Wasn’t that a couple of years ago though? (Could be wrong) Maybe since Crocker has returned the policy has changed? As you say, playing week in week out at a decent level is better than playing U23’s. Not that I think Ramsay will make it here
-
Can't see him starting Sancho, when he's played 7 minutes the whole tournament. He's more likely to bring in Foden and drop Grealish or Saka. He may even bring in Mount as well and drop both.
-
Wouldn't be surprised if we go 3/5 at the back, to match up with them.
-
I won't believe until Noel Whelan says it's happening.
-
Didn't this happen with Salisu - seemed to drag and reports of Rennes signing him.
-
So he’ll get his move when Villa offer an amount of money they’re never going to offer? Ok then.
-
You said our players were going to get cherry picked by the teams around us that show a bit more ambition (any by ambition, we mean throw endless amounts of cash around) - but we haven't sold a first teamer with more than a year on their contract to anyone outside the top 4. So JWP, with 4 years left on his contract, is surely going to have to kick up a stink to get his move to Villa?
-
Wasn't Ronald also happy to stay for his final year, but Les in his infinite wisdom wanted him out because he wouldn't sign a new deal? Then Everton came knocking and both parties were very happy with the financials being offered (compo for us, wages for RK).
-
If they bid and we rejected it, do you think he'd try and force it through/ hand in a transfer request to get his dream move?
-
Do you think he is going to Villa?
-
I'm totally with you - if it was a top team then you can accept it, but selling to Villa would be ludicrous. Despite the crowing on here by some, take Grealish out of that team and they are bang average (as was shown towards the end of last season when he was injured). They've spent an obscene amount of money (£230m) just to finish 17th and 11th. I really can't see it happening. If it does then you do have to question what the club are doing.
-
Has he gone yet then? All I've seen so far is one-sided newspaper stories saying Villa want him. There's not been many players that have been sold/left in recent years that we didn't want to go (mainly because we've been utter crap) - of the one's that have, the contract situation has played a part (thinking PEH last year, Bertrand this summer - probably Ings and Vestergaard this summer too. Going further back, Clyne and Wanyama had 1 year left, Mane had two) - JWP has 4 years left on his contract, so we're not in the same position. I really can't see him going to Villa.
-
Again, when have we not spent all of the money received on players and re-invested? If you look back at our transfer business since Gao turned up, money we've received has been re-invested and spent on players. He doesn't put anything in, but he also doesn't take anything out. The problem has been we had a couple of years of buying complete sh*t, which screwed us.
-
£10-15m is much more realistic with his contract situation than the £25m the Venky's wanted. Think he'd be quite a snip at that price. I can only see us signing him though if Ings leaves, so if that progresses I'd expect Ings to be off at the same time. Thanks for posting these SuperSaint btw, always nice to see that you've posted in here as it's usually something interesting 👍
-
Sounds like he’s off to France - Nice and Monaco both interested. It’s a tough one - Bevois Valley or the French Riviera? Tough choice for the lad.
-
Absolutely - think he’d fit into a 10 role nicely here
-
Denmark needed that start - hopefully they can put events behind them now.
-
Sorry, jumped the.... Gunn... there (I'll get my coat)
-
The last African forward we bought in from Salzburg didnt do too badly though.. 😉
-
Would be a good signing for them - the sort we could have been making if we had got our business right over the last few seasons like Leicester have. Wonder where that leaves them with Edouard? Can't see them signing him as well as Daka, with Ihenacho, Perez and Vardy still around too. Maybe we still have a chance there?
-
Blimey, didn't expect this so soon into the window. Great news, good riddance - terrible attitude and just all round waste of a shirt. Hoedt, Gunn, Sims, Hesketh and Bertrand gone - hoping the likes of Long, Lemina, N'Lundulu, Moi, Obafemi and one of Forster/McCarthy to follow. If we manage that, must be pushing £500k a week in wages off the books?
-
Classic Arsenal, being linked everyday with someone new. Reality is they won't sign any of them. Must be season ticket renewal time.
