Oh boy. Terrible idea from Arsenal. Not that Arteta was a great option either. 6th spot is up for grabs.

Joselu isn't the worst but that is by no means a compliment

Coleman would get them promoted, mind. Hope Ipswich come in for him and the mackems have to scrape around.

Can see him being an expensive flop.

That is SOOOO West Ham.

Rivaldo Vieira was who we wanted.

Oh aye

He was good before and after Leicester. Wasn't even too bad at Leicester. Would be honoured to watch another club sign him

After a bad start to next season, I'm expecting Titz Out

Not a confirmed deal like that Chilean source said, but BBC are a bit more trustworthy.

Sales should take it to £80-90m though

£50m plus sales is fine tbh, we should get around £30m from Mitrovic, Mbemba & Saivet. Maybe sell Gayle/Joselu too. But my worry is that Rafa is pushing Ashley too far and that he'll choose saving face over protecting club value. "Fuck off and go, Rafa"

aaaaaaaand relax

Laporte isn't even on France's reserves list.

In terms of who else Sullivan could be talking about - nothing's really opening up for Ancelotti, is it? He can't stay unemployed forever and it'd explain why Sullivan was so excited and happy.... This stage is called denial

Cheers So they're not actually confident, they're just using this to promote his release clause. Marvellous.

France squad has no Lacazette, Coman or Martial: Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris, Steve Mandanda, Alphonse Areola Defenders: Djibril Sidibé, Benjamin Pavard, Raphaël Varane, Presnel Kimpembe, Adil Rami, Samuel Umtiti, Lucas Hernandez, Benjamin Mendy Midfielders: Paul Pogba, N’Golo Kanté, Corentin Tolisso, Blaise Matuidi, Steven N’Zonzi, Thomas Lemar Attackers: Kylian Mbappé, Olivier Giroud, Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembélé, Nabil Fékir, Florian Thauvin

How did they say it?

Yeah I'd be done too. It's just not worth the pain and heartbreak anymore, it'll never end.

George Caulkin Replying to @ToonBliss I don’t think there’s been any contact as of yet, so make of that what you will, but other clubs are sniffing around too. The point is Nufc need to get their act tougher.

Tweet has already been deleted

That's the hope. But Sullivan must be aware of all the stories today, not sure why he'd release such a happy statement today if it wasn't Rafa.

This is getting silly now. Actually starting to fear the worst - as mad as it sounds.

He's a good player, mind. We have no chance.

Our players adore him, our fans adore him and the feeling is mutual. He sees all the potential in this club, he sees what we can be and we're on the way to achieving it. He's a smart guy too, he knows all this. Not going to chuck it away for West fucking Ham and the Dildo Brothers :lol:
