In reading the recent statements of Ivan Gazidis, after appearing on a panel at the conference of leaders of football, which has been left with the impression that the perpetuation of self Arsenal model was the main concern, not the football. That and the idealization of the financial rules of fair play as a kind of magic wand. City to sell the stadium and jersey naming rights to an extravagant amount have shown that there are ways to circumvent the restrictions in the future.

Gazidis was responding to the real fears that Arsenal could miss Champions League for the first time in 14 years after its inception sad this season.

“We prefer to qualify for it, but we have a very stable model, which could not cope, but to do well and compete.”

These forums are the troughs, where rival organizations panelists gather to proclaim aloud their unique selling points to differentiate. Undoubtedly, Gazidis was influenced by the setting and came up with that bit of courage.

The Champions League according to Gazidis can not be essential for the survival of Arsenal, or even be so, but the money earned from description having been increased to the point that you can finance a series of transfers. Clubs charged with operating costs and high wages therefore hope that as a way of doing business, without borrowing additional money.

Arsenal model of self is based on maximizing revenue at every turn. The 25 million pounds to beat Udinese obtained to qualify for the CL group stage just paid for Mikel Arteta, Per Mertesacker, and Park Chu Young. Last year’s figures were well biased by company assets once real Highbury generated millions of pounds (156 million pounds to be exact). It jumped to first place in the Arsenal over Manchester United in the generation of revenue and profitability (£ 56m) in the Premier League. A clearer picture of the finances of Arsenal, which is much less flattering to arise next year. These figures declined to be offset by £ 65m in return for the transfer of players that will be hard to match in the near future.

External debt remains at 136 million pounds to £ 19m is paid as interest and in addition a wage of about 100 million pounds (less Cesc Fabregas, Samir Nasri, Gael Clichy). Arsenal has to generate around £ 120m to comply with these requirements. They rely on three revenue-generating performance to surpass that. Gateway of last season and match-day revenue (£ 94m), television and broadcasting (£ 85m) and retail (£ 13m) totaled just under 200 million pounds. An increase of 6% per year in ticket prices to inflate the figure next year.

A loose league season, with little chance of advancing to the Champions League can depress the three streams. Given the fierce resistance to higher ticket prices for the owners of the season and the AST, boring performances, it could lead to a marked drop in gate receipts and match day as disgruntled fans stay away. Fabregas and Nasri not mean fewer sales of shirts with the remaining RVP icon. The television and radio revenues will be successful once the Champions League is not presented as a factor in the equation.

The potential loss could be mitigated by exploring trade routes of Man Utd have done so in the last decade, which are now bearing fruit. Utd have capitalized on their success by opening up the market in Southeast Asia, ME, SA, and the U.S. to a huge audience. Now regularly engage in highly anticipated pre-season tours to be very lucrative. Arsenal have also realized its value a little late, after his tour of China and Malaysia was successful. Given the strong U.S. connections board of Arsenal, it is surprising that those who have failed to market themselves significantly here than a weekly summary of television. All future business ventures, however come with a warning. Arsenal need to maintain their presence in the upper echelons of European football to succeed to the fullest. The sponsors could get away or if they do not want to give sums of money to a damaged brand in a tight market.

Gazidis can fire the Champions League as irrelevant to the fate of the club, and do not really need the money as others do. If you think there is a firewall between success in quit playing field and a self-sustaining model then it is a grave error.

“I think the effective implementation of any system of financial fair play will be good for the fans. The country with the closest model to financial fair play is probably the relations of Germany and the fans are good,” said .

There are other ways to appease the fans. How many coaches has left Bayern Munich go since Wenger joined in 1996? Nine of 11 layoffs. They have won a CL title and entered the final twice. In this sense also have won nine titles in the Bundesliga and German Cup 7.

Arsene Wenger’s summer signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain did not sit well with a number of fans. Here we were in the midst of a midfield crisis could see all the quality sucked a single blow and Wenger blew 12 million pounds of high value in a proven talent. Where was the priority? I admit that an uncomfortable sense of skepticism in my heart deeply seated in dire need of a good colon cleansing.

Well, two months later, that feeling has diminished after OC to see what Alex can do in the field. Arsenal need someone who has a muscular presence and finishing compound. He showed against both Bolton and Olympiakos. One has to admire the way they swept the ball between the legs of a defender Olof Mellberg veterans for the first goal. Great first touch and an instinct even better score first.

