He made the bid public to try and put some pressure on Kroenke from the terraces, which worked to a point, but he already knew the answer was no. Kroenke coming out with a definitive "I'm not selling" leaves him with a choice of either trying again with a massively over valued bid, or accepting the status quo.

Or divesting.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Last role of the dice and a prime chance to put the squeeze on Kronke. With so much fan discontent after the self entitled, perennial CL last 16 bottlers will not be there for the first time in 2 generations.

Usmanov can either sit on his arsenal % with no influence whatsoever.
Or he could get on board the toffeetrain, Destination: World Domination.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Isn't Kroenke's wife the heir to Walmart and worth about £8bn?

Combined they have more than Usmanov.

 

[a bell maul]

Kroenke must infuriate the likes of Troopz, DT and Claude. I suppose Ty likes him though

 

[Azza]

What a surprise ... Not.


All Kroenke has to do is a spend a few £m in the summer and the Arsenal prawn sandwich brigade won't have a bad word to say about him.

 

[Blue_Berry]

Kronke has put out a statement saying that Arsenal are never going to be for sale.

Come to us, Usmanov, we'll love you!

Be careful what you wish for mate...

This

I think Usmanov knew he had absolutely no chance with his bid and just wanted to rock the boat before football shuts for a few months

Fans are fickle, forgotten about after they sign some Peruvian for a couple of squillion in the summer

This is what's happening though. What level of investment we get could change by what happens at Arsenal. Usmanov is definitely financing With Moshiri though.

Are you ITK about this mate?

 

[Manx Blue]

I'm sure this paves the way for Usmanov to very cleverly offload his shares via a well devised & pre-orchestrated maneuver with business associates or family.

He'll be balls deep into Everton by Christmas.

 

[Azza]

Would Kroenke ever hand over his own money to Usmanov which in turn could, maybe, possibly, allow him to invest is us?

I don't think he'd give Usmanov that pleasure, he'll probably need to shift his shares elsewhere.

 

[davids]

Would any Usmanov investment change anything while Bill and Elstone are still involved in the club?
