Marc Cucurella

[Tokyo32]

We paid 100m for Grealish, so we have previous, pay that sort of money and you have little argument in negotiations in the future.

Can you just move on.

The club clearly doesn’t value him at 50m+, Previous transfers have no bearing here. Even if we overpaid for every other transfer we have made, nothing changes here because we don’t value him at 50m.

We sadly have a percentage of our fan base that's becoming very entitled, sad to see and not worth of this great club.

Listen I like what you say and I think your posts are well thought and constructive but you have to let this entitled obsession with us go.
It doesn't apply to everyone, certainly doesn't apply to me, just don't tar everyone with the same brush.

The club don't seem to have moved on so there seems a deal to be had, IF he is the player Pep wants a deal will be done.

What a bizarre post. Why is Cucurella a clown?

Well, if Coco can be one, why can’t Cucu?

I think we would've moved on by now to another target. But I think we haven't as multiple reports have said that Cucurella is the full back that Pep wants in this team. With Pep having a year left I'm guessing the club want to give him what he wants transfer wise.

They are trying to make a deal, you don’t have to keep repeating to everyone that he is worth 50m and that we have overpaid for everyone.

We all know we have overpaid before, but it doesn’t mean they want to overpay now.

Time will tell, I still think the deal will be done, otherwise we would have moved on, we want a player that a club does not want or need to sell, so the player leaves on their terms, that just fact.

One criticism of our scouting is players like this, according to "sources" he is a player we have looked at for sometime, yet was available for 16m 12 months ago, and we have needed strengthening at LB for a long time.

As you say we will see….
I do resent being accused of being “entitled” though.
I have been a fan for over 50 years and have followed us through thick and (largely) thin over time.
We are now in a position to be able not to be taken for a ride financially as players want to join us for the football we play and the success we bring them.
There’s nothing self entertaining about wanting to get value for money just like everyone else would want.
If a club really doesn’t want to sell an asset then all they have to say is he’s not for sale, and not quote silly prices. If they do it means they want to cash in. Nothing much wrong from their standpoint but at least prices should be reasonable….
Anyway, all will be revealed in time.

Not getting at you personally but I find it incredible when the Chairman of another club who does not want to sell a player is called unreasonable.

People have short memories, I can remember losing the likes of Barnes, Owen, Wilson, Caton, SWP to "big entitled clubs"

As said short memories.

Just what we want. Square pegs in round holes which nearly cost us at end of the season. Last season we started the season with 4 full backs, Walker, Cancelo, Mendy and Zinchenko. We cannot go into a season with only 2 senior full backs.

We can and we will for the reasons I have already outlined. The only way this will change is if Brighton take the price we are offering as we won’t be going anywhere near their silly demand of 50m.

Anyone on here join an arsenal forum when they were linked with jesus and zinchenko?
Thought not.
