    No,maybe they're just passionate about their club and don't like it when a 17 year old screws it over! Glad it gets him out,maybe we can forget about him now and get a few players in that wanna be here.

    Now now people come on you can't blame the guy whether it turns out to be a good move for him or not!
    We have de ridder now and I'm sure they will be looking to reinvest quite a lot! We could bring in a couple of players of top quality and still have funds! This could be a really good thing for us and our promotion chase!

    Can't help but feel a bit gutted :/ but still good to see we've rinsed Arsenal for 12million, a lot more than he's worth IMO, looking at the positives this cash from this sale could bring us the extra investment that gets us promotion...

    Yep agree,there ya go mate,10 years of helping the kid out and him signing a 3 year contract last year and all of a sudden it's not good enough.Football is all about the money and if i didn't love it so much i'd give up on it.

    Will people just calm down and get a grip?

    £10 million plus for him? I'm laughing quite frankly.

    Did anyone actually see how well we did without him on Saturday?

    Disappointed he's not staying but would wish him well there. Don't really care what he's done to get the move as it was mainly daddy's wish. Sadly Wenger will ruin the development of him and again another future prospect may not reach there full peak because of the set-up at Arsenal. But whose going to complain £12m for a League 1 player!! MARVELLOUS!!

    i don't see why people are so angry, according to fourth official on twitter, who reported the AOC saga before ssn, we are getting an upfront fee of 7m with additional clauses. that is some nice money to reinvest

    Life goes on. When the big 5 come knocking not many don't leave it's all about the money.

    Possibly, but we might have spent it on Billy Sharp and now he's crocked! At least this way we can see who is making the early impressions on the league(s)....

    Yeah but if we let him go then thats alright but its the fact he has come out and said that he thinks hes ready for the Premier League and hes only 18! He's got another thing coming if he thinks hes going stright into that team.
