Why?

Just waiting for Tuchel to text me back

Aubamayang to Barcelona is reportedly a free transfer. Does any club give away as many players on free transfers as Arsenal.

[bizzle10]

Aubamayang going to barca so doing an Odemwingie and sitting in a club carpark can work out

[Anubis]

Arsenal sign a trusty centre back.

 

 

[Anubis]

Ha ha, the cheeky bastards (Aubamayang and Barca) were trying to get Arsenal to cover part of his wages.

Soooo has the Carvalho deal died on its arse!

Yeah, too lightweight apparently.

[Leyton388]

Seeing Barca on their arse is fantastic and it all started with that night at Anfield which broke them. 

[Captain Turdseye]

What the fuck are Arsenal playing at? They could have reintegrated him back into the team and got a fee for him in the summer.

How do Chelsea manage FFP and wage bill, their squad is choc full of top end players.

FFP in the PL has been 'eased' due to covid impact. Effectively, clubs can make a bigger loss over a 3 year rolling period which benefits clubs like city and chelsea who have wealthy backers.

He's a 32 year old on 350k a week. He's been shite for a while now, they must be desperate just to get him off their wage bill.

As shite as he’s been, he was still their best player. 

[Megadrive Man]

I think they'd have struggled to get a fee and a club to pay him similar wages.

Can't wait for Tyler to chuckle to himself uttering something about Trusty right foot.

Arteta is a strange one, sometimes I think he hasn't a clue what he's at and other times like this situation it does look he does know what's he doing. If Aubameyang is a bad egg he needs to go, regardless of how good he is. 

[Carvalho Diablo]

Not remotely arsed if the young Carvalho deal has fallen through. £5m saved.

Really surprised that Nat Phillips has had to drop down to the championship. I thought he'd get a better offer than Bournemouth. 

 

Is there still time for him to win Championship Player of the Year?

Depends if Carvalho stays at Fulham or joins us, he might have to settle for second place.

Now that Bournemouth are going to keep 18 out of 18 clean sheets, I'd say that it is a shoe in. 

[Anubis]

Origi checking if the transfer deadline has passed.

 

[Harry Squatter]

Loads of offers for Karius this window.

[Anubis]

Looks like a Neco loan may be used to grease the wheels on the Carvalho deal.

[Freddo]

Carvalho deal agreed says Joyce. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Get in! Carvalho is one for the future. Still rough around the edges, but he's got a high ceiling. Klopp will help him develop his all round game, and he has the potential to be a mainstay of the side for a decade.*

 

*I've never seen him play 

[Daisy]

Seemed we were pretty desperate to get him 

[Harry Squatter]

Apparently Real Madrid, Bayern, Dortmund and Barcelona wanted him.
