News: Declan Rice to Arsenal

@gunnerblog on Rice: “It’s no longer between Edu & Karren Brady, it’s now a conversation between accountants effectively, people who are trying to make the numbers stack up for both sides, so this enormous transaction can take place.

It is complex, but there is no reason to panic. If anything, the people involved in making this deal are a little bit more relaxed now because everyone is on the same page.” [YouTube]

“West Ham can use the guarantee of future money from Arsenal to borrow against, to improve their cash flow in the short-term, but with interest rates high, that may not be favourable for them to do.

Arsenal, meanwhile, they’re in a position where they can borrow direct from someone very close to them - they have borrowed, up until this point, quite a substantial amount of money, into the hundreds of millions, from KSE - effectively Stan Kroenke & his business.”

“They can continue to do that & I suspect in order to get a deal the size of Declan Rice over the line, they will have to do that, but the benefit is that KSE are likely to offer Arsenal, as a sibling company, a pretty favourable rate with fixed terms that will not escalate based on interest, that’s my understanding.”

Arsenal: William Saliba already two step ahead of Mavropanos

Everyone can’t wait to see what William Saliba can be at Arsenal and, on the bright side, he’s already ahead of Konstantinos Mavropanos. Arsenal ‘s defense is going to look so damn good next season it’s gonna be mental. I know I gush about it a lot, but Mikel Arteta has worked literal magic in turning David Luiz and Shkodran Mustafi into a defense that doesn’t give up a crapton of goals per match. In fact, they give up less than a goal a game. Combined. Two of the biggest defensive “clowns” out there. United in sturdiness. Next season, we’ll be starting with fresh faces and the same defensive philosophy that Arteta has already used to rejuvenate a dead defense. Namely, William Saliba, who has joined the club from Saint-Etienne and is looking to get his footing in the starting XI. Saliba can be what Arsenal wanted Mavropanos to be Saliba isn’t the first young defender ticketed for big things, however. It was just a few years back that Konstantinos Mavropanos made ...
