Ekitike is not far behind
Benjamin Sesko | Arsenal working on deal
- Thread starter UnitedSofa
- Start date
-
Nik (@Rood), Jamie (@Vault Dweller) and Ed (@That'sHernandez) give their end of season awards out! They celebrate the best players, goals and moments of the season (there were some, honestly) and also give out awards for the worst and most disappointing players/moments of the season.
They then discuss all the latest transfer rumours and get into the potential ins and outs this summer at Old Trafford.
He's more talented than Sesko, but doesn't quite bring the athleticism
Ekitike is a far better player already.
What an unserious update from Romano. He's proper scraping the barrel.
He also follows City.
But not us. Shame.
But not us. Shame.
Not sure I have only seem him this season so need to see more.
Maybe. But why would Sesko all of a sudden follow Arsenal?
Could be a number of reasons, doesn't have to be directly related. Even if it is, it hardly means anything in terms of a transfer being completed, so it's just a dumb post for someone who is a supposed transfer correspondant.
Because his social media manager wakes up one day and realizes "Oh feck, my client is linked with Arsenal and he's not even following them. Better do it now."
Exactly. For what it's worth, I do think he is probably going to you, but this certainly isn't an indication.
Social media managers are normally smarter than that as they know not to create an incident or negative, potentially embarrassing news. Im married to one - she is smart as hell and knows to protect the brand at all costs.
True. Could mean anything, but in a football/social media world where everything gets picked up, you either follow Arsenal because you know something is happening.
Sesko would look like a right plum if he follows Arsenal and next week they sign Gyokeres.
He’d just unfollow them and no one would care 12 hours later.
I would definitively prefer to sign Ekitike over Sesko if the price is similar. Gyökeres would be the best choice though.
Now compare that to Gyökeres blowing the league apart two seasons in a row. Sesko is overpriced and has everything yet to prove.
He didn't really "make it" in Bundesliga though, did he? He had one decent season, 13 goals, a meager 9th in the goalscorer ranking behind players that even were there only for half a year, as a main striker of one of the league's top teams. You could argue Leipzig's underwhelming season is connected to him not being a top player yet.
Now compare that to Gyökeres blowing the league apart two seasons in a row. Sesko is overpriced and has everything yet to prove.
Funnily enough he unfollowed Man City in the past 24 hours.
Arsenal accounts also DM'ing the agent.
He would still look like a plum for 12 hours.
You don’t follow the team that are potentially interested in you unless you’re crying out for attention or you know something is in the works.
So his social media manager’s finger has slipped twice then?
Yep, some coincidence.
German side left frustrated as Arsenal refuse to play ball in striker swoop
Arsenal needed a striker signing this summer, and after weeks of uncertainty, it is now clear that striker will not be arriving from the Bundesliga.
While a certain German side hoped to frustrate the Gunners into breaking the bank for their hitman, they have now been left red-faced.
RB Leipzig miss out as Arsenal move on
As per The Athletic, “Sources on the German side of the deal for Šeško indicate there was still room for further negotiations over the fee and his salary, but clearly not enough room to convince Arsenal, who seem to have decided to advance with Gyökeres.”
It is great to see Arsenal being that ruthless!

See him or Ekitike ending up at scousers once they have sold Nunez to most likely Napoli
And folks on here will tell you there's no alternative to Mbeumo. Arsenal doing exactly what we should have, here's the money or feck off.
Yeah because they are in a more comfortable position
We did this with Morata and ended up with Lukaku. It's a high risk move that doesn't always pay off.
