Nothing new, so I'm a bitch a bit here.
Its a bit strange to me why some people wonder why a lot of supporters are so unhappy with the club.
I mean seriously, lets just try and be neutral for a bit, I ask, is there a club in the UK more tone deaf than us currently?
I mean just consider the current scenario we find ourselves where:
Eze, Palace's star player who not only delivered most of the season but on their biggest night ever, is being excluded from their marketing campaign apparently because he's been unsettled by our interest.....
Goku, facing sanctions and threats from Sporting, seeing as they're not honouring their word to let him leave and come to us after agreeing to take a paycut and not invoke the penalty clause...
And then, Noni Madueke, a player which the fanbase never coveted despite being in our face regularly, a player who's already flattening at such a young age, a player who has made no sacrifice or done nothing to ingratiate himself with us, this player, yes this player, is the one likely to be announced as our marquee attacker after about 7 days of interest.....
I mean, come on, we have it on record Eze is a gooner and actually shed tears when we let him go, he refers to it as his saddest moment....while Noni, well see him smiling here about being a Londoner and joining the biggest club in London

Honestly, I think describing our suits as tone deaf, is the nicest possible thing we can say about them, and all things considered, they deserve more than the blowback they are getting already for the silly way they are prioritising and lining up their decisions.
I think you do have to question the club when it comes to Goku.
We are quibbling over 5m fucking euros but willing to give Chelsea £50m for Madueke who is a backup.
Just get the main deal done ffs
100%, came here to say the same thing
If he played for Chelsea we'd probably be happy to pay £80m for him
Just get it done ffs and put him out of his misery
Totally agree with this too
Henry Winter of the Telegraph reporting we’ve pretty much reached a fee
The Sporting chairman Frederico Varandas was a bit of a hard arse over Pedro Porro when Spurs wanted to buy him
End of the day, are they going to really let Gyokeres rot in the reserves for three years.
Comparing this to Madueke I think doesn’t make a lot of sense as the sticking point is how much money Sporting get from us up front and how much of the money is guaranteed rather than part of minimum appearance clauses etc. I think Madueke is largely going to be made up of adds on, and it’s largely so Chelsea can satisfy FFP conditions (though it does pain me that we seem to be bailing Chelsea out when it comes to problems of their own making).
I think likely both moves going to be completed next week, I don’t want Gyokeres but Sesko is going nowhere and we need a striker so I guess we have to take this massive risk, but will all be for naught if we don’t sign someone like Eze in the creative role otherwise I think Gyokeres will spend most of his time being crowded out. I personally don’t like what he’s doing at Sporting anyway, I think it smacks of desperation which I don’t like and if a player was acting like that at Arsenal we’d all be horrified.
Interesting from Perry Groves on talksport:
“My sources tell me, and I’m not making this up, Viktor Gyokores was a gooner as a little kid. He’s always supported Arsenal and it’s well documented that he wants to come to us”
So both him and Eze are gooners but we're messing about over loose change
If Arteta fails to land both these players then he's going to be surprised at the amount of negativity tbh
Now it makes sense why we're treating him the way we are.
Effing tone deaf club.
Yep, we need to stop pissing about playing hard ball and just get these deals done if we really want the players.
I think in other windows the fans wouldn’t be so bothered but there is so much riding on this one being right that no one will find failure acceptable.
