As Chelsea and Manchester City will tell you; if something isn't working, just throw money at the problem until it does. Arsenal have taken this to heart in their "socialist" wage structure.

Arsene Wenger, still searching for the trophy to untangle that weighty albatross from around his club's sweaty neck, is now earning upwards of £7 million per year for managing the north Londoners. Not bad for a socialist paradise - it puts his total earnings in the eight years since his last piece of silverware at an impressive estimate of £56m. Maybe he just needs an extra tenner to get it right...
