[Football] Arsenal’s Ben White

[Lever]

What happened here?

Last year we were assured that White was 'desperate to join Leeds United' and that we needed to 'free Ben White'. Apparently he wasn't and we didn't.

He was lobbied hard to hand in a transfer request. He didn't.

Then a vociferous minority claimed that Bielsa (and Bielsa alone) made him the player he became at the start of last season and that we would destroy his career. We didn't, he thrived.

Now the attention turns to us cashing in. When the offer became irresistible and he wanted to go, we did cash in; and it was and is nothing to do with Leeds United,

I'd say the Leeds zealots have a seriously misplaced sense of entitlement but at least they got a chance to watch the most valuable asset in our club's history actually play for them... which is more than I did.

That should be enough for them instead of coming on here whinging and making disparaging remarks about our great club.

When the 2021/22 Albion accounts are filed, there’s a way of working out total proceeds received on transfers out in that year. Then it’s usually not difficult to apportion that between leavers. Similarly, Arsenal’s accounts will state the true spend on players in a year.

I look forward to that being worked out.

We may of course also have instalments, conditions and reportedly a sell on clause as well [emoji106]

Kalvin Philips is shit, probably the reason (along with Southgate) the reason we lost against Italy. Bielsa is also a shit manager, if he was so great how come the mighty Leeds didn't finish top 4 like many of their deluded fans insisted on last season? Sooner they get relegated and go bust the sooner they can go support Bradford or some other shit northern team

**** me you talk total and utter bollocks all the time . Philips was one of our best players at the euro and was not the reason we lost the final
Can’t wait for your Potter out and we are going down posts after 2 minutes of the new season

Who knows, perhaps we have...

Wasn't he totally dog sh1t against us at Elland Road?!!

Must wind you up a treat knowing your team lost BOTH games to BHA FC. "But we didn't have Phillips!" I hear you say....but that would make you a one man team, totally reliant on your midfield maestro......

Go back to your own forum sir, let it go now. Ben White doesn't play for either of us anymore

The good thing about company accounts transfer numbers is that definitively give the true total of fees, disregarding add ons, regardless of fee payment structure.

He’s not the one posting illiterate rubbish on another team’s forum. Philips is nearly as limited as your punctuation.

I think Kalvin Phillips is pretty good

Helmet Tool.

Clearly a great name for a very, very heavy rock band.

Actually, Helmet Jesus Tool is even better.

Yes, yes that’s the one.

Hang on…

Helmet Mate Jesus Tool …. Tops the lot.

Helmet Jesus is punchy too, MAN I can’t decide!

Pretty much but forgive me I thought we were discussing players attributes as defenders

i thought we were discussing, why doesn't bielsa work his magic with just anyone, you for example?

I'd never really got the hype around him but he was one of England's top performers at the Euros IMO.

Why you on a Brighton site on a Saturday night out of interest? Weird. Some people are just weird.

Go on your own site, tell everyone that you have the better defender in your man and let it go

Yup I thought he was really good for England.

Forgiven.

Go on then, discuss......
