The funny thing with this deal is how the Rag fans are in denial about the wages, everyone that I have spoken to is saying that they are only playing him £300k not the £480k quoted.
But when you ask them where they get this figure from they just respond with "there is no way we are paying him that much". So in spite of numerous journalist all reporting this £14 million a year net figure they are just ignoring it and coming up with their own narrative.
I'm sure they are not bothered. They're effectively swapping Mkhitaryans wage for sanchez, not paying a fee and just covering the agents fees, and it probably guarantees them Champions League football. However in future seasons it is going to have an impact. Short term gain, long term pain.The funny thing with this deal is how the Rag fans are in denial about the wages, everyone that I have spoken to is saying that they are only playing him £300k not the £480k quoted.

Every player who signs for them is briefed to say that in their signing interview.Just hope the impact he has isnt as quick as RVP when he went there, even though only a one season wonder. Stand by for the rag propaganda, Sanchez has always regarded them as the best team in the world biggest, club best manager and that when the Rags came calling even having said he would play for us there was no choice even though the wages are less.
