Please let this happen and we can finally put the memory of this guy behind us, pound for pound one of the worst signings ever!

ESPN reported that Arsenal turned down Roma’s offer of 15 mil.

WTF!!???

That's like turning down someone offering to pay 50k to take your old ripped sofa away for you - and turning them down.

What is wrong with this club, I’m amazed we got someone to pay for him!

No doubt Arteta probably doesn’t want to sell him as he’s the 1st player on the team sheet.

He's shite but Roma are takin the piss. At least 25m the guy is worth considering the trash that move for high fees.
If we asked for any of Roma's shite players, they'd ask at least 50m minimum. I'm just surprised they are not doing the Italian special of loan with option to buy.

We have zero stature in any window, basically we are just clubs whipping boys, either pay way over the odds or under sell every f***ing thing, every club world wide know we have not got a clue.

Mhikytaryan is killing it there, Xhaka will do very well, particularly under a manager like Mourinho.

He's used a similar type of holding midfielder at every club he's been at. It was Matic at Chelsea and Utd, then Hojberg at Tottenham. Not world class players but they work in a Mourinho system.

Let us say its a win win for both sides. Xhakha does well in slower SerieA and we get a breather from...well.. say what Xhakha did mostly...made us unhappy.
Hopefully a fresh start for every body concerned.

Central mids who can't dribble, can't score and have the turning radius of the Suez Canal ship, do not get POT awards.
