Following Chelski’s hijacking of the Mudryk signing, Arteta called an emergency meeting with Edu.
My mate’s nan’s cat-sitter’s, brother-in-law overheard the conversation and sent me the transcript.
MA: “Ed, have you heard, Chelski have dismantled their scouting department and are now just bidding £20m extra on anyone we bid on”
Edu: “ FFS, I thought they were up to something. They nicked Felix, now Mudryk, what are we gonna do?”
MA: “Well, I’ve got a new thought process, let’s just not bloody tell anyone who we are interested in. Don’t tell the ITKs. Don’t leak it to the press. Don’t tell the cleaner. No-one. It’s pretty simple really”
Edu: “Hey, that could be an approach worth trying. Let’s see how it plays out”
1 week later Mikel reconvenes the meeting.
MA: “Ed, I bloody well told you it would work. We got Trossard and Kiwior in and Boehly didn’t even get a sniff.”
“Now, got get me Moussa Diaby and I’ll stop bothering you”
Edu (sheepishly): “Yes boss”
