But with fans growing increasingly frustrated over the lack of top class signings, Wright has called for Wenger to ignore his transfer policy and spend what is required to give the Gunners a fighting chance of winning the title.
Wright said in his Sun column: “I understand Arsene Wenger is a man of principles, who refuses to pay massive fees for players he thinks are over-priced.
"Yet with the cash in the Premier League now, you have to splash crazy money to get your man, like it or not.
The board and Wenger have let Arsenal fans down again!
“But with Arsenal it always seems to be about missed opportunities. Like when they made that derisory £40m and £1 offer to Liverpool for Luis Suarez.
“If they’d made a genuine effort to get him, I’m sure he would have brought them the title. If it hadn’t been for dodgy defending, he’d have done it for the Reds.
“They were linked with Gonzalo Higuain for years but now he’s gone to Juventus for £75m at nearly 29.
“That’s the price you have to pay for people who can do the business. I can’t imagine what Suarez would be worth now, so they wouldn’t have lost money on him.”
