Dr Venkman Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Can't help but feel he hasn't got the close control Arsenal always look for in a midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 After the Cabaye fuck-up (only £19m) I can see them being slightly more cautious this time. He'll obviously go, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leazes1986 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 He only cost £1.8m didn't he? If we got £20m for him only 2 years later then that is a massive profit. What do people think he is worth? He's playing brilliant this season like. Priceless to us because we won't be able to replace him any time soon but that's not the way fat Mike works.

bowlingcrofty Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 As per last year I expect us to sell him in January and use the money in the summer to fund a handful of "development" players in the hope that one becomes a Perez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The money won't be reinvested promptly as history has shown and we will be left with the dross which currently plays in Central midfield for us.

His control is quite often very poor so if he was playing for someone else he probably wouldn't be worth as much whereas to us he is absolutely priceless as only him and Ayoze seem capable of driving us forward.

Ste Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Would be a huge loss but along with Perez, he's our stand out star and we can't have one of them for too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 ’equipe are apparently saying that we have opened talks to sell Sissoko to Arsenal. I hope it's untrue, but knowing Ashley....... might be the only way we get some investment in the team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawK Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Can't stop players wanting to further their careers, unless you're literally in the top 3 or 4 teams in the league, you're not going to keep your best players if one of those wants them and is willing to pay the going rate. Even then, if Barcelona or Real Madrid want a player, even Chelsea or Manchester City won't be able to keep them. The trick is to re-invest* the money on further talents that will also grow, until you get to the point where you have so much quality through the team that it can break into the top 3 or 4 in its own right. * Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I've never really considered anyone coming in for Sissoko, just thought it was pessimism. Don't Arsenal have about 20 midfielders? They'd have to get rid of Arteta, Rosicky, Diaby etc first. We'd be screwed without him, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always makes me laugh when our fans gripe about his first touch when I know that he'll leave for a CL club. That Colback though, he's got a great first touch, surprised Arsenal and PSG aren't fighting it out for his signature instead. Mugs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
