All well and good him wanting to keep Silva but he's the reason Silva got sacked man !

£25 millions Gbamin
£22 millions Gomes
£27 millions Kean
£34 millions Iwobi
£8 millions Delph
Loan fee for Sidibe

Sold prime Gana for just £29 millions
Lost Zouma back to Chelsea

That summer window killed Silva yet Marcel doesn't talk about that does he...
You’re missing the point I think.
Too much interference with the footballing side of the club by people who lacked the knowledge to make those decisions has irrevocably damaged us.

Oh aye, cause he knew Gbamin was about to get the degree of injury he got 🙄 which lots of players would struggle to come back to their form beforehand.

Gomes was a fan favourite during that loan so that was an understandable transfer. Kean hasn’t been too bad at Juve and we are getting our money back plus a bit extra. Iwobi is 100% a Moshiri/Usmanov signing.

Delph was poor for us but was a gamble and 8m isn’t all that much in todays game. And Sidibie was a loan, that didn’t quite pay off but he is far from the worst player we have had.

He lost Zouma to Chelsea? What you on man? It was a loan deal, he was always going back to them, they had a transfer ban and he played significantly for them after going back.

Gana wanted to go. It weakened our hand. But we maybe should have got an extra 10m for him.
 

Tim, what is his way out mate? I'm wracking my brain for one but can't come near to finding the answer. Edit, especially if we do go down.
Sell the club and cut his losses. Things could get even worse under his leadership and hopefully he recognises he is not capable of building a successful football club.

If we go down there will be interested parties but Moshiri will have to accept the value of the club is no longer what it was.

I guess he has to decide how much of a loss he'd be prepared to take, at present it'd be heavy, if we went down it'd be worse.
The Stadium no matter how fabulous it is has come at the wrong time I now think, it complicates things massively.

How many were brands and how many were Moshiri? The Iwobi one definitely was questionable as a lot of money moved around that week through Arsenal.
 

In my opinion there is no reason to cast doubt on anything that Brands infers in his comments. He will be on an NDA and yes he did not cover himself in glory, but his reputation in Holland appears to be intact so what would his motivation. during his tenure here, in the stand at the Derby he inferred back then it wasn’t all on the players. Many people assumed he was referring to Benitez, but I always thought he was referring to more than one individual.
 
Does he have the ability to sell the club but keep hold of BMD?
Good question. I suspect it's whether being built by the club (in the legal sense) or a separate financial vehicle associated with the club.

As the owner, I'd surmise that he could sell the club in parts, with the stadium being a separate entity. Yet, for a potential owner that would be far less appealing.
