[Football] Leandro Trossard **Sold To Arsenal 20/01/2023**

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

He's from the Flemish (Dutch) speaking part of Belgium.

Not a Wally or a loony, then?

 

[Swansman]

Ok fee and Arsenal get a decent squad player.
Trossard himself is the big winner though.

 

[Wardy's twin]

Yep, there's a reason Arsenal are buying him for (relatively) big bucks. But I trust in what TB and Co are doing here...

Agreed but as you say I would rather trust Bloom than the alternatives.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yeah ok. None of us can really know that though.

De Zerbi has made several comments in regards to training.
In one of his early press conferences he said he was surprised the players get a day off.

I think he has very high standards expects the maximum from his players.
His comments about Trossard can get even better results, may be code for him thinking he isn't putting enough into training.
Or not.

He said before the WC that Tossard was operating at 80% (of his capacity) and it was clear Bob de Z wasn't happy with Tossard about this.

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

Clear evidence that he is just pretending to speak French but you can't notice the difference. You're living a lie.

That'll explain the haircut I had in Angers.

 

[Silverhatch]

Only a good deal if we now spend well. Will be a big miss .Only player that could make space and lose defender to shoot or pass in a central position

Ferguson?

Who'd have thought in the summer that we would lose Bissouma, Cucurella, Maupay, Trossard, Potter & co, Roberts, Bruno, Winstanley by January and be 7th in the league and not getting wet sheets over it. ~£160m for the lot is not bad business at all.

Edit: And as Tim says, sadly losing Mwepu as well.

And we're the 23rd richest club in the world

Never imagined that sitting in the Withdean wiping rain out of my eyes.

This could be a masterstroke. I have a feeling we will sign a replacement in January and the fee is good, all things considered. Also Arsenal have still to play many of the teams around us, so this could help us secure a better league finish.

Liked Tross and will miss him but some players just don’t fit with a new manager and so far, you can’t argue with RDZ’s results.

 

[macbeth]

free ticket to a pl winners medal, happy for him to go. shame it had to end like that but that was of his own doing. does now mean that we have ought to be bringing someone in soon though

 

[WhingForPresident]

And sadly Mwepu

Good point. Was watching the Leicester highlights back the other night, reminded me what a huge miss he is.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Murray, Zamora, Stevens, Robinson, Lawrenson, Gregory, Saunders

Cox, Gyökeres, Horton, Foster....

 

[raymondo]

Is this the first time we've sold a player to the top team.... Lawro? Foster?...someone on here will know!

 

[maltaseagull]

I think that's true but isn't he on record saying he would only move if he still got regular football?

What he said maybe but he cannot stay at Brighton unless he apologises and changes his attitude.
Bet to let him go and be a squad member at Arsenal.

Doesn't he have to play a certain number of games to qualify for a medal?

My dream scenario is that he acts up and misses out on a medal and goes out on loan to a Championship club next season!

 

[raymondo]

Seems a decent fee. I'll miss the binoculars goal celebration though.

Welbz will do it one game

 

[The Fits]

£27 million, we've done very well there all things considered.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Cox, Gyökeres, Horton, Foster....

Beeney, Barry, Case.....

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Beeney, Barry, Case.....

Nogan, Smith, Barnes....

it's five appearances (sub appearances count) to qualify for a medal
