Agreed. I know Roma fans who were hoping they'd buy him but said it was unlikely to happen for financial reasons.

He's not gonna replace Buffon for a decade so people need to stop going nuts.

Numerous Roma fans praise him.

Many Arsenal fans want him back.

Badass - He's a piece of shit.


I know which side is the one of reason in this instance.



He's replacing Neto, not Buffon. At most if there's no realistic alternative he'll play a season rotating heavily with Buffon until we make a move for an actual heir.

So you think we are going to pay 4m wages to our 2nd keeper? Do you think that is smart business?

How much would the actual Gigi heir demand in wages then? 12m?

Neto has 2M, Szczesny currently has 3M, if you want him to give up a starting role you give him better wages

Do you think he'll accept 3M (Current wage) to come sit on a bench?


As for the last comment. Lol. What kind of logic is that? There's so many variables in what wage the next 1st choice GK will get, implying the Sczc 4m wages has a significant effect on the future goalkeepers wage, beyond obviously wanting more than the bench gk, is a a leap too far.

Still a very bad deal if he's planned only as a 2nd keeper. If we are signing him they obv want him as Gigi replacement in a year or two.
Dont know about a year or two ahead but for right now hes an improvent for Neto and id be much less worried in case of an injury to Gigi with him as backup

Roma and arsenal's standards are well below our own. The fact that you listen to arsenal fans opinions alone is laughable. Arsenal fan tv shows what a fickle bunch of pricks they are

If quite a lot of Arsenal fans rate him enough to be their first choice GK, he's more than capable of holding down our BENCH spot. Big difference.

As for AF TV, it's hilarious yes. But there's also plenty of great opinions on the failings of their team and I see nothing on AFTV I don't see on Juventuz or any other football social media platform ever made. The only difference is it's in video format and comes across 10x more strongly than a semi-anonymous faceless person posting a wall of text.

Plus the added use of 'Bludd' and 'Fam' and 'You get me' adds to the fucking top notch comedy.

I don't think neto is that bad at all, infact he just needs more games. Scezney comes with experience though, but surely there are other options out there? No?

Maybe Beppe is buying this fu*cker for Milan,cause they have problems with financial fair play this year,even Kessie they took on loan with mandatory obligation to buy after two years...its clear Donarumma wont sign for Milan,they are looking for a keeper they cannot afford right now,so maybe Beppster buying Szczney so Milan can loan him with obligation to buy,and in other direction sending Donarumma to sign with us :) Sounds impossible and crazy but maybe....I read that somewhere maybe month ago,probably bullsh*it but who knows
