1.8 million Euros (35,000 pw) after 9 years at the club. Haba Atletico. Dat one na modern day slavery for such a big club and a player you call 'important'. Your conscience should tell you he is a bird about to fly.

Athletico Madrid really disrespected Arsenal all through the window. Negotiate for Partey they said no. They even went as far as trying to sign our own DM on loan. Honestly, if I was running Arsenal, I would have even rescinded the Loan for torriera after g Partey from them.

Atletico Madrid are just being unreasonable! First they refused to negotiate with Arsenal pointing them towards the release clause even though they wanted an Arsenal player (Torreira). Second they refused to include Torreira as part of the deal to bring Party to Arsenal again insisting that the full release clause be paid. Arsenal also wanted an outright sale for Torreira but accepted the loan move because Atletico couldn't afford his relatively cheaper transfer fees. What exactly did Atletico expect from Arsenal owing to their own hard stance.

That's why Arsenal have been heralding him as if they signed a Ronaldo since. Because they paid 50m euros.

Not all clubs can cough out as huge as that amount now with the damage done by COVID 19. Most clubs have been careful with spending this window.

Honestly, they deserved what they got for their refusal to negotiate. They sure love to use release clauses.

And there's another thing most peeps don't know. We would've probably been able to get two midfielders if they'd agreed a swap deal involving Lucas Torreira that would've saved us some money. But they wanted to play us by using Lucas's preference for Spain against us.

that atleast 2 Italian clubs were interested in paying for Lucas, but all that changed the moment Atletico came knocking, and Lucas only wanted them.

Kudos to Arsenal for making them think we couldn't pay Partey's release clause cuz we were broke. They knew we needed to get players out so they forced us to accept a loan with an option to buy and could've sworn that Partey would be staying too.

But my wonderful Edu wasn't gonna be played. The Atletico board can eat shit and die for all i caregrin They got money didn't they?

I only wish Arsenal had been quick enough to accept those Italian offers even though they didn't meet their valuation. But hey, we're a good club that respects Player's wishes.

We'll get Aourar some other time, maybe someone better sef smiley

Lyon had agreed to sell Aour
An agreement had been reached already, just before the window shut.

His brother who is his agent demanded 30 million agents fee.. Then arsenal called it off..

Its all over Twitter from reputable journalists

The player wanted to leave and Arsenal was ready to have him, increase his money you refused, what would they have him do.
For all African players, they are mercenaries and football is just a way to get out of poverty, so don't blame Partey, he's playing for the money not the ion and who would blame him, he's 27 and at his prime, let him make most of the money now.
And my club was busy pricing every player in Europe and finally ended up with nothing.
You see that 6-1 thrashing by Tottenham is just the beginning, unless something is done about Maguire.
Worst defender to play for a big team.

is it possible to increase a player's wage without g a new contract with you ?

Bros I am an Arsenal fan. Arsenal are one of the best paying clubs in Europe. The only problem is the sign on fee other than that Arsenal pay their players good salary. You can goggle and confirm. They even pay better than Chelsea.

Facts.. Arsenal would have been title contenders for sure..

But lets keep our fingers crossed.. Williams can play in the middle so can ceballos..

The team is solid and has good backups..

Gabriel has been solid..
This can been seen in the lesser goals conceded and has made Leno look extra good.
Tierney has been good..
Partey is a great midfielder.. Better in the box than all arsenals present midfielders..

So going forward arsenal looks really good and with all big teams dropping points already.. Anything can happen.

Yeah, Gabriel has been pretty solid... Still can't say how comfortable Willian would be in a midfield. Heard he seldom played there at Chelsea

Something bad is going on in Laliga .. Stars are eager to move out of the territory. Same should have happened to Barca but this time 50M they thought would scare Arsenal was just huge mistake on their side.

I fear that guy each time Barcelona meets Athletico Madrid, he doesn't play football like an African, he is more like Essien. He takes decision on his own and fearless in attack and defence. Not an injury player too and fits into Diego's pattern 100 percent. His squabble with the management should have been handled by simeone if he value him so much. Same nonsense Barca did in Semendo.

I believe Atletico's grouse with the transfer was that they were not informed by either party so that they could find a replacement for him.

And I sympathise with them.

They signed a replacement on loan from Arsenal, they knew he was leaving. Forget all the stories making round, Arsenal had always informed Partey, they will get him on deadline day.

They wanted to ensure they can negotiate for other players and having the luxury of g them with staggered payment because if they had triggered Partey's release clause before deadline other clubs would want full payment.

All agreement with partey team was done as soon as the window opened reason why partey never wanted to negotiate with any other team.

You people should not type with emotions, Arsenal pay the highest wages. Most Arsenal players in the market couldn't leave because of their high wages. Most teams couldn't afford them.

Sign on fee is different from wages,Arsenal is one of the best when it comes to wages.

We needed to let him go off the wages book to accommodate partey and Athletico paid 11m for the loan. It's business there was no need being petty.
