Kostas Manolas

[Polar Bear]

Manolas is solid, every time I have seen him he has played well and is tough in the tackle and blocking. I can't see him being cheap though, I remember before when we was linked with him it was very expensive and that was few years ago, can't imagine what it is now with the prices..

lets do wenger maths

if the player cost 50 lets just offer 25, if they ask 30 lets just offer 25,000,001 and so on

The fact that Roma are out and he isn't cup tied for the Champions League makes him an attractive prospect. Not sure what he would go for. Won't be cheap but who is these days.

 

[every little thing]

we sell Gervinho and loan szeczesny to ROMA. It's they do us a favour

That was doing them a favour?

 

[DanDare]

And we know the scout was watching him how?

 

[samshere]

Why would we be scouting him at this stage of the transfer window?

We're preparing our interest for the consideration of beginning discussion about the player 2 years from now.

initially, i want to type it's time they do us a favour...dont know how become It's they do us a favour....but both are right though

Buy this guy well worth the money stop pissing about!!!

Everytime Manolas touched the ball the scout would feverishly scribble something on his note book. Observers took it to mean that our Italian scout was keen on Manolas. I have it on good info that this is what he was he was doodling.

[truth_hurts]

Can't imagine Roma getting big money for him. 25-30m tops.

 

[Trilly]

Claiming a scout was there, not just some "interest" bs... might be something in this then. Especially with Mustafi looking a bit less likely.

Scouting with two weeks left in the window. GTFO Arsenal.

I would usually put this down as poor journalism but this is the type of stupid sh*t that we tend to do.

More likely that a scout was there watching Scz.

There was talk of a 30-35M release clause a while back, which makes him the better player to go for if Valencia won't budge.

Don't know his value but i know he's going to kostas

On a more serious note, why are we not further than the scouting fase? Window closes in a weeks time ffs. We should have done all our main signings at the begin of the transferwindow so that they could have a good pre season and get used to the club, tactics and teammates. Yet here we are again looking for bargain deals in the last week of the transferwindow. Cuz everybody know, in the last week all the prices magically drop.

At this point i'm not even mad anymore. I just can't understand why we are the only top team that goes around their business like this. Keep making the same mistakes and expecting different results. That's just stupid.

 

[Hunta]

He was rubbish last night, it's also well known that if Roma sell him before 2017 then Olympiakos get a massive percentage of the fee, so he's not moving now.

He'll be on the move in January or later, and we won't get him with the clubs that'll be in for him.

That looks like Chris Waddle, no wonder our scouting is shyte. Actually No 1 also resembles Chris Waddle

 

[Lollipoppins]

The club were probably there scouting him alright but perhaps for the jan window?
