Senderos,Lauren.
Add Hleb to that list!
Would Ashley Cole, Vieira and Henry count as having gone on to do better things?
not Vieira or Henry for sure...Cole i suppose, but that was a cunt's move, no? hardly blame Wenger for that one.
Ross might have a pretty good point here historically, but i think the tide is changing for Wenger. Players now want to move to win, and he can't hold onto talent. Even Ade tbh could have gone onto bigger and better things. They've yet to replace him.
cheers
I'll give you Cole but Wenger didnt want rid of him. That was Coles choice. Vieira and Henry had peaked at Arsenal and never really got close to the form they showed at thier respective clubs. Hleb has been awful as well. Isnt he at Birmingham these days?
I do expect Nasri to buck that trend even if he doesnt end up with us. I just think Arsenal and Wenger have historically done very well and getting players out once they have peaked.
