I could murder Chinese right now…I can’t say that now can I?
I’d like a meal cooked by my local emporium staffed by gentleman of an Asiatic persuasion
There was no intention to imply I would murder anyone, not least a Chinese peron…salt of the earth dontcherknow…
This is just a case of a journalist who is putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5.
From what Ralph and Kat said we will carry on as we always do i.e. not living beyond our means.
They board have always said we do not need to sell VVD and our business so far has been covered by the money received for Jay and Fonte.
Also It was said is that selling 80% left us debt free.
So Liverpool can keep dreaming and if we were forced to sell Virgil it won’t be to them.
Hmmmm.
Hopefully nothing to do with our Family Investors
China issued rules last month on acquisitions abroad, following a fierce campaign since the end of last year against what Beijing calls “irrational” investments that has targeted sectors including property, entertainment and sport.
If they are only concerned about irrational investments, hopefully they didn’t notice Dani Osvaldo.
There are no rules that says two mates can’t buy a plaything off of each other for no concern of what the fans of the club think, they’ll be fine don’t worry guys…
Yep
Yeah the asset stripping is in full flow.
Not related to us but China does have issues with Business and Regulations
Yep. Mr Gao put a whole lotta cash into the club then…
We were told that things will continue as they have done.
They are.
What a story.
Or…
We’ve decided to spend £15mil on someone who will be available in January and wants to come here and tied the deal up early so it doesn’t go wrong
Said someone who reads Arsenal blogs but pissed me off by not giving me a link
This rumour @dubai_phil ?
“Southampton are ready to end Theo Walcott’s Arsenal misery,” trumpets the Express in a back-page exclusive, “and take him back to the club where he began his career.” The Gunners, they report, are preparing “a January clear-out” to “bring in funds” in the laughably optimistic belief that Arsène Wenger might be about to “reshape his side”, while the Saints “are looking to boost their firepower”, all of which creates a perfect storm of emotional-homecoming-shaped proportions. If there’s going to be any competition it might come from Internazionale, with Everton and West Ham also “admirers”. “Walcott has admitted he still has a soft spot for the club,” they conclude of Southampton, “who would look to pay about £12- £15m to bring him back to St Mary’s.”
Giroud?
Either would surely want more than we pay VD. It would be another statement from the club that we are not the poor club we used to be.
With Walcot and Redmond it will be like having two Thierry Henrys. Fact.
LOL !!! 
Can’t find the takeover thread - there is an article in the Athletic today about potential takeovers saying that Gao needs to sell sooner rather than later, potentially before the end of the year.
Not much that we didn’t already know:
Assume something must be in the offing for them to bother publishing it given this stuff was all true 3 months ago
Kat needs to find an owner who has more than just the purchase price this time
Trouble is there are very few middle eastern sovereign wealth funds left
Knowing our luck we will be bought by Assad
Or Mike Ashley.
The rumour is that if you are looking to do some digging you should
And no not the fvcking Pet Shop Boys - I’m busy driving just posting in Friday traffic jams
