@donhutch4 Why do you think joining Arsenal is not a possibility? This is my opinion. Vini wants attention. The Premier League will provide him with that star player status. Arsenal is the most attractive project in the EPL now. If they can afford his wages, never doubt it.
@ChicagoGoo49083@TheImmortalKop Before you doubt any possibility, go through the interviews Josh granted in May. There were hints there. All the reports have given an indication of a marquee signing this season. Vini always wants to be the main man. Where can he get it better than the EPL champions?
@FergieStandards “Approved at all levels” does not include Arteta, right? Say it this way: “As a Man U fan, you don't wish it would happen”. We can understand that. All other opinions, please shelve them.
@AdamJoseph Do you think that the Arsenal board has not considered all these scenarios before they agreed to pursue him? They may not have done it before, but it shouldn't stop them from trying now. They want to do something big, I think.
@Arsenalcore2 If I were City, I'd do that every season to unsettle my competitors. It's a good strategy that businesses use all the time to control the market. If the other clubs are unable to buy their targets, they eventually become weaker and can't compete on the field.
@ARazak_1@ALUBAY2@afcfranchise Exactly. He will give you a performance you can depend on. He will also save Rice from a complete breakdown. I just don't get it.
@SamiMokbel_BBC What is the essence of making the amount public? Arsenal doesn't want to pay, but it's trying to pretend that Newcastle is being difficult. That's preposterous. Nobody will sell his captain for cheap. If you don't want to pay, get off. It's getting annoying as an Arsenal fan.
@HarveyDiamonds We are being complacent in thinking that we are good enough without reinforcement. I'll wait until the season gets underway, then we can appreciate our senselessness.
@now_arsenaI@fichajesnet “Arsenal would be willing to sell, but only if their asking price is met”. “Arsenal will buy if their valuation is accepted”. Who do we think we are? One Championship in 22 years. Funny!
@LeGrove This is my point. Valuation to cost or performance? If we want it in relation to performance, we've wasted too much time already. But it's more about cost. He will be able to help us defend our title with or without Rice.
