    Indeed, the Goons are still smarting over Vardy turning them down to stay and win more trophies with a much smaller club ... and finish above them regularly too ...

    Tielemans has 'reportedly' been desperate to join them ... but has borrowed HIAG's sat nav and can't locate London ...<laugh>

    What you need to do mate is keep him for 3 years, possibly out on loan, then put him up on the new signings thread once he's back, as the new season's 'find' ... <whistle>

    Racking up those bookmarks with the 'City reject' comments there Flos <laugh>

    As for Tielemans, the fact that he hasn't signed a contract extension and doesn't appear to be about to, should tell you everything. He's still at Lesta for now because nobody had put a bid in for him. Reportedly we want to shift a couple of players on before bringing in any more. If we want Tielemans, we'll put in a bid when we're ready <ok>

    I’m split…

    Arsenal are becoming Man City Rejects

    Tielemans will be leaving, either this year for a fee or next year for free

    In Flossy's world Brenda's gonna make him captain, which will persuade him to sign a contract extension so that they can sell him for £120m <laugh>

    He'll be leaving at some point for sure ... <laugh>

    ...not inconceivable that he signs an extension with a gentleman's agreement that we will let him go either end of season or in January if we are not looking like challenging for Europe ...if you believe what he actually says in interviews (as opposed to Ponky's "reportedly") he loves the club and recognises that we resurrected his career when it had stalled at Monaco and he was not in their then manager's plans ... <cheers>

    Which might, of course, work best for us financially if he helps us finish in a European spot ...

    No Ponks ... in the real world Brenda gave him the captain's arm band for the game at Derby on Saturday ... in your world he is "reportedly" desperate to leave ... contrary to any quotes from the player himself...<cheers>

    I think he has a genuine fondness for the club ... but of course he'll put his own interests first ... but scoring the winning goal in a cup final will be one of his lasting footballing memories... of that I have no doubt ...

    Are you sure
    Get £25m now or nothing in 12 months for a chance to earn £3-£5m out of qualifying for Europe.

    More precise qualifying for the Europa and getting to semi final is worth £5.8m, finishing 5th instead of 8th, gives you an extra £7.5m ,so £13.3, in a realistic best scenario, so you'd still be £11.7m worse off, not including his wage bonuses for qualification.

    You would need to factor in TV money from a future European campaign ... and also some commercial income ... but it's not all about the money ... otherwise clubs wouldn't try to hang on to their better players ...

    Then you'd also need to factor in the whole squads bonuses, extra wages for the extra European games. But tbf, you bought up that it would help you financially...which it wouldn't.
    For years club chairmen have been bemoaning the poor financial rewards of European competitions other than the CL

    don't think those figures are correct as i'm fairly sure it is more complicated than that as it depends on which country you are from and the teams coefficient ranking .

    Since Vardy turned us down you said, that was after the 2015/16 season, six years ago. So twice in six years Flossy.

    So tell me which club out of Arsenal and Leicester has finished above the other more regularly, as you stated, since Vardy turned us down ?

    Take your time, as figures don't seem to be your forte here <laugh>
