Declan Rice

[Iassel]

Do you not think maybe he gets frustrated at having to do it though?

I mean do you really think that Pep turns up to preseason to see who he has available?

He’s 100% involved in the recruitment process and there is a 0% chance that Txiki who he has known for 30+ years didnt at least send him a WhatsApp on his holiday to discuss the next steps before pulling the plug

I think we should just give Philips a chance.

If Arsenal get Rice for £105m will we hear the phrase “splashing the cash” or will they be investing, building, supporting Arteta …and it’s only us who “splash the cash”?

Definitely wholesome investment. What happened to our bottomless pit again that gives us such an unfair advantage ..?

So, a few questions for a friend...
1. Did we really want him?
2. Are we glad he's going to Arsenal?
3. Is he a good player and we wish him all the best?
4. Is he now a fucking **** for choosing them over us?
I'm just so confused.

What is?

Madness sung embarrassment. That's it.

A big money move from Arsenal who haven't won the title for almost 20 years. If they splurge GBP220m on Rice and the players they're supposedly linked to then I hope the sanctimonious 'financial doping' commentators pick that up and analyse it a bit; not sure they are paying for any of this from prize money/revenue generated from sporting success. Isn't that what everyone criticised City for doing 10 years ago? 'Ah well, but Arsenal are an historically "Big Club" Mr. New Kid on the Big Club block...'. Nonsense.
