Maybe we are turning down bids for Dougie while Tielemens is getting out of the shower after his game?

Gregg evans tweeted earlier that Dendoncker was 1 of 3 bits of business . After Bednarek I wonder if there will be a late announcement of Dougie signing a new contract ?
On this part.  Let's say he signs,  and says it was never in doubt.  Would that be "unsporting" for the clubs bidding?

I'm fairly sure it's all just theatre.  They probably haven't bid at all.  Shame that the lovely Jim White isn't there to oversee it all.  NOT!!

The cancel culture on heros and villains means I can not comment further.
I see you are on the same wavelength as that ****** Piers Morgan.

Hold on a minute… you **** out the c word, but still inflict P**** *****n on us? I know which I find less offensive.
Sorry about that mate. A school boy error and I do apologise.

Good I'm glad we told them to fuck off. In a weeks time our con man of a manager will be gone and hopefull the new bloke sees the light so that Luiz get starts vs McGinn.

Fuck off Arsenal and Sky and Talk Sport.

Luiz we love you and soon we will have a manager in charge who knows how to coach and  won't be tactically clueless  and you will make the Brazil squad later in the year.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if a new contract was signed with a release clause.

John Percy saying that barring any major u-turn, Luiz is staying with us.


I can't work this out. Why not just take the money? If keeping him saves us £25 million that ti me is an admission we're I'm a relegation battle. If we were that confident the squad we'd be selling

I’m not sure I follow you?



He is going to leave for free so we're saying that keeping him essential. If we were confident in what we would have after he's gone, we would selling surely? I'm not on a wind up or "trolling" I'm being serious that are we thr type of club to turn down £25 million. Put it another way, how would we feel if we brought him for £25 Mill on a 1 year deal

So just so we're clear, you're simultaneously complaining that the owners aren't investing enough and that they're also mad for not selling a fringe player when they could get £25m for him?


The cancel culture on heros and villains means I can not comment further.
So, are we shit for keeping him,  or, was it shit for not selling him? 🤔

Knowing how Arsenal have done their transfer deadline day business in the past, we’ll probably wake up tomorrow to find the deal was done in the early hours due to an issue with a faulty fax machine that didn’t deliver the required paperwork that was sent at 10:59pm.
That's true KRS. I was thinking the same earlier that they usually have an extra day.

So if it’s true he wanted to go, do we now have an unhappy player. 
He didn’t look very happy when he scored the other night either.
I don’t know what to make of it all.

He will want to make Brazil’s World Cup squad, and will probably get more minutes here.. but obviously the football is more flattering at ahhsnul.

I can’t imagine he’ll be scoring any more of those corners now, though. The jig is up!
