✍️ OFFICIAL Joe Willock (Out)

[Barry]

Why would any player agree to a 6 year contract? It's so dumb.

Exactly what I was thinking, no wonder they were struggling to agree it

 

[Hunta]

Willock has chosen Newcastle over The Arsenal.

Teta can’t be stopped. He’s turned the weans against us.

 

[Penn_]

Nothing like selling a seven in seven midfielder when that’s the area you’re lacking goals.

 

[Arai]

GL Joe!!

Previously tweet by Pete, ayeeee..

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Watts said the club would have liked him to stay but anything from 25M and above they selling because they see him a squad member not key member.

 

[Dial Square 1886]

What does that even mean Mikel?

Just drop the mystical speak and tell us how it is. He is being sold!!

 

[AberGooner]

Sad news but not unexpected. Just when there's some good news with the Ramsdale move breaking down it gets cancelled out by this one.

Good luck to him though, being the main man at a PL club aged 21 is no mean feat.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Well, all the posters on Kroenke's payroll begging for his sale can rejoice now. Hope you enjoy the minor fee.

25M for a squad player? Are you mad?

 

[Nacho]

25M for a squad player? Are you mad?

To do f*cking what with?

Ramsdale?
Tammy?
Allow me man.

That isn't the point. Why would you keep a player as 3rd or 4th choice on the bench, hardly playing when you've been offered 25 million?

Yay let's keep a bench warmer worth 25 million. Awful logic.

I couldn't give a sh*t about Arsenal's 25 mil.

Okay flip it then. Why would you begrudge a player getting regular game time I'm the PL at a different club?

I don't, I'm happy for him.

Sure most of our current squad would 🤣

tbf that says far more about the state of our squad!!

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Orny also confirm Willock signed 6 years contract.

 

[Riou]

To be honest, Lokonga has shown more in the 1 game I have seen of his, of what I like in a CM, that I have seen in Joe.

Willock is a good player, but wouldn't trust him in a midfield 2, unless playing 3/5 at the back, whatever you want to call it...good goalscorer, but don't see enough in his game to make me believe he will be a player we miss.

Feel he's s little overrated on here, due to being a Hale End kid...he isn't on the same level of Bukayo and Emile, imo.

With Partey, Sambi and even Xhaka...this is a good deal for us.

 

[drippin]

In addition Willock had 2 years in contract. He would have needed to renew and it is likely he wanted promises of good game time. He is not stupid.

 

[BobP]

Orny also confirm Willock signed 6 years contract.

That's actually crazy man.

 

[carter777]

Newcastle have tied down most of their key players to 6 year deals. Hayden and Saint-Maximin signed 6 year deals.

I would doubt Willock's signed likewise without there being a very manageable release clause in there somewhere.

 

[Hunta]

Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. 😢
