It’s literally a one year contract with a 700m salary. :lol:
Saudi’s are just doing it because they can.

Arteta says the squad is too big.
Well I hope we can now get decent money back for Viera after that goal, quite a stunner.
Squad is definitely too big. Unfortunately I can see Vieira more likely to leave on loan
Interesting that palace have shown interest in Nketiah, if we sold him i wonder if that would mean we’d keep Balogun or if we sold both whether we’d go into the market for a striker….wouldn’t mind taking a punt for Ferran Torres
We've GOT to sell Nketiah if we get the chance- he's shite and we can get some money to buy someone taller who knows where the goal is - really we should also keep Balogun but clearly Arteta's so weedded to Jesus that Balogun isn't satisfied he's going to get a fair shout
I could be wrong but I’m not sold on Balogun, I just don’t feel like it would be a big deal to sell him. Nketiah I don’t mind but ultimately his level is Crystal Palace. What I will say for Jesus is that again only going by the highlights I’ve seen of the Barca game is that I saw the Jesus from the first half of the season. But I’d prefer a more consistent goalscorer for sure
I don’t rate Eddie that highly but I think he’s settled and happy to fight for a spot. He did a good job post-World Cup to be fair to him. You need to have players like that who accept time on the bench because there will always be a pecking order.
We can get a good fee for Balogun despite the fact he’s untested in the PL. Stick a sell-on fee on his transfer incase he does end up being the real deal.
Players have got to go and money needs to be recouped, that’s just the way it is.
But Eddie isn't an impact player from the bench, he's literally useless and having him provides Arteta with an option to take which frankly I'd rather he didn't have
I honestly can't imagine any of the other 'big' teams having a main backup striker as hopeless as Eddie, they'd offload - if Palace want him we should sell for sure - if peopel aren't convinced by Balogun then fine we can sell both and get the taller target man up front we all agree the squad needs
If we are a club that wants to be a top team in England, Nketiah should not be allowed near the club.
