Never going to happen. File under "more rubbish on Twitter during the school holidays"
Wow I wish Brighton would have made a move for Perez. £5 million is a steal, he's a fantastic forward.Seems like Southampton are favourites to sign him but I would love to get Welbeck. I've always been a fan and think he's been massively under rated over the years.
Talking of Arsenal reject forwards, I see Lucas Perez is set to join West Ham for £5 million. I think that is probably West Ham's best signing of the summer, he's a really good player and not been given a chance by Arsenal. £5 million is a bargain.
£70k a week kills that one stone dead...
It isn't going to happen because it doesn't fit our normal profile of player, but I like Welbeck. If Motivated and fit (and that is the big if) I'd say he could do well for us, and £15m is decent value.
Welbeck is gash.
Fact.
Successive England managers don’t seem to think so......
Or have I been whooshed! [emoji23]
Does it? What is the most we pay anyone at the moment? I've seen £45k mentioned on here for our top earners in the past.
His £70k deal is from 2014 when he signed for Arsenal, before the mega TV deal doubled what agents started demanding when negotiating new contracts.
He ain't going anywhere for less than £100k a week plus bonuses. That's more than £20m over the course of a 4 year contract. We wouldn't commit to those figures on a fit player, so why would we do it for a player who averages just 24 games a season for the past 8 seasons?
Don't do it to yourself, he ain't coming.

This would be one helluva statement signing, 'Welbs' is a top, top player and would signal our arrival into the upper echelons of the PL, he wouldn't come here unless there was some serous ambition to push the club further.
Are you familiar with Crodo's posts?Believe me, we are nowhere near the 'upper echelons' of the Premier League, we finished 15th last season, and this is only our second year in it!
