surely arsenal arent that fucking stupid??

Sadly Roberts blew he chance, if he had stayed in England this year I think he would have, but he has fallen off the radar going back to Scotland.

As it's half a dozen games a season(plus the qualifiers if you are so disposed to think of them as such)I guess it outweighed by playing teams that would struggle to get out of League One most weekends

Sky Sources: Deal involving Alexis Sanchez and Henrikh Mkitharyan would be a straight swap with no fee. #SSN https://t.co/fUpuOgYzuH

Are arsenal retarded?? Fuming

Didn't the rags just buy Mkhitaryan.

6 months contract left vs 2.5 years left... straight swap...wtf ...Arsenal joke football club

They appear to just want to get this done any way and any how.

Bet they regret that last day of the window more than us over all of this.

Could have got shut of a player just disrupting the team and had a new one by now.

If this goes through at best they swap one player who did not really want to be there for another.

Suicidal business planning.

Apparently stalled because Raiola wants Mikkys contract paying up.

PMSL it'd be ironic if mikys agent is as much as a greedy bastard as sanchez's agent and it all goes tits up.
For the love of football do not go to arsenal henrihk, nein nein nein.
Absolute soap opera involving supposedly the biggest team in the world.
Love it.

Haha if half this info is true it's entertaining

Why?

They get a player they want in exchange for a player they don't want.

 

[goalmole]

To a players agent even more attractive! I hate agents, 10m for what, I’m sure lawyers actually deal with contracts not agents themselves. My hope is that one day a player takes a stand and says I’ll do without agent and this snowballs to all of them doing it

Why would a player take a stand? cost's him fuckall. It's the clubs that pay.

They swap a player who doesn't want to be there for one who doesn't want to join though.

Despite all the humour about my team spirit post earlier at least we come out of this with that improved.

 

[Rammyblues]

So sky already downplaying how much this deal is costing the rags. YCNMIU.

 

[talkativesprout]

Anyone else think City have decided to see if Utd have 3 kings or a pair of 2 s?

 

[scousemanc]

A straight swap just doesn't add up. The only thing would make it believable would be if United were going pay part of his wages for the remainder of his contract.

 

[i8rags]

Just had the misfortune of reading ragcafe about this deal, searched the settings on my iPhone for the violence button, but it wasn’t there.
Never in my life have I ever wanted to punch so many.

 

[pudge]

They sell a player who doesn't want to be there for one who doesn't want to join though.

I read it as "not" instead of "now".

Apologies @TRUE BLUE NO1

 

[fatbloke]

Good post. Theres a fair few fans among us who for sone reason have a dislike of Ya Ya. To still call him a mercenary is fuckin shocking.

He lied about a deceased relative to try and force a move away to PSG. Before you try and retaliate and say we don’t know the situation use Mancini, Zabaleta and Silva as a reference point for the clubs treatment of players/management with family situations and don’t embarrass yourself.

Arsenal would be bonkers to accept that if it's true. Mkhitaryan only cost United about £27 million and is currently damaged goods. His true value at this time wouldn't be much more than £15 million.
