We’ve also seen teams who are struggling and fill their ranks with loans, including us when we went down to League One. Fulham did it the other year too. It rarely works, though 2 loans is hardly filling the ranks tbf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if you are skint and you really need some fresh options you don't really have a choice but to utilise the loan market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Finnegan Posted 30 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 30 August 2022 If we can get Tielemans out tomorrow for 20 and Aouar in for less than that and on less wages, combined with replacing Fofana with Faes that could be a terrific bit of business late on. Should also give about 20m-ish to bring in a RW. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taupe Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 From https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/youri-tielemans-arsenal-leicester-transfer-24887140 Quote Tielemans is understood by football.london to be in a position whereby he would accept a move to the Emirates Stadium for free next summer. Though if a rival made an offer this summer, Arsenal would make a move That'd explain the situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is he going to lower his salary on say a five year deal when next year he can get loads more as the club won’t be paying a transfer fee?

We can’t be accepting this as a club. His head has been elsewhere for a season already. It would be mutually beneficial if he was moved on asap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a year left on his deal and hasn’t mentally been committed for over a season. This has led to poor performances and lots of mistakes. Will be forever remembered for that goal and he’s still a quality player but its not working for him here anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the club won’t sell below their valuation then it tells us we aren’t that short of cash. The whys and wherefores of whether we should or shouldn’t on a football level are different 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t agree, we aren’t going to get a quality replacement for £20m and I’d rather have another season with tielemans in the team hopefully giving us enough quality to avoid relegation right now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 Selling Youri would leave us dangerously short of creativity and quality in CM. I hope to God that we have a plan in place to get in an appropriate replacement if he leaves suddenly in the next 2 days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are we worrying about losing him on a free next summer when we could be relegated by then? If he leaves today or tomorrow we will not replace him with somebody as good, so his departure would by definition weaken the squad. Given how vulnerable we are, why would we deliberately weaken ourselves further just to avoid losing a player on a free further down the line?
