Having received the parachute payments and sizeable transfer
fees for players like Charlie Adam, replaced by cheaper alternatives, the Seasiders» slide since Ian Holloway's departure is a cautionary tale.
I just looked up Chelsea's transfer
fees for players like Willian, Oscar, Costa, Hazard, Cesc it was mind boggling.
Not exact matches
Nevertheless, a
player of his standing on and off the pitch would be a huge coup
for Chelsea if such a move were to materialise, although with no mention of a transfer
fee or whether or not his wage demands could be met by the Blues, it seems
like it's still a long way off from becoming a reality.
Look how we paid a record
fee for Ozil who... He wasn't RM star
player yet we had to pay
for him, that is what a big club acts
like!
And its not
like Wenger bought such poor
players by choice, thats what his money could afford him, think about it... not long ago, a mere 16 million euros that was used in the acquisition of carzola was our record transfer
fee when other teams bought
players for fees in excess of 30 mil every season!
who would of guest City would make an offer of 60 million in the summer
for Sanchez with only a year left on his contract, i'm guessing we could get an offer of around 30 million from City in January so he wont be persuaded by the
likes of PSG with a signing on
fee in the summer, but who knows what goes in the mind of Alexis or what kind of injuries some big clubs could have from now until January
for them to make ridiculous offers to a world class
player with no CL conflict of interest, lets say Real Madrid loses Ronaldo, Bale, Karim to long term injury you bet they will come ceiling with baring gifts
for Sanchez's services or even Barca with Messi or Suarez
Betis, hoping to become a La Liga giant
like Real Madrid or Barcelona, made 21 - year - old the world's most expensive
player of all time in 1998,
for an at the time monstrous
fee of # 21m.
@mohawk It's more
like the agents are playing on the gullibility of the social media sheep (media outlets included) by creating interest in their
players, who have all happened to land somewhere
for hefty enough price tags and
fees... AFC has been «agent bait»
for the longest.
Oh how I wish it, would work
like that.Didn't Souhampton sold their three star
players for a
fee more than 20 mil?
It is clear that this is forcing the
fees for players in England and abroad through the roof and we know all too well that Wenger
likes a bargain and hates to pay over the odds, but even the most stubborn person has to eventually accept what is going on and see that this is not just a passing phase.
Maybe you are right but of the rumoured 150M we still have payment commitments from previous transfers that have not been completed, then wages which will be a big issue since a 40 - 60M
player will probably be on 180 - 200k, also we will most likely be getting a reject
like James Rodriguez or Turan since we are out of the champions league and if they are on the same level as ozil then we might as well not bother with them, then add onto the fact it may not be easy to get rid of our unwanted
players like Walcott
for example who will pay his 140k ontop of a 20M transfer
fee?
Not getting a big
fee for Sanchez and possibly buying a 60mill marquee
player like Aubameyang means seriously cutting costs else where.
The point is that thanks to this we are now in a better position, instead of being left
for dead completely by Man City and Chelsea and their unlimited resources we will now be able to buy
players commanding transfer
fees like Sanchez or Ozil every season or two, we achieved this while staying in the Champions League year after year.
If Malcom is successfully acquired or falls in our lap
for a reasonable
fee fair enough, but the wide
player I would
like Arsenal to look hard at is Wilfred Saha from Crystal Palace.
# 15 million may seem
like a lot
for a
player of Szczesny's calibre and especially
for a goalkeeper, however let's not forget some of the crazy prices that are flying around the transfer market nowadays and so demanding such a
fee isn't entirely unrealistic from Arsenal.
From youngsters
like Neymar and Harry Kane to less expensive veterans
like Zlatan, Man United can land the high - quality
player they want while getting a lot more value
for their transfer
fee.
The club has debts running into the countless millions and the
likes of Tottenham and Watford still awaiting
fees for players purchased by the cash strapped club.
Real Madrid have won the champions league more times than we have even been in a final, Benzema will command a high
fee and wages when and if he goes, there is a scramble already to purchase this
player, I don't see anyone knocking on our door
for OG and that's because despite the fact that he has improved and I
like him as a
player he is NOT as good a CF as Benzema.
