This article suggests we could see Bellerin back at Arsenal next season. As I said before, if we’re legally obliged to pay him £110k a week (his Arsenal salary), that could make it difficult to sell him if the only reason for him accepting £58k at Betis was being a lifelong fan.

The other issue is, were we picking up the balance of his wages. I would not be surprised if we were as that is normal practice.

Everything I’ve read says it was with Özil. He was on £350k a week at Arsenal. Up to the point his contact expired, we allegedly paid 90% of that whereas Fenerbahce paid him the other 10%.

So his move apparently saved Arsenal £35k a week for six months. Big deal. The saving was peanuts.

New kits out. Don’t really like it

Martinelli wears 11 next year.

Great gesture of the club to give 5 pounds to charity for every shirt sold.

However The cost of the shirt is 100 quid. Just the shirt. 100 quid.

Quite a lot of money to save if the player isn’t involved at all. Better off keeping 35k than nothing

£100 is a disgrace TG.

Football was once as a working class game, a game for the people. Now imagine a one parent family or a family close to the breadline (as many are now) and how are they supposed to buy their kid(s) an Arsenal shirt.

2022-2023 Arsenal kit.

Honestly for 42 million we should tell them to do one but this one doesn’t seem to be going away.

Also being offered a couple of less than impressive players in return doesn’t appeal at all.

Super. We’ve started a build process so let’s remove one of the key components.

I can’t believe the club would want to sell. He’s a major component of our side looking more compact.

I could understand why he might want to play there but a fee of 42 million would be ridiculous. He’s only 24 so he’s not even in his prime yet and has 3 years on his contract to run. We would be *%^@*** stupid to sell for such a small fee. No offer less than the Pépé fee should be even considered

The only way we sell Gabriel is if Arteta and the club have identified someone they feel is significantly better and more to the point can get him.

How can it cost that much? What’s it made out of princess Dianas minge or something ?

Perhaps the signing of Jesus is going to be more complicated than some people may have thought? The Metro says Arsenal may consider alternatives in light of City’s £55m asking price.

Looks like the Melo deal could be back on......

Like I said it’s done. Enjoy Sundays game. Have an extensive pre match lunch and drinks, don’t focus on the game. Pre match beers on me in block 133 (if I’m there in time) for those in Ireland and Australia please imagine it virtually.

I sit in 133. Wonder if we’ve seen each other without knowing?

Must admit I really like the home shirt. But why would it be £100? That can’t be right.

It’s probably made in some Far East sweatshop for a pittance.

Long sleeves. For me that's proper Arsenal. Also what happened to the good old blue and gold as a 2nd away kit?

What about us in Liverpool? (There's more than me - I think!! :) )

Wow never knew you were there bro

Btw great city for a night out…. Not sure about living just joking

Scousers get tons of respect from me btw. I know you aren’t one but I do enjoy their disdain for establishment

Also I’m ashamed to say scouse the food is *%^@*** delicious. Come at me freaks, try it and tell me I’m wrong

Looking more and more likely that Evertons fate may be in our hands.
