We really shouldn't sell, unless he is very unhappy. We got no credible backup for Zinchenko.

I don't see them paying that much for him, and we still have to find the replacement. I guess at the end you have to trust the management on how they deal with this. He is too good to sit on the bench, but a deal needs to be right for the club too.Lets say we got 40-50m for Tierney...
A 20-25m replacement player who stylistically fits better than Tierney is a better option than Tierney.
Tierney is absolutely a stellar LB who does traditional LB things at a Top 4 level. But it is clear that Arteta doesn't value that in the ways he wants to play football. We've literally watched him start or bring on Tomiyasu ahead of him, even when KT was available.
Alternatively, if you could get a player of Tierney's style for half of what you could sell Tierney for, again considering that they'd be a backup or rotation player, you do that too. Because you'd have to be 100% sure Tierney was not only happy being 2nd choice, but also being played in a way he's not suited to.
He has no future here. He is only used as emergency or resting Zinchenko. The manager don’t rate him. Even Tomiyasu started ahead of him as lbIf he is going this summer, would like to see us get at least £40-45 million for him. 3 years to go on his contract and a regular in his international side. Saudi Castle can cough up if they really want him.
Yes so £45 million is a fair price in the current market. The club has to run a hard sale here and not give him away for peanuts because Arteta doesn’t fancy him. He would be first choice at the majority of clubs up and down the country.He has no future here. He is only used as emergency or resting Zinchenko. The manager don’t rate him.

Not playing devalues players. We won’t get what he’s probably really worth if they were trying to get a first team regular. £30m-odd is more likely.Yes so £45 million is a fair price in the current market.

They paid 45m for Antony Gordon who is rubbish. Tierney is a genuine qaulity player. If Newcastle are serious, they can offer a serious fee. After all, they are backed by King Abdul and now look like they have CL money.I don't see them paying that much for him, and we still have to find the replacement.

The source is probably BS but if there is any thing to it I would not mind Tierney going to City, They have sold us a couple of decent player in Jesus and Zinny, so selling them Tierney could help to sweeten any future deals.
Man City move to hijack move for Newcastle target
Football insider can exclusively reveal that Man City have made moves to sound out the possiblitly of signing Arsenal full back Kieran Tierney.www.footballinsider247.com
They would jump at selling Tierney to City, Arsenal always ***** to them. But it’s interesting that Pep rates Tierney more than Zinny.
Hopefully we don't sell to them.
Interesting point. Sometimes Walker plays as a third centre back. KT could do that on the left.KT is a quality player there’s no surprise top PL teams are being linked with him.
I think he still is of massive use to us, the issue he’s had this season is that we play with 3 “defenders” and 1 build up guy at the back, and it’s always fallen on him to be a build up guy rather than a “defender”.
I think if we get someone next season that can offer what Zinechenko does when we have the ball from right back, it will allow KT or maybe even Kiwior game time as the “LCB” when we have the ball.
