Yesterday he pretty much said that Sanchez wants City cause of Pep....and that it doesn't matter what Utd do.
He has turned down PSG and Bayern who were both offering more money than we are in the summer.
Pep is our Ace in the pack
Basically what TH said yesterday....dont know if he has been on today.
Sanchez's actions have so far suggested he wants to sign for Pep and no one else – unfortunately for us, two things factor into this happeing...
1. Arsenal and Wenger's incompetence - or refusal - in finding a replacement, which they say they need to do if they let Sanchez go... they don't look like they're making much effort, and I can see Wenger stubornly keeping him, running his contract out!
2. The Rags – if to be believed, they are making an insane bid for Alexis, given the length his contract has left, supposedly bidding more for us and giving them Mhikitaryan – this could very well turn Arsenal's heads, as they get more cash and seemingly get the replacement they want – forgetting, of course that Mhikitaryan is shite at the moment and wouldn't adequately fill Sanchez's vacant spot in the team.
Also should be noted that nothing is being said of the supposed bid, that if it were us, they would label as a disgusting amount!
So it's a waiting game – if Sanchez truly wants to sign for us, and is willing to forego a huge bonus as the papers were saying, then he should really come out and brush off the Rag claims... I still feel he wants City and the Rags are pissing in the wind, but we all know how fickle football is!
