We are in 2017, not 2012. There is no genuine reason for Arsenal to sell.

aaaaaaand I've been barred from posting in this thread. Simply for stating Arsenal wouldn't sell Alexis, which is what they have been briefing for months. Incredible

If you've been barred how are you posting?
 
Think the timing is good if we've made a bid. We still have to get through the first rejected bid, Sanchez handing in a transfer request, the second rejected bid, Wenger saying that he's 'making a stand', Arsenal signing a relatively unknown 'next big thing' as a replacement, then acceptance of the third and final bid because the money was "crazy" and a prudent business couldn't turn it down, unlike crazy City who are ruining football. Tedious.

The timing is great. I bet Arsene is in bed and we think we can get it done before the morning when he'll find out reading the papers tucking into his weetabix.
 
If any truth in this bid £60 mill would be as far as I would go ffs he only has a year left,and Arsenal will only drag it out for more money £60mill is more than enough,I was all for Sanchez coming in still am to an extent but it's not the be all if we don't get him rather see us spend that amount on a good cb..

"Arsenals firm intentions are to keep Sanchez and they have been all summer. Barring an exceptional bid that would be too good to turn down"

End is near imo.
 
Yep. So 70-75 should do it then. Figured as much. Fine with me. Would have preferred to pay the 140m£ for Mbappe but that's alright.
 
IBH doing tolmie things. Excited but confused. I really think he's the perfect fit for us, as I said in the previous match thread we need a player who can play with those clever chips and diagonal runs against these parked buses. That he works so hard is perfect but I think we need our strikers to learn how to play this creative game. Almost all of them are very straightforward in their own way. Combining is what will take us to the next level. As it stands, they almost all require KDB or DS to do something for them

Defo a 'don't want to, but will do if we really have to' comment.

Could just as easily given a 'fuck off and that's final' kind of comment.

Sanchez clearly doesn't want to be there and wants to be here.

All this 'injured' bollocks.

All this posturing.

That quote boots the door open.

The money just needs sorting now.
 
I'd love him here,not that arsed if he don't come though,think we have enough fire power to invade a small country.
£50...£60...£70 million...not arsed either,I'll still wake up,go to work,have a pint and go to the game.
Let the saddo's worry about what gets spent.
 
No way we start at £60mil, however this smells of a leak in order to start the media off.

I reckon there will be another leak in next couple of days about an official £40mil bid going in, with addons, and then the bullsiht gets played out in the media until we settle on £60mil with a few addons potentially taking it up to £70/75mil.

Mark my words.

;-)

Agreed, can't see is wading in with 60m.

I agree I think £60m is an unbelievable offer for a player aged 29 in the final year of his contract. Where do these figures come from?
 
Some of you are quite silly. Taking wenger's word for them not selling. What is he supposed to say, considering how sensitive of a situation it is. Of course he's going to deny deny deny. They need to make it seem like they did absolutely everything they could. The huge contract offer last second... this has been on for months. Was always just a matter of time

Don't care what anyone says, City would be incredibly stupid to pay anything above £30m. If we do end up paying anything like the figures quoted, then we deserve all the criticism coming our way.
