I’m relatively unstressed about Auba and Gabriel tbh.

I’m more conscious we’re probably starting the season with Elneny or Willock if Torreira leaves seen as we’re not close on a new midfielder right now.
That's why hurrying up and getting the two nearly done out of the ****ing way would be a good idea.

We dont need a big fanfare when a current player signs a new contract. I hope when they announce the Gabriel signing tomorrow or next week, they juts tag an "Oh btw, Aubameyang has signed a new contract!" on the end!

I doubt there’s no capacity to get in new players just because they’re probably hammering out legal details with Gabriel and Auba.

I think we just have to be aware that the transfer market has stalled massively for most clubs because the finances just aren’t there due to Covid.

It’s clear that we’re waiting to sell players to clubs who are waiting to sell players. Most journalists think once the season starts getting closer things will start happening.

Not a massive coincidence to me we’ve seen a lot of movement from Ligue 1 clubs and their season has already started.

Probably but the slowness with which the club functions is pitiful. Even Willian took a week too long.

“there will be a deal for Auba soon”

“soon”

Probably just stringing it out to 1st Sept, saves us £50k per week the longer we wait. Yes, I really do think Arsenal think like that, they just sacked 55 people earning peanuts!

League is very weak
60 league goals in the next 3 seasons from my bro Auba. As I have been saying for months, you’re buying goals.

Let’s go.

Without knowing, I suspect the contract would be expressed in an annual sum rather that weekly salary. Can't imagine we will save money kicking the can down the line like that

People complain about AFTV and the like being detrimental to the club as a whole, but I have to say observations from those quarters of joy needlessly being sucked out by dragged out closing outs of deals and announcements, both for Auba and Gabriel, fits a pattern of being pretty poor when it comes to backroom culture for this club, and fostering of good relations with the supporter base.

His new monthly salary will start after he signs a new contract, so it does have an effect monthly. I agree its not a huge amount but neither was the wages of 55 people the club have sacked!

If I was him I'd hold out too. You never know Barca, PSG and the likes might get desperate and just decide to sign him. Barca are losing Messi it looks like, Suarez has been told he can leave how are they gonna replace those goals? No better man for a couple of seasons than Auba.

It doesn't help that looking at our midfield options are horrendous, he'll be getting sub-par service here unless we go out and sign two midfielders at least. I wouldn't be so quick to commit just yet.

He's waiting for us to sign a midfield

I think this is the most likely reason, and I don't blame him. If I was Auba I'd be doing exactly the same, the club need to show ambition! Willian will help but we really need Partey & Ceballos agreed to give us a chance of top 4. Obviously Gabriel as well but that's any day now.

Arsenal Quotes

One of the things I discovered in Japan was from watching sumo wrestling. At the end you can never tell who has won the fight, and who has lost, because they do not show their emotion because it could embarrass the loser. It is unbelievable. That is why I try to teach my team politeness. It is only here in England that everybody pokes their tongue out when they win.
