A model pro and a tryer. Thanks and good luck to him.

Good luck to him, but I don’t fully agree with those here saying he was a model pro. He was somewhat a hothead at times on the pitch, and while the passion was good, some could say Mediterranean, when you lose your head in the moment with emotions or whatever the lack of discipline is irresponsible for the team overall. Aggressiveness is good. Losing your head is not.

I meant model pro in terms of no off field nonsense, giving his best in training and on the pitch. I've never seen anyone lose it as much as Vieira and he was one of the very best.

Had a very good first seaaon with us. Sokratis became error prone at the start of his second season but then filled in well at RB for 3 consecutive matches and procduce more good peformances at RB than Bellerin had done in 2 seasons. Won the first match against Olympiacos with him and RB and unfortunately Arteta made the horrible mistake of putting Bellerin back in the second leg which ultimately cost us.

Sokratis has been an underrated player in his time here for us.

 

[Blood on the Tracks]

Bit of a weird move given he's only got 6 months left on his contract.

I'm sure we're sweetening the contract termination a bit financially for him to leave like this.

I can't complain though, good professional and solid player who unfortunately isn't suited to the style Arteta wants to play.

Really wierd why we haven't canceled his contract already so he free to chose team.

Has to be mutual I guess. In this Covid situation the player isn’t guaranteed of an instant contract, so without security might still want to pick up our wages through to summer.

I really liked him a lot, many fans were harsh calling him a bum etc. Lots of passion.

but have to say 18m was too much at that time considering he has played only 2 seasons for us.

Genoa would be good for him back where he started they fighting relegation every season changing managers for fun every 4-6 months lol

 

[dka1]

Good for him, he's a good defender and I don't think he was bad enough on the ball to be relegated from the squad.

If he signs then good luck to him.

Sokratis going to Fenner, so Genoa have to sign Mustafi... What a lad.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

.

Seem Sokratis not decided yet between Genoa or Fenerbache. Mustafi won't be moving to Genoa he played for Sampdoria it's thier rivals

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Sokratis about to reject Genoa for Real Betis yesterday he received the offer and he impressed about it tomorrow his agent to meet real Betis

He cost what 18m? Hopefully we get some fee and both parties move on.

It’s almost certainly going to be us ripping up his contract just like we did with Mkhitaryan.

 

[Tosker]

the view of my garden here in West Wales makes me fancy a move to Seville too

He cost 15m i don't think we'll get fee we'll mutually cancel his contract
