Hehe...Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has admitted that he treats the club’s money as if it was his own.
The Gunners boss, who is notorious for being shrewd in the transfer
market, also confessed he is nervous about making mistakes when it comes
to buying players.
Last summer, Wenger bought only Petr Cech from Chelsea and has also
made one big-money signing this summer – £30million for Swiss midfielder
Granit Xhaka.
In a new book titled Game Changers: Inside English Football by Alan
Curbishley, Wenger said: “I personally believe the only way to be a
manager is to spend the club’s money as if it were your own, because if
you don’t do that you’re susceptible to too many mistakes.
“You make big decisions and I believe you have to act like it’s your
own money — like you’re the owner of the club and you can identify
completely with the club, because if you don’t do that I think you
cannot go far.”
