Arsenal will bid again after 2 proposals rejected in the recent weeks. They are not giving up at this stage.

…both City and Arsenal had plans to bid for Rice this week.

And this the bidding war that West Ham was waiting to happen has begun.

I guess it was inevitable. The worrying part is that they wouldn't bid if there was no interest from the player's side

Well, time to focus on our backup plan. I don’t really see him picking us over City.

Why do you say that? He's repeatedly stated he wants to come to Arsenal.

Part of it is me preparing for the worst. The rational reasoning is did he say that after City showed interest - because City are currently the best team in Europe. And Rice probably looks at this as changing jobs. Our perspective as fans is different from a footballer’s. City looks like the more rewarding job right now surely.

All of are sitting here today waiting for any kind of response from Arsenal like the princess bride meme “well… I’m waiting”.

I know it's still early in the window, but I was hoping we'd lock this one down sooner to avoid a City swoop :/
