    I'd be over the moon with this as rated him for quite a while and mentioned him here a few times. He's also versatile and could help fans get over not getting Eze.

    I'd suggest if Villa are willing, we offer a swap for Martinelli (lets not forget Emery bought him and probably still rates him) and pay whatever on top is needed to complete this deal.
    Emery didn’t buy anyone. He had no say over Transfers. It was either Sanhelhi or Mislintat who bought in Martinelli

    Havertz has NOT suffered ACL injury apparently, so that’s one thing ruled out that could land him out for the rest of the season

    Could be a Meniscus tear, If Chat GPT is correct i am carrying that on my right knee which means were I a footballer any knee slide celebrations would be out.

    Martinelli has doubtlessly underperformed last couple of seasons my point is given the issues on the left hand side I wonder if there is this player who is definitely going to be miles better when we have a system that isolates the left


    21 _Gooner stated that we’d been linked with Rodgers and mooted a swap deal with Martinelli. Now would I be happy to see that kind of deal? Yeah of course but it’s never happening. Martinelli isn’t going to agree to go to Villa and I doubt highly they could come to an accommodation over his wage demands even if he was prepared to consider it.

    While you've got a point about his wages, let's not forget that he also represents great resell on value for them if they are able to get anything out of him.

    Also this is a World cup year, if Martinelli is seriously dreaming about representing Brazil in a WC (like most young Brazilians usually do) he really needs a drastic change in his fortune and form.

    If I was advising him, I'd say he should take a risk while he's still young (Villa isn't that much of a risk BTW) and look for a manager who allows him to express himself properly.

    Wasn’t meant to be an argument. Just slight cold water on your Emery would want to be reunited with Martinelli idea

    All academic anyway

    Ornstein has tweeted that our interest in Eze was when we were hoping to get him for £40m
    Spurs are wiling to pay £60m so we have ruled him out.

    Two things:

    1. On what planet did we ever think we could get him for £40m??
    2. Why is it that we are happy with spunking large sums on players like Madueke with no haggling of any kind but when there is an actual decent player that would improve our attack it’s too much money??

    I stand corrected, that tweet was earlier and as MO said, he’s now reporting we’ve made a move for Eze!

    Yup just seen it on BBC, seems we've made up our mind to hug all the limelight today.

    Great news again, if true.
