Transfer round-up because why not?

by .

Well good morning to YOU.

We’re reaching peak shit-show in the media.

Agents are hawking their wares to the journos.

ITKs are hedging their bets.

Fans are lifting up all the rocks for clues.

Everyone is a little frustrated that there’s no clear direction as to where we’re heading this summer.

Clues you should care about.

Madrid don’t want to loan Dani out. They want to have a cheap summer and bring him and Odegaard back. Though apparently he still doesn’t feature in Zidane’s plans. The story is Arsenal tried to get a loan deal where we’d pay only 50% of his £60k a week salary. Worrying opening bid if you ask me. This is the danger of loaning young players, you make them good and important, the price goes up.

Torreira is being linked with a move to Italy, today, it’s Roma in a mooted swap deal for Diawara. I have no idea about the player from Roma, but the football scouts on Twitter seem to think he’s a bit of a nothing player, with the main advantage over Torreira being athletic suitability to the league. This clue matters because I think the club will do whatever they can to move him on this summer, he’ll be a swap.

Thomas Partey rumours are still hanging in the air, though it is now reported he wants £200k a week to join. I don’t blame him, he’s 27, a Champions League midfielder and he’d be moving to Arsenal who are coming out of a mess. That would mean we either pass on him or we move on a player with an equal salary.

Heeeeello Alex Lacazette. The Frenchman is a big name whatever you think of him and he can be relied on for goals. Napoli are holding fast on Milik and reports are that Juve might focus their attention on someone they can get for a better price and maybe even a swap deal. Lacazette earns about £180k a week, he’s a big earner, that might be the key to other big names. Swap deals mooted are Gonzalo Higuain, Douglas Costa, or Cristian Romero.

Cal Chambers is attracting interest from Scotty Parker’s newly-promoted Fulham. The player was relegated there in the past, but he knows the place and he’s well-liked there. Could be a good recuperation loan move, or a decent £12m deal for Arsenal in the climate. We need to move out centre-backs if we want to bring them in. He’s young, he was looking good before the break, but I think we can do better.

Final few…

Aouar for Matteo? Would be nice.

Joelson for a fringe player and a lot of cash? Hmmm? Maybe nice?

Gabriel to choose Napoli over THE MIGHTY GOONERS? No way. Don’t believe it. Finding this Napoli/Lille love-in interesting though.

Right, that’s me done, unleash speculation on my F5!

Sid You are discussing a diamond which was discovered and given to Royal Family more than 100 years ago. What has this got to do with current production? For your information Botswana is the largest producer of diamonds in Africa and most mines are owned in partnership between Government and De Beers. There are African Directors on the Board of De Beers. Also the Sights which were sales of rough originally operated in London take place in Botswana and diamond cutting takes place in that Country as well. Most countries in Africa have been Independent for over 50 years so… Read more »

Only if Pierre could find a brutal backstreet gang leader he can be friends with too…if he can’t find an actual murderous dictator for cordial friendship, so as to follow in the very footsteps of Ozil.

Alexanderhenry

Make no mistake Ozil’s behaviour is unacceptable.
He’s publicly criticised the manager for not picking him and made a laughable excuse for not taking a pay cut, whilst at the same time criticising the club for firing staff which is blatantly hypocritical.

He’s also used his position to make political statements which is not his role.

All this after producing fuck all on the pitch.

I’d be happy if arsenal got rid of him for nothing.
Who would pay his wages though?

@GentleBris: I’m not an expert on Northern Nigeria but I read an article that more people of the Christian faith have murdered in that region, at a point this year, than any other place on the planet.

I could go on and on, but I don’t wanna make this a Muslim bashing rant, because nothing could be further from the point.

Bellerin gets his fair share of flak too for his loony leftist viewpoints. But at least he is not mates with rabid jehadi dictators/rulers. Funny that Ozil can talk about China but not a word on Hagia Sophia in Turkey, his native country. He’s a hypocrite.

‘You are discussing a diamond which was discovered and given to Royal Family

Still theft.

100 years don’t make a crime right.

That jewel belongs to the natives who settled and had hundred of years of history on the land.

In the spirit of social repentance, that jewel -along with 65% of British wealth-are due to be handed back to the rightful owners.

Now that will be difficult right?… so guys like Un should just at least shut up and stop judging other nationals

Well, you can look it two ways.Your way or:

If Erdogan is a rabid jihadist dictator- maybe its better to be friends with him as opposed to an enemy of him?

its all about management.
And Ozil is running rings around Erdogan, and Arsenal.

