Not really halved, they want £35m plus a united player worth 25m/30mI often don't blame him for being frustrated at Arsenal. If the chips are down there, he's frequently the only player who seems like he gives a shit.
And I don't even blame him too much for offering his services around for a higher wage. His asking price from Arsenal has halved so there's more clubs potentially in the mix. Yes, the money involved is ridiculous, but people in the same position would play off potential employers.
