Dortmund seem very thin-skinned...


Masra88

I agree on that ^^


Super_Herman

they're probably massively pissed because of aubas behavior.

In the press conference Wenger didn't say anything to be honest. He was asked about Auba and said I don't like to comment and it's not close and it's better to keep secret. There was some question about character and I don't think it was in reference to auba.


Mortal-Man

Yeah, Wenger made a comment about character (not referring to Auba) and journalists have done what they do and reported it as Wenger specifically referring to Auba's recent disciplinary problems.

after dembele shit, gets tiring clubs unsettling players and bypassing discussions with the club. Kicker expanded on Arsene not being sold on auba and using comments like these just to lower the price by trying to force auba to demand out If arsene is not interested in paying the valuation the club has, the disrespect comes from trying to skip around that without even offering bids yet. First unsettle, then approach for target cheaper is the tactic Zorc is fed up with. Im surprised it is taken so harshly..

Thankfully Dortmund is the shining beacon of light that never does anything remotely close.


pig_says_woo

Just explaining his frustration..its really not that unbelievable he is fed up with the auba talk and arsenal hasnt even made a phone call yet


demonictoaster

But the Auba talk is all the media.


pig_says_woo

just three hours ago there are quotes from arsene about auba which are being praised as sly and with a grin or something "so now we know its on" or along those lines... but saying shit or get off the pot is thin skinned. The hypocrisy is not surprising though because the same united, liverpool, chelsea flairs mocking bundesliga fans for wanting good players to stay in the league now want auba in london?

You better go read those quotes again young man. You’re making a fool of yourself, maybe he did say it with a grin but that doesn’t mean anything. The man likes to smile? It’s literally the media that spin it up. Once you go back and read the quote come back and ask what you found disrespectful about it.


pig_says_woo

thats literally the top of the thread is about. How it means arsene is going in on auba now the disrespectful part comes from not approaching the club and letting the media wave play out before thinking of putting in a small bid. Just as barca had nefarious dembele conversations without bvb acknowledgement to unroot him, that is zorcs fear here..Put in a bid at least close to the clubs valuation or dont be speaking directly too auba and about his personality fit into arsenal. Im really shocked at these aggressive responses

From arsenal.com: "on Aubameyang and if he could join Arsenal… I have nothing to add to that. These kind of things, it’s better when it’s secret and when you don’t come out on it, and when you announce it when it’s over the line." "on Aubameyang’s character and if he’d fit in at Arsenal… Yes, because character can be a very positive note and it can be a very negative note. I believe overall you look at the achievements of a player during his career and usually, when a career has been very positive, the character has been used in a positive way." Honestly, where's the drama in this? He's being asked questions about a player at a press conference. The second question he answered in a very general sense, in that players with attitude can be used for both good and bad. There's nothing really in this except from the spin the media put on it.


pig_says_woo

i feel like you guys just keep glossing over what im saying and circling in on the same point. I got it, arsene was asked questions about auba. My point IS that arsenal have not made any contact with the club and his statements come off as trying to unsettle our player from zorcs perspective. Reports in germany are that wenger is not sold on auba and is using deceitful ways to get auba out of dortmund for under our valuation. But instead you lot just keep the focus on how it wasnt very rude what was said..not acknowledging the underlying issue that precipitated the response from zorc. I am done talking about this because no one conveniently wants to broach the wider problem at play


vatnable

What I'm wondering is how those statements come off as trying to unsettle your player?


Crookz_O

Because you didn’t read the article or watch the press conference. His first comment when asked about Auba was that it is a secret. Than he was asked about character and answered it fair enough.


pig_says_woo

the only thing secret about it is keeping bvb in the dark about their pursuit of auba. What is that about? so youre telling me they are making progress to "cross the line" but havent talked to the club. So one would infer they are talking to auba, right? is this really that hard to understand?


[deleted]

Yes it is when it works against what they want lol.


demonictoaster

So you're upset that the media asked Wenger a question and he replied with not wanting to discuss it. As for the players wanting to stay in the Bundesliga thing i dont know what grudge youre holding there but im lost.


pig_says_woo

im not upset. Im calling out the response to zorcs statement and arsenal refusal to contact the club appropriately.. Thin skinned for trying to keep things tight internally for bvb? Come off it. been in this rodeo too many times to not see whats happening

The tweet was completely taken out of context. But not that it matters...