Target first OC CL 18 and 44 days broke a record for Arsenal. This achievement is even more impressive given that it has been pressured to first team action without a learning period. This is an emergency situation with the team all bloodied and battered and missing a number of crucial parts. That learning curve has to be very steep. So far, OC, has been shown to be a quick study.

Be in the spotlight after these games. This is where mental toughness becomes absolutely essential in the maintenance of succumbing to that pressure. Even a veteran like Cesc Fabregas out showed the wear of an unwanted burden on him. Some of the OC companions in the team has flirted with the promise, but not quite at the level of potential. There is an opportunity waiting to be taken.

Southampton teenager Alex Young Oxlade Chamberlain completed his move to Arsenal, ending months of speculation. The Gunners have signed for an undisclosed amount, reported that about 12 million pounds in advance, with 3 million pounds in addons. The registration fee is received by Southampton for a player. Arsenal also announced on their official website that Oxlade Chamberlain had signed a contract for a period.

Oxlade-Chamberlain, who turns 18 next week, is considered one of the most promising players in England and was hired by the Saints until 2013. Young, who scored nine times last season for the South Coast club, is often compared to Theo Walcott, who coincidentally also moved from Southampton to Arsenal early in his career. Manchester United and Liverpool were reportedly interested in signing Chamberlain, but the policy of blooding young talent Arsenal said they were always ahead in the race to sign him.

Oxlade-Chamberlain becomes the third summer signing from Arsenal after Carl Jenkinson and Gervinho. First, the Gunners’ Premier League game is against Newcastle next week.

A £ 10 million offer reported by the Arsenal center-back Phil Jagielka Everton has been denied. It’s £ 2 million less than last summer, Wenger offered by a defender he supposedly admires. One wonders if the Arsenal work on a scheme of EBITDA to football players to get an offer so low. And here we go to a crisis in the form Sandro Rosell wants to hit a couple of million because of the hamstring of Cesc Fabregas.

With Jagielka shows no inclination to move to Arsenal in reality there is little hope for the Toffees will move from 20 million pounds you want for it. Besides increasing the transfer in this area suffers from Man Utd cough with about 20 million pounds by Phil Jones, a sub-21 perspective. Realistically, the best Arsenal do better if they want a quality central defender if it is Jagielka, Gary Cahill and Chris Samba. Or start looking elsewhere outside the European market, where even expensive Jacques Tweedledee will cost in that range.

Wenger scouts in the Copa America are lucky to be sent back glowing reports of Oswaldo Vizcarrondo in Venezuela, which has excelled in this competition. He is a year younger than Jagielka to 27 years old and about 3 higher. “By its height is shown that moves fast (referring to Brazil, Paraguay, Chile and matches), deals with momentum, reaching all air balls on set pieces at both ends. Then there’s the X factor with its physical and competitive spirit that was going to be in a good position in the Premier League hematomas. It will come in third the price for the manager Arsenal budget conscious. Now all you need is a chance. Vizcarrondo and Vermaelen sound like a good match.

Gold Cup on Saturday after the ceremony conducted by Fernando Fiore game Univision Spanish brought mostly on charges of insulting diatribe by the U.S. goalkeeper. He realized that a light like an intruder chopsticks, when everyone else is using forks. Or something.

Of course, this was a signal to opponents of the immigrants to go full force by which the economic problems in all the illegal and threatening the final solution to the issue. Mexican-Americans, who constitute the vast majority of final observation supported by their country of origin so vociferous, were denounced and told to return to his “shitty little hell.”

What was fun to see behind your veiled racism was that most of them cared little for “fags play soccer” and “cunt.” These thugs have not supported the U.S. national teamany day or any Sunday for that matter. Most had not heard of Howard and his rant used as an excuse for your faucet SB 1070 talking points.

Yesterday, Howard apologized for his *#@&#@~ but not the sentiment behind it.

“When this happens in your hometown is particularly insulting. We as American players were invited to participate in a postgame ceremony at a party in Los Angeles and we are there trying to show good sportsmanship and yet the ceremony was going on and we are looking at each other trying to understand a word. “

“It was, to be honest, humiliating, and I firmly believe that the organizers of the tournament we have not been put in that position.”

