Absolutely shocking we didn’t go for him disgusted with afc.

{Ed002's Note - I explained earlier in the week that Arsenal had asked to speak with Ancelotti. You have to remember the reason why the first choice turned it down - he was asked can you work with these players - the alternate being a buy to sell situation - and if you are selling a £50M player you will only get something like £42M to buy with - and that will be reduced by agent fees and other costs, so assume perhaps £35M will be available. The club were stupid in the summer - as was explained repeatedly at the time.}

How much do you think we'll raise? Assuming a 70% reinvestment of fees, we might get 42m from Auba, about 5m from Elneny, and potentially another 15 from Xhaka + Mustafi if there are any takers. Assuming Ozil is going to Turkey or the US, that could be another 15m. We could be looking at anywhere from 35m to 70m depending on who's outbound.

The bare bones that are left, plus some canny additions, are worth top 6 maybe. I'd be fine with that if we could spend next season putting together a decent squad with some defensive abilities for a top 4 push.

Hey ED, Did you ever say who that first choice was? I’m so lost with this manager situation.

{Ed002's Note - Yes I did.}
