Lost? They cut his ass loose.
I loved that guy so much when he was playing for us and then he **** on us after signing his last contract.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

They lost him. He just had a 30 goal season across all comps.
He had 14 more league goals than anyone else and twice as many assists as the next guy. He was their whole offense

I stand corrected.

Yeah he looked like his old self last year, albeit in Ligue 1.
I loved Auba in our team but man he just stopped caring that last year and if there is one thing you don't do with Arteta, it's not give 100%.

🚨 Fulham have seen an initial bid, understood to be worth around £30m plus bonuses, for Emile Smith Rowe rejected by Arsenal. Fulham are now considering making an improved proposal, while Crystal Palace are also keen on the player. [Simon Jones, @MailSport] #afc pic.twitter.com/MNb6UnFDCu

We've had that happen more than once the past decade. At least that's what it seemed like. Sign the huge contract and immediately they get fat and lazy.wangus12 said:

Nelson has apparently agreed to join West Ham and now the bargaining begins. Sounds like Arsenal want 15-20m for him which would be really good business in my mind

That would be a good deal, I think. Not a bad landing spot for him
And then take that money directly to Nico's agent…

So apparently the Calafiori deal would like be done already except Bologna wants FC Basel to drop their sell-on clause percentage, at least according to Tom Canton.
Such crap. It'll become a big game of chicken now to see who flinches first.

Just saw a tweet that Mike Elko is a Gooner
Lol apparently Nuno Tavares messed up his hamstring in his first preseason appearance today for Lazio. I can already see him somehow not hitting the obligation to buy milestones for them now
Seems like Nuno seems like one of those guys with a lot of talent that can just never put it together for an extended time due to injuries, mentality, whatever… hopefully we can at least salvage something for him.
Just saw that, fired up about it!
Heck yes. Let's get Nico.
I'm thinking that too. Use guys with the size profile and experience of playing centerback (White, Califiori, Tomi, Kiwior, Timber) that also have the technical ability and speed to both overlap and invert at times.
🚨🔴🔵 Understand Crystal Palace are set to bid for Emile Smith-Rowe.
— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 19, 2024
Fulham had proposal rejected by Arsenal this week and Palace now set to try, as Oliver Glasner really wants him.
🦅 #CPFC will also decide soon whether they will sign Ryan Sessegnon or not. pic.twitter.com/QDtUTP42XL
Palace bid is rumored to be 30-35m including addons.
Also, OZ posted on his IG that he signed with a new agent. Doubt we are offering an extension so that is likely the first step out the door.
🚨 Man Utd exploring deal to sign Chido Obi-Martin after Arsenal terms expired. #AFC made what felt was fair offer but youth striker decided to move on. 16yo visited #MUFC this week - discussions at early stage + others (not #MCFC) also keen @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/DnnKdMm6H2

I'm done with the kid. Way too much drama for a 16 year old. We've seen young kids tear up youth leagues before and not make it all the time. It's not worth the drama
🚨🔴⚪️ EXCL: Arsenal and Bologna have reached an agreement for Riccardo Calafiori, after breakthrough revealed earlier!
— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 20, 2024
Understand fee is €40m plus €5m add-ons and sell-on clause.
Final step needed: Basel and Bologna to agree 50% sell-on payment terms, then… here we go! 🏁 pic.twitter.com/ueCZ3XOu5f
🚨 Mikel Arteta is understood to want to keep Emile Smith Rowe at Arsenal, despite using him sparingly last season. Smith Rowe is due to depart for the club’s pre-season tour to the United States on Sunday, with Arteta set to decide on his future. [@ed_aarons] #afc pic.twitter.com/QfyPk5FI05

I agree. Hopefully just trying to drive up the price. That said, I'm fine with ESR staying because that is quality depth. But Arteta needs to actually play him if that's the case
🚨🔵⚪️ Olympique Marseille have sent initial proposal to Arsenal for Eddie Nketiah.
— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 20, 2024
No agreement close yet but negotiations started between clubs, as @Santi_J_FM reported.
He’s one of the next top targets after Mason Greenwood. pic.twitter.com/j5UKSmvyfw
I don't think we can sell ESR unless we have someone better coming in. No depth at that position.
But he needs to play. He absolutely has to play.

A lot of youth going on the America tour. Big Gabi, Little Gabi and Havertz are joining up after the Bournemouth game on Wednesday.
All the other Euro guys will join the team back in England.

Also bad news. Tomiyasu is hurt again (knee) and will stay in London

I've always loved ESR and he almost single-handedly saved Arteta's career several years ago, but I think you sell him if you get 32-35M.
I don't know if he really has a "position" at this point. Left 8 or Left Wing? We have several options at both positions that Arteta prefers. And it looks like we're likely to bring in more this summer. I think ESR's problem was he didn't to the things off the ball that Arteta wants, and he's just always injured. Love him but you have to sell good players and add better/the right players if you want to be elite.

I'm excited about Califiori, I think he's a great player with a unique skill set.
Everybody is thinking LB for him but I wouldn't be surprised to see Arteta use him to replace Gabriel. We all love Gabriel and he's a great player but Arteta can be ruthless (see Ramsdale). For Bologna he plays Centerback that moves into midfield and turns and makes runs with the ball. Arteta probably thinks Saliba can cover the back on his own, that's why Gabriel started on the bench last season in favor of a back 3. It didn't work then but maybe Arteta determined he didn't have the pieces he needed yet. Wouldn't shock me to see this…

Gabi started on the bench last season because he was entertaining a move to a Saudi club late in the window.
Here we go (almost)
🚨🔴⚪️ Understand Arsenal and Bologna are now preparing all documents for Riccardo Calafiori deal!
— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 22, 2024
Formal steps to follow in order to close the deal in the next hours.
Medical tests and contract signing to follow this week.
Here we go, coming soon. 🏁🇮🇹 pic.twitter.com/WIPaFJXTaf
Saw this earlier from an Italian newspaper....
technically doesn't hold up the deal but still crazy. Roma sells to Basel with a sell-on. Basel sells to Bologna (and pays off Roma) and includes a sell-on. Now Bologna selling to us (supposedly including a sell-on) and Roma deciding that they are owed from Basel because are getting some deferred payment.
Quote:
Riccardo Calafiori's move from Bologna to Arsenal is now becoming a legal dispute between Roma and Basel. Roma demands 8m from Basel, as they believe that their 40% sell-on clause also refers to what Basel will earn from Calafiori's Arsenal move.

RE Eddie.....
I've also heard West Ham still interested and there are some claims that we swap him to CP for Guehi
Marseille working on loan deal for Eddie Nketiah that includes obligation to buy. Opening proposal submitted last week fell short of Arsenal's valuation but kickstarted negotiations between clubs. Nketiah travelled with #AFC to USA on Sunday. #TeamOMhttps://t.co/IBN9bt4MmR

And supposedly a Saudi team is making a push for Jesus. Part of me wants to see him stay. Part of me would welcome a strong offer. If Jesus & Eddie go we absolutely HAVE to bring in a #9.
