General transfer rumours

[ninjamonkey]

Where have Arsenal got all this money from? Have they found some safes with the transfer budget they withheld from Wenger? White for £50m and now Maddison for £60m? Can't remember the last time they spent so much.

I honestly don't see this going through, Maddison is surely at a club with a FAR better chance of trophies than at Arsenal.

If Arsenal don't get off to a good start, I bet Arteta won't be there past Christmas either.

Arsenal fan TV will have us believe Arsenal haven't spent a penny for a decade but they actually spend a sizeable amount every season they just spend it on dross and have to pay their better players about double their worth just to stay.

The season before covid hit they spent £72 million on pepe and about that again on other players including around £30 million on saliba who has never played for them.

Last season they spent about £70 million on Gabriel and Partey(remember him?)

This season they've spent about £75 million again on white, tavares and lokonga and are now looking at a further 60 on maddison.

All of this by the way whilst bringing in hardly anything significant from sales.



Maddison for £60 million amplifies how laughable these Bernardo for £40 million comments are.

@ninjamonkey that puts it all into perspective doesn't it - City invest, Arsenal waste.

All those players you listed are useless and worthless (obviously they've not bought Maddison who I rate).

Pepe... jeez. £72m...!

Maybe Maddison wants to go to Leicester because he knows that once Arteta goes in October, Rodgers will be coming in? :)

Both of them are better off where they are.

Unless Arsenal are offering him silly money then surely he’s better off staying where he is?

nooooo, it’s clear he has had a big fall out with Rogers and leicester

Maybe Leicester don't want him and are more than happy for 60m

Wouldn't surprise me, he's a bit in and out, decent player but not top notch

A player who thinks he is far better than the reality to me, and Rodgers seems to feel the same if the end of last season was anything to go by.

Not a big fan either. Another PL player who would rather drop to his kness rather than see where his talent will take him.

At the minute Leicester are better but arsenal are a massive club and if they get if together they would dwarf Leicester so I can understand the temptation .
