Official Gooners Thread - A New Hope

[From the Bunker]

As bad as Arsenal fans are I don't think they'd have wrecked London for a celebration, see hundreds arrested in Paris!

The talk is that those in Paris are not fans but more opportunist hooligans.

One ballot entered - one success.

Bodes well.

Home to Chelsea.

You're obviously Silver? Red waiting on results.

[ONeill]

Yeah, the young lad is a Red so he's waiting. We can only get two at the one time if I enter the Red draw but the chances are too low there.

The Vini Jr rumours won't go away.. Trying not to get carried away reading them 😅 would be a fantastic signing

Sign no-one (especially huge fee/huge wage cast offs)

Back Tzolis, Eze, Martinelli and Nwaneri

500k a week? Who else will be looking for a payrise?

Martinelli most likely being sold, has regressed a lot past two seasons. Eze be played through the middle and Nwaneri isn't a left winger.

480k being mouted and he'll keep 100% of his player image rights and get a loyalty fee from Madrid (£20m).

As for others wanting a pay rise, not my money so don't care how the club spend it.

[Mourne Red]

Ahh the ITKs are coming out saying Vini looking at staying now.. Fun while it lasted.

Well it was more do they have that type of money to spend?

Ornstein reported it was approved at all levels so I'm assuming they had the funding there too meet his wages. Also have £250-£300m to spend this summer going by finances.

Extra money from champions league ridiculous since the change in format.

Where's all the money coming from considering every man and his dog has a dodgy stick nowadays ?

The global market probably contributing a fair bit. Currently pay for Paramount+ for Champions League games and would argue the NBC Sports Network money for the PL isn't terrible either. Pubs probably not getting away with the hookie sticks much either.

Rumours aren't going away..

[ONeill]

I just find it hard to believe.

His people must be using Arsenal as a bargaining chip for one hell of a deal from Madrid?
