Sami Mokbel in. The same article incoming from John Cross and that new bloke who replaced Wilson.

Its not easy when you have 6 CB and struggling to get rid of them.

True.

Kos is gone, just a matter of getting a few million out of Bordeaux or Rennes. Hopefully Mustafi also. We have a few extra weeks to sell these players to European clubs.

Doesn't help when we need the money now.

Mokbel just speculating lol.

Yeah his article is basically just him assuming a lot of things.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Might get some more at 10.30, usually news pops up around that time. Pls.

Yousif's point was about us having 6 CB's. Kos is going.

At the moment we don't even know if the CB will be a loan or a buy.

Massive 3 days coming up, I still have us favourites for 4th if things stay like this, but if we get KT and a CB I think we cement it.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

One player hmm seem either Tierney deal done oe it's either Tierney or CB

 

[Iceman10]

Regarding how much money we have to spend exactly, one thing to note is it appeared pretty real that we tried to gazump Everton for Moise Kean.

Not a fan of pretending installment payments mean we have lots more money than we have, but I wouldn't be surprised to see 20-30m raised towards the deadline for most of the rest of Europe (02-Sep) with offloading of "deadwood", in addition to approx. 20m of incomings from Bennacer (clause), Ospina, and Bielik (installments).

I would much rather be in our position going into the last week than United & Sp**s. We have locked up our major signing & youth for the future now just looking for a loan /stop gap CB & a LB when we already have two.

Opportunities will arise next week as clubs looking to sell or loan out talent... hopefully we take advantage. Interested to see if Sessegnon, Bakayoko or Lemina peak our interest.

We are not favourites for 4th with our current defence.

I still think we are.

Think it’s "a player", not "one".

 

[field442]

Think it’s "a player", not "one".

Yes. I think with his current grasp of English he tends to use “one” instead of “a”.

I think Tierney will come in and I'm hoping we can shift any of elneny/mhiki/Jenkinson. Wouldn't be too upset if mhiki or Özil go either but part of me wonders if Pepe might just help them find a new spark. A reinvigorated Özil is a game changer.

I think our defence with Tierney is sufficient for top 4. We'll have to put up with mustafi for another year but it's been a very good transfer window and we've secured our defender for the season after already

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Better context here. Same as we've always said.

That makes sense. Unless we get clear improvements better keep powder dry.

I'm thinking most of our sales barring Jenkinson will be into Europe and there window doesnt close until 2nd of September, so we have good amount of time to deal with that outside of this week.
(Surprised Celtic don't seem interested in Jenkinson, he'd be really good there, i can only thing his wages are making it difficult)
