Arsenal must keep Henry's promise

Chelsea fullback Ashley Cole has taken a swipe at Arsenal's board over an apparent lack of ambition in the transfer market.

In his autobiography, My Defence, serialised in The Times, Cole wrote: "For things to turn round at the Emirates Stadium, in my view the board will need to put its money where its mouth is and invest in the team, just like it promised Thierry (Henry) it would do.
"I've not seen much
evidence of what I think is needed by way of investment in the recent transfer window and, however shrewd (manager) Arsene Wenger is, Arsenal need to build a new team and a new future - not just a new stadium - or they will be letting down their players and fans."
