🤝 Deal agreed Martin Zubimendi

[Goonger]

Real Madrid, Liverpool and City were all after this guy - meanwhile on AM: s*it player, doesn't move the needle, bang average...

Spoiler: FARZAD STYLE RANT

Some of you guys are like many women out there.
If you watch telly they get mad because you don't socialise with your friends. When you go out for a drink with friends they're mad at you because you came home late.
If you eat too much they'll get mad and tell you that you need to lose weight. If you don't eat a lot they'll get mad because they think that their cooking isn't good enough.
Theyll get mad at you if you don't buy them a present. When you finally do buy a present they get mad because it's too expensive.

Basically what I was trying to say with my earlier post about the João Neves opinions, but you put it much more eloquently!

Good

More confirmation from Socidad media. This one is done.

Interesting, this confirms Pool were indeed in the same stage but Zubimendi backed down at Real Sociedad's request. So not done yet, specially with his idol Xabi confirmed for Madrid and talking about him.

Jorginho and Partey are leaving in the summer genius.

Okay, but Jesus tore his ACL in January, and Havertz is out with a long-term injury. Why aren't we prepping for a CF then?

r/soccer say he's crap now he's signing for us instead of Liverpool

There are serious links to Gyokeres and feels like we have done a lot of work for Sesko. We will obviously be bringing in a new CF.

R/anything generally sucks.

I was being facetious in my initial post. Provided we bring in the forwards before preseason, so they have enough time to settle, I don't care about the Zubimendi announcement.

What's soccer anyway.

Please god please, let him go to Real such we can go for Tchouameni or Camavinga ...

Xhaka replacement:
Havertz - 65m
Merino - 30m

TPiddy replacement:
Rice - 100m
Zubimendi - 50m

Total: 250m

You ruined my whole ****ing day.

 

[TromsoGooner]

Kind of a mystery player. I believe the hype because top clubs seem to rate him and being a regular in Spain midfield speaks for itself.

But everything he does looks so boring and safe and his stats are pretty average.

Exactly how I feel. Watched quite a few Soceidad-games this season and he has often looked very underwhelming. But when you`re wanted by both Arsenal and Liverpool ( possibly Real and Bayern in the past too) and plays regularly for Spain, you must be a pretty good player.

As one of the Rice at 6 gang I can't pretend to be excited, but it's a decent signing. Arteta has been chasing him for years, so he'll hopefully have a plan for him and at least we know that Jeorginho-Rice midfield which he should be replicating worked and was probably better than Yellow box-Rice partnership this year.

so we're actually gonna trigger his release clause, so it'll be a payment in one go ? very strange and a bad new if true

This is just the start, we are going to do the same with Garcia for the back up GK spot and then people will be surprised when we'll be financially limited the rest of the window.

@viktor Rice also posseses elite ball carrying abilities

yes when in his first season at arsenal but not his second season 24/25 (we barely see rice carrying ball through channel like he did last season) maybe arteta did not allow that

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Socidad seem making zubi last days depressing they getting hell of beating against A.Madrid

4-0 haha

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

4-0 haha

forget Gyokeres and buy this Norwegian guy

 

[KrissKringle]

Are we getting a discount for this 4-0 beating Sociedad is getting? I'm not even sure this bloke is worth 60 mil, tbh.

Doesn't seem to stand out from a defensive pov, nor does he create any attacks from deep.

Sociedad don't really play with a striker since Isak. They play Oyarzabal who for me is a better left winger/attacking midfielder.

zubimendi defense skills really poor imo, imagine bruno G vs zubimendi at emirates and st james park