Arsene Wenger does
like a bargain, as every Arsenal fan knows all too well, and getting a quality
player without having to pay a single penny, or Eurp as the case may be, in transfer
fees is certainly a bargain, so I reckon that the Arsenal boss will be having a good long think about the news, reported by the Spanish Catalan sports paper Sport that FC Barcelona are willing to let their Turkish international Arda Turan go
for nothing.
Guerreiro is one left back that would meet the requirements but we would face stiff competition with Liverpool who may be looking to spend this summer
for Klopp, there is no doubt that he looks
like a
player for the future but
for the
fee that he could command with popular interest, it may force Wenger to look at other opportunities and one may have dropped in his lap.
Maybe so when you look at the transfer
fees paid by Man City
for players like De Bruyne, Sterling and Mangala and the silly money spent by Man United on the
likes of Angel Di Maria and Anthony Martial, but a report in the Daily Mail tells a different story.
To be fair to Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal board, a transfer
fee of # 10 million does not sound
like too much to ask
for a
player with the pace and technical ability that Kieran Gibbs has and the experience that being an England international with nearly 150 Premier League games and close to 50 in the Champions League brings with it.
However, the report in The Sun suggesting that it was the Lyon forward Alexandre Lacazette that Wenger and Gazidis were in France
for seems a lot more believable, with the transfer
fee for this
player said to be more
like # 50 million.
This is a decent article, yet the negatives from fans are still there, I would love to see arsenal
like I did at the end of the 90's and at the beggining of the 2nd millennium but it doesn't mean in order to do so I would buy all the best
players in world, I would get a rich owner to put his filthy money in, change the manager every 2 years to do so, there's so much wrong in football nowadays that yes it's still a sport but there's more focus on the filthy amounts of money being spent on clubs and
players that I think attracts more attention than the game itself, now that is wrong and it's very wrong, even our owner though not
like the arabs or Russians, yet the yank is clueless about the tradition of our game, it's just sad, so the fact that Wenger has remained
for this long through all these changes that have occurred whilst the money game has elvolved, it makes me happy that arsenal do not spend stupid amounts of money on
players, we don't try and buy the league, hell we even tight with wages and transfer
fees, I'm glad it's
like that, though our season ticket is a rip off I still don't mind it because at least we are not
like the other supreme teams, there's a bit of tradition left at our club, yet you go to man shitty or Chelski, there is no tradition, it's all about buying ur way all the way to the top, on the other hand spuds don't know what to make of them besides how the heck have they finished above us?
They have so much money to spend that it doesn't matter if a transfer
fee for a certain
player seems
like a massive overpay.
There will be the guy that hates the board and will repeatedly accuses them of penny - pinching / misleading / talking to media too much / not giving supporters enough information; another who is adamant that we are paying well over the odds
for every
player linked (as if the transfer
fee was coming out of his own pocket); and the bloke that doesn't
like or want us to do business with certain other clubs.
The 20 - year - old French attacker looks
like he will be leaving Marseille to join Arsenal
for a transfer
fee worth around # 13.5 m. I'm usually quite careful not to make unrealistic statements about
players joining or leaving the club -LSB-...]
Ronaldo's petulance when not being able to score has been well documented, while Gareth Bale looks
like a shadow of the
player who was signed
for a world record transfer
fee from Tottenham in 2013.
The Sun has reported that Sandro would most likely cost around # 70 million, which is a massive transfer
fee for a left - back — one which will see the media criticise the club
for spending another big chunk of cash with teams
like Manchester City having a ceiling price
for a
player and seemingly make these options work.
He joined the club
for a decent
fee and he seems
like a good
player from what you see / read online but he has missed all of pre-season so far.
Liverpool decided to bring in Virgil van Dijk
for a world record transfer
fee —

players like Daniel Agger.
Before even diving into the
player's salary, the group is asking
for a $ 5.8 million commission
fee, which
for De Vrij still doesn't seem
like a lot of money.
Reports suggest Everton have agreed a # 25m
fee with Swansea
for Sigurdsson but he want # 120k a week in wages, listening to reports in the press is of course akin to listening to politicians making promises so who knows I would
like to see Sigurdsson though if he is available and we can do a deal, he is one of the best
players in the league, very consistent and guarantees goals.
