Arsenal have clearly been to the Mike Ashley school of player purchasing. Find out what the price is, offer way below that and then when that player signs for someone else, turn around and say ‘We did try, just couldn’t get it over the line’ and then introduce some pudding who couldn’t kick shit who suddenly became available from Real Dicksplash for a half empty bag of Tudor crisps and a part chewed walnut whip.
If Ward Prowse looks to Southampton like he is going to leave them Flynn Downes would be a very good bit of business for them and we might live to regret the deal. Ward Prowse is amazing at free kicks but for me does not shine in other respects.
I dunno how else to send u a message mate, so I apologise, digress, whatever – but could u ever see a successful team coming out for us with a forward triumvir of VLASIC, PAQUETA & SCAMACCA – Held by the anchor Downes, with Bowen flitting side to side and maybe Barnes coming in too..? What would you actually like to see happen yourself..? Me, personally, whatever it is I see, regardless of Moyes' this or that I think Scamacca would be a BIG loss for us as works be Paqueta but I don't believe we will let him go even if the rumours are true… Ings, ye let him go, keep Downes 💯 he's the future with Mubama , Barnes on the wing Paqueta they the centre(ish), Bowen on fire 🔥 down the wing, Johnson (I'm sorry but I love Ben) coming off age late, Areola proving he is a French #1 – Aguerdb continuing to be a beast, Kehrer – my new fav player – I love him and I promise you he will be the never long term Captain, if I'm right make me a part of your set up, bcos I promise he is CLASS and he loves the club, gets the fans and wants to lead, not many other clubs he could be captain at, realistically trying for trophies etc so why not a German Defender becoming a West Ham legend and a legendary captain at that..! Hope that reaches you Kehrer bcos hope you know u are appreciated for EVERYTHING u do – some of us see the love u gave for this club inside u – a Noble or a Terry (hurts to say) but a people's captain..! I guarantee, Kehrer will be WHU legend even more then he already is as a member of the 2022/23 Europa conference squad – love to every one of u ⚒️ blooded in battle – and maybe even more so to those whose sacrifice goes unseen and maybe it seems unappreciated but I promise, I SWEAR – it is not, everything done to move is forward on in and regard is a good step so let's keep walking 🙏
I wouldn't want to see Downes go without being given a proper try out… but if the club do let him go, couldn't they insert a buy back/first option clause on him if they do and he really came on at Southampton.
I’ve only see Amrabat play a few times but from what I’ve read would be a good signing.
If Rice goes to City, then money and Kyle Walker would be good.
It would mean a season then of not worrying about inconsistency with RB.
Amrabat and Downes, with Gallagher and Paqueta – should be decent enough choices for middle of the park, probably a loan player as well for cover – show Soucek the door.
Barnes and Johnson, would then round out the signings and give us some pace going forward.
Simples
Would be awful business to let Downes go
JWP is not the answer. Keep Downes, with Scott Mc and Maguire + £50-60m would be excellent. 🙏🙏
Can't say I would be particularly keen about getting JWP . If he'd really been any good, he would not have been at saints all his career
Dienes keep him people
Zakaria hasnt played for Chelsea or Juve so why would he be good?
Keep downs
Please get shot of Soucek. – keep Downes and get Zakaria. Please – a couple of strikers !!
While negotiations should happen. I can’t help but feel the Arsenal board are gaining a Sully reputation. “You want at least 100mill? Here’s 60mill, a few unrealistic add-ons and a dildo”
JWP for Flynn Downs sounds like a good deal.
I would like a curly wurly please
Hi Gonzo, everyone….. Hopefully we can get all this sorted before pre season, we need everyone up and running for the start of the season….. COYI !!! ⚒️
It's critical that the sale.of Declan Rice is of benefit to the club and damage minimisation takes place.
Keep Flynn build for the future
If Rice is after a Premier League and/or a Champions League winners medal then Man. City is a no brainer, otherwise he might as well stay put.
I think we should keep Flynn Downes, he hasn't been given a chance at all since he's been at the club
West Ham better get their finger out and sign some players before they all go to Saudi.
