Arsenal rumours 3

Do we think tripper will come to arsenal of
We can get a deal done.

{Ed002's Note - Kieran Trippier (RB) May be interested in a return to a England but being cover may make him think twice. Asking price is very high at €40M but Manchester United and Arsenal are open to a move if the price can bbe reduced. Everton interest went with CA.}

Would love Trippier, i'm not sure the club is a big enough draw for him without Champions League mind. RB is a massive problem right now for me. Chambers is nowhere near good enough, so hopefully someone comes in. Aarons maybe?

26 Aug 2021 10:50:11
Surley he would be bought as our number 1 RB as opposed to cover?

26 Aug 2021 17:15:07
Question for you Ed regarding this, you may have no idea but what is the relationship like between arsenal and a. Madrid now. After the whole partey incident last summer I remember you said they wasn't too happy with how we acted.

{Ed002's Note - There won't be a good relationship right now.}

26 Aug 2021 18:42:49
Who would he be covering?

26 Aug 2021 20:22:10
Didn't think so. Appreciate the reply Ed.

26 Aug 2021 21:20:33
Thanks for ir the reply Ed.

Hi ed,

perhaps a big ask here and expecting you to say you may not know the answer to most of them, but do you reckon the following players will be sold by the end of the window:

Nketiah
AMN
Nelson
Bellerin
Willian
Elneny

thanks.

{Ed002's Note - I have given you a list of players the club are willing to sell. All of these players are on that list and there is interest in all of them.}

25 Aug 2021 02:14:47
Looks like Edu could be on his way out of the club and Overmaars could replace him at last.

25 Aug 2021 05:12:09
Completely fabricated story from the gutter press I reckon, but it wouldn't be terrible. Edu has done fairly well this window with building a young core but the Willian deal and our inability to sell players for a reasonable sum hangs over the place like a bad smell.

24 Aug 2021 21:40:46
Hello ed02. is Arsenal looking to add a right back this season? Any transfer updates?

{Ed002's Note - Yes, they remain keen on a RB.}

24 Aug 2021 01:23:31
Hi edd do you think we will sign any more players we need to because we look awful.

{Ed002's Note - It is possible but there is a huge effort being made to sell players right now.}

24 Aug 2021 18:02:55
We're struggling to even get loans with obligations by the looks of it. 10m offered for Nketiah as well is a joke. As much as we need to sell, clubs need to meet our valuations 👍🏻.

25 Aug 2021 15:45:04
In this climate, almost everyone's expectations need to adjust. Valuations of 12-18 months ago mean nothing now.

{Ed014's Note - are you trying to tell me the hideously over rated Grealish was worth more than £100 million 12 to 18 months ago?

25 Aug 2021 18:40:53
No, certainly not, Manchester City operates in a market unafflicted in the same way as everyone else. You might add Chelsea to that. When Barcelona and Real Madrid cannot buy at the prices asked and we cannot even get rid of Bellrin on loan something has most definitely changed.

22 Aug 2021 13:56:45
ED002,
Have we given up on Bissouma? He dominated the midfield yesterday .

{Ed002's Note - I would not expect a move to Arsenal for Bissouma.

22 Aug 2021 14:37:25
Any ideas why no one has gone in for him yet Ed. Thought he'd be snapped up early.

{Ed002's Note - He is not available and would be too expensive for most clubs if he were.}

22 Aug 2021 16:38:12
Thanks
A pity though.

22 Aug 2021 16:25:28
Thanks Ed. I'm guessing the medias quote of being available for 30m is way off.

{Ed002's Note - So it would seem.}

22 Aug 2021 10:23:53
Ed any truth in the Asensio rumours, is Arsenal interested?

{Ed002's Note - Marco Asensio (RW/LW) Goals have dried up and his representative is working with a third-party agent to find a club willing to pay something like €40M for the player. The third party has said that the player ideally wants a club in the Champions League but the discussions he has had have been with Leicester City and Leeds so far and admits knocking on the door of other PL clubs including Arsenal. Real Madrid may be open to using him in a part exchange deal of some type.}

👍🏾 Nice one.

20 Aug 2021 09:19:18
Hi Ed’s long time reader first time poster, now that we have signed MO does that mean Kia and edu will stop pushing for coutinho thanks for all your good work.

{Ed002's Note - Coutinho won't be happening.}

20 Aug 2021 09:27:39
Thank you Ed.

20 Aug 2021 14:52:04
Hi Ed002 with Odegaard and Ramsdale ( assuming he comes) do we need to sell to cover these transfers or if we manage to sell can we look to a RB or a real treat like Bissouma? Thanks for all your info by the way COYG.

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal need to sell players to get money coming in.}

20 Aug 2021 22:59:23
Hi edd will arsenal sign more players I hope so because if I’m honest 150m been wasted hopefully you can tell me good news do you think we sign anyone else before deadline.

{Ed002's Note - There remains a desire for at least a RB.}

21 Aug 2021 11:37:41
Are we only looking at a right back what if we lose one of our forwards either pea or lacca
Would things change?
Thanks for all the hard work and input ed.

{Ed002's Note - Much will depend on outgoings now.}
