What a joke!!
Crystal palace were serious but they chose to go for Edouard than Eddie for 15m.Why didn't we just take the £10-15M for him in the summer. Did they expect him to extend his contract and sell for alot more?
If he goes to a pl club we will get some compensation..
My understanding was that he could not come to an agreement with Palace. The fee was settled, I believe.Why didn't we just take the £10-15M for him in the summer. Did they expect him to extend his contract and sell for alot more?
Last ditch attempt to sell this January hopefully - want to see how he does away from us. Prepared for a breakout season once he leaves.
Exactly this. They are always protecting the value of depreciating assets.Why didn't we just take the £10-15M for him in the summer. Did they expect him to extend his contract and sell for alot more?

The Athletic understands Palace have been unable to reach an agreement for Nketiah. As reported last week, the south London club were eyeing up a deal worth £10 million for the striker. But Arsenal wanted to achieve a price of around £20 million.
Arsenal were willing to reduce their asking price to around £15 million but Palace were reluctant to meet that.
As a result, Palace have now switched their focus to Celtic striker Edouard. Barring a late twist, Nketiah is expected to remain at Arsenal.
We are truly the dumbest team. 20 million of nketiah or we gonna keep him. Palace must have been really confused. But you don’t play him and he will leave free in 12 months. Edu must have thought I have them where I want them. 20 million as he is vital player and they walked out. Arsenal have got it really wrong. They want to show they are not a soft touch and would rather keep players that failed to prove a point. I can see them refusing to sell Pepe as wellReport: Eddie Nketiah to stay at Arsenal as Crystal Palace move collapses
Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah is now expected to stay with the club beyond the transfer deadline after a move to Crystal Palace broke down.www.hitc.com
Was how it was presented by some, but the Athletic (Orny) says that was not the case and he was priced out.
20m Nketiah?
Or 15m gamble on Edouard?

This sounds more in line with our Xhaka negotiations and contract U turn.
We should try and swap for either Bowen, Bissouma or Zaha.
Bowen is from a farm near me.
You still want Bissouma with that sexual assault charge pending?
