Summer Transfer Window 23/24

He enough of an upgrade and half of the price. Who cares if he's mouthy, he kept Everton up twice with his shot stopping and if the outfield cack could score from 12 yards 1v1 he would have won England the European Championship too. People are too hung up on the personality rather than his ability and nit pick the small stuff and ignore others doing worse.

He wouldn't be half the price because we would have to buy him (£40m or so probably vs DDG who we wouldn't have to pay for)

He would want similar wages to what we have offered DDG I imagine

He isn't any better than DDG at shot stopping and is marginally better at the rest of goalkeeping.

All in all it would be a 2% upgrade for a lot of money.

To put that in perspective, over 5 years we could probably pay DDG his current wage and the two would be roughly equivalent from a cost perspective.
 
Oh Ffs, Vardy :(

Shock as Leicester star ‘offered’ to club – ‘No transfer fee’, wants to continue career ‘outside of England’


Leicester City icon Jamie Vardy has been offered to Turkish side Trabzonspor by his agents as he looks to continue his career outside of England.
That’s according to Karadeniz Gazete, who say the 36-year-old can move from Leicester on a free transfer this summer should he so wish.
 
So Arsenal, with no Champions League success or title in years can offer £100m as well as the players they signed last season, Jesus and Zinchenko, but Liverpool, with 2 CL final appearances in a row, one PL title and One CL win in the past 4 years, an FA Cup and League Cup win also, can't afford to even sign any player even close to £100m? Don't get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for FSG after they literally stopped the club going bankrupt, but it feels their time is up if they won't invest. We're something like 17th for owner investment over the past few years and while it's great they loaned us the money, interest free, for the new Training ground and Anfield expansion, it was a loan and needs paying back. Most other owners have paid for Upgrades and infrastructure so the club isn't materially affected. Not so for FSG. I'm not #FSGOut right now, but another poor window while Newcastle and City are being run as government departments of Middle East countries makes investment key.

Christ, I never expected that. Arteta must have threatened to walk or something.

2 things, City could still match or beat it, and it also depends on the structure of the deal

Yep, but then Arsenal are best looking elsewhere as 100m is already stupid money and if WH reject this offer, providing it’s mostly upfront and not structured then screw them. Go for someone else, clearly got the money to.
 
West Ham have not immediately accepted Arsenal's £105m bid for Declan Rice, according to the Daily Mail.

Sky Sports News understands the deal breaks down as a £100m initial fee, plus £5m in performance-related add-ons.

But the Daily Mail claim the Hammers want the guaranteed portion of the fee paid by the start of 2025, preferably in two instalments, with Arsenal wanting to pay the fee over a five-year period.

It is understood Arsenal will continue negotiations with the Irons today over the structure of the deal for Rice.

United spending the next month trying to get Mount and/or Pickford.

Then they’ll either pay way over the odds and original asking price or go mad and sign some randoms on loan again.

Didn’t Gary Neville say they’re just as bad as the Glazers but just got lucky with Klopp being an absolute beast?
