With that attitude he might as well stay with that lot. Sanchez singed a contract and Arsenal can hold him to it. He might wanna go somewhere else but Arsenal decides. And I doubt Sanchez will act like you want him to with a WC coming up.

Nolito and kelechi got most of their game time when sane was unsettled or injured and before we signed gabby jesus,. And as for navas he got a fair few starts at right back. If we had signed dani alves last summer and Jesus joined then instead of January those three would have got alot less game time which b Silva is more the capable of covering. We really don't need Sanchez we have aguero, Jesus, sterling, sane, Silva and maybe Roberts fighting for 3 spots.
Silva is not a forward, Roberts won't be in the squad.
We have 4 players for 3 positions as is, it's not enough. Hence why we are trying to sign Sanchez. Not because Pep thinks it'll be a right laugh pissing off Wenger or Arsenal FanTV, but because he needs him.

Will be nice if we get him but not arsed if we don't. If we were thin up front i would indeed be cacking it right now but it is hard to be to arsed when you see our general attack. It would be a 'very nice thing' if he comes but if he stays at the gunners fair enough.
It is always nice to laugh at Arsenal though so just for that i want him here. It would take all of 2 seconds of a chant laughing at them to see their fans go apeshit, just stick the words 'feeder club' in it and you have a guaranteed gif worthy crowd reaction :-D

Would love Sanchez to sign but if Arsenal start pissing about then I would call their bluff. I can see Arsenal holding out until 31 August and then cave in rather than lose £50 mil and Sanchez leaving for nowt the next year. I would let them hang onto an unhappy player and let him join the following year for nothing.

Think he is a luxury would be great to have him here but I really don't think we need him! I believe he is on the decline and to take minutes from sterling, gabby Jesus or sane who will only improve year after year would be criminal. Where would you play b Silva? He his played as a wide mid/ winger most of his career why would we sign him to play him elsewhere?
If all our forwards stay fit all season and avoid suspensions then arguably we don't need him. But now that Kelechi appears to be out of the picture we would only need a couple of injuries such as the one Jesus picked up and we'd be stretched. Better to err on the side of caution.

Some bizarre views on here suggesting we don't need Sanchez. There is no 'perfect world' scenario where our current forwards will be available and on form for the entire season. If he wants us and is attainable then signing him is a no-brainer.

Been played further forward, for the record I'm a big fan of him I believe we need full backs or a cm more then Sanchez.
But that's the same in most of our positions if we lose aguero and sane for example we have Jesus, Silva and sterling starting that's great depth and I'm worried how happy our young players are when they are fighting for a spot on the bench.
He's on the decline? He's 28, just had his most prolific season ever, 30 goals and 20 assists. He created or scored 2/3rds of Arsenal's goals last season.
If he's on the decline, it's in the same way Ronaldo has been on 'the decline' since about 2013.
Sterling and Sané were so overplayed last season that we had to rest Sterling, and Sané was so tired he refused the ball in the FA Cup final, he just didn't have the energy to keep running with it. Then we benched him and had to play Clichy instead, at wingback! It was so shite Pep had to bring him on at half time.
So I see your opinion about it being criminal to take time away from the kids and say this instead - it would be criminal to overplay them and run them into the ground again, expecting them to play at their best for 50-60 full games a season. It also isn't great to put the goal demands on such young kids. Pep said the biggest problem last season was scoring - so is it fair to now demand 15-20 league goals each from Sterling, Sané and Jesus, and have our success or failure rest on them making a massive jump up in scoring?

I get were you are coming from and Sanchez is a very talented player, but I'm just so excited about the potential we have in our front three if they realise it we will dominate the league for a number of years don't want to rock the boat unnecessarily. If he comes brilliant he will improve our starting 11 but if not I'm ok with that. We have a very strong attack without him. Gk which we have addressed and full backs in my opinion cost us the trophies last year we simply got punished for every mistake.
Rules are rules.
