Usmanov

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Can you imagine the bedwetting on RAWK if Usmanov sells.

I remember a few lads saying that on here when Moshiri came in with his 'billions.'

Usmanov has got a fair few billions more than Moshiri like.

I think it will happen.

I'm not ITK or even have any remote insight - that's just my opinion from trying to read between the lines.

When the twitter et al. ITK brigade we all know and love were telling us the 2 Americans deal to takeover EFC was complete, very suddenly and completely out the blue - Moshiri news broke on the 27th Feb. On the 27th Feb it was officially announced.

The sheer speed of it, and with Usmanov and Moshiris joint statement in my mind - on the 27th Feb - the same day the news broke of Moshiri last year I speculated;

I even thought maybe I inadvertently prompted all the rumour and speculation that followed but as time has gone on, the more realistic it seems. 49.9% element, the USM sponsorship - a recent approach to the site directly, Usmanov's bid as a final "Well, I tried...".

Nobody knows what Usmanov is thinking, but I reckon he gave up the ghost at Arsenal and Everton with Moshiri, would seem a perfect place for him to stick to fingers up to Arsenal's board and pile on Kroenke - their fans won't like it one bit if he makes a significant impact at Everton.

The esk says its a low ball offer

Yet strangely worth more per share than Usmanovs offer which esk asserted showed how serious he was still at Arsenal...

525m for a minority shareholders 30% = lowball offer
1000m for a majority shareholders 67% stake = not a lowball offer


Bending facts to suit argument

 

[efcjames]

Lol he's not coming here

 

[bluestevon]

In 2016 Kroenke bought 23 ordinary shares for £368,000 so that's £16000 per share.\

Usmanov has 18,695 shares in Arsenal.


Take that price and you get

£299,120,000


I'd say it's a fair price that he's been offered.

Price is considerably higher per share than the one Usmanov recently made to Kroenke, so yes your right

Especially given Usmanovs shares are without any influence whereas Korenkes come with a controlling stake

Moshiri has always just been the caretaker, having a quick sweep round with the brush before the Boss arrives.

Going to be a meltdown in here when he buys West Ham

Exactly my view.

Usmanovs shares come with the ability to take the company private and negate the need to publish accounts
Also allows Arsenal to be registered in Delaware along with Stans other sports businesses.
It also slows Stan take payments from the club which is something he tried a few years ago and was thwarted by other shareholders

I really really want that to happen

 

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

Given his principled stand against Kroenke I would be very surprised if he effectively delivered total ownership of Arsenal to the American. I feel this game has a long way to run yet.

He's going to come here, and in one swift move, exclude Arsenal and Spurs from the top 4 on a permanent basis, wiping millions off the price of Arsenal and hitting Kroneke right in the nuts.

This boss things dont happen to Everton anymore, never going to happen.....even if it does...some new rules will come in stopping blue teams spending money or sumert.

Very interesting.

"a recent approach to the site"

Wots that about Dan ?

 

[Neiler]

Hope he can play up front.

 

[bluestevon]

You've got to wonder if Usmanovs bid for Kroenkes shares (given that he's never going to sell), was a way of letting it known what he thinks his own shares are worth, without him stating that they're for sale?

*removes tinfoil hat*

I said at the time of that bid, that usmanov had inflated the price of his own shares massively by placing that valuation with his bid.

Smart business move.
