This truly is a new era of banter from Arsene.
This is just about the most disgraceful football business decision in our recent history. After being fed a litany of financial responsibilitiy for years we basically spend £35 million pounds and, a year on when prices have exploded even further, loan him abroad so that his value will gradually diminish to nothing.
And no-one is responsible for this of course.
Absolutely, a loan deal for a player we paid 35m for is an absurdity. We loan on the basis that we don't actually want them and they can't be shifted, or for young players who need experience. If he wants out for personal reasons, I understand that, but like you I think he has to be sold and a replacement sought.
It's a ****ing shambles tbh...
'Catalyst for change' we were told. We were not told that missing out on the CL meant that we didn't have a pot to piss in when it comes to transfers.
It must mean we have someone coming in. VVD, Seri and Draxler is the only thing that'll appease me. And that shouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility given that Ox is off to Chelsea as well.