First, the U.S. team has a number of Hispanic players like Juan Agudelo, Alejandro Bedoya and Carlos Bocanegra. There is also José Francisco Torres, who opted to play with the U.S. and was seen in the World Cup last year. Everyone understands the language. Second, none of the major networks carried the final Gold Cup and was left to carry on the Univision standard cable. Fox Soccer Channel is the only way out other outdoor game, but it is a first class service. The most important football tournament in the U.S. participates in the outskirts of the World Cup yet, ABC, CBS and NBC chose to clear in the Gold Cup this was the real insult. Third, you can fix the last line of Howard.

“It was, to be honest, humiliating, and I believe should have done better and we have put in that position.”

The real humiliation was on the court, not the ceremony after the game. The man, Tim. On the other hand, a little technicality here. U.S. has no official language. All these rappers are conveniently forget that, and yet here they are carrying banners saying, “Do not Tread on Me”, promoting individual rights. Doublespeak.

Cristiano Ronaldo does not like the tactics of Jose Mourinho, based on a string tactics of the drug, which is argued to fins opponent in the exhaustion and then comes the pumping stroke.

Except CR7 is exactly the type of player suited to the style of Mourinho’s counterattack, because he likes to run hard and straight to the defenders, used his Stepovers, and unleash his shot in an instant. 0 to 60 in a nanosecond. It brought him success at Manchester United. No patience or deception in the tiki taka Barça. It would establish a permanent pout realize that serves as one of the nodes in well-developed parallel scheme of Barca.

On Wednesday night I had the perfect opportunity to practice their skills counterattack. Carles Puyol in the makeshift left-back and 33 years, an era Studebaker to protect an elegant Bugatti purring. He could have made the club as playing a man down, even with service growth retardation. And yet, there was hardly a time when CR7 is the best of veterans. His set pieces were horribly out of blasting the wall or spoon into the stratosphere.

At the other end of Leo Messi was on his destiny with greatness as usual.

Mourinho’s tactics have become a convenient punching bag for the unimpressive performance. But it’s all part of a blame game is played from the manager down.

His wax figure lookalikes that is - in the “Wax Museum in Madrid.
While it seems reasonable lookalike Villa and Villa …

Arsenal captain has a much poorer prognosis than expected and could be out for three weeks. It’s a muscle injury, once again. Is a definite departure for the apparatus of the League Cup with Theo Walcott and both remain in serious doubt for the return match Barca.

More updates on the status of Robin Van Persie (hamstring) and Laurent Koscielny (back) will be available on Friday.

With these injuries Wenger has to juggle with your team to play both Birmingham and Barcelona. But his priority is to ensure that fit a squad for the return of the vessel to maximize the chances of progression of the CL.

Much has been made the first significant opportunity in silver since 2005, but Arsenal are capable of pulling a victory on Sunday without four injured players available. Andrey Arshavin seems to have regained some of its old joie de vivre that would pose problems for Birmingham. We hope that Tomas Rosicky scored a goal will give a boost to your appetite for goals.

Arsenal must keep superiority midfield with Samir Nasri, Wilshere Jack and Alex Song. On the defensive end, had quite a trip Squillaci impressive against a physical Stoke attack but inert. Birmingham Stoke mirrors its dependence on set pieces, but his lack of speed and midfield creativity have led to the fewest goals (25) scored in the Premier League. Yet they have managed to fight very few teams of high society to a dead end.

With Fabregas, RVP, and Laurent Koscielny healthy Arsenal can press its advantage of an additional goal against Barca missing their starting center back partner Gerard Pique and Carles Puyol through suspension and injury. The presence of a healthy Fabregas and Robin Van Persie could seriously test a defensive line re-jiggered. The Dutch, in particular, should be given every opportunity to recover given its history of fragility.

Koscielny was a great team with Johan Djourou to neutralize dangerous speed merchants in the Emirates. His return will be crucial for Arsenal is to support what will be an overwhelming show of force at the Camp Nou.

“It’s a great honor to have 15 consecutive victories to equal the record set by the Real Madrid of Di Stefano.I I’m sure some team the same thing or if it happens one day, but it is something that no one has managed for 50 years “said
