✍️ OFFICIAL Declan Rice

[lomekian]

West Ham's press briefing team going into overdrive trying to make Arsenal look bad, like they are playing hardball in negotiations, stalling to try to get a bidding war going, and using Man City's name to try to spook us, despite the fact City have the best number 6 in the world...

 

[Gooner Zig]

Nobody can tell me Tim Lewis wouldn't look better bald though. Can't take that guy seriously with a hairline that far back.

What's with Josh Kroenke chanelling his inner Jack Dorsey, needs to lay off the shrooms.

He's won a Super Bowl, Stanley Cup and NBA Championship since he debuted that look. He needs to keep it up so we can follow suit.

Then West Ham can put a 300M release clause.

There should be limitations on clauses also regarding the number

@Hunta boy Sami breaking a lot of news

Seeing this £100m talk and you've got to pay what you've got to pay for good players and there's inflation and all that jazz.

In my mind though it's still £15-20m for a very good player and £30m for a WC one.

Now you see Ward Prowse or whoever being priced at £50m

 

[Hunta]

Fee agreed tomorrow.

Medical Tuesday after England duty.

Media is always a bit behind, I reckon the bid we heard about happened months ago, next bid accepted weeks ago, Rice to Arsenal here we might go.

This is actually a good point, football transfers are so ridiculous these days I feel like no ones even flinched at some of these prices.

Not sure that’s allowed. You can value your player whatever you want, that’s why La Liga has crazy release clauses.

Why do you care about fees anyway? If your club is willing to pay it. Stan is good.

 

[Riou]

Does Ward Prowse do much outside of freekicks?

It's a very nice niche to have, but feel you need much more as a central midfielder...not surprised that despite being banging in like 10 freekicks per season, Southampton have always been a struggling side as he can't really control any games in midfield and doesn't even offer defensive power in midfield like Declan does either.

West Ham should really resist going after him as a Rice replacement as he's a big downgrade, can see they getting him though.

Me neither. I wonder if the club are desperate for CL status again and even a future sale.

 

[Batman]

I'll do a U-Turn on being mad about Havertz if the Rice deal gets rid of Nketiah.

 

[ArsenalInMyHeart]

I just think the 2nd offer will be submitted tonight

 

[Rasmi]

Looking back how crazy is the mudryk deal. In terms of production before the transfer it has to be the craziest deal ever

 

[Arsenio Venger]

20 year installments

It's 2023. 100 mill is the new 50 mill
