for, and qualify for the CL to maintain your integrity and get that CL money.
But even if that happens, clubs like Real, Barca, Bayern, City, etc. will come calling and those players will answer for the prestige and/or $$.

This was supposed to be the season when we could finally compete, especially at the financial level. We had around 70mil, going into August, we now have closer to 90mil. We freed up our wage bill and got rid of majority of our dead weight but we haven't made any replacements. Even Wenger has said that our squad is thin. The big issue is that Wenger hasn't adapted to the modern football market. He only wants to pay for what he believes a players valuation is worth and not the market value. I believe it was Gazidis who recently said that [the market hasn't moved as we expected]. To why we don't take the initiative, I wish I knew. We may not have as much money as City, Chelsea and etc but that doesn't mean we still can't buy top players. We could have gotten Higuain and Gustavo. In fact, we should have. If reports are right, we just didn't want to increase our bids. We failed to get Capoue in Jan because his club didn't want to sell him yet. Instead of forming a pre-contract, I guess we thought we could do better but we haven't gotten anywhere yet.
As for the board, they certainly aren't complaining. There's no pressure from them despite being in good financials. But it's hard to see him staying, especially not making the quality signings when we have the money. He's a good manager but just needs the players

If Bale stays, and they play to their potential Tottenham can place pretty high in the League. Im not saying they will win, but they could cause the top teams some serious problems. Arsenal in particular need to step their game up or risk losing a CL spot

There's no way Tottenham has been splurging like this without the intent of selling him
Edit: but to play devils advocate they could be doing it with the belief that they can sell him for a similar price next summer, while securing a CL spot.

Na man, they weren't.
Thats def a fake tho, you can tell by the crest. However, sometimes the fake companies get the leaked design of the upcoming jersey and start making them asap.
If thats the template for the new kit, I like it. Wish we used gold instead of white tho like we have before.
