So you think it's worth it for someone else to pay at £10m transfer fee, and still have to pay out £100k+ per week on wages... but not worth it for us to just do the wage bit?

How does that work?

Bigger clubs with more money, and sugar daddies dont have to balance the books, Textor is worth 27m, our main beneficiary and major shareholder, Stanley Kronke Arsenals major share holder is worth 12 billion, Chelsea s Boehly 5 billion not to mention Newcastle and Man City, 130k a week, and 10m fee is a pittance for them

Which is why those clubs have players on salaries north of £200k per week.

£20m over 3 years for a club our size is still a pittance.

Also, Textor is worth a hell of a lot more than £27m - his stake in our club alone is a reported £87m and his net worth is estimated closer to $250m.

When you consider the situation, clubs are likely to do a deal starting next season. They are unlikely to pay us 10 mil in January. So it seems that Wilf will be here until the end of the season. Whether he will be happy about that I don't know.
Next season, somewhere else.

Depending upon the extent of the Jesus injury at arsenal I could see them coming in with an offer... they'll probably start the bargaining at 1m... I'd take 10m plus Reiss Nelson.

Agree about Textor, not sure of his personal wealth but it seems he has some very wealthy “backers”

For me it would depend on the potential player we could get in to replace Wilf . If we could get in someone with say the qualities of Sarr for 10 mill and wages of 80 to 100k per week then i would let Wilf go . He has been and still is a quality player but he would want 10 mill signing on fee plus 150k per week at least for him to stay with us. IMO

i also think our Key players are Eze, Andersen, Olise, Guehi and Doucoure, its more important to keep that 5 than Wilf,

Sarr is not as good as Wilf and would cost closer to £40m than 10.

That's really the point I'm trying to make - similar clubs to us spend tens of millions trying to find the sort of output we get from Wilf and still don't manage it.

The idea that we can replace his quality with £10-20m to invest is fairy tale stuff.

It depends how you define 'key' but in terms of current contribution to the team, I think that's a hard argument to make - as exciting as Eze and Olise are, they scored 1 and 2 goals respectively in the whole of last season.

I think those 5 are hugely important to retain for our medium term future but I think Wilf is still our 'best' player at the moment.

I tend to agree with this.
I suspect we would just about survive without Wilf for the rest of the season, yet we could be comfortable enough with Wilf. As long as doesn't throw a total strop, which may not be entirely out of the question. His wishes are bound to come into it somewhere. If Arsenal made a reasonable offer, I would think he'd want to go. But they do have other, younger players who look ok - and reportedly other targets, so not sure they would.

Is Sarr not in his last 6 months and can leave for free in the summer ? I think he is every bit as good as Wilf .
