Alexis Sanchez

[DontLookBackInAnger]

That sounds plausible. What may have worked for Barcelona doesn't necessarily work in the competitive Premier league.

Its one of those things we rolled the dice and didn't get the result we wanted.

 

[come-on-barney]

As you rightly point out this isn't the first time we have over-estimated the "pep-factor"

Does anyone have any actual quotes where he says that?

 

[zandvoort blue]

We offered £60 million in the summer and it was agreed. The Rags are now offering the equivalent of £50 million (transfer fee, signing on fee, agent`s fee) and a king`s ransom in wages when he`s a free agent in the summer. Madness and desperation.

 

[Roachy]

Maybe if he goes to utd he can buy a replica PL medal with his money. It's not Citys fault if he wants to go there for more money. Bollocks to him if he does.

 

[Barcon]

Nothing has blown up in anyone's face other than the arsenal supporters.

 

[City Man]

It is not the £60 million. United are not giving Arsenal that as far as we know.

They have offered a vast sum a week and money to his agent that we will not pay as it would create issues with our structure and might unrest our other players.

We are putting the team ahead of one player.

United are desperate for one player to save their team.

It is that simple and also quite revealing.

Let's see how many media stories reflect that rather than Jose beats Pep etc etc

The ones that do will be the serious analysts of football and the others United love in merchants.

This. Plus a message to the rest that just because we've got money doesn't mean you can screw us over.

 

[ADegenerate]

Never wanted him anyway.

I understand that City don't want to get held ransom by agents but why are you going to the dance if you're just going to sit on the wall?

Totally agree we not a bunch of clowns.
Well not anymore

If the rumours are true (and it's a big if) that Arsenal have lined up Aubameyang to replace Sanchez who will then be sold to the scum, why don't we just sign Aubameyang and leave both the tarquins and the rags up shit creek? Is Sanchez any better than Aubameyang?

 

[manimanc]

Media lockout for me this coming week. Rags cut the gap to 12 points and sign Sanchez. Dippers love-in all week....

Man up mate. Get your city scarf round your neck, puff that chest out and hold your head up high. The press have waited for this for months, stand back and laugh at the hysteria from all concerned.
Take it all mate, embrace it and see how they will all be basking in the dippers cup final celebrations.
Then look at the table and have a little chuckle to yourself
Fuck em.
