FFS I hope Wenger doesn't piss off Sven by undermining his decisions. That's the reason he left Dortmund in the first place - him and Tuchel fell out specatuarily.
One's a talented operators who's in tune with modern football - the other is a relic of an old era.
further to that, although he could be taking the piss:
Quote:
Aubameyang has dropped a big transfer hint on Instagram as Arsenal ready a bid for the Borussia Dortmund man.
The Gunners are preparing to table an opening offer for Aubameyang of £35m plus Olivier Giroud and are confident a deal is possible.
And speaking to Dortmund team-mate Jadon Sancho on Instagram, Aubameyang pleaded with his friend to take him to London.
And Aubameyang said: "Can you bring me to London one day? I don't know, just for fun. Because you told me London is on fire!"
Sancho spent his youth career at Watford and Manchester City before signing his first professional deal at Borussia Dortmund in August.
The Bordeaux president has stated they have had no talks with Arsenal at all and Dortmund have also said they have had no bids for Aubameyang. Considering Mikhi will probably reject us, it looks like we'll have to field Iwboi and Welbeck for the rest of the season.
Is this one of those times when we sell out best player then have some marketing BS about some top players coming and it never happens and we end up with noone or some nobody?
Seems the Malcolm, Mikhi and Aubameyang deals are all in the balance at the moment, really wouldn't put it past us, you can't trust this club to do anything right.
We're negotiating with that fat pig agent of Mikhi's hence the complexities apparently as he's trying to get the biggest cut possible for himself.
So basically everyone is leaving and we are signing everyone.
#FakeNews
It's what the media does best.
Last summer Lemar was in and out of London like a rampant rabbit, according to the media. Deal Done! Lemar - Welcome to Arsenal! But in reality all that had really happened was we'd lowballed a few bids and the deal was nowhere. Hell, we were even signing Mbappe at one point, that's how ridiculous it was. Now we're signing Aubemayang and Malcolm and bringing in Mikytarian and the rest.
Reading between the lines, sounds to me like the real business done in this window will be relegating Wenger to the sidelines. If we can manage that then it's a good window. If all we end up with is internal strife then all we've succeeded in doing is making a bigger mess.
Alexis will go. We know that much. Looks like Theo will go too and Coquelin has already gone. We've signed some Greek kid for 2.2 mill who might be ready to step up some time in 2020, although with the state of our defence we'll probably throw him in to sink or swim. Sounds like we get 20 mill for Alexis after the agent pockets 10-15 mill. Sounds like 20 mill for Theo. Coquelin, 12.5 mill.
So we're about plus 50 mill at the moment. Giroud's worth 25 mill I suppose. So that takes us to 75 mill. And that's what we have to play with, because we know we won't be spending any of that precious trove in the bank. That's needed for "stuff" they never explain.
75 mill for Malcolm, Auba and Miki? That doesn't add up at all. Auba will probably end up costing 75 mill alone, once we reach trolley dash, desperation point. Malcolm is 45 mill now, and you can add to that as the window winds down. Miki would eat up a chunk of the Alexis deal. We'd have to stick another 50 mill on top to genuinely get these deals done and that's never happening in a January window. Not if Wenger gets his way.
In the best circumstances you hear Wenger going on about how he likes the player, how he has qualiteeeeee. What's the chances of signing a player he doesn't like? And that's where the transfer window is for us this January. Who wins? Sven or Wenger. And supposedly the new team hasn't even started work yet. According to the media.
It's all smoke and mirrors to keep the fans distracted while they set up another round of profit taking in the transfer window. Wait and see.
