Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2021 rumours thread

Agree. You wouldnt buy a house for £200k, do it up add inflation then sell it for £100k.....

That really does depend on the housing market at the time of sale.

 

[sparky79]

For purposes of this analogy, let's presume that the transfer market is relatively similar to the current housing market in that enormous sales might be deflationary or stagnating but the mid market and areas where greater value can be had are seeing healthy yoy increases.
Smarty pants.

And the house has got a big cock

 

[fitz]

Are Chelsea still hoarding all the buy to let players?

And the house has got a big cock

A semi?

I mean, he's still saying Soumare is done too but has been for weeks, so who knows why it's not been announced if that's true.

But sounds like Daka is done.

The rumour merchants have finally realised that the annual Callum McGregor links were starting to get ridiculous I see

Also saw a (probably bollocks) rumour that Arsenal would offer Joe Willock plus cash to drive Maddison's price down. Would you take that?

 

[sparky79]

I like Joe Willock. Real energy up and down the pitch.

 

[sparky79]

£60m and Joe Willock would be good business. Certainly don't think we reward Maddison with a new contract until he smashes the first half of next season.

 

[M17TT C]

I'd take Willock but ideally not losing Maddison too.

Willock was great for the Toon at the end of last season.

 

[Miles Away]

Willock is excellent.

 

[Brown Nose]

Rule one when you sell a player is to never take a part exchange.

We invest enough in our scouting and analytical departments to ever want to do this.

 

[Matt_B]

Swap one of our most creative midfielders for one not good enough for Arsenal? Sure, makes sense.

So we are judging players on whether Arsenal's management staff think they are good enough?

I'm not saying it's a deal we should do, but Willock has some quality and would add to our squad. He scored in Newcastle's last 7 games, which is some feat considering how negative they are.

Sure he would add to our squad, but I've not seen anything to say he'd be better than Maddison. The fact that Arsenal are apparently to prepared to offer money as well as Willock suggests they agree.
