Time to start doing Business Steve..!!

I'm sorry, but I personally think it's practically impossible to play in Europe with such a small squad and still compete in the Premier League without any problems. Most clubs that play in Europe could even play their youngsters in their national leagues without being relegated, because there is such a big difference in quality between them and other clubs in the league (I don't think we fall into that category). And even the teams that don't face such strong competition at home often limp into the winter break with their last ounce of strength and many injured players, where they can recover for two months. But well, I'll wait and see – maybe I'm being too pessimistic.
 
I dont need to speak to him personally, why do you think he has a release clause in his contract ? If arsenal activate it, he's gone
You're assuming the clause is still valid and didn't expire last Friday. Once the clause expires (if it hasn't already) then the price for Eze goes UP not down. So, why haven't Arsenal activated it so far, if they really, really want him?

Its already been reported that the expiry date was false, it apparently expires when the new season starts and they obviously dont think he's worth what the release clause is. But anyone who thinks a player is picking us over arsenal is living in cloud cuckoo land, especially the same people defending the club and telling us how hard it is to attract certain players, so we cant attract certain players yet out current ones will turn down one of the biggest clubs in the world to stay here, yeah that makes sense.
 
There's no uncertainty over Eze, if arsenal activate his release clause he's gone, the club should already have a plan in place, in the eventuality of that happening, to use that as an excuse for why our window has been so poor is just a cop out.
You don’t learn do you.

The release clause expired last Saturday.

If Arsenal want to sign him they now have to pay whatever Palace deem to place on him.

And once again I ask you - how do you know that Palace don’t have a plan in place if he leaves ?

It didn't expire last Sunday, that was a false report it expires when the season starts, so if they have a plan in place what has that got to do with our current transfer strategy ? You know as much about transfers as you do the rules of uefa.

This. We need at least 4 or 5 quality new signings to handle 4 competitions. It's annoying how we are such a 1 step forward 3 steps back type of club when we should be building on trophy success...

I relied on multiple sites stating the release clause expired last Friday. Only one, the Evening Standard says it’s 15/8.

You can’t see the bigger picture when it comes to transfer strategy- and once again you dodge my question about a transfer ‘ plan ‘ - because you don’t know any more than I do whether one exists or not. But you’re insinuating ‘ not ‘.

I’m about as clued up on UEFA rules as most on here and my posts fall into the same category as all the others - speculation. And I’ve never claimed anything different
