Think he's off to Chelsea mate probably to replace Hazzard who will likely be on his way to Real.The smart money could be on Sanchez. Arsenal would sell, he's got a year left, and letting him go to Chelsea would essentially make them favourites for the title next year. It would make sense.

When was the last time we signed a star player at the top of his game?

Tevez perhaps. We mainly seem to sign very expensive players, not star players at the top of their game. I am waiting for us to be like Real Madrid and be able to sign mainly galacticos.When was the last time we signed a star player at the top of his game?

I expect Jesus, Sterling and Sane aren't at the top of their games yet so I would have to say De Bruyne.

Yaya, Silva, Kun, Sane, De Bruyne, Sterling, Jesus.....

Why do we want to sign them at the top of their game?
I'd much rather buy a 19 year old like Jesus weeks before he explodes onto the world stage than someone for 5x the price at 24.
Was Kompany at the top of his game when he signed? Zabaleta? Silva? Aguero?
The answer is obviously no, so why on earth would it be seen as a flaw to sign players before they've reached their best?

If you think Silva at 24, Aguero at 22, Sterling at 19, Sané at 20 or Jesus at 19 were all at the top of their game then you don't watch the same sport as me.

De Bruyne was definitely top of his game when we signed him. I actually believe the injury in his first season with us and now Pep's tactic to play him deep has regressed his game if anything.
I think there's a few world class players in the squad who don't actually believe they're world class. It's a mentality issue.

Its much better to sign them when they're on the way up. But if we do have the big clear out and let players like Kompany and Zabaleta go, we're going to need a couple of 27/28 year olds in the mix.

I'm saying we have signed players with potential I.e sterling, de bruyne, Jesus and some with 1 or 2 good seasons I.e ottamendi but have wasted shed loads on the players like mangala, bonny , and others we now need to try for the elite players to improve a notch further.Its much better to sign them when they're on the way up.
