Not doubting his ability or how he would benefit us.. But it'd be a short term fix, say 2-3 years. It's just not a transfer that's ever got me excited in all honesty, not sure why but it hasn't. If we got him great, if not 'meh'.
For me we need to be looking at younger talent, players who are the next big thing. Think Luiz, Jesus, Sané etc these are the types we should be headhunting (those we have obviously but as an example). So I'm just not convinced we're as all over Sanchez as has been made out.
I've said it a few times but I'm convinced we're all out for Mbappé & Sanchez is a bonus if it happens. I'm also starting to think the openness of the Sanchez move & knowing PSG are likely to target our targets, is a very shroud move by City! Get PSG going all out on our 'main target' while really we deal with Monaco for the younger (19year old) up & coming superstar who will be around for 5+ years in a City shirt. It also keeps Arsenal busy trying to keep the player, both these things give us a clear run at other targets.
Some see flapping & lack of movement but I'm starting to see some very clever smoke & mirrors... Just hope I'm right.
Sanchez's agent is a pain the arse and it's absolutely true that Paris want him both him and Neymar. What happens next is anyone's guess. I don't think anyone expected PSG to be this aggressive. City will have to decide how they want to play this next because we could find ourselves in a situation where for all the assurances Pep has been given by the player, the finances just become unworkable because of what PSG are offering.
Not done by any stretch of the imagination but I'm beginning to feel a bit anxious.
Signing Sanchez will not garentee us winning the champions league!, obviously will give us a better chance for sure but u can't say signing him will win us the European cup. For me winning the premier league should be our priority and I don't think we need him that much for that nor in Europe. 50 million for him on his last year at his age is to much, doubt we would get that for Sergio even now.
It is a bit gutting losing out on Sanchez, however I still believe Pep will have something up his sleeve.
Plenty of good young players available, Foden for a start.
Or Sanchez stating he will only move to usWhat I think is forgotten by a lot of people on here is that PSG's interest represents a huge problem for us. If they can get agreement with Sanchez as with have allegedly done then they'll get him as Arsenal will sell to them without any issue.
The only way we get Sanchez is by being the only team at the table and Arsenal getting twitchy over a £50m set for a Bosman next summer.
Or Sanchez stating he will only move to us
Not if the reports are true.
It has been claimed that Monaco have slapped a hefty €190m asking price on Mbappe..... Wow
