“City have also been left surprised by how much the 21-year-old wants to make the switch, having only moved to the Etihad in July last year.”

Dean has been first on a couple Tottenham related things this summer. So I trust him here. A young potentially elite player is dying to leave City to join Spurs…and we won’t just cough up the money. It’s always 5-10m short in every deal. Just pay it for once.

 

well, at least Oasis is tonight

 

Pay up Levy

 

That assist is ridiculous

 

his name ain’t paz for nothin’

 

I just saw that the four Saudi public investment fund teams might be up for sale. So, that Saudi bubble could be bursting like that Chinese league bubble did after those weird three years.

 

7 straight wins for Charlotte :)

We had a real dogshit month earlier this season that kinda wrecked our spot in the standings but back on track. Would’ve been 8 in a row but we blew a 2-0 lead to start this run lol

 

Apparently all of Spurs, Chelsea, and Arsenal are after him

 

Can’t see us spending that. We’ll be working on sales now.

 

Onions. Cut.

 

Fab says Spurs are the ones. Ornstein says Arsenal. Then Gold comes in and says Spurs aren’t going for him.

 

Christ, we need to sell players. Our spending has been nuts. If we're signing him, then Kiwior must be almost gone then.

 

I enjoyed the comment on r/gunners that said that since Arteta has bought Eze, "he deserves to treat himself to a new defender."

 

Crazy to me this is the type of player clubs are spending that much on and making backups. Hoarding all the players.

 

@Swoos TIL a penalty has an xG of between 0.76 and 0.79.

I saw your comment to @bigmike about Welbeck's miss.

 

Do you think this level of spending actually puts more pressure on Arteta? Like, if they finish second again without winning a trophy, I wouldn’t say he should be on the hot seat. But that noise will be there for sure in that scenario.

 

Who do Arsenal ostensibly have up for sale?

 

I guess losing Zinchenko and Kiwior will be enough.

 

You’d never guess that Spurs have started the season so well by reading the mood online haha

 

Looks like Nelson is going to Fulham, Viera to Stuttgart, and Kiwior to Porto. Plus we’re hoping to sell Zinchenko. I could see Martinelli going too if an offer comes in at above 50m
