Arsenal’s annual wage bill moves ahead of Chelsea’s for first time in more than a decade
Exclusive: Recent arrivals of Alexis Sanchez, Danny Welbeck and Mathieu Debuchy mean Arsenal are now third behind Manchester clubs in Premier League salary spend

Historically, having a high or the highest wage bill usually means that team will win the league.
What part of the game is it having a high wage bill but being in the running to win nothing

The headline makes for good wumming though. We won't know the true cost of either squad until next fall when the actual numbers are released. For now, we are relying on reported wages and such.
Does it please me as an Arsenal fan to know that our wage bill and Chelsea's could be closely correlated, while Chelsea gets more bang for their buck than Arsenal does? Nah. But it's nothing to throw a hissy fit over. I'm more pissed at the listless performance that the Arsenal players put forth in Dortmund than the amount of money they are making. I'm more pissed about winning 2 games out of 8 so far in PL/CL play. I'm more pissed about the formation and tactics put forth by Arsene recently. The wage bill is just a talking point. It's the quality of football that matters to me.
Then again, I'm in America, and I don't pay for tickets to see Arsenal in person. I can imagine that the average Arsenal season ticket holder would see a headline like this and

and a couple of years ago, chelsea and man city would have been at the top of that chart. clubs get great talent via three methods. one, a great academy that produces players who are worthy of first team football on cheap wages. two, buying prospects from other academies and clubs before they become known qualities on the open market and their price tags shoot up to superstar level. three, buying the close to finished/finished product from other clubs, luring them away with large wages and the promises of winning trophies.
chelsea and man city have already put big amounts of money out into the market. since their players were bought previously, the amounts of money they had to put forward is less than the amounts that a team would have to put out there right now. the inflation of money into the football market means you're paying more for talent, proven or otherwise, than you would 2 years ago, 4 years ago, 10 years ago.
so basically.....

Ain't nothing wrong with spending money. I don't think that's arsenals problem at all. I just think it's notable that they're spending money.
