If he asks for my left nut in order to renew I would considered it a cheap deal.
The moment he turned between three Sp**s players, Jesus wept that was so good.

Of course. He can't be crowned on 8 matches but he's got the kind of calmness that I remember marveling at Van Dijk having in the CL Final against the ****. He's never troubled. He just goes around doing what he wants to do and nobody can rattle him. Son was as anonymous as I've ever seen him today. Whenever he got past White, Saliba was there just to calmly send him back where he came from empty handed.None at the moment, but he needs to build a reputation first to even be considered top 3. Winning something and getting back to the CL would get him in a position where the media would recognize him, until then he will be picking awards for kids
Closer to 100M, contract situation or not. Look what Fofana just went for and Saliba has always been 2 levels above him.Needs to get his contract signed ASAP. Him, Saka and Martinelli.
We are now in 50m+ player territory, with Saliba probably 80m already at this age. Edu is going to look like a ****ing rockstar with his sales going forward.
Not yet. But soon come. He will sign da ting. Triple announcement. They are loving their football.My biggest hope is, that he is really a gunner and doesn't want it so fast. But lets be realistic, he could play in every club of this world as a starter.
Contract lengths might be meaningsless "in terms of keeping a player" - they are not meaningless in terms of value. We need to secure the value of our investment at least. Obviously, we want more than that.The thing is contract lengths are pretty meaningless in terms of keeping a player these days. If a player really wants to go, he's going. Irrespective of if he has 1 year or 5 left.
As scary as it sounds, Saliba isn't the finished product yet. There's fairly significant room to improve still.
Get week in week out football on a bumper new deal and then move on to PSG or Real in 2-3 years. He'll still be nowhere near his peak at that point either.
If we manage to extend him the only unfortunate part is it's going to be like Henry and Vieira where the likes of Madrid are hammering down the door every summer but of course when you have that problem it means that you have an absolute top drawer player who hopefully is winning you things. That's certainly a better problem to have than players nobody wants like Mustafi and co.The thing is contract lengths are pretty meaningless in terms of keeping a player these days.

If he plays a key role for France in a successful WC campaign, we're going to have to buckle up, if not already.Imagine him winning the world cup with France Arteta got a fight on his hands.

Think he’s even outdoing this places expectations of him. He’s world class already ffs. He’s in line for a mega deal (as is Saka).
Maybe I'm an idealist, but I do think our draw is perhaps bigger than that. We'll see.If it were me and he and his camp were amenable I'd have a gentleman's agreement with him that if he signs a new long term deal that if in 2-3 years time a club comes in with an offer over £x then the club won't stand in his way to leave.
