Transfer Discussion Thread

Kyle Walker to Burnley for a few million by all accounts.

Maybe they should all play their part and lower their wage demands, so they can find clubs willing to buy them.

I think they'll be wanting a golden handshake from you guys to make up the difference.

All they’ll get is a golden shower.

This feels like an Estupinan is off signing.

 

[Cruyff14]

This is crazy, I don't know how Inter agreed to this.

He's an excellent player.

A good deal for City. Reported £5m transfer fee and offload his £10 million in wages. At 35 he's not PL quality. At 37 he might ok in the Championship with Burnley.

Will still have plenty of opportunities. Would imagine as odegaard understudy.

If Odegaard doesn’t pull his finger out he might lose his spot to him

Madueke agrees personal terms with Arsenal, wonder what sort of fee we'll get.

Aston Villa apparently after Jackson.

Kyogo to Birmingham. He was dynamite under Ange, was only fair under Rodgers slower possession based game, presuming Davies is a Rodgers disciple given how long he was assistant manager to him. Birmingham paying 10 million for a 30yo is chips in, it was too much money to turn down for Celtic from Rennes.

Sounds like exactly what we need, a line hugging LW to replace Sancho. I think with Madueke going and being set on the right with Neto and Estevao we'll chase another LW, hopefully Fofana and not Garnacho.

Gittens data does look really good.

 

[TY24]

If we sign Madueke I’ll be furious.

Would have to be a very low fee for it to be worthwhile IMO.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

jd2010 just one of many Arsenal fan remarks along the same lines with Madueke.
So why should we be happy to accept such a player. We let him go first, don't go back to an ex.

 

[chef]

Madueke isn't a bad squad/backup player, he's just going to probably cost a bit to bring in.

 

[Cruyff14]

He's been given number 22, he will sign on IMO.

 

[largebus]

Nico Jackson to Arsenal next summer it is then.

That's my main issue. He's not best XI for us, why are we going to pay top dollar for someone who doesn't move the needle much outside of providing some bench depth (which we are lacking admittedly, but is he really the best solution at that asking price?)

If we still bring in a striker and a LW, it will be a bit more palatable. Signing just Noni on his own will leave a very sour taste in Arsenal fans mouths.

Don't give them ideas please
