    Actually, losing Chambers isn't that bad as long as we keep Clyne.

    It's easy to say "well if players want to leave then what can they do", but I think the trick is not to get into a situation where everyone worth anything is desperate to leave.

    You're asking the wrong question and getting angry at the wrong thing I think Tom.

    You need to be asking 'why' he (and all the others) have asked to leave......we really need to be asking that now.

    We don't know it's 100% true yet. I won't file him in the same category as Lallana and Lovren just yet.

    I have to be honest, if this trend continues, perhaps Twatbeard and Scroat aren't quite the Machiavellian turds we're casting them as.

    Can't blame him for wanting to leave when someone like Arsenal come along, but with all the other players leaving this summer board should be a lot stronger. At least make some kind of effort to keep him and even if they know the likelihood is that he won't it would drive the price up.

    There must be a reason if everyone is wanting to leave, yeah. Not good at all.

    I was told explicitly about a month ago that arsenal had enquired for chambers and the club didn't even dignify with a response. What's changed?!

    Yeah, I know, but hmmmm.......this update would lend itself to the less positive of the options regarding what's happening at the club.

    It's not the fact that losing him isn't bad, it's the fact that he's not a high profile player or even our most valuable asset yet we still can't do enough to keep him. It begs the question how the **** do we intend to show the ambition that Schneiderlin requested to keep him and Jrod?

    Arsenal bought Debuchy and don't need more RBs. He's not even first choice here!

    One of the most worrying aspects of this is that I agree with you Olly....

    Imagine Ross Barkley. "Ross, some champions league teams are in for you but you're very highly valued here and we'll do all we can to keep you." Huh, maybe it's not impossible to keep stars.

    Gordon Simpson - Echo: "No formal offer from Arsenal for Calum Chambers yet, but clubs in discussions. #saintsfc understood to be expecting £16m bid."
