Not happy about Rodriguez going to Bayern, as it increases the chances of Sanchez staying at Arsenal, even if only to see out the final year of his deal. If they have Lacazette and Sanchez in the same side for next season they'll be very dangerous indeed.

That's exactly what I thought.

Think the only team that'd realistically pay what Arsenal want is City, tbf.

We've got Kane anyway, so all is irrelevant. They might as well give up.

€10m for two-year loan. €35.2m fee should they wish to purchase in 2019

Same fee as Gylfi...

High wages no doubt but Real are essentially giving him away.

Bayern are doing something similar with Douglas Costa and Juve but they have to buy him after the loan ends.

Yeah it does appear to be bad. Still, Robben and Ribery are getting to the end so they do need a possible superstar to fill those shoes - don't think Rodriguez alone covers that and he certainly doesn't offer them the direct threat that either of them do.

I'm still hoping for City to get desperate and go crazy with a Sanchez bid, I really don't think Kroenke would pass up on a 80m+ bid for a player they will lose for free a year later no matter how much Wenger says they won't sell to a rival.

Looks like Dani Alves is confirmed to PSG.

Levy already counting the mad papes.

If they add Lemar, big trouble

think there was a documentary on tv a few years back that showed exactly this. Yes, he's as sharp as a rubber dong off the pitch but it stated that on the pitch, his 'football brain' was so sharp it was ahead of 95% of the people he played with/against. Hence always being in the right place, playing the right pass, making the right decision, etc was down to this and being pretty 'stupid and ordinary' off the pitch was irrelevant as on it he was razor sharp.

But he shagged a 60 year old hooker when he was an 18 year old millionaire. Is that a sign of stupidity or immaturity?

Looks like Chelsea pretty much got Willianed by Lukaku. Wonder if Chelsea Community is full of posters slagging off Abramovic for fucking about and not getting it done?

Chavski got Raiola-ed. Hopefully, the eight figure chunk of cash paid to Raiola for doing Sweet Fuck All will lead to an official investigation. But I'm not holding my breath.

But yes, it was a last minute dotcom job. With Willian, my recollection is that it was Chavski's oligarch owner dealing directly with Anzhi's oligarch owner that led to us losing out.

I'm quite surprised Mourinho hasn't made a bid for Willian yet. He loved him when he was managing Chavski, and he wasn't a first team starter under Conte.
