Well how much of an effort did Arsenal really make to keep him? Same with Ozil. They might have made token offers just to say they tried, but world class players don't come cheap and Arsenal are, well, cheap. I'm also not sure I'm defending his character, but I also find it strange, as I mentioned before, that any player gets labeled greedy or a mercenary. If it were about winning guys should be willing to take £10,000 a week to go sit on Barca's or Madrid's bench and collect trophies a plenty. These guys are all greedy mercenaries, and more power to them.
