Alexis Sanchez

Apparently Inter Milan 's new Chinese owners want to make Sanchez 'the poster boy for their new era' whatever that means!
Surely the kind of package required to land him would require their oriental proprietors to breach the FFP regs that stopped us from landing him before, the same regs which have now been relaxed to allow them to do exactly what we were stopped from doing.
Could we be punished again by losing out on Sanchez by the reverse application of the same - but changed- bent rules?
If he only wants to come to us and play for Pep - no problem, but if Chinese backed Inter come up with a mind-boggling package, who knows?
Somebody put my mind at rest!!

He aint going there but the new revised ffp says new owners can spend as much as they want as long as they have a plan of eventually breaking even in the next 3/4 years.
 
Our line up will look something like this (in my opinion) If we buy Walker and Mendy.

AGUERO
SANE SANCHEZ
B.SILVA KBD
GUNDAGON
MENDY STONES KOMPANY WALKER
EDERSON

I'm getting on a bit, carrying a little too much weight, don't get as much exercise as I should and as a result I sometimes take one of the little blue pills to help with my 'performance'. But after looking at that line up ... I'm boasting an erection like a 19 year old and have just told my wife to get home ASAP :O

Surely he'd stay at Arsenal if Inter was the only other option?

No Silva = no hardon
 
DT ( Arsenal Fan TV guy ) says Sanchez isn't coming to City so we should all save ourselves from embarrassment here and take heed and lock this thread.

Well the window doesn't shut until September so let's just see how things pan out. Keep it open as I'm sure there's a few more swings and roundabouts ahead. I think it's 50/50 whether he comes so I'm nervously excited/pessimistic this window. If he comes fantastic, if he doesn't then move on to the next target. Simples.
 
You have to be optimistic Sanchez is on his way when the media start reporting massive wage demands from him and his agent (400k a week +) Making him out to be a mercenary and only after money. IMO Arsenal have briefed the press about this to demonise him and get fans to turn against him and make his departure more palatable. I would also think it would suit them getting the deal done now so fans accept it get used to it before the new season starts, If they leave it till after the season starts no doubt the fans would kick right off and be on Wengers back from the off.

Embarrassment ?? Nowt embarrassing about wanting another world class player in our ranks...What is embarrassing is Arsenal waiting to see who they have in the Europa league next season...
Tarquin , Farquar & Dimbleby are well and truly vext- one would have to assume.

It would be better for both clubs to sort it out. Arsenal must know now that he is not going to sign an extended contract. If they are going to sell him, it would probably make sense to just get it done and move on. Dragging it out to make life awkward for us, also makes lie awkward for them. Presumably they want to spend in the transfer market and as you say get their fans heads around it all - and players. I doubt they'd want the opening weeks of the season dominated by is he staying or is he going

It does seem a bit more likely at the moment but every Summer we seem to have a transfer saga and they are full of ups and downs.

I wasn't being serious mate but I'll leave it there to save face in case Sanchez doesn't sign anyway. I've already envisioned Sanchez playing with City so I'll be gutted if he doesn't sign.
 
Chelsea match United's bit for Lukaku.

It's great to know they've given up on any thoughts off Sanchez, and know like all other clubs that if he is to be sold by Arsenal he 'only wants to come to City'.

Remember that chant.

"City, City, nobody knows your name." ;-)

Not arsed either way, if he comes he comes if he doesn't he doesn't, sooner have Aubameyang anyway
 
Still looking promising this it seems. World class player who knows Pep and fits into his sytem perfectly who'd be the difference on numerous occasions. Even if we were to only get 3 top class years out of him, Sane will be 24 then, Sterling 25, Gabriel Jesus 23 and Bernardo Silva if he plays wider 25. All coming of age if not already and bang at it. Sign him up
 
To think if we get Sanchez for around £50m, added to the Silva fee and it's what United or Chelsea are paying for Lukaku.

UEFA/G14 changed FFP after our fine to now say any NEW owners who can show they have the money & a costed business plan can have a period of accelerated growth outside of FFP, The fuckin bent bastards..

when you think about like that it is crazy, the amount of ability you can get for the Lukaku price if you do smart business is crazy

I was shocked we got bernardo quite cheap. Also so quickly as well. Especially with how much Mendy is dragging
