    signed for them and was found not good enough and discarded to be fair.

    I’ll take the Woodgate suggestion and put another left back in there - Royston Drenthe.

    Genuinely one of the best left backs in the world, definitely top ten, and people say he's not good enough for Real Madrid?

    Reminds me of the huns saying Barasic was better than him.

    No doubt in my mind that KT would be a great signing for Madrid but the point stands. If they see him as cover it will only stifle his progress.

    Would love to see him at a club like Real Madrid. Deserves far better than Arsenal.

    It would be unreal to see him at a club like Madrid.

    I think him being “not good enough” is ludicrous. Arsenal have been raving about him since day 1 so the only next step is a Madrid type team.

    The only left backs in the world I’d say are better would be Alphonso Davies, Jordi Alba, Theo Hernandez and unfortunately the current Real LB Mendy.

    I don’t think Robertson is better. I don’t think Shaw is better. Both are excellent but are overrated and don’t have the same mentality KT has.

    Whilst I agree mosty... Robertson has went from being dropped at Celtic and going to Queens Park to a Champions League winner and Scotland captain. He absolutely has a top drawer mentality.

    Im more meaning on the field during a game. He’s not got that bite KT has. In terms of getting to the top level, Robertson has that.

    Aye, I’m with you there. I’d also add Davis into that, he’s insane but defensively he’s nowhere near Tierney. When you’re that quick you never tend to learn the basics of positioning.

    15% of profit.
    So, for every £1mn they get above the £25mn they paid us we get £150k

    Eg: Arsenal get £35mn. Thats £10mn profit so we get £150k x 10 = £1.5mn

    Arsenal is also upset with Real Madrid . With the interference of Florentino Pérez. The London club is struggling with the white club's interest in Kieran Tierney , one of the revelations of Arteta 's team this season. At Barça they also have good reports of the Scottish footballer.

    Tierney is a 24-year-old left-back with a lot of offensive projection. At Real Madrid they consider that he would be the ideal substitute for Marcelo , but they do not want to pay a very high transfer fee for him. Currently, the market value of him, according to Transfermarkt , is 32 million euros.




    Sixth place in the Premier
    Arsenal, sixth classified with 42 points in 23 games , has improved the performance of recent seasons. And one of the players who is performing at a higher level is Tierney, whose contract the London club intends to renew until June 2027.




    Tierney arrived at Arsenal in 2019, from Celtic . He is a player of 1.80 meters and very intense. The Scotsman has a contract with the London club until June 30, 2024.




    A substitute for Alba
    Real Madrid and Barça have been interested in the footballer. In both clubs they have good reports of him. At the Camp Nou they believe that it could be Jordi Alba's replacement in the medium term. The Scot is part of a list of left-backs headed by Gayà, which also includes Theo Hernández (Milan), Grimaldo (Benfica) and Guerreiro (Borussia Dortmund)

    Hope it works out and he makes the move assuming that is that we have a sell on profit clause that would benefit us like we did with Van Dijk.
