Popular Post Muzzy_Izzn’t Posted 17 July 2022 Popular Post Posted 17 July 2022 ‘It is very unlikely that City would make a move to sign Pepe, not least because of the fee Arsenal would command and also the wages the 34-cap Ivory Coast star is likely to be on.’ Basically an article about how we aren’t in for this guy…. Maybe I should write an article about how we also aren’t in for Messi and Mbappe, see if Leicester Mercury will give me a reporting job 5 10
Jobyfox Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Ah.... another name ...... another player we'll never sign. Alas .... cruel world ....

I have total confidence that it would be at least as good as the sh1t that's on there 1
Collymore Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Rodgers has said we're not going to buy anyone so this is now just all pointless. 1

Jock's Hill Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Do Arsenal have anyone who might realistically be available and worth a punt in part of an exchange deal for Tielemans? I feel that it will not be a healthy situation for the club if he stays around for another season without signing a new contract. 1

FoxesWalk Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Only works if they divide his previous fee by 4, and he is willing to divide his wages at least in half. He was 75m ish and on probably 150k.

A good player though not worth more than £35 million , however there is absolutely no chance whatsoever he would take less than £8 m a year and that would mean getting both Tielemans and Soyuncu off the books.
CrispinLA in Texas Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 (edited) Arsenal probably want a straight swap with Tielemans.... without paying us any cash. Reading Arsenal Mania they kind of say he struggles in the EPL but flourishes in Europe.....think he may be like where experiencing with Soumare. But Pepe's stats aren't that bad.....maybe he needs a manager who plays the game around him? I'd rather we do a deal with Saliba Edited 17 July 2022 by CrispinLA in Texas 2
FosseSpark Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Not a good player. Better than Perez arguably and an actual right winger. But certainly not the answer to our prayers. Would rather see Alves thrown in to see if he can be our own Rooney or Owen.
orangecity23 Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 Give them a Turkish or Italian offer: we'll loan him for no fee, cover 20% of his wages and have a non compulsory option to buy for 20 quid which we will try to negotiate down to a tenner plus an empty bag of crisps next summer. Is good deal, you accept yes. Si si. Tielemans? For you, 100 million euro, cash up front. Si

Soumare does find it hard in EPL games, can't say I saw him play in Europe to be honest, while Pepe doesn't quite fit in the EPL but was good in Europe

desertfox2 Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 It's a shame that there seems to be no substance whatsoever to this. He could really be just what we need. The only reason he doesn't play at Arsenal is Saka and they think of him as a flop because he cost them 72m. The season they signed him he was 2nd only to Mbappe for goals in France and his actual goal to game ratio isn't terrible at Arsenal. He should be hitting his peak age wise now and knows the league. The wages would be the kicker as well as the fee as he must be on huge money. 2
FoxinNotts Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 (edited) Right, I don’t for one minute think we’ll get him, or that we’re even in for him. But…. If we off loaded, Choudhury, Soumare and Perez, and only bought in Pepe and kept everyone else, we would have a top seven competitive squad. Just goes to show, despite all the drama and negativity around us at the moment, we are actually only a decent right winger away from a superb squad, imo Edited 17 July 2022 by FoxinNotts
LFox99 Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 This guy was brought to Arsenal as a money washing tool He's on more than our highest earner and is exceptionally average, stay clear
lcfc_forever Posted 17 July 2022 Posted 17 July 2022 (edited) How is this a thread? There is no decent link, and Brendan confirmed we’re not signing anyone in the current situation. With this and the numerous transfer budget threads, it’s more like Reddit here. Edited 17 July 2022 by lcfc_forever
