This is all goona come down to money can arsenal afford yo lose out on £50m+ and can they afford to pay him as well as new signings and new players contracts without breaking ffp rules????

They can't and everyone knows it! lol it's beautiful

 

[Blue Coop]

Everyone keeps using £50m. I can see them asking for £60m-£70m. You can't replace him for £50m, and that's one year of Champs League.

[gordondaviesmoustache]

hahahahaha

With him in Chile at the moment, I think this transfer could snowball fast.

 

[Tanzeylee]

There's more chance of it snowing in Chile than him signing for us

Very good sir, I applaud you for your knowledge of global news.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

So basically, he probably won't sign the new deal, would like to leave but the ball is in Arsenal's court whether to sell him now or keep him until the end of his contract. Is that not what we've been debating what will happen the last 900 pages or so?

It's the fact that he's been so open in public about it. As far as I've seen, so far he's been avoiding questions and saying things like "I'll let you know my decision later". Now he's obviously implying he wants to leave.

Like you say, nothing new really other than this response more than likely leading to Wenger having to answer more direct questions to the press.

The last time it snowed in Chile, june 2011, he signed for baracelona.... just saying!!

 

[GunnerGer]

He has basically said he has asked to leave and when you look at the full transcript of the interview, its clear which club he has set his heart on joining.

But we all kind of knew that would be the case anyway, and we all know the City is really the only club left in the running. It was always going to come down whether Arsenal sell him now or insist on him staying.

The only real thing I can see different to what we know on here is that the reality is starting to sink in over in Arse Mania.

It's not called Chile by accident!

No way do Arsenal or any club for that matter, even us lose out on a fee of this magnitude with a player going into his final year and knowing he wont sign a new contract.

Arsenal will sell.

Our spending not exactly puny this window and if we go for others also will we approach FFP barrier once again ?

 

[PistonBlue]

Arsenal don't really have a choice now. He wants to go, and can go for free in 12 months. When they think about it from a purely business point of view taking all emotion out of it, they really have only one option. And if ever there was a club run as a business before a football club, its Arsenal. He will leave them the minute they move away from the denial and anger phases into the acceptance phase.

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

I was never called Rosler and any of the mods could confirm that. I've been called twosips on here since about 2008.

It was a joke twoslips no offence intended.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Can't believe anyone would think that Arsenal would allow him to run his contract down and leave on a free, lol.

They can ask for £70m. They won't get it. We don't need to budge from our £50m position one iota. We're the only show in town
