DiMarzio hasn't been as good in recent years sadly

I'd normally agree but he broke the interest today before Ornstein, so there is a chance he has a contact on this one.

Best to wait till we get official confirmation of him joining. If we have that, then you want him to come, if not then you never wanted him.

Therein lies the transfer forum!

I'm treating this as I treated the Bellingham palava. If he comes, great. If he doesn't, ok move on.
I just can't get excited about these chaps. Maybe Pep can make me believe?

Fair enough:)

DiMarzio hasn't been as good in recent years sadly

7 years ago i asked him in Twitter "When would i get married..?" and he said "Soon."

Sadly that didn't work out for me either.

 

[Phoenix900000]

Broke the story of a bid this morning tbf

Fair enough :)

I imagine both City and Arsenal are appealing to Rice in different ways, and he’s not likely to burn his bridges with either until at least one of them has agreed a deal with West Ham. Hopefully we’ll get him, but doubt he’s given an unconditional “yes” to anyone yet.

Could be an interesting 48 hours

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Been checking the odds on this all day.

This morning we were 11/4 and moved to 19/20 around lunchtime.

About an hour ago we were back at to 2/1 but are now 1/3 favourites. Its amazing how these ITK journalists releasing information can affect the market so much.

 

[Greenblue92]

I partially want to get him just to see the loonies like this have a meltdown, imagine saying this unironically

 

[Sky Blue]

Wants to play alongside Messi.











Miami Rice!

If Declan Rice favours an Arsenal move ahead of Manchester City, then that will say a lot about his ambitions as a player.

I don't say no to a treble winning side managed by the greatest manager we have arguably ever seen to join a bottlejob team across the road that have won 1 premier league title in 19 seasons.

It's simply a no brainer.

This is basically where I’m at. If we get him then I think he’ll be a fantastic signing but if we don’t get him (and have done what we can to do so fee-wise with what West Ham want) but he chooses Arsenal then I’ll be glad we don’t get him.

Why would you choose Arsenal? The champions of the 5 of the last 6 seasons want you, the current treble winners and Champions League holders managed by Pep Guardiola who not only has proven himself to be one of the best ever but also excels in player (specifically midfielder) improvement and you choose Arsenal because you want to stay in London…?

It sounds like sour grapes, it’s not because we won’t know his mindset until the day the transfer is done either way.

 

[Cricket Blue]

Would he want to leave London though?
Manchester isn't great in parts.

 

[skillman]

normally not a fan of this source but he did break the bid story before ornstein. fingers crossed blues !

Gianluca Di Hairdoo?

Doubt he will be living in beswick.

 

[Kinkladze 1]

He’s gone from 2/1 to 1/3 odds on sky today!!! Glad I slipped a tenner on at 2/1.

 

[manimanc]

And the transfer hokey Cokey has started.
Time to be happy/sad/elated/fucked off/buzzing and in the dark all within the space of an hour.
