ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

[Andrew]

Exclusive: Arsenal working on deal to sign Takehiro Tomiyasu from Bologna - talks under way but depends on other movements. 22yo Japan int’l can play right-back + centre-back. Has been on #AFC radar all summer. W/ @gunnerblog @TheAthleticUK #DeadlineDay https://t.co/WNg4IWm6uj

Who?

japanese international - will be brought in to help sell shirts in our far eastern markets.

looking at his wiki page he missed most of 2019/20 due to injury
in October 2020 he scored an own goal which was the winning goal for the opposition
he then had injury problems again

perfect fit it looks like

FFS what are they trying to do to the club?

The amazing thing is Kroenke still trusting these guys to spend any more money - guaranteed this will be another absolute disaster

Signing Japanese players has gone so well for us in the past...

A message to the management:

Please please please don't buy anyone else as your incompetence knows no bounds.
Concentrate your efforts in getting rid of some of the rubbish you've already collected.

The funny thing is with buying all these young players, I suspect with a view to future resale value, is that they have to be seen to play well in a relatively good team for their value to increase.... Under Brent that is highly unlikely to happen

Exactly - no doubt when the previous regime splashed out on Saliba, they thought we were paying €27m for someone who might go on and be worth double and save us from a "Ben White" English signing at overinflated prices.

It does of course help if the manager picks them and has a fucking clue what he's doing!

[Gunner Rob]

It's like someone has embedded a virus in the club that was designed to slowly take it down and ruin it to the point of no return.

Regrettably, the virus is working a treat. You'd be hard pressed to find a club run as badly from top to bottom as this one.

Amazon have hit gold with their new team this season - I am sure that they will be negotiating to come back next season too.

Arsenal have agreed a deal worth €23m with Bologna for defender Takehiro Tomiyasu.

The Japan international will now undergo a medical. Personal terms are not expected to be a problem. Tottenham were interested earlier in the window.

As reported earlier, Arsenal right back Hector Bellerin to have a medical in Seville ahead of a move to Real Betis. (Sky Sports News)


Fucking heartbroken - not a penny received for Linda, AMN whilst we still have Chambers and Cedric. Five right backs on the books and here we are spending €23m and not recouping a penny

Edu surely has to go even if they keep goon chops as manager?

How can an owner allow this level of utter incompetence.

[SteveO 35]

Odsonne Edouard is currently having his medical ahead of a move from Celtic to Crystal Palace.

The deal would be worth £14m up front, potentially rising to £18.5m.


So here we are stuck with Nketiah. HONEST TO FUCKING GOD, FIRE THESE USELESS C.UNTS NOW KROENKE YOU PIECE OF SHIT !

[BFG4]

Remember the days we weren't too far away from a title challenge and Wenger would always leave us a few Players short, and now we are rock bottom and the clueless *word censored* in charge are trying to scrape together a squad, while keeping the average players we have. This is beyond shambolic and is the type of nonsense that will have us battling relegation this season.

£23M for an injury prone CB who can play at RB ???????

WTF IS GOING ON

A Japanese centre back. To play at right back?

According to @abc_sevilla, Real Betis need to make space in their budget to accommodate Hector Bellerin & are working on getting players out of the squad to free up room for the right-back. https://t.co/y3dU9cS8FD



Real Betis have reached an agreement with Arsenal to sign Hector Bellerin on loan — no option to buy. Working on final details of personal terms — 26yo RB taking a pay cut to get career back on track. Medical in London this afternoon @TheAthleticUK #AFC https://t.co/KeiRdL3HFW

This is the sort of player you get in on a free, but oh no let’s just waste another 23M to make it look like a good signing.

I no longer “trust the process”

I do trust the process, if that process is 'Can the current executive team relegate the club and cause the value of the club to plummet?'
