Quote:Can’t say I’m bothered, but the reasons are believed to be Ozil wages and that Emery doesn’t need two of emBergmars
Travesty and false economy must be more to this than we are aware

Shouldn't be losing a player like this for free.
We need to be ran better.

Juventus are reportedly prepared to offer Moroccan centre-back Medhi Benatia to Arsenal in order to get a deal over the line for Aaron Ramsey this January. Ramsey becomes a free agent in the summer and the 28-year-old midfielder has agreed to join Juve where he is set to become the club’s second-highest paid player behind Cristiano Ronaldo. However, Juventus are yet to reach an agreement with Arsenal and the Serie A club are exploring every avenue in order to win the race for Ramsey. Gazzetta dello Sport suggests that Juve are set to include Benatia in any potential deal for the Wales international.

I'd rather just have some money.

Signed his contract today according to the BBC having passed his medical. Becomes the highest paid British player of all time with a basic salary of £400k p/w.
Will depart the club after 11 years.

Yes it was Wenger and Gazidis that let it happen. Then Ramsey demanded an alleged 240k per week so they told him to feck off

They're saying that this is the way forward for players now, just run down your contract and get a final bumper pay day. That could backfire if nobody wanted you as the end of your contract came nigh. I'm sure Theo refused to sign a couple of contracts ago hoping for a big club to come n for him. We ended up re-signing him!

Ah well that's the end of Juve's success if they insist on playing such a selfish player who plays a part in promising attacks only for it to break down and destroy all the good with a stupid back-heeled flick imagining that he's some kind of super Brazilian of old. Emery prefers unselfish team players.

Yes. It will be juventus' success. Litterally every big club on the planet wanted him except arsenal.

Spot on.
He'll be at Juve 2 years max and then will come back to England a failure.

Truth is they all mainly wanted him cus he's free, decent squad player and at a good age. Let's not suddenly pretend Ramsey is world class and above Arsenal. He's been here 11years and only 1 season was he the best player in the team.
Even if he flops, Juventus can command 40m for him from an English team. Although getting him off that salary will be the issue like we have with Ozil.
Quote:Padre Pio
Lets put argument about how good he is on the back burner, clearly he was expecting very high wages from Arsenal, we already have several players who have distorted the wage system at Arsenal. Do we pay Ramsey £400k pw and buy no one else or let him go and bring three decent defenders in?
That is the reality of our club

And Aaron says, no thanks I have a contract; Im staying to hang out with Ozil

Yes, let's ignore all of their world class scouting networks at the biggest clubs in the world and say they only want him because he's free. There are literally dozens of opportunities for clubs to sign players in identical situations and they all wanted Ramsey.
