I think we go in big for Barcola.

Romano saying he has terms agreed with Liverpool and all that's left is finding an agreement with PSG.

If we were going to highjack this, we have done so already.

Can't think of a reason Barcola's team or PSG would keep quiet about us going for him. The silence on this one is the loudest part.

Time will tell, we always move in silence where possible.

we are market opportunity FC, though.

think that's what he meant.

It's something that has been an issue re: squad building long before Mikel joined and has persisted.
I genuinely didn’t know what market opportunity means. Every signing is an opportunity.

We just pushed Newcastle for Bruno. We forced a sale from West Ham for Rice, etc. Even Gyok was a battle to get the way we did. We had him almost on strike. It’s not like we only make easy transfers. You don’t assemble the deepest squad in the Prem through “market opportunities”

There's no reason why PSG would keep quiet about this, though. They need more teams wanting to sign him to get anywhere near what they are asking for the player.

His agents would also be looking at much better terms from Liverpool, given we can probably offer a much better salary AND stability then they can.

Strongly linked with a move away. I don't think this would be good business for us; one of our best young talents
With strongly linked you mean a waffling Guardian article by some bum named Jamie Jackson? Hahaha the guy said we have offered him to United for a price of 45 M quid. To be tiny bit credible, he could have at least written something like north of 80M with a long term deal and being 19, starting the CL final for us etc
Just check the guys X, mofo is a fiction writers (for real)

Market opportunity means Vini, Özil and Alexis. Bruno is one, too.

When it comes to elite players, we never force a club that is either on parity with us or is higher on the food chain to sell.

It's a very reactive way to plan your squad and our squad being filled with square pegs - regardless of how good they are - is a reflection of that.

Alvarez, should it somehow happen, would be bucking that trend, for instance.

They're about to sign a total of three wingers and he's not renewing.

If Arsenal were in this to the point where we informed PSG, Fabrizio would have gotten a phone call and a nose beer delivery already.

So anything that isn’t signing a top player from City, Madrid, Barca, Bayern or PSG is a market opportunity..?

Whatever we’re doing it’s working incredibly well lol.

Also people get pissed when the club doesn’t go after players who are seemingly available at smaller clubs because they become more difficult to get later…

When has Arteta ever showed a willingness to rotate?

He’s got three senior internationals ahead of him now.

This is what his reps will be thinking.

He could go to Chelsea, get paid more and play more.

He does rotate but it tends to be when his hands are tied. I think the addition of Bruno indicates a willingness to rotate more. Zubimendi is still a top quality player who will need game time. I don’t see how we don’t utilise all our options are we fight on all fronts.

I completely get why MLS might be thinking about playing time but a loan should suffice hopefully. In any case I hope he doesn’t go Yanited.

Arsenal Quotes

Arsenal have always been the club of the people, the streets. Arsenal was one of the first clubs to really have black players, so it did represent the mass of the UK and how London is. I hope people at the club know that and who are they playing for.
