Totally agree with what we have done. Should let him play if they agree to drop the clause. But this is going to hurt future transfers with them considering they produce good talents regularly.

Yeah, it's a shame for him and might affect his view of Arsenal somewhat but paying them 2.5m to let them have him play a game for them and maybe get injured

No

Why are we always in the middle of these cheap moves, keeping strong relationships with clubs is more important than 2.5mil pounds or whatever it was?!

We did the same with Bordeaux in the Koscielny deal. Pathetic.

The €2.5m was requested by Arsenal not St Etienne, as part of structuring the transfer fee. If you think about it why would they take the risk of not getting that money up front if he doesn’t play 17 games?

The final is a huge deal for player and club. I understand the frustration of both. We would’ve budgeted for that payment at the start of the season, but due to covid are seeing it as a way to recoup some cash.

I understand that too but if roles were reversed we’d all be ****ed off.

Nothing wrong on our part if they won’t waive or lower the fee.

Say he gets a long term injury? We’ve then effectively doubled that 2.5m, when wages are taken into account, for a match we that had nothing to do with us.

The club do a lot wrong, not being pressured into paying to have our player be involved in another’s teams game is not one of them.

Good job Arsenal


Oh god saliba learning from Luiz
Luiz is great for the locker room and teach some good things to Saliba. No matter how much we laugh at Luiz and most of time it's deserved. He still is 2x Euorpa Winner, 1x CL Winner, part of Brazil squad who made WC semi final.

That's great exp to teach to Saliba. I'm also sure Saliba is smart enough to see Luiz weaknesses and learn not to pick up those habits.

Luiz is good teacher for Saliba.
