Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
At 19, William Saliba is still a center-back with a great future, but they tell me that having lost his parents in a short space of time has been able to affect him emotionally and that is why he may be having a hard time adapting to the @Arsenal.

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
To lose one parent can be devastating for some, depending on how close they are/were etc. Also we all as individuals tend to be closer to either the mother or father....augie wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 10:18 amBoth his parents ??

No matter the person's age when a parent dies (if they've had a good relationship) it can be terribly traumatic.
I'm sure AFC have brought in their Counselling Team etc.

He played for the u21 team against Gillingham the other night.

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I would have thought that keeping him close to The Arsenal bosom, would be best all round rather than a loan.
Get him involved in training and the team banter - we have plenty of French speaking players here, players of his own age, the club can keep a close eye on him - far better than a loan out to Watford or Fulham or whoever, where he will probably know nobody and start from scratch again.
If we can trim the squad by January -Mustafi, Kolosinac, Chambers, will give him some first team action, if not then the u21’s.

This season the league is pretty much a write off now anyway
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I agree. Speaking purely on a personal level and not just football if he's struggling emotionally or whatever then a bit of stability has to be a good thing rather than shunting him out on loan to live in a hotel or digs surely.

I'm not doubting any of that but was just wondering if he lost one or both of his parents this year ?
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
Kike Marin] 19-year-old William Saliba recently "lost his parents in a short space of time." Parents, plural.

A sus 19 años, William Saliba sigue siendo un central con mucho futuro, pero me cuentan que haber perdido a sus padres en un corto espacio de tiempo le ha podido afectar anímicamente y por eso quizás le esté costando adaptarse al @Arsenal
Mikel Arteta acabará contando con él.

Mikel Arteta will end up counting on him.

I honestly don't know if it was his Mother or Father or both, But his former team mate & co defender Fofana at Leicester is proving to be a real find.
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
Sad to read that about Saliba - what i would say though is that enjoying your work is an enormous benefit when something like that has happened in your life. Playing for the stiffs and not feeling part of it all must make the sense of isolation even worse I would think
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I have looked for confirmation about this story of him losing BOTH of his parents, and all I can find is a small number of pieces all of which track back to that one article from the spanish journalist - surely if he had lost both of his parents there would be several pieces/sources of it ?
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I’ve had a look round quite a few French sites and the consensus is, Marin’s post was bullshit. Saliba lost his mum but no-one has heard of his dad dying.
