Madueke didn’t move to Arsenal as a regular in a top 4 team to earn 50% less than Reiss Nelson.

RT @SamJDean: Noni Madueke is now set to become the seventh player to move from Chelsea to Arsenal in the past six years. Luiz, Willian, Jo….

Noni Madueke is a good signing. Fee drama shouldn’t distract from him adding proper cover to Saka, and flex on the left. He’ll offer excitement in one vs one’s, he has explosive pace, and he’s really experienced for a 23 year old. Also knows the league. Great move for a player

I stand by this. There was no strategic imperative for Arsenal to make the signing now.Chelsea had no leverage.The only party that benefits from a headline fee of £52m is Chelsea if they can book that with UEFA. No way final payment is anywhere near £52m. If it is… woooah boy,.

They didn’t. Andrea Berta is too shrewd. Tim Lewis is very sharp. Runs counter to the way the rest or our deals are being negotiated.

The price of a player doesn’t change dependent on where you play them. This deal only exists if it’s incredible for Arsenal.

£52m for a backup. This number absolutely cannot be cash or straightforward installments. No way this isn’t massively loaded up with crazy add-ons (win UCL / Ballon d’Or win). Remember, Chelsea ownership are extremely creative with financials. This deal is happening too quickly.

Left or right doesn’t change the favorable fundamentals here. We had all the leverage and Chelsea’s lack of it has been in the news. The Romano number vs what Arsenal pay will be cavernous in difference… or we have been had over. I refuse to believe current Arsenal leadership.

Trossard was a very underrated player. If he's leaving to Fenerbache, I hope he gets the fat payday he deserves. Always remember, he helped us dodge a bullet, saved us £65m, and delivered great output. Top talent.

6 goals and 6 assists across 33 appearances in La Liga. €100m. 👍.

Unpopular opinion here, a genuine one. spending €100m on a player who just had a bad season is a worry. Even more worrying, Carlo complained about his lack of motivation—so much so, he dropped him for Brazil. €100m deals sit easier with me when the player is arriving on a.

HOT TAKE🌶️Arsenal won’t spend more than £25m on Madueke. Chelsea needs to raise £60 million before they can register their new players for the UCL. They don’t have many assets to sell right now. Arsenal know they’re in a bind. Berta has agreed terms with the player, put it into

There is a game that is played with player price news, ego can impact, as well as dark arts. Bid news can put urgency on other clubs to enter the auction, it can be used to save face on a money losing deals, it can faked to create a market that wasn’t there, it can be used to.

I don’t understand why ‘these people’ fret about player price when they don’t know the club budget or full plans. Especially when the upset comes from a speculated £10m difference. Andrea Berta is very experienced. Let him work and judge at the end.

RT @YouAreMyArsenal: @Duzie_ @LeGrove Except when you look at similar players he's compared to his output isn't abysmal .

🧒 Very young.🚫 Cole Palmer wasn't firing in open play.❌ Chelsea strikers non-existent.🔄 Rotation option with Saka. If he had 40 G&As to his name in the Premier League, he'd not be coming to Arsenal to pick up Sterling (🕒 1100) / Reiss (⏱️ 574) minutes.
