Josh is a fantastic prospect and a quality young player who has come on in leaps and bounds in such a short time, he refused to resign for the Gunners as he wanted 1st team football that they could not guarantee, he signed for us knowing our track record of taking youngsters and developing them ready for our 1st team, and then not standing in their way when they want to move on, that's why we have great financial success working that way, it's a win, win situation all round, but hopefully we can keep our best players if we get promotion. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to you, an excellently run club. Many a year spent in Brentford (work) so have a soft spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casablancas Posted 9 July 2020 Share Posted 9 July 2020 Off to Chelsea apparently!!! Can’t see where he’d fit in there other than then bench. Hope it’s not true ... thinking on it I genuinely hope we are actually interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would definitely be on the bench if they played full strength, but would still get plenty of games with them being in Europe. I've just read Brentford want around 35 million though? Can't see anyone paying anymore than 20-25 or so for him. I'd imagine if he signs for them that means Willian and Pedro are both off at the end of the season.

Doubt he'd bide his time patiently at Brentford for so long only to bench himself at the first opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's talented but takes the chance of screwing up his career by skipping a step. Benrahma should come here where he stands a better chance of playing. Then he can go to Barca or PSG. Always a risk to go for the big contract to soon and risk getting stuck and put on the transfer wheel like so many have at Chelsea. He doesn't even know who the next manager will be. Lampard could be gone at the end of the season. Then you're just another number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a personal perspective he will earn a lot more than if he came to us and he also doesn’t need to change his lifestyle at all. players will generally take the money and worry about other stuff later ...... they could get an ACL at any time that removes a little bit of this or that which separates them from the rest.

les-tah Posted 9 July 2020 Share Posted 9 July 2020 If He goes Chelsea he has got a bigger chance of totally ruining his progression and career.. They have many many quality players and keep signing more so the chance of him playing week in week out are much much lower than here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 9 July 2020 Share Posted 9 July 2020 Don't understand why Chelsea would want him. He'd cost around 30m yet isn't going to play ahead of the likes of Werner, Pulisic, Ziyech or Hudson-Odoi. Seems daft to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Security is a double edged sword. If his agent has strong influence he'll go to Chelsea and take the money now. Cest le vie Benrahma. (apologies to any French speakers).

If it's different with Gray (and Benrahma) it doesn't take a genius to figure out why. are you alluding to the fact, its because there not white? cos that is Bollox, Gray has had his share of supporters its just he hasnt produced consistently and they have waned over time, Barnes has produced a lot more since he broke into the team. Yet if you read the match threads and player threads, still gets a lot of shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we get two or three years out of them before they move on for a profit than that works for me. It's a business and we have to profit from every transaction. The key is that you have to keep everything moving. Money/Labor = Energy. Stand still and we're dead. Just like the game.

Lambert09 Posted 9 July 2020 Share Posted 9 July 2020 he’s not off anywhere at this stage. Theyve been quite clear they are waiting to see what division they are in first. We we will have to wait for the season to end before we will know where he’s ending up. Chelsea really doesn’t make a lot of sense. It would be so disappointing for us to see Chelsea with 2 of our fans top targets next season. They are a scummy club aren’t they. I thought Lampard was all about developing the youth and it seems more like he’s playing footy manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an upside, some of their talented young players may become disillusioned and try to engineer moves away. Abraham, Loftus-Cheek and Hudson-Odoi spring to mind. They don't seem to be linked with many centre-backs at the moment but we could see Zouma and Tomori become available too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
