It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Fair enough.
Normally the club and 3rd party own a % of the player so we'd need to buy both of them out, that could end up costing a lot more than he's worth as both parties will want to profit from him.
Where has all this 3rd party mambo jumbo come from?
All I've read about this player is how we are favourites to sign him. Surely the papers would know about this 3rd party malarkey.
Yeah that would be the disappointing but like you say if it's the rules. My disappointment is due more to the fact I'd be excited to see a skillful Brazilian at the club, I love the way the top Brazilians dribble and beat players with outrageous bits of skill.
Given the prevalence of this kind of arrangement in South America, you would have thought we'd have done our homework before getting this far.
So either everything is already in hand, or we've bungled like transfer amateurs.
This lad supposedly played a blinder last night and set up both goals. I'll be quite disappointed if we don't buy him.
Hopefully Gilberto is doing the right thing.
With Atletico Mineiro winning the Copa Libertadores, that's another to add on to the (rather pointless and silly) number of trophies won list by players leaving Arsenal.
Gilberto

would you really? how much do you know about this player? personally ive never heard of him before the links appeared, and judging by fans reactions on twitter many of them havnt either.
ive never seen him spoken about on here before last week, nor mentioned in the press or other rumour sights before, yet it seems people will moan if they we dont sign him. the vast majority wont have heard of him, yet as soon as links appear people will be pissed off if we dont sign him.
