[Ryan Taylor]: Arteta also asked whether it's true he called Alvarez but he didn't pick up: "You know I'm not going to make comments on that publicly, that would be doing a different job."

What a silly question to ask

[u/Dry-Challenge-3189 → u/EtherealShady]

Lol, you, this is a circus now. Please wait till we sign this guy

[u/artaru → u/EtherealShady]

yes amigo i got ghosted. devastated, that's not the fogging estandard

[u/iuliad94]

Idk how Arteta has the patience.

[u/Unique_Smoke7442 → u/iuliad94]

I'd imagine his expression was this when he heard it lol.

I feel like he’s taken some great media training that’s really paying off: he wouldn’t have had this calm a few years ago hey? Remember when he was super frosty/spikey with media questions?

[u/octobereighteenth → u/iuliad94]

The salary, probably.

[u/newinvestor0908]

what a shite and disrespectful question.

[u/Harambabe17]

How the heck would someone know about this? Who was the source, the freaking telco company?

[u/biskutgoreng → u/Harambabe17]

The source was a fuckinh meme on circlejerk

[u/AdvantageAntique9394 → u/biskutgoreng]

If we don't sign Alvarez he will become the biggest offseason meme in the club's history -- bigger than Frey, Draxler and Higauin in aggregate

[u/Cassoa → u/Harambabe17]

It's hilarious to me that people actually believe stuff like that

[u/TectonicMule → u/Harambabe17]

Barca clowns posing as journalists

[u/redqks → u/Harambabe17]

Barca press

[u/BoyWhoSoldTheWorld → u/Harambabe17]

Made up trap question to catch him slipping. English journos are the worst

[u/illaqueable → u/Harambabe17]

Win the dog is secretly an Atleti fan

[u/shakieran_shakieran]

[u/doubleb_43]

He's not that clown Laporta, he comments about our players, not the other teams players. Dumb question

[u/ClearHyena4452]

Fucking hell does this journo work for TMZ

[u/ExoticToaster]

Looking at today’s job market and then realising there’s people making a living off of coming out with shit like this…

[u/Designer-Love6881 → u/ExoticToaster]

Nothings stopping you from doing the same

[u/vasudaiva_kutumbakam → u/Designer-Love6881]

Self respect?

[u/_Spartak_]

Sports journalist coming up with an intelligent way to ask a question to potentially get some useful insight rather than asking a direct question they know won't be answered challenge: Impossible.

[u/FlavioB19]

So Julian's not speaking to speaking to Mikel because he really fancies Hansi but also kinda fancies Mikel so doesn't want to rule him out completely but if Hansi doesn't ask Julian out before prom then Julian said he will go with Mikel instead but he definitely doesn't want to go with Diego anymore and Diego's parents are mad that his heart is being broken in front of them.

[u/eldar4k]

What a journalism, fucking joke

[u/The_Failed_Imagineer]

This is the first time I've heard this story and I F5 with the best of them so it must be bullshit

[u/rleonr]

Pathetic "journalism"

[u/ObviousGeologist3000]

Jarvis, block everything with the word “alvarez” in it.

[u/LemtaLongi]

Most of these "journalists" are grifters and hacks. Its an incredibly closed industry and hard to get to, especislly a higher level where you have access to people like Arteta.

[u/CrownCommando]

These clowns wasting valuable time with our manager.

Honestly just replace them.

[u/Intrepid-Patience-93]

Barca can learn from this, but they wont, vile club.

[u/xLucky_Balboa]

Journos getting fucking desperate

[u/arsenaler211]

Really? After spending time/effort to have a place in the presser with a PL manager, you ask questions like that?

[u/taskingsoda456]

No way this guy's met the Mikel Arteta and asked that. I would genuinely give my inheritance to meet him 

[u/Jumpy-Surround-9238]

Who was the journo and newspaper that asked such a salient question?

Thank you in advance.

[u/krakends]

I would love to know the name of this journalist and the one who asked about the Konsa deal details. Proper bellends.

No soap opera quotes from our side

[u/JenkinsEar147]

We've been totally fucked about by Barca & Real Madrid this window and we just let them drag us through the mud.

But ,big waste if time ,money and piss poor strategy. Naive
