**** me thought there had been a signing or something then

But no, just 3 pages of bickering about seemingly nothing <laugh>

^ as for the above post yeah pretty much. Can’t say anything more but ive been a long time poster on here and never claimed to be ITK before/don’t bullshit so take it or leave it. I’ll let you know who it is if it comes off.

Gonçalo Inaçio?
 
Paul merson reckons JWP is the best passer in England. Love JWP and don't want him to leave but madness to think he is the player they are missing. He has always missed the killer link up ball to play in our strikers or am I missing something.
‘They are crying out for a player who can spray the ball around from the middle of the pitch. They have plenty who can play nice, one-touch, tippy-tappy stuff but no-one who can switch the play or play a killer ball over the top.’
 
No, you're correct. That's exactly the opposite of JWP's game.
If that was coached into him then I can definitely see him being worth 60 million. But without that seems a bit mad. Imagine if we bid 60 million for him now? Sadly I think he would be ideal for someone like liverpool to replace Henderson. Surrounded by ridiculous attacking players and can be the player to calm things down.

If that was coached into him, he'd be one of the best CMs in the world. £60m isn't unreasonable given what he does provide, but his passivity with the ball at his feet (and innate desire to play deeper) is the missing piece that increasingly looks like it won't get added.

True,the 5 year contract and the fact we do not want to sell adds into it.
 
Arsenal apparently have had an opening offer of £25m turned down for JWP
I saw that headline too - (Arsenal handed James Ward-Prowse transfer instruction as opening £25m offer is rejected) - and it took me a while to work out what it meant!

It was talking about Merson’s comments on JWP as an ’instruction’ in the same headline as Arsenal having a £25m offer for Lisandro Martinez (of Ajax) turned down. Pretty misleading at worst and at best, very clunky writing.
