Rumours flying around that Aubameyang has handed in a transfer request and that his agent wants him to leave in January after the Chelsea defeat. If we lose him we are in serious trouble, it also coincides with recalling Nketiah.
It was always going to be an impossible task to keep him after appointing Arteta.
think regardless of who we appointed it is going to be difficult to keep Auba unless the appointment came with 10 points as well.
we don't have to get rid of him in January but agree to let him go in the summer if he continues to put in the performances.
laca has gone off the boil, so we will not score any goals.
We are not a club you need to hand a transfer request in to get a move.
Also, we're bringing Nketiah back to loan him elsewhere.
Don't put it past them, apparently he wants out and won't sign a new contract, his agent is lining him up for big clubs like Barca and Real and the club know they'll get the most money if they sell now when he has a year and a half left on his contract and is 6 months younger than they would in the summer when we'd be desperate to sell.
I can see this happening, we're being linked with a move to bring Giroud back as well (oh dear). To be honest this board doesn't seem to know anything about football, they probably aren't in the least bit worried about that, if they were they wouldn't have employed Arteta that's for sure.
These are the same people who spend 72 million (deferred over many years) on a winger when we desperately needed a quality CB, bought a CB only to loan him back for a year (and again defer payment - so we should have very little to spend next summer) and then brought Luiz in to play CB. They're also the same people who gave Xhaka a new contract and allowed Ramsey to walk away for free, so don't be surprised by anything.
I wonder if Pepe is part of their transfer plans? Maybe his transfer was linked to us getting top 4? Maybe that's why he's not being played?
