Let’s put it this way, if we really wanted someone and have to overpay to outbid other teams for him, that 20 million would be crucial.

That piece of shit Tom Cleverly who got found out went from Everton to Watford for £9m in 2017, no way you can tell me Guendouzi wasn't worth £25m at the minimum.

If he didn’t perform we might have got 5 million.m, not much different to what we’re getting now.

How do you know we needn't have to set a fee?
Were you involved in the negotiation?
We did a try before you buy deal - I rather suspect Marseille will have wanted to know how much the buy part of that was and had a price they were comfortable with.
That's the problem with your argument - you are assuming that Marseille would have signed a loan only and / or signed a try before you buy deal with no set price. Big assumptions.

Unlike when Wenger didn't want a player and they sat on big money for years giving half hearted performances and eventually leaving for free!Salibatelli wrote:jayramfootball wrote:Salibatelli wrote:Not true, we needn’t have set a fee, had we not we could have sold him for 30 million in the summer.

He’s our player, we decide not the club loaning him. Marseille have loaned Saliba and there’s no fee there, so it seems to me we wanted to sell him.
Arteta wanted to get rid and when that happens it seems common sense goes out the window, it’s just a case of getting the player out at any cost.

Or is it too far gone now?
