    Yeah sounds like a prediction to me...I'm getting my stamp out to confirm it unless Piskie retracts his brash comment

    I’d rather Isco. More like for like and Bale’s injuries are a concern, plus he’s on mega money so would need to take a huge pay cut. Isco’s on £120k, we could offer him a rise if he were to join.

    The players they will ship out will be the old guard ...

    Isco is a quality player. Would love him at Arsenal tbh, maybe we’ll do a deal with Özil in the summer ? .....

    Isco’s position likely won’t change much. Been on the fringes for a while. Even with old guard shipped out, they’ll just be replaced.

    Doubt even Real would wanna pay Ozil £350k and that’s chump change for them. Plus a lot depends on where you (and us) finish this season, outside of CL and no way Isco would join.

    It’s been coming, as I said earlier. Last year’s CL win glossed over the fact that they finished 3rd in La Liga - 17 points behind Barca.

    They should have acted last summer - didn’t, and now they’re copping the consequences.

    If Real bought Eriksen in the summer then I think that could spell the end of Isco’s time there. He’d attract top dollar though. If you were doing a deal with Real over Eriksen/Isco then I don’t think there would be a huge difference in values tbh. You’d get some money your way plus the player, but it wouldn’t be a huge fee.

    Yeah I can’t see it happening either. Not sure what’s going to happen with the Ozil situation tbh. Emery clearly doesn’t fancy him in the big games and he’s too expensive to have a £350k player on the bench.

    As for Isco, if Eriksen goes to real then Isco will be out. He’ll probably get snapped up by somebody like PSG who’ll pay over the odds

    Yeah I’d be pretty happy with that too. I’d much rather we just offered a blank cheque to Eriksen but realistically I know he’s off, a straight swap for Isco would be good, if we got any money from it then that’d be a bonus.

    Yeah he’s quality. I’ve wanted him at Arsenal for a few seasons now. We’ll be in the market for a creative mid in the summer with Ramsey going, but I don’t think we’re going to be able to afford Isco

    True. If we miss out on CL football again then we can forget it. Emery’s first season was about steadying the ship after the toxic atmosphere that was surrounding our club, if he gets top 4 or wins the Europey pot this season and gets us back in the CL, then it would be an amazing achievement

    Excellent player if you can get him ... haven't seen as much of Eriksen as you guys, but from what I've seen of both, I'd favour Isco <ok>
