Arsenal

That's their transfer budget blown in one hit.
.
Plus WZ must have lowered his expectations - he fancied a crack at CL football.

What rights are they standing up for?

In his case the rights of half wits to be taken seriously maybe!......

They will have add at least another £20m and Zaha might have to throw a few hissy fits to get his ‘dream move’.
Not sure where this £40m figure came from - probably something that has been leaked out to make people think they are skint when in effect they are probably prepared to dip into their reserves and spend at least £100m- a 5 year old could see that they certainly need to or will fall further behind. If Dick Emery fails to get CL this season he is a goner!

Some of the comments below are hilarious eg ‘ did he get that megaphone in a toy shop!’?

Surely you mean legend

IF CP bend over for them I'm going to be pissed.

That pound shop megaphone isn't very mega. His voice is drowning it out.

"We're going back to the 80s...we're going back to the 90s..."

I'm not even that knowledgable about Arsenal's history and even I know they won league titles, domestic cups and a European trophy during those decades.

Nonce.

 

[Spurs' Pipe Dreams]

Really interesting thread

 

[fluffybunnyuk]

love swiss rambles posts about money. always detailed and highly informative. Clearly being out of the champions league is terrible for profile, players, and the bottom line.
The problem is the arsenal fans to an extent havent adjusted their expectations. Zaha is just a pipe dream. The finances dont dictate they can afford the kind of expenditure he wants. Finishing outside the europa league places would be even more disasterous. I've got a sneaky hunch that one of the so called big 6 will miss out this year.

Don't Man Utd get 20% of any sell-on fee for Zaha?

So if Arsenal bid £40m, then Palace get £32m.

£32m for their prized asset?

Unless palace were smart and sold Aaron Wan-Bissaka to United cheaper with the sell on fee for Zaha removed?! As he was tipped to go for over 70 million at one point

Seriously can they do anything that doesn't turn them into a laughing stock :

AdidasUK’s social media campaign to promote the purchase of new kits for the Arsenal football club took a decidedly ugly and unexpected turn, after Twitter users gamed its reply bot into putting racist and anti-Semitic Twitter handles on the club’s virtual jerseys.

That is deadly. Such a fuck up by Adidas.

I saw those posts pop up on my twitter account this morning and thought someone had either hacked them or run a spoof account.

Someone's head is gonna roll.

When a simple shirt launch goes bad, this is pretty brutal.

The one using the 'N' word is probably going to viral worldwide

As things stand Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace to Arsenal not happening, will take major change(s) to materialise. Also hearing Napoli edging ahead in Kieran Tierney race but deal still there to be done. As we know cash the issue for #AFC this summer #CPFC #CelticFC #SSCNapoli

Anyone who's ever been on the internet before would've known this was going to happen.
