Arsenal will bid again after 2 proposals rejected in the recent weeks. They are not giving up at this stage.
…both City and Arsenal had plans to bid for Rice this week.
And this the bidding war that West Ham was waiting to happen has begun.
I guess it was inevitable. The worrying part is that they wouldn’t bid if there was no interest from the player’s side
Well, time to focus on our backup plan. I don’t really see him picking us over City.
Why do you say that? He’s repeatedly stated he wants to come to Arsenal.
Part of it is me preparing for the worst. The rational reasoning is did he say that after City showed interest - because City are currently the best team in Europe. And Rice probably looks at this as changing jobs. Our perspective as fans is different from a footballer’s. City looks like the more rewarding job right now surely.
I understand the pessimism friend, but we have to dream!
If not now, then when?
Enjoy the ride 🤪
