He had a net spend of 0 so their spending power had nothing to do with it. Wenger spent more in 1 year than they did in 6 to become competitive. It was the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool that forced Man Utd to start spending.

Broke the British transfer record repeatedly but yeah spending power had nothing to do with it!

Sold players that recouped the spending, just like you praise Wenger for.

It was all about net spending when praising Wenger, Ferguson did better doing the same but you don't want to give the same praise.

What is Ferguson's net spend in his entire time at United or even in just the time that Wenger has been there?

It is interesting when you aren't selective with statistics.

You are a complete tool if you think the landscape of English football is the same as it was in the early 90s compared to now.

They did rely on money though, they would have never won the league if they weren't (at the time) spending big sums.

Yes they did, but, I was referring to the last decade or so.

Arsenal and Liverpool started the big spending, then came along Chelsea and Man city with even bigger spending. Man united had to spend to keep up and win titlesl Arsenal were happy with top 4, claiming others buy the title when they were one of the first to do that.

It's not the same thanks teams like Arsenal, your team did what your fans now ridicule other teams for doing.

That is utter nonsense. Man Utd have been spending big for the last two decades, mopping up any quality English talent that is about. Romans takeover of Chelsea evened it up and then Man City blew everyone else out of the water.

Arsenal are not even in the discussion. Before Ozil, our transfer record for a player was about 17mill.

Arsenal spending big.

Go do some research, Arsenal won the title by spending more than anyone else.
