What would that achieve? Kroenke would still keep him on. Might inconvenience Ty a bit, he'd have to attend a permanent 24/ 7 vigil at the graveside. And Neville might make a few weird girly noises on TV. Other than that, nothing would change.Originally Posted by GP

Begs the question that if we knew Ox was leaving why has he been playing every game if he's not going to be part of the club (apparently we knew he was out the door).
We now have another one of our better players going to a big English club, no other big club does this, should take a leaf out of Liverpools book and try saying no for once (maybe not when they only have 1 year left on their contract though).
That would suggest any of that is intended
Wenger is a purely reactive individual, hasn't been proactive with his approach in years. Buys a proven striker this summer after years and years of him seemingly knowing that's what we need.
Selling the likes of the Ox and Sanchez reactively because he realised we are going to actually lose them for nothing. I think he genuinely believed despite what has happened in the past that they would sign new contracts.
Mustafi took him by surprise.
Buying in the summer would suggest planning ahead, and the only thing he plans ahead with is for a future that never comes (the token 17 year old who gets offloaded about five years later).
Cause its clear Arsene never wanted him
Yep.
Perez like Mustafi & Gabriel was signings primarily driven by the data analytics team the club (StatDNA) instead being a player that Wenger personally chased. Which why Wenger's never taken a shine to any of those as has sold or is planning to sell them.
The real funny thing regarding Mustafi is that we could have signed Johnny Evans for 5 million last year but instead opted for Mustafi at 35 million instead. A year later we seem to be desperately trying to replace Mustafi for Evans who's now valued at least 25 million +.
You just got laugh really.
The agents certainly do.
Can't recall where I read it this morning, but somebody was saying the reason we didn't sign Mbappe on a free a couple of years back was because we wouldn't pay the agents, who just so happened to be the family. 6 million quid was the figure mentioned.

Come on Arsenal sell at least 4 first team players, not including fringe players and don't buy anyone.
I would love to see that, and then 16th would be on.
Wenger would have to leave after that, surely.
Just think, if Arsenal had won at Anfield there would have been none of this, every cloud and all that.
So according to something I saw on another board. Wenger didn't want Lacazette, he was forced upon him
Is that the new "according to a bloke down the pub"?
