Messi hasn’t reported for training because he doesn’t consider himself part of the squad anymore.
Burning his bridges, just let him go tbf.

Most acrimonious falling out of a club legend ever?

Mkhi joins Roma permanently.
Huge chunk of wages off the bill there.
What an awful swap deal that turned out to be with Alexis.
Swap deals rarely happen.
Us and Man Utd proved why.
We've basically paid him off to leave, it would have cost us a fair few million.Originally Posted by McNamara That Ghost...
What worries me about this rebuild is the difficulty we seem to be having shifting players. Most seem to be linked to loan aways, even younger players like Holding. Ive not been following the Kola, Torreira or Sokratis transfer news...but by all accounts it seems all these guys are loans with obligations to buy, I dread to think of the pitiful fees we will get for any of these guys.
The likes of Mustafi and Ozil at this stage appear to be in the "untransferable" bracket, in that no team is daft enough to make an offer, let alone match their current insane wages. In Ozil's case, I don't think we are in a position to pay him off, it will cost us millions.
The sad thing is we genuinely appear to have some kind of sensible plan to improve / rebuild the squad...but it hinges on outs. Where this becomes a bottleneck is that we have largely a squad of duds who are by all accounts seem very difficult to shift. Even some of our more what you would think would be sort after players, seem to be attracting little to no interest.

Spot on with everything you said, we can't shift any of these guys unless we pay them off or loan them out and we can't spend much before we sell, it's a shocking state of affairs and just shows how bad our transfer dealings have been.
Are there any other big clubs out there (or indeed PL clubs) who struggle to shift players like we do, I mean Elneny is still here! I'm amazed that with todays agent we can't shift any of these players.
Mhkitaryan we paid off to leave it seems, Holding Newcastle are only interested in a loan, even Kolasinac Schalke only seem to have an interest in loaning (this is the guy that came from there and was apparently good?). The others noone is interested in it seems.

the mistake is trying to get any money for somone like Mustafi - just get rid for free, then at least we're not paying his wages, neither do we have to look at his ugly face again
Gabriel is official
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
