Thomas Partey

[HairSprayGooners]

the fact we are offering 25m euro outright shows we have money so people can back off with that now.

Hopefully we can strike a deal and I think we eventually will.

Then sell to buy kinda summer.

 

[boonthegoon]

I'd love if we can get this guy. But obv we are not going to pay 50m. Just go after cheaper options. Sangare might be cheap. Toulouse got relegated as well. We need to set our priorities right. CB equally important. Creative players even more.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

At least Mike McGrath and his “Arsenal likely to sign nobody because they don’t want to upset their players” can get in the bin now.

Upset players that lead the club to worst league finish since 95/96.

Don’t see us matching the clause. Might have to do what we did with Torreira and bid over it so we can pay in instalments. The question is, will they be willing sellers at that point. They have no real need to sell unless the player pushes for it.

We could address two positions with two rubbish players agreed.

Rubbish players? Spending a lot of money on a player doesn’t guarantee success.

If we address the two positions with Tierney-esque signings for 25m then it’s excellent business.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

I'm not having this go after cheaper players lark. We should have the money. We can't pay 50m outright for any footballer.

35m plus Guendouzi is fair, this is just the start of negotiations. It will get done. You dont just stop at the first hurdle.

We need Partey. We can also buy two positions with that sort of money.

I think we can convince them by paying big money upfront like 30-35M but Partey will have to ask to leave to make this deal happen at the moment he seem focusing in their CL campaign

 

[boonthegoon]

So this is what they have rejected

 

[blaze_of_glory]

I hear Xhaka is a great player... Why would they not be interested in Xhaka? Why would anyone not be interested in Xhaka?

We're not interested in losing him. Heard Mikel's told the board he's only here as long as Granit is.

 

[Hunta]

Will need to be Guendouzi and £40m otherwise it ain’t happening.

No chance we pay the clause up front.

 

[2Smokeyy]

We need Partey. We can also buy two positions with that sort of money.

Equally we need to address other positions too.

You can’t have Partey playing in front of Mustafi and Luiz - no thanks.

In what world would he be playing in front of those two?

Its likely to be Saliba and Mari/Luiz.

Look at Artetas words, hes saying we need a massive amount of creativity. Partey isn't that, if we are actively looking to sign Partey rest assured that Arteta also wants creativity.

 

[say yes]

Think we should ban @Rex Banter if Atleti don’t sell us Partey. Great poster but I’m getting a little sick of his little ‘Atleti don’t negotiate’ routine.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I don't think they want any of our players Guendouzi fit in Simeone tactics a very energetic guy who love to wind up other teams and will suit his defensive and pressing game. but seem they either value him less than 20M or they just don't want him.

 

[Camron]

Don't they need a new keeper soon?

In outright cash we wouldn't get more than 30m euro for Guendouzi. So it will likely take 35-40m euro and Douzi for them to deal.

 

[Riou]

Include Matt Macey in a swap, you are saying?

Partey +20M for Emi and we can talk.

Ornstein warming his fingers up as we speak, incoming thunder bastard of a tweet.
