Disgruntled but hopeful

Every year its the same story for Arsenal fans all over the world when the summer transfer window opens the fans are filled with hope and optimism but as the days pass by we become disgruntled,with the pre season tour about to start and not a single first team signing I don't think any fan can remain positive,the transfer of
Higuain also seems unlikely with Real asking for more money than the amount that was agreed in 'principle',before the transfer window opened nearly all of us thought that Arsenal will make some major moves and although we are 'close' to signing Higuain,have made a bid for Suarez and Bender,enquired about Fellaini but we have nothing to show for it,sometimes I get a feeling that we want to fail in these half-hearted attempts or our chief negotiator is just not capable of closing big deals in the past we have missed out on a number of good players due to our inability to close deals.
In the past atleast our UCL spot was not in danger but for the past two seasons it is under threat from spurs,I have no doubt that Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke does not even care if we lose the Champions League spot to spurs who will be an even bigger threat than the last two seasons with Bale seemingly staying and unlike us they will strengthen their team,I never expected outrageous amount of money being thrown at transfers from Arsenal as I know that we have to be realistic in our spending but one thing I know for sure every top team needs a world class striker and if we do not buy a very good striker we will be left behind by other top teams.I have no doubt that Wenger knows his top priority should be a striker but I am afraid that due to our inability to close deals there will be no good players left in the transfer market,but in the end I still think we will make some major moves this window.
Am I being naive to think that this will be the transfer window that Arsenal fans have been waiting for only time will tell until than keep your chins up.
