Arsenal icon Emmanuel Petit has questioned the club's decision to sack Arsene Wenger and replace him with Unai Emery following the recent dearth of transfer business at the Emirates Stadium.
Barcelona midfielder Denis Suarez was Arsenal's only signing during the January transfer window despite numerous injury concerns in their defence. Petit spoke to the Irish Independent's Kevin Palmer and asked what the point of firing Wenger was without a plan to finance the new manager's project:
“You look at the money Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City spend and unless you join them and put the cash on the table to compete for the best players, you are going nowhere.
