Well done! You’ve just about managed to add that someone else was involved. Just… yes. Let’s move on.
Oh do me a favour and take some responsibility for yourself will you. We mentioned this earlier when I posted asking that "a few posters" stop and reflect. Something you've completely failed to do. Any normal bloke would hold their hands up and say fair enough, I played my part. Instead you've carried on with this bollocks. There's nobody else to blame for the prickly way you offered up your opinions, nor the obvious trolling, but you make it about your 'opinion' and one small exchange in the whole sorry affair as if that justified your trolling, it's not my fault guv, I was only giving my opinion. Well it isn't that, it's the way you did it. And that is down to you and nothing or nobody else.

I haven't the patience with this sort of bollocks that Rob has and have tried to draw a line under it before it goes too far............ So one final time, give the sarcastic jibes and bollocks a rest, it's gotten tedious now, for me and almost certainly every other poster in this thread.

It’s coming from arsenals camp ⛺️ No noise from spurs there down playing everything atm wait untill next week to see what happens

I'd keegan love it if we beat them to the signing after that article. It would be beautiful to see.

I suspect like Jesus this may just be another particular transfer that they have the advantage in with their Brazilian links.

My big concern is if we miss out on both Brazilians.

If the shoe was on the other foot and Alasdair Gold just put out what Ornstein did I'd be pretty confident as a Spurs fan....

Still time for it to shift but I think we'll have to start hearing similar noises from us somewhat soon for me to believe it may.

Whatever happens. I still feel Paratici is going to pull something great out the bag out of nowhere if we miss out on Raphina. No one really knows what Paratici is doing except himself. Everyone else could be fed different angles about different players, but the main target is one which no one but the man himself knows of. Just like the bissouma signing.

Would be disappointed to be honest if he did go to Arsenal. I’d much rather a more creative option like Raphinha who is arguably on a similar level to our starting RW, than someone like Richarlison who to be honest it cannot be said that he is on the same level as any of our front three. Yes he would be more versatile but I’m not as convinced as others that this should be why we sign him.

I guess after Diaz the word is we play it quiet

then again don’t see why the scum would be heavily briefing on this deal give the egg on their face if he joins us.

That poster has been on my block list for quite a while now.
Life is too short to read too much argumentative and puerile nonsense.

Btw, I don’t know if this was posted, but ValYid’s response to Matteo Moretto’s tweet yesterday saying arsenal were in pole position for Raphinha:

Exactly... whatever happens we will be more active than ever and Paratici/Conte will find the required players... if Raphinha is one of them... fine... if not... also fine ?‍♂️... (Diaz <><><> Kulu)

Because that’s what they believe state of play right now . Just have to wait untill next week to see what happens with the proposals being talked about. If they pull it off they pull it off there going for it and spending a lot of money backing fraudeta. Are they actually addressing there issues ? The judgment for all clubs will be the end of next season .

We are in a good place and fabs trying to build a structure and pyramid with in our club that was missing . We have to trust him and his team .

Generally when Ornstein is this bold and confident with a scum transfer they always complete it.

Going to be a double blow because from what I’ve seen Chelsea are going to go for both Sterling and Richarlison so we are likely to miss out on both players.

It amazes me that people are concerned about arsenal having a front 3 of Jesus, Saka and Raphina. They all prefer to play on the right, neither can hold the ball up and there's no aerial threat. Not only is our front 3 indivually better than each but they're the perfect complement. They each play in their best position too. We're after Raphina to compete and give quality in depth where arsenal want him as a sure starter.

Arsenal are making the same mistakes we've made in the window. They're looking to sign names to satisfy fans rather than what they actually need. If it was us we'd be doing our nut over their transfer strategy. So yeah I want Raphina here but not at all worried if he goes to arsenal. They may be confident but we've been confident on Eriksen and Bastoni but it doesn't mean we're getting them now.

Ah so one of those situations where Raphinha’s agent has potentially told us and Arsenal he is coming or interested and so any leaks from either club would be positive. Sorry just reading probably to much into it.
