Usmanov

[Bilko]

Honestly now. If you had his kind of money and had no control over the club you invested in. Would you not go and buy your own club outright. Could buy 80%+ of clubs in UK. Why only buy into part ownership ?

This is just a small part of a long game.. no coincidence with timings and leaks etc.

Who mate? Can you name them? And please don't quote WRD as your source.

I've had meetings with people in the mayors office plus the police chief a few months back. Got it from few of them people. People didn't believe me on here so not mentioned anything since.

The people I dealt with, all seemed convinced that Usmanov had something to do with the new ground. One person said, he will definitely be at Everton but it could take up to 5 years.

I disagree on your last point, he'd have still entered that deal, it's an excellent deal.

In their open letter to arsenal, Usmanov and moshiri laid out that they would have funded the Emirates build by debt and non-dividend equity mate, so anyone thinking he'd have built it out his own pocket is wrong, and for debt the financing model we are using is the best one possible. And if R and W holdings had been in charge at the time you realise it would have been moshiri charged with sorting out the financing model used.

Just my opinion lads but i disagree. I know where you are coming from though. I think the dynamic of the Emirates deal was a lot different, they took on a lot of short term debt which really impacted the club from a footballing perspective and a revenue perspective. Its hard to know what RWH would have done if they were in control of the club, loaning the club money could have been an option and then turning the loan to equity, thats popcorning at its best as it would never happen at Arsenal given the share situation and is kind of like their bid yesterday, not ever goign to happen, its more about pressure on Kronke. I dont think that can be taken seriously. If he was to follow the same model at Everton, Mosh would purchase the remaining shares, have a rights issue or Usmanov funds the ground and converts the debt to equity. There would be no need for LCC at all.

Just my opinion. I think he and Moishiri are working collectively though doubling their exposure in PL clubs in the last 18 months as such their personal stakes in terms of value have risesen dramatically. I dont see Usmanov directly coming on board at Everton though, or putting his own chips on the table with us.

Respectfully mate, once again that's just personal opinion.

Yeah whatever. The Greek lid living in Australia obviously knows more than everyone else about this....

As is your opinion that Usmanov coming here 100% can't happen. It's unlikely but unless you know his innermost intentions and thoughts then you can't say that.

Well of course it is.

That's the idea of a forum, no?

Does the Police Chief know who we want to buy this summer as well??

 

[4737carlin]

For me this him testing the water one last time, if he fails he will want out altogether I reckon.
He needs to accept he is not wanted at Arsenal, once he has its only a matter of time before he sells up and comes home to Everton to be loved by his new family and friends

Hi mate, in your role as a teacher what capacity were you meeting the police chief in?

That's my point mate. There are no ITKs when it comes to Usmanov. WRD and such are giving opinions based on no substance.

 

[Jean]

He'll get his Arsenal in the end by paying way overs.
Let's move on lads.

Agree

 

[ToffeeTim]

Exactly. So don't say it's impossible.

My opinion is its not likely but outside chance. But I've no idea whatsoever.

 

[kithnou]

Well of course it is.

Yes. However, our discussion is about Usmanov and "ITKs".... of which I am arguing there aren't any.
