Folarin Balogun: Balogone

[truth_hurts]

There is a starter way to do this - give him a tasty signing on fee and/or loyalty bonuses. You can't be giving an unproven kid 40k a week.

I thought Martinelli was on around 4tk and Saka 80k, no?

 

[Gooner416]

That's Saka's agent's problem. The fee is fair as far as Balogun's concerned.

Same agent.

 

[Rimaal]

Same agent.

Better and better. He'll use one to leverage the other. I wouldn't worry about Saka, if I were you.

EDUUUU

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Something positive he should stay after watching the scrubs we have upfront.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

He have to fancy his chances next season laca Nektiah gone we likely signing striker he'll be part of this squad

Give him some PL game time this season, might as well.

Yes him and Martinelli should get more minutes the league is over and our remaining fixtures is good test for them

EDUUUU

Actual floods of tears, Teta in ffs.

Seriously though, if he commits he should be starting for the rest of the season in the league. Let’s see what he’s all about before making a decision on him staying or going out on loan next season.

Let's not get too excited, 'Mikel convinced him' aka we're paying him the 40k a week he wanted and the agent had everyone on strings.

Who cares?

I just said the same over on the Arteta thread.

I am very very happy Balogun is staying. Ecstatic in fact.

 

[OnlyOne]

Who cares?

You think he's worth 40k a week?

 

[Rimaal]

You think he's worth 40k a week?

I think he is, and perhaps more. He's a risk well worth taking.

 

[Macho]

You think he's worth 40k a week?

Seeing as the player's salaries don't keep me up at night, yes.

Interesting, might stick you both on ignore.

Hope my young guy took that w-nker Edu to the cleaners and secured the bag.

Hope he got 80 or 90k.

 

[Maybe]

We can't get Martinelli starting atm

 

[pikey2000]

will be interesting to see how this pans out, there is a window of opportunity there for him now, similar to Nketieh's opportunity over the last couple of seasons, can he make a big enough impact with bit part game time? We shall see.

Is there anyone on here who has watched him extensively at youth level that can give me the low down on how good he is and what attributes does he bring to the table that make you think he might be a success where others like Nketieh have failed?

Nketieh scoring for fun at all levels apart from first team, is there a chance Balogun will be the same?
