This was Arséne Wenger's Arsenal strongest Starting Lineup when Abu Dhabi purchased Manchester City in 2008.
In 2008, Arsenal Football Club were valued at £600m and Manchester City valued at £200m.
Over the next 6 years, Manchester City had signed 50% of the outfield players from this very Arsenal team on massive wages, unaffordable to Arsenal.
➖ Gael Clichy
➖ Bakary Sagna.
➖ Kolo Toure
➖ Emmanuel Adebayor
➖ Samir Nasri
All financed by illegal financial doping.
When you hear about Premier League teams preparing to sue Manchester City for damages if City loose their appeal, you will think those clubs are just jealous of City's recent success.
It's not about being jealous, Manchester City really stepped on other Club's toes while building their own history.

كانت جهود الشيخ ربيع رحمه الله كثيرة في الرد على الأباطيل
ولا أعلم من أبان عن حال سيد قطب خصوصا، وجماعة الإخوان المسلمين عموما؛ بمثل جهوده رحمه الله وغفر له،
فأثره على الشباب كبير جدا في التحذير من غلاة التكفير، ودعاة الخروج والتدمير.
رحمه الله وغفر له

Al-‘Allamah, Sh Salih Fawzan has been appointed the Mufti of Saudi Arabia.
May Allah preserve him and protect him, and may Allah grant success to the rulers of this blessed land.
Alhamdu lillah!
Istiqaama is being upright upon Tawheed and Sunnah without Ujb (self amazement) thinking you are better than others. Allah is above everyone. May Allah forgive us our shortcomings.
The Grand Mufti and a Noble Scholar of Saudi Arabia, the Head of the Council of Senior Scholars, Shaikh ʿAbdul-ʿAziz Ibn Abdullāh bin Muhammad Ālush-Shaikh, has passed away.
May Allah have mercy upon him, give him steadfastness in his grave, forgive him his sins, and enter him into the highest levels of Paradise.
He was from the descendants of Shaikh al-Islām, the Reviver of the Religion, Al-Imām, Muhammad Ibn ʿAbdul-Wahhāb (born in 1703 and died in 1792 CE, rahimahullāh).
"King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman have extended their condolences to the family of Sheikh Abdul-ʿAziz, the Saudis, and the wider Islamic world."
Ibn al-Qayyim (d. 752H) stated in Iʿlām al-Muwaqqiʿīn:
"The scholars on earth have the same station as the stars in the sky—the bewildered ones are guided by way of them in the depths of darkness. The need of the people for them is greater than their need for food and drink. And obedience to them holds a greater obligation than obedience to their mothers and fathers according to the text of the Book [of Allāh]..."
Al-Fudayl Ibn Iyaad, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
Neither hajj nor taking up positions during battle, nor Jihad is more difficult than restraining the tongue.
