Transfer Discussion Thread

Yeah, I think you're well off the mark with White with all due respect, Brades.

White is a terrific defender. Losing your spot to Saliba (potentially the best CB in the world, or very close to it), and Timber (one of the best RBs), is no sleight on White. He's very, very, very good, and as Glen said, would instantly improve the right hand side of the bulk of Premier League sides.

Personal opinions for you. He wouldn't improve our right side of defence which is currently very good. There's a reason we're one of the best defensive teams in the league already. We don't need White and the rumour was started by some blogger who claims to be an insider.

Hand of Arsenal?

His hit record is excellent and has inside knowledge at the club, not one of those clickbait randoms.

It's an old report from January. White was mentioned in reports, people with sources at Everton said they were just speculation. He knows nothing.

Oh, so the Everton sources know everything but the Arsenal ones know nothing.

Got it.

The Everton sources are journalists, not some guy who goes unnamed on Twitter.

If that’s where the reports originated, quite likely there’s something in this story. I’ve seen his name mentioned on many accurate sourcing of information. Even last summer Ornstein was referencing him in the “as first reported by….” section of his tweets. Fabrizio did similar too from memory.

Yup, HoA works for Arsenal too I believe and obviously has incredibly reliable information.

Don't think he's ever been wrong.

Always a first I guess

"So they can have Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea"

Olise was always a weird rumour.

No chance we get him. Would cost way too much. We will definitely be looking for cheaper options for the wings.

Yep, it’s a stupid rumour. Bayern only signed him 18 months ago and put him on a five year contract, he’s not going anywhere. Especially considering the season he’s been having.

Yep Bayern would NEVER sell. He's been elite, only been there 18 months as you said and is under a long contract. Just no chance. Dont even know where the rumour came from.

Someone like Yan Diomande will be more realistic.

Dont they want €100m for him?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up being 70mil pounds

88m buyout clause

Ben White walks into most XI's in the Premier League. He's a fine defender, great crosser, and composed enough on the ball to play the modern inverted fullback role.

No buyout clause apparently.

One of you two are lying.

Pretty easy to find out of he does or not.

I'm not accusing anyone specific of lying. But it has to be one of you.

Diomande will cost a lot but Olise would cost far more.

I am not sure what teams he wouldn't start at.

I guess Everton is one.

Chelsea when Reece James is fit

Man City

Arsenal

Everton and Newcastle are debatable

That's probably it.
