    Suspect the leaks about Partey being available have come from Arsenal with the Saudi negotiation team in town this week.

    There’s no way anyone in Italy can afford his wages and if we were to sell him we’d want a transfer fee which no club in Europe would pay when he is on 250k per week.

    It’s a come and take him plee to the Saudis so we can reinvest the funds on his replacement while he still has value.

      A bit surprised to find I am A-OK with him going this summer. I think the whole possible/probably rape saga from the last season has really soured me, despite how great he was.

      Tough to banter about footy with friends when literally all they have to do is bring him up to shut it all down.

        I have really soured on Partey too. I feel like each of the players has a good vibe about them but this was hanging over Partey all last season.
