Bit of of Bullcrap imo, £4.5million? after that 70k per week just lying on treatment table? COME ON. let's just be grateful that he's not doing the same thing Cole did. but still it's all about Money? come on Freddie. that's just the greed talking. sigh..

i'm slightly surprised there has been no arsenal.com story denying all this speculation yet which is either getting out of hand or is painfully close to the truth.

little conversation with me and my mum just now, she phoned me after reading the morning papers;

mum: we can't get rid of freddie
me: why not?
mum: he's one of our best looking players
me: looks aren't everything...well i guess they are for freddie since he's on his back most of the time

I am sure it is not all about money. Quite opposite. If he really said that, which I doubt, he said it just to buy himself stay at Arsenal. I that was me I would do practicaly anything to stay if the club I love with all my heart is trying to sell after all the good times.

If I am not mistaken Arsenal never comment on newspaper speculation. They never used to anyways.

What spuds as his no1 choise? No way, he was too long at this cub. I don't think he would say to anybody or feel that Wenger betrayed him as mentioned here !!?? ( http://www.eurosport.com/football/premi ... 0872.shtml )
This whole thing sound very fake.

They do sometimes. I can remember denial of the Reyes rumours and denial of the Zigic rumours.

Don't know what to make of this to be honest. Personally I can't believe we would treat Freddie like that, but you never know. Our board even left Dennis in the dark for months over a new contract. Repeatedly.

Don't know what to make of it either. One thing you always hear about players from the past is how well they treat you at club whilst you are there. If Arsenal have decided to let Freddie leave I sure hope they have done it the right way.

As for new contracts, well we do have a rep of leaving players in the dark and leaving it till the last minute.

 

[Sammer]

Even though he has been absolutely sh*te for the past 18 months on the pitch, you can see that he still wants to perform well and gives everything he´s got - even though it ain´t enough any more for our 1st team.

It makes sense for the board to get his comparably huge wage bill off our balance sheet, but he should get treated in a respectful and honorable manner.

He has done so much for the club that this is the minimum they should do.

Wouldn´t mind Freddie being sold though at the end of the season...

 

[Shredder]

Apparently, Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet has questioned Wenger himself after last night's game under a headline saying "He isn't protecting Freddie":

Hur blir det med Fredrik Ljungberg?
– Åh, det är egentligen inte rätt tid att diskutera det nu.
Men kan du kommentera det som stått i tidningarna?
– Freddies framtid är under diskussion. Han tillhör fortfarande Arsenal, säger Arsène Wenger.
Hur länge?
– Vi kommer inom kort att berätta hur vi ser på situationen.

Most of you know Swedish, of course, but for those of you who don't here's a loose translation:

What are you going to do with Ljungberg?
- Meh, this isn't the time to discuss that.
But can you comment on what's in the papers?
- Freddie's future is up for discussion. He's still Arsenal property, says Wenger.
But for how much longer?
- We'll be sharing our views on the situation shortly.

Juventus and Milan linked with our Freddie!

 

[asajoseph]

Very interesting.

He obviously really is on the way out... Am a little surprised, but his performances really do not warrant a place any more...

 

[goonerwarsh]

I just hope the whole situation will be handled with respect, don't want another airing the dirty laundry in public scenario that we had with Cole. Though it's a completely different situation

 

[Rohit]

Lauren in talks with West Ham,Ljungberg looking certain to leave and Lehmann probably will leave in the summer.Leaves us only with Henry,Gilberto and Kolo from the unbeaten team.

I'd hate him to leave, as he's a legend, but for £7m (the fee that is being talked about) even I would see the sense in it. And, like you say, his performances have been dire for the last year or so, save for the occasional European performance.

Inter Milan linked with Freddie

it looks like he won't be going to West Ham after all

but at the same time it looks like he's not willing to leave

Freddie Ljungberg, who has been linked to Tottenham, will demand a £4.5m pay-off for the remaining 18 months of his contract - if Arsenal sell him to help fund a £15m bid for France and Marseille winger Franck Ribery. (Daily Mirror)

Ljungberg has told Gunners boss Arsène Wenger he is going nowhere. (Daily Star)
