Bild ran a story yesterday saying we've offered him €20m a year and Bayern won't match it.
Yes. The worry is the difference between what we've offered and what they've offered isn't massive.
We are actually offering him crazy money, desperate money. It will come back to haunt us, especially if he gets injured. It's oligarch-owned club type of offer except we all know our owner is the most penny-pinching oligarch in history.
I would snap their hand off at 65million. We can use that to put towards someone like Mbappe that will be around for years to come. Alexis probably has 2/3 years left at the top.Quote:

Of course we need to balance the books this year with missing out on CL football. However, if we ship Wilshere, Berrellin, Giroud, Szezney, Walcott out then that will bring in the best part of £100million in and free up a lot of wage budget.Quote:

Bellerin would be a loss, less of a loss if we use a back three but if we ever revert to a back four we wouldn't have a proper right back in our senior squad. I have to assume Debuchy and Jenkinson will be offloaded asap.
Do they both still play for us? Thought Debuchy was back in France and Jenkinson playing for West Ham reserves or something. Hector won't want to sit on the bench. Perhaps we can convert him to a left back.Quote:

I'll show the petulant wee **** where the door is.
If that's supposed to be Bellerin you are taking the piss, I presume. We should also keep Sczcz if Ospina wants to move on. Giroud is a good squard player.Quote:

Another win for Arsene...going to make a mega profit on the sale and he's got the replacement lined up i.e. Belgian Henry
Of course, 20k less per week but success and Vidal, Thiago, Lewandowski etc.Quote:
