Whether it be Morrata or Lukaku or that Inter dude I've never heard of.. they are talking fee's way in excess of realistic figures. You'd have thought the CL qualification would mean big investment to ensure they challenge the "elite". But they've gone for targets that are smack of ensuring PL top 4 rather than winning the league. Very strange.

They don't seem to have a plan, and Jose solely picks players to help park that bus of his. The existing players do well for their ability but you cannot get more out of them whereas our squad is the opposite. De Bruyne has a below par season and racked up 18 assists. Aguero was below par, and hit 20. Jesus, Gundogan and Kompany missed games through injury and Yaya was frozen out due to agent, and of course ageing full backs and Bravo. We've sorted the keeper out. We've enhanced the midfield. And no-one thinks we'll miss out on Mendy or Alves. We're set.

Beautiful isn't it? The goofballs over at Arsenal mania are requesting Sane, Sterling, or aguero in the deal and others still don't see Alexis leaving. Oh man...the melt down will be legendary.

Mate it's pure gold over there. There's one bellend in Particular called "Slartibartfast" (shit hitchhikers ref) who i'm keeping an eye on. He's Sooooo sure Sanchez won't be sold to us. You just know it's eating away at him. I like to imagine him sat there rocking back and forth with his fingers in his ears going "Na Na Na Na, i'm not listening. Sanchez is staying, Na Na Na... The meltdown over there will be better than the signing itself in some ways, Mwaahahahaha. Funny thing is, i'm not even all that arsed about getting Sanchez. I mean sure, great player, but he's no better than Aguero and what we already have is scary enough. He's defo the player we need least imo. Mendy and Alves seem nailed on and i don't see Walker being a hugely difficult transfer. All way more important than Sanchez.

"What if we make him stay and we win the league and then insist on selling him to City after they've sacked Guardiola?"... Tosker - Asrenal Mania

Just Beautiful :D

They were ready to lynch Wenger last year and all of a sudden now he is going to solely bring Mbappe, Lemar, Goretzka, and Mahrez this summer and they will win the league, they are as deluded as the dippers

It's a magical place. they keep banging on with the "City are no better than us" belief, they just can't accept that we're a better and more attractive proposition. I find myself genuinely laughing out loud every time i catch up with that thread. The calls for one of our players to be included is hilarious, be it Sane, Sterling or Aguero. Why would any of them want to join a team in the Europa league that can only hope for top 4 at best? And why exactly would we be willing to part with them? We don't sell our best players and they don't want out.

I think sanchez in our team makes us strong favourites for the league and i want him here but i'm not that bothered if he doesn't come, we have other areas more important and can still win the league without him, and speaking to friends they seem to be of the same opinion yet if he's forced to stay at Arsenal their fans will celebrate like they've just won the cup, think we'll respond like it's the end of the world and will somehow think they've got one over us by forcing him to stay, when in reality we simply move on and leave Arsenals best player deeply unhappy and ready to leave for free next summer

I would hope (expect) that any players that are "done" will be coming in from their holidays this weekend, signing their deals and will be at training on Monday. I would be disappointed if Alvez and Mendy weren't announced by Monday.
 
Our new policy of doing things discretely behind a curtain of silence is born out of the fiasco that prevailed during the Wolfsburg negotiations for Kevin.
Part of me wants just a little of that thread excitement and its true entertainment value (never laughed and been on edge so much in my life) but I think things are done differently now so we have a boring thread but massive expectations with nothing to feed off.

2009 Real Madrid:
C.Ronaldo
Kaka
Xabi Alonso
Benzema
Albiol
Arbeloa
Negredo

I don't think that will be topped any time soon but if we get all of our targets it will be the best in English history for sure.