Thats why he reached the pinnacle.
Playing for Real Madrid, winning the world cup and garnering £18 million per annum.

He knows the Game.
Certainly better than Our Dopes, thats for sure.

I actually think ozil did his whole moral crusade thing just to give the club a reason to let him stay home and play fortnite every week, believing that fans would be dumb enough to sympathize with him It would’ve been win win if it worked. No need to play football. 350k a week in the bank. Reputation still in tact with fans But he underestimated the intelligence and priorities of the arsenal fans and has instead made himself public enemy n1 at the club. It was one risky move to many in this shitty game he’s been playing with… Read more »

I don’t think we can expect ozil to be a fighter for all things good and all religions all around the world. But we can expect him not to be extremely close friends with a fucking dictator. It’s a really low bar to be met but as with most things ozil he sunk below it

It’s a bit ignorant to blame a nation as a whole for the sins of a minority. As always, look at who profits, follow the money. The vast majority of UK citizens did not profit to any degree from Empire, even those working for the East India company for example were mostly from the working classes given the choice of that or the poor house. Same with slavery, working class agitators were campaigning against the slave trade for decades before parliament took note (mostly because abolition would damaged the French to a greater degree than the English).

So all Germans today are responsible for the actions of a Austrian/German who died 70 years ago?

Should that include recent African immigrants who are now German citizens? Or are they exempt?

This is a genuine question as I don’t know much about African history, but war, exploitation, conquest etc has presumably also been present in Africa, just as it was pretty much all around the world.

If the Europeans are to be held to a high standard to reconcile what their ancestors did over a century earlier, are there similar conversations about how African peoples exploited one another throughout history?

The same tyrants lineages have committed atrocities against white europeans but instead of decolonising their minds they have continued obeying their aristocrats.

Sid

The African tyrants are modelled on the European model.

But it remains firmly in place because a core of the Europeans whose ancestors were colonized and dispossed have bought into the lie that they too are emperors because they share same skin color with their aristocrats.
In the global empire, Europeans are the house slaves. They will defend the monarchy even when it exploits them.

As long as Germany understands and accepts that what it did was horrific and doesn’t wish to go down that route again, I hold no further ill feeling. It was a very long time ago… I could happily move to Germany if circumstances ever went that way.… Read more »

“As I said al! along ..he was fit and ready to play …dropped for non footballing reasons.”

He was dropped for footballing reasons. Ozil cannot function in a 2 man midfield in a 3-4-3.

Aubameyang our best striker and Capitan has the left side of the front 3. Lacazette and Eddie have the middle because they hustle and harass defenders. The last spot was reserved for wingers that can take on players which Ozil can’t.

Would you have played Ozil as a wing back?

As a bristolian I felt immensely proud seeing a statue of a slaver get torn down a couple of months ago

I don’t feel guilty for what my ancestors did (if they did) but I do not wish to idolize them just because they were on the winning side of history.

The issue over that statue was ridiculous, thing had been up 120 odd years. Why hadn’t it been taken down by the Labour council at some time in the past?

No one had an issue with the statue being removed it was the way it was done. What if someone decides that Churchill’s statue is offensive? Can a small minority remove it because they don’t like it?

China, don’t make the mistake of including the vast majority of British people as those equally culpable as the wealthy elite of the country who drove and profited from such heinous activities.

The wing back system works fine against the 2 top teams, we sit back and soak up the pressure.

Let’s not forget that our 4 defeats this year in the league were post lockdown with a wing back system, so I wouldn’t get too carried away in thinking that is the system we will continue with next season.

No but seriously I’m actually grateful for that article. There’s absolutely no way of the club taking him back now. The only bad thing is that he’s forcing us into doing what he wants which is to pay him off. And for a cash strapped club it’s not nice but it has to be done to rid ourselves of such a man like that

I’ve only picked up pieces of what Ozil said (not really interested in him beyond is he gone yet) but it seems as if he’s trying to force a situation where the club have no option other than to pay him off/ come to an agreement for him to leave now.

What we’ve got to do is make sure the deal suits us financially otherwise he can rot training by himself.

Politics and football do not mix. And financially, it is a disaster – take a look at the recent viewing numbers for woke nascar, nba, etc. Off a cliff.
Ozil is a footballer, not a political commentator. What a waste of the best (and most costly) technical talent at Arsenal.
Our club should not bend the knee to BLM rioters, but Ozil should keep his mouth shut too. People pay money to watch football, not for woke editorials.

Speaking of which how will Pedro react to the Ozil interview. Will he see it as another opportunity to have a pop at management or will he side with Ozil. I mean he does infer some issues with Arteta…
