  Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has rejected a lucrative offer from Bayern Munich.

  The Daily Mail says Bayern have been pursuing the Gunners boss for nearly a month and finally made their move by inviting him to name his own terms to replace the outgoing Jurgen Klinsmann. The approach came from Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and included a pledge of enough transfer funds to compete for the world's top names.

  But in a stance that underlined his quest to take Arsenal back to the top after just one trophy in four years, Wenger declined.

  Is wenger stingy manager never want to spend big money on player. Even give him 100million, he also die die haolian don't want to sign. Arashavin deal, wenger also want to bargain. 18 million cheap liao, he also don't want to pay. Now it proves he is great bargain at 18million after scoring 4 goals against Liverpool.

  he's a shrewd manager.. because he knows if the major backers pull out, the club is doomed..

  imagine if Abramovich decides to stop playing Championship Manager in real life?  Chelsea will go the way of Leeds..

  same goes for LFC with Gillette pulling out... and MCFC with the arabs pulling out.. the club will die..

  he cannot afford to put the club into serious debt which they are totally dependant on the people and not the club..

  he's probably the only manager in the football world who does that..
