Oh not another Bruno thread…
This is funny. I said in a chat with my lads just yesterday about players who have accepted / turned down Saudi offer, that I could see Trossard being a player who'd be happy to take it.
Guess we might find out now.

I too have heard he was a bit of a knob.

Always comes across to me as somebody who's a bit needy. In constant need of reassurance that he's The Man, to reinforce the idea he has of himself in his own mind.

It’ll be interesting to see his reaction to the arrival of a certain Mr Sterling.

You think I look like an Arsenal player,
You think my boots are made of leather,
But I'm a substitute, not Arteta's main guy,
I look pretty small and my studs are high,
My minutes on the pitch are somewhat complicated,
I look pretty old but I'm just back-dated, yeah.
I'd look like Ben White but my eyes are black,
If I whinge any more I'll probably get the sack,
These crocodile tears are what I cry,
Every game seems to pass me by, pass me by,
Substitute me in for Declan Rice, at least I might stay on the pitch and score once or twice, once or twice.

Not for sale at any price according to Arsenal. Will he throw a tantrum for not being allowed to take a big Saudi pay day?

My take on the Saudi offer , which seems to have come out of the blue.
Tross is not happy at not being a regular starter, gets pulled off in the Brighton game, suddenly has Sterling competing for a place and reportedly has not been happy with his playing time at Arsenal
He has his agent stir the pot with the Saudis, making them think they have a shot, and they duly put in a bid for the incredible sulk.
Its a ploy by Trossard to get more playing time, a bit of a use me or lose me thing
Saudi are the only ones likley to offer him more than he is getting at the moment, and at the start of a new world cup and European championship cycle, he may realise he isnt in the long term plans of the Belgium manager
He isnt getting any younger and his options for a huge money move are limited, so if Arsenal call his bluff (as Brighton did) he could take the money and run

I don't get these type of players. Tross is only ever effective as a super sub, sometimes devastatingly so. What's not to like, you come on and score/assist/effect the game often, the fans always love you for this, they rarely get frustrated with you (as they do when you start and you're anonymous), you are less likely to get injured because you play less minutes therefore you play all season. Ole loved that role and I would too. He always looks so miserable. Shame.
He was.. nothing. Every part of their game revolved around attacking Ödegaard and Saka on the other wing, not easy for him. But Joel Veltman won every duel against him. Sure, he came to a shot and a cross or two but not from the positions he wanted.Did he not lay off a nice chip (his party piece for us) that should have been put away? He really wasn’t shit like some are saying
Mitoma was not much better for us, and he wasn’t shit either

I think that's a pretty fair assessment and further proof that he's a panda eyed sulky git!
