He was waving goodbye after the last home game of last season. The club may have just kept it quiet since then.

The club may have just kept it quiet since then.There was massive talk about the move to Manure in June and July. Manure then didn't sell Onana because he got injured and all went quiet. So yes he has wanted a move and it looked like it would happen, then it didn't, and no Manure have decided to screw us over right on the window closure.
Well I know you are out dancing in the streets with joy as you get what you have wanted for at least the last 6 months, but all the news about the late transfer happening on the day of a match which means said player is then dropped does screw us over. If we had played Friday, then this news broke on Sunday, it wouldn't.Yes we could have played him, but then just had the fans on his back anyway.
Conspiracy theory...If Martinez was being tapped up by ManYoo earlier this year, did he throw the game at the end of last season? Twat.
I wasn't bothered when it looked like he was off at the end of the season, but I'm bothered that it's happening now and if we haven't lined up a replacement we should have told him to fuck off in May.

Paqueta and Guehi weren’t dropped and had good games this weekend.

But still he might be gone so get your jolly on.
It sounds like he's asked to leave at the death and we can do little to stop him which is why Emery is so frustrated. What I am heartened by is the Manager wishing to draw a line after 7pm tomorrow and put a shit summer behind us. It's the only way to go after tonight.
