Nasri said he felt the club was going backwards after Cesc left, and didn't want to sign a new contract after. RVP actually posted a letter on his site saying he disagreed with Wenger with how the club would move forward.

They both wanted trophies more than money, and got what they were after.

Almost everyone who leaves Arsenal wins trophies

But Arsenal started splashing the cash right after that season. Why couldn't Wenger just convince RVP when he was going to spend the cash anyway? I remember reading that RVP's wage demands weren't in line with the socialist wage structure at Arsenal where piss poor players earned similar amount to star players...

RVP wanted to go to either Juventus or United, and get a trophy before he was past it. No amount of money would've changed his mind, so Wenger accepted the 24 million from United (Juve offered 8 mil)

So how much did Arsenal offer him? I don't think we were that great compared to Arsenal in terms of quality of starting XI so I don't see why he though he'd win more with us

I don't know how much Arsenal offered him, but I do know that Ferguson lied to RVP about not retiring. Besides that, all we could guarantee was 4th place while Ferguson won trophies regularly. It was an obvious choice for him

RVP screwed Arsenal over considering he was injured for majority of his time there, but the signings Wenger never installed any faith that Arsenal would win any trophies with the signings he made after big players left, it was a good signing for all, MU got their 20th title, Arsenal got 24m and didn't have to pay his wages after he declined.

Typical Juve. They offered 19m or something for Alexis :lol:
