reading an article this morning mentioning that the gooners want £15million for jenkinson in the summer if we want him just how realistic are they being? of course nobody will pay that for him maybe £7million at a push but what they want we and I very much doubt any other club will pay that ridiculous amount...of course we all now its just an opening gambit to see what they really want for him but if slav says no then who will we get to play in that position...I have heard sam byrams name mentioned by people but having not seen him play and clearly having no top flight experience would the club risk money on him? or will we stick with Tomkins and make him our new RB and buy another centre half? or will it be some Croatian player we are yet to no about...decisions decisions decisions....yes next summer is a long way off but in footy you have to keep looking
Definitely an area we need to
Definitely an area we need to look at. Tomkins might want to try to make the position his own, what with us being well off as far as centre-halves are concerned, and with young Burke wowing the fans at Bradford, not to mention Reece Oxford coming through! Can't see us paying anything like what the greedy gooners want for Jenks. Might be Tomkins best chance of a regular place.
Tomkins is our best center
Tomkins is our best center back

He is good going forward,
He is good going forward, fairly solid at the back bar a couple of silly challenges recently, comfortable on the ball, good distribution, excellent crossing ability, plus chips in with the odd goal here and there. Baring in mind he's also English which drives his value up, I'd be over the moon if we paid anything up to £10 million for him to make him permanent hammer. He's a perfect fit for us
Even anything up to £10 mill
Even anything up to £10 mill is a lot for Jenks, in my opinion. Yes, he had a good season last year, yes, he's been sloppy a few times this season, ok he's scored a couple of goals, but there has to be someone out there better value for money at around £5-6 mill. Who, I'm not sure, but Solly at Charlton could be worth a go at about £2.5 mill and who knows, he may be a Cresswell in the making !!
Sincerely
Sincerely at the moment I see no one better than him. Rather than spend money on an unknown player, I think he they will agree with goonners for a reasonable price
better the devil you no
is the case....yes he signed a 5 year deal with the gooners before coming on loan but he knows they just want the money and he's not French enough for them! so probably £8million not a bad deal specially with the new tv money rolling in next year.
