He may be off.

Even if he's not, he's been the most professional and loyal player we've had at the Arsenal for quite a while. Great warm personality. Lovely smile. And of course best of all, a solid fucking defender.

Rock Sagna. Thank you.

Remember that time when his brother died just before his birthday? 2008 I think it was. Just before that classic 2nd leg Champion's League game vs AC Milan. We won 0-2 at the San Siro! Whole team was on point that night, but Sagna, despite his loss, still put in a defensive master class performance. Remember that?! Was on the PFA team of the year that season as well. This man always put Arsenal first. For all y'all talking shit about not respecting him if he leaves for City or wherever, fuck off. If anyone deserves his payday, it's this cat. Defended like his life depended on it all game, every game. I'm one of the critics of the attacking side of his game, but when you can defend like this guy can, and has, on a consistent basis for close to a decade, then all your critics, flobaba included, can fuck right off too!

Hope the club does right by him and gives him what he wants. If not, fare thee well Bac.

Rock Sagna. Thank you.

"That is magnificent. That is absolutely stunning..."

Hopefully we give him a trophy to leave with. Also hope he moves abroad.

Funny that despite his solidity and sometimes his heroics in defence I'll remember him most for scoring that header that launched our comeback in that pivotal game against Spurs.
We were on our knees in that game, and prior to that game, all the bs about powershifts and us losing our way.
He was integral to stopping that particular rot and changing our fortunes around.

Cheers Bac 🙂
Hope whoever replaces him will be at the minimum at least as loyal and reliable.

Nice one, Klaus. Keep the videos gifs and pictures coming.

Best Arsenal rightback I've seen.

I know it's stupid, but still secretly hoping for a u-turn.

Was bugging me today: we haven't even seen a lot of his CB act. But we just know he's going to be a beast for who ever gets him, and we're going to be thinking: should have signed him even if speed was going. The man is a lion - physically, and at heart.

He can go wherever he wants, I'll always be grateful.

I said it many times before: to me he's the best RB we ever had.

Even though he's pretty much earned the right to do whatever the fudge he wants at this point, it would definitely hurt to see him play for another club in the PL

Best RB I've seen play for us. Just shades it above Dixon. Colossus of a defender.

It will be sad to see him play for another team.

Love Sagna to bits. What a warrior.

I can't wait to see him lift that FA Cup next week. There isn't a player in the squad who deserves it as much as he does.

Love his goal against Spurs too - you could tell he just said "fuck, this shit....not against Tottenham". 😃

Best I could find - goal deserves better!

Don't think thats up for debate. Its pretty obvious.

I can only echo what everyone has said, he has been a great servant of the club and a model professional through a very dark era.
This is the way to leave, with dignity and none circus acts of some other clowns, it remains for us to see the exact facts of this matter, what was he offered to stay? Where does he go? When we know there will be more to say on this.

He's the perfect guy for teams like Pool and Citeh that are in danger of flouting FFP rules to throw money at. Would be sad to see him elsewhere in league.

Who has been a more consistent and likable servant in the barren years?

Diaby's been very loyal and consistent.

Consistent - Wenger, but likable.....:\

Been a solid player for, a shame he has decided to leave. Guy has given us the best years of his career and always been a reliable player for us.

Think we made him a decent enough offer but there will be clubs out there more desperate and tbh we need to look beyond him now anyway.

That remains to be seen.

I will put my appreciation on hold. If he moves to another PL club, it'll probably be put on hold forever.
