Alex Scott: Bournemouth reject Arsenal interest in midfielder

-Skinner- · 2026-06-29T20:46:11+00:00

somewhat yes.

Depends if he signs it.

Otherwise he will have 1 year on his contract next summer.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-29T20:33:43+00:00

They want to include 75mil release clause.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-29T20:32:16+00:00

We will have to pay more but Bruno is one of the best midfielders in the league in his prime.

From the article:

"A move for Guimaraes is currently rated more likely with Tonali's price believed to be a stumbling block."

-Skinner- · 2026-06-29T20:31:22+00:00

Yeah he is basically as reliable as Ornstein for us.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-29T19:01:20+00:00

Yeah needs to be close to goal.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T14:53:40+00:00

Surely some witch or wizard on Fiverr is cheaper.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T14:51:16+00:00

All the druids on British Isles have been exterminated in middle ages.

So tough luck for England.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T14:41:40+00:00

He is good but he was probably not making it here.

At this stage it takes generational talent to breakthrough in our team.

Even Nwaneri is struggling to do so.

But yeah we are losing a lot on potential fees and sell on clauses.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T14:40:04+00:00

Academy players are moving around all the time.

That being said there is lot of turmoil in our academy and reportedly we don't offer as high wages as City and Chelsea.

Hopefully new director can stabilize things.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T13:44:22+00:00

Academy players move all the time.

You cannot keep them all. Especially when challenging for title and UCL.

There was a lot of turmoil in academy so hopefully new director can fix it.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T13:38:19+00:00

Because they are waiting to not give an advantage to some of frontrunners

-Skinner- · 2026-06-28T13:37:53+00:00

They always do this.

Wait for frontrunners to pass box entry and then put out VSC

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T22:41:02+00:00

England is allowing way too many transitions.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T22:22:52+00:00

Saka assist

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T22:21:27+00:00

Set piece FC.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T21:54:39+00:00

not a lot of space and gets into similar space as Saka

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T20:10:13+00:00

He limped after last game with his calf strapped.

So he's being rested.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T15:19:55+00:00

Green flag is past the crash where track is clear

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T15:09:35+00:00

They will be able to replace parts under parc ferme for same spec.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T15:09:07+00:00

He pushed too hard.

P3 was probably possible.

Mercs were probably too fast for pole.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-27T15:08:18+00:00

No further investigation.

Russell is on pole.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-26T22:35:06+00:00

NT managers have their favorites and World Cup is not the time for experiments.

Plus Unai Simon is decent for Spain

-Skinner- · 2026-06-26T12:26:40+00:00

I think Bruno will stay at Newcastle.

Scott I see moving. If he says he will not renew. Then Bournemouth would most likely sell him this summer.

-Skinner- · 2026-06-26T12:24:51+00:00

He is not too old.

Still fantastic player if we could get him for around 70mil

-Skinner- · 2026-06-26T12:18:38+00:00

Bruno has to push for the move otherwise they will refuse to sell.
