Disgraceful....we have built a foundation from youth acadamy, to the reserves and first team. If we sell our club, then you can forget about the youth academy. Obviously we would hope for a owner like Barca would give the young players a chance and if needed, buy 1 or 2 world class player every year. But if we were to sell our club to an owner like RA, i wouldn't want my team to have an interim manager every year. Before Manchester City was brought by the Sheikh Mousour, he wanted to purchase Arsenal and for obvious reason we said No. I hope the story is fake and if it true i hope we stop them.

It's not true, check this out
@bbcsport_david: Serious Middle East interest never advertise plans. Qatar/UAE buying together v.unlikely. Long-winded anonymous source out of character #afc
@bbcsport_david: Takeover experts spoken to all say valuation of £1.5bn is way over the top for Arsenal, especially if no Champions League #bbcfootball #afc
@bbcsport_david: Not saying there isn't interest or bid won't arrive (always possible) but would be rejected. Parts of story unusual & timing suspicious #afc

I just can't see it, it doesn't make sense. We've almost paid off the debt, why do all this now ? It would just contradict our philosophy and all the work that's been put in until now

No, because Arsenal is already a big club.
I'm very conflicted over this possible buy out. We all want success. It's been so long it feels like the effing promised land. But, at what cost? I support Arsenal because of its identity. The way we play and the way we do things off the pitch, and on it. Arsenal is my club and I'm not sure I want to hand it to the kind of people who are willing to spend £1.5b just to make a statement, the club is worth nowhere near that and we all know this.

People talk about value, but the club is worth whatever people want to pay for it. The question is, is 1,5 billion enough for Kroenke (and Usmanov). They will decide I'm afraid
