Finnegan Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 4 minutes ago, AjcW said: He's not worth 50 million with 5 years on his contract let alone 4 months until euro teams can get him for free I mean that's absurd. He absolutely is. But granted if we get anything more than 30 this year then Rudkin/Whelan deserve knighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taupe Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 Sorry, where has the £50M figure come from? That must be total blocks. That said, some report suggested we'd "slashed" it to £38M, which I also thought was wibble, but then you start to ponder the two together (once is happenstance, twice is coincidence) and wonder if there's something muddying the waters behind the scenes. Maybe there is some kind of weird contract extension clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les-tah Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 I honestly just want rid of him. He strangely gives us no value anymore on the pitch anymore and is just holding the team back. Give praet a chance if Rodger’s can forgive him for shagg*ng his dog/wife/daughter or whatever he’s done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they had a cockoff & Brendan came up short !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristianity77 Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 Why would Arsenal consider him an expensive option when he wil be available for free next summer. Newsflash Arsenal, if hes available for free next summer, he will likely be picked up by a team much better than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanSP Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 Just realised he was given the captain's armband when Albrighton went off on Tuesday. Odd choice given he could leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea. I suspect he can wait on making that decision. I'm just making a differentiation here between YT and WF. YT has been very professional. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 26 August 2022 Share Posted 26 August 2022 This cultural phenomenon of throwing as many shit transfer rumours around as you can, hoping some of it sticks and that people notice you all for the satisfaction (?) of being referred to as "ITK" is beyond ****ing weird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesterlad Posted 26 August 2022 Share Posted 26 August 2022 If we were that hard up would we have turned down between 150 and 170 million in transfer fees? Maddison. Tielemans. Soumare and Fofana? if we were skint. We would have a fire sale and we are not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
