tbh if we stopped selling all our players for peanuts or for free(all other top clubs get huge value for their toss most of the time) we would be able to fedge together a decent transfer kitty.

take chambers, pool/utd etc would be able to offload him for up to 30mil to some desperate promoted club. we will end up loaning him forever(until he leaves for a free) or sell him for peanuts

If these Meunier rumours are true it might be the dumbest purchase i have ever seen this club make. We really don't need a RB.

Redcafe seems to have a serious hard-on for him, he's no good?

He's good but healthy bellerin + amn should be sufficient. We need a lb+cb+winger+cam(don't hate selling ozil and giving iwobi tons of minutes tho)

Yeah if we didnt have Bellerin and 40m transfer budget im sure he would be a fine purchase. It just would be a waste of our very limited funds.
I withdraw my statement though. Purchasing Mario Götze would be the dumbest thing we could do(is this 2014?).

Report says we’re offering a 5 year contract for Muenier. Will we ever learn?

At that point even if you get a good young team together, you're not keeping any unless Kronke invests in wages.

Arsenal spent the 5th most money and finished 5th. Getting rid of bad money is never a good idea but tanking doesn't work in Europe.

I think we’ve all been hit with a harsh dose of reality as of late. Spurs are obviously already the clear #1 right now, and even if they lose the final and players like Eriksen decide they want to go elsewhere to try to win something, they’ll be able to get a king’s ransom (something that we’re worse at than almost anyone else in the league) and bring in someone like Ndombele.

Young players will always want to try to make it at a club like Arsenal. Also, our wage bill isn’t small. It’s just completely ****ed up for lack of a better term.

Guys why are you so sure that Bellerin stays? Or any of our premium players stay?

Btw I am all for shifting Auba to give change to Willock/Eddie. This is probably the last year we can get a decent amount for him.

I do not agree with cashy a lot of the time, but seems like Auba's time is close to being up. We must do a Sanchez quickly as his linkup play is truly atrocious and his first touch is not stellar either.

I do expect quite a few players to leave and not nearly enough to join.

I expect a ****show summer for real.

Trying to sell auba seems lol. When you buy a guy like him at his age you accept you probably aren't getting any money back on him.

Just keep playing him till he's no good, seems like the least of arsenal issues at the moment, just won the golden boot/topped the league in xg.

I guess they could sell him to united and spend the money buying some striker from france that is nowhere near as good. Didn't really work out last time tho.

I just hope we will not invest in another 30 year old center-back and someone on a free and call it a day.

We need serious restructuring and we need money for it - seemingly the owners will not invest their own money so we are left with shifting big players for big money and start rebuilding.

Our youth team has a pretty decent shot at going deep in the EL and League cup. We probably cannot dream of any other silverware in the near future either (maybe the FA Cup.maybe). So the sooner we start the rebuild the better. Just dont go the Lichsteiner way please cause I am going to be sad.

I am considering just walking off the face of the planet a'la cashy.

If Spurs win the CL I think I am just going to do it and be back around September. Maybe it is a fever dream...maybe.

we need a complete rebuild and keeping auba is stupid at this point considering that a system with 2 strikers like auba/laca who do NOT complement each other doesn't work well.

shift auba, özil, miki, mustafi, elneny and some other tross, clearing the wage bill and making funds available in the progress

Everything I once loved about this team is basically dead so sell whoever.

Feels like the next elite level young striker who pops up is going to end up being sold for Neymar type money.

Barca will surely be looking to replace Suarez soon, United have garbage up top and Chelsea is worse. Cavani is 32 but maybe PSG just move Mbappe up top, if not there's more competition.

More money in the market than talent.

Cavani’s off to Athletico Madrid anyway. Terms agreed yesterday.

Could that young starlet be Erling Haaland? If so, RB Salzburg did some good business getting him early.
