I read an article yesterday that said that the chavs contacted AFC cos word had got out that he was offered to premier league clubs by AFC. I said yesterday that pep's cone boy doesnt care where he goes as long as he is gone

The boy has lost two years and is 23 now. He needs to get the fuck out of there and build a career before it's too late. I'm gutted, but it's been clear to me for the last 18 months at least, that he has no future under Mkll.

Even when he was performing well in the early part of the season before last and in the season before that when he came onto the scene, Arteta was always equivocal with any praise he gave him. It was along the lines of "He performed well, but there are things that he has to work on and improve on." There are always things that a young player can improve on, but fuck me, build his confidence when he's played well and don't publicly raise questions about the boy. He used to be a bit lukewarm about Martinelli too and kept him away from the first eleven for far too long imo. He never put the negatives in about Saka.

Anyway, I will be gutted to lose a talent like ESR, but in real terms we lost him 18 months ago, so best for him to move on. I'll wish him good luck and won't give a fuck if he comes back to haunt Arteta.

Not really arsenal related ,but Chelsea are in talks with man city about buying Cole Palmer ,city are quoting them a figure in the region of 45m ,now he's only relatively new in the city squad,but if we're selling ESR we should be looking at minimum 60m

Yeah! me Too. Also, the Majority of Gooners will be well Pissed Off is he is sold... and If he does go to a(so-called) rival - There will be much disgruntlement me thinks.

I am still bewildered by the Fact that CliveClubfoot played instead of ESR...

And that, my friend, remains one of life's great unsolved mysteries.

I'd be Very Surprised if $hitty sell Palmer, not only does he look a real prospect, but it's not as if they need the money AND Pep has been playing him in their most recent games so obviously has plans for him.

As to the Chavs it's there masterplan to buy every player available anywhere and so then they can Win The Prem Title without any contest!

Ceuuuunts!

Not us but the scum signed the full back Spence from Middlesborough last year for £20m (he looked good on loan to Forest in the match v us I recall )

Now gone to Leeds on loan for a season after making 6 appearances !

What a waste of money that was

We can't be regarded as a 'selling' club which is a good thing. I was just surprised that £38m was the highest transfer we've ever received. I can't remember what we got for RvP but Utd must've got a bargain.
We’ve got decent money for Balogun, Willock and Iwobi, who all cost nothing, which makes me fear we may sell ESR…

I reckon he's going Stuart, but it makes no difference anyway, because if her stays he won't be playing. For his own good he needs to go. :(

Sky report Balogun deal is done 38.7m pounds and a 17.5% sell on clause

Official, confirmed. Folarin Balogun has joined AS Monaco on deal in excess of €40m package, €30m plus significant add-ons structure 🇲🇨

Arsenal will have sell-on clause, it was always crucial point in negotiations.

It will be bit less than 20%. #AFC

Doubt they’ll go for ESR after this -

Cole Palmer to Chelsea, here we go! Agreement in principle reached with Manchester City on £40m deal plus £5m add-ons 🚨🔵 #CFC

Exclusive news revealed earlier today then quick resolution between clubs and green light from Palmer.

Medical tests to be booked soon.(Italian mush on Twitter).
