Hopefully the eds can confirm but I read that fabregas clause for arsenal stands at £24mill

Would you take fab and vela for a total of 27.5m?

{Ed002's Note - No - ignore all talk of such "clauses". They will ask €50M.}

Hi ed, but didn't wenger and fabregas both confirm there is some sort of clause?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - The Unicorn clause.}

It's not that low I'm sure but they can't ignore the clause, which is there, no matter what Ed says.

Agree1 Disagree0

They can't ignore clauses? Well seemed to work fine for Liverpool in the summer with suarez

Agree1 Disagree0

You keep making remarks about this clause being made up ed02. However I have seen another ed say it was true before. Maybe In the summer. Are you 100% sure there is no such thing?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - It is simply that you have become obsessed with it and expect 50% on any fee Barcelona can get etc.. It is all nonsense.

The previous poster mentioned it working for Liverpool in the summer - would he like to explain how?

I refer to suarez apparently having a clause in his contract yet liverpool decided to ignore it and reject the bid arsenal made ed

Agree0 Disagree0

Ok ed I see now. To be fair perhaps a lot of fans including myself believe the papers too much. Although if there is such a clause including the Suarez one. What is the point negotiating these deals if they're worthless

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought the reason Suarez clause didn't apply was because clauses only apply when changing countries?
Have I misunderstood something yet again :-),
Oh If I only had a brain

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No that is pretty much the opposite of what happens. You need to get away from all of this "clause" based discussion. The situation with Suarez was that the club supposedly made a verbal agreement that he could decide if he wanted to leave if another side offered a certain amount. Move on.}

Yep, all this clause, Micah Richards, and Jackson Martinez is getting very boring. Some people need to start living in the real world.

Agree0 Disagree0

Benzema and Di Maria won't happen. Deal for Aurier looking more and more likely. Also expect deals for a new back up GK, a new DM and striker.

Eds any reason to believe the Vela/Milner rumours? And any info on Alexis Sanchez?

{Ed002's Note - There is nothing new - everything I have said on these players remains valid.}

According to reports in France, Bacary Sagna has put pen to paper on a three year £150,000 a week deal with Man City.

Gutted, I know it's been on the cards for a while but was really hoping we could sort something out with him to stay.

Wish him well, he gave his best right to the end

He is just looking for one final big pay day really, no way would Arsenal pay anywhere near 150k per week for a RB at 31. A good servant but this Augier sounds a decent replacement will be a lot cheaper in comparison.
