I like zinch, and he's a great squad player always reliable....but what you see is what you get, and if the fee is right he can move on

Good player, but think he will be exposed at LB in a system where the team doesn't dominate possession like we do, he's just not the best defender

Think if we can get £35mil or thereabouts which can go directly to Cucurella we should consider it
 
Stay for ever zinch don't listen to the btec pep once he's sacked theyl crumble again

Romano is rather a strong source. I definitely see that it could happen, especially when Cucurella would come.

Romano isn't a source. He's an aggregator of club's sources. Jack Gaughan in this case.
 
Given the tumult in both his life and that of his wife, I just don't envisage them wanting to leave a place where they are evidently comfortable and loved. Successful clubs will always have players who are undervalued by their supporters but who are valued and appreciated by their teammates, especially those whom they help to shine.

Very much hope he stays and adds to the 11 trophies he has helped us win.
 
Heard he's just in 30 grand a week, is this a case of agent getting him an improved deal ?
 
One of our most under rated players IMO, nearly always does a good job, appears to be happy to be rotated and seems a popular member of the squad. Unless the money is too good to refuse, I don't see any need for us to sell.

Would not accept less than £30m for him.

A new deal when he has no place in midfield and Cucurella would come? Doesn't make a lot of sense for City and especially for him to be honest.
 
Could be a case of selling him £30m and paying £35m for cucurella? Really don’t see city pushing him out though and zinc seems to absolutely love being at city?
 
Every player wants to play. Imagine his game time when Cucurella would come? Cucurella is a specialist LB and defensively better than Zinchenko. It's natural that the player would consider a move if the club wants to buy an LB specialist. As I said before, we have more talented players in midfield than Zinchenko and IMO he doesn't have enough quality to play as a starting midfielder at City, especially against top sides. People love him, because of his personality, but maybe the player wants to play more?

Arteta should get over this fetish of signing Mancity players. His job is on the line next season and he's hoping City or Pep would bail him out.

Don't think its a fetish when he has worked closely with these lads and understands just what they are capable of.

Zinchenko would do a great job in a possession based team (which Arsenal are). Arteta knows how rigorous our recruitment process is and just what good characters Gabby and Zin are. Any Premier league side would be lucky to have them. I would do exactly the same in his shoes.

I rate our youngster but not that much. Hopefully City goes for two fullbacks then? Because like we’ve seen this season, three fullbacks isn’t enough.

Like we’ve seen…
Just won the title didn’t we.
 
Would be sad if he left for another prem team tbh, clearly loves the club and will do a good job in midfield for Arsenal. But he really isn't the answer to our left back problem even though he has done his best filling in for a few seasons now.

If we sign Cucarella and sell Zinny to cover most of the fee I will have to get over it I guess!
