Maybe Balogun’s lack of chances also suggests the club feel like he is leaving regardless, so no point in integrating him.
Fuck knows but it would be a huge shame to lose the kid. We need a fresh face up front but at least Martinelli is back now and hopefully hits the ground running soon.
Yeah, feels like a bit of a Mexican stand-off - Balogun won’t sign unless he gets chances, and the club won’t give him chances unless he commits.
Honestly, I’m not sure there’s enough chances we could offer him now anyway. Would giving him Nketiah’s chances make a difference? I think you’d be talking about pinching game time from Lacazette, Aubameyang or Martinelli for it to be enough to sway him, and even then he might want assurances that a couple of those guys will be moving on this summer. Not impossible, but tough.
Typical Dumb shit from the people running this club.
Just put something in the contract guaranteeing x number of games for a season or two, to be reviewed based on performances, and I'm sure he will sign.
Why do they make everything so fucking hard
I think you grossly underestimate the sheer stupidity of the mongs running this club. These fools couldn't prosper selling drinking water in the Sahara desert. They would tell thirsty travellers that they should pay now and get their water at the end of the journey.
Hot rumours of Ozil having agreed a 3,5 year contract with Fenerbache. Could it be true.?
Let it be so

Make 2mrw better than 2day
I normally discount any rumours from Turkey, but this does seem to have legs. Wonder if we'll be subsidising salary until the summer in a loan to buy deal.
Do we still have to wait until the summer until he fucks off, or is he going now?
Unclear at this stage I think.
I was expecting him to take every penny of the contract we gave him so would be quite surprised if he did leave now.
Either way I guess we’ll end up subsidising his next 6 months, so it probably won’t translate into extra January budget.
I almost don’t care at this point - he’s just too divisive and distracting to keep him around.
Agreed, I just want him gone. It's so boring now!
