Alexis Sanchez

No way that Norbert Colon character who runs Arsenal will sanction that.

Yeah normally I'd agree but this is Arsenal we're talking about. This is a club that as far as I'm concerned probably makes its decisions by rolling a 20-sided die, or with a paper fortune teller if they're feeling boisterous. Nothing they do on a business level is either consistent or logical.

Maybe a Clarkie but how do we fall back on the players you mentioned

It's Ono mate, only ever comes on to gloat/moan when things have gone a bit pete tong. Cant think why, must have his reasons i suppose ;-)

So confident were Arsenal of Sanchez-Lemar happening Gazidis called Soriano this morning to say as much. Intriguing...

Bullshit, all Arsenal were interested was stringing us along, to make it so we had no other option right to the death, to their own detriment.

Don't forget that letter they wrote a few years ago, they sold us players when they thought we were no threat, then realised we were.

I wouldn't deal with these c**ts again under any circumstances.

The idea that Arsenal fans are gloating is bloody ridiculous.

We know our place and it's no longer in the top 6 but at least we haven't taken down our trousers and let you lot feck us up the proverbial...

Believe me, on social media some of them are. It should have never come to that though is my point. Don't get me wrong I get why you'd be buzzing to keep hold of a top player but it's a short term risk papering over massive cracks. Arsenal should have got the Oxlade-Chamberlain and Sanchez situations sorted out much sooner and replaced them with problem positions, centre half, centre mid, and a replacement winger but even then it's the ownership i'd be really concerned about. It's bang out of order that in a window where £1.4bn was spent in the Premier League that Arsenal have made profit, whilst your owner spends £1bn on an NFL Stadium.

So I get the 15minutes of joy but as of tomorrow the Arsenal fans should be asking serious questions.

Interesting take in the mail....

How does that work (signs for us in Jan)?

Just like it would now.. except the fee would be even less

 

[warpig]

I wonder if we might see a Spanish side come in for him tomorrow? Sanchez might decide that although he wanted City, going somewhere/anywhere is better than staying at Arsenal for another 12 months, especially after the way they have treated him today.

Girona anyone?

 

[Kompany is King]

Maybe this is the time for Pep to coach our attackers

 

[Neville Kneville]

Well apparently and then we made a seemingly fake bid for Lemar, which French sources said was BS without trying to sign anyone else.

Well Sanchez will be overjoyed they phoned City & conned both us & him into thinking he would be moving.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Top tune. Great band.

Dead right mate.

'George Best' Album has had a pasting recently at Stoned Rose Towers.

 

[jaiguruKun]

Girona???

I like your style.

 

[Jack Hackett]

Must be a grim time for you gooners pal, didn't think things could get much worse for arsenal.

Actually, it's likely to get worse.

I think we are in a Liverpool like decline after 1990

But hey, we admired you guys for sticking with City when things went bad before Sheik Mansour and we will do the same...

 

[BringBackSwales]

Tell me, given we are so crap, why are you so exercised by us? Just asking...

Because so many arrogant tarquins like you have been coming in here mouthing off. Never said crap but top 4 looks like a long way off, don't you think? If ever a set of fans deserved to suffer a period of mediocrity....,.

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

Girona???

Ha!

 

[argyle]

Good look with that Wenger

if he was so crestfallen he'd put a transfer request in.

 

[blue by birth]

You have to be pretty dim to sign Bony

Or keep a player who desperately wants out and lose £60 million in the process...

 

[kevin horlocks wand]

You have to be pretty dim to sign Bony

Agreed and touché.

All the best for the season.

But Liverpool were a decent side before 1990?

Our crowds increased the shitter we got, think yours are really going to plummet big time

What you seem to fail to grasp is that the deal made sense FOR ARSENAL. And there not doing the deal is bad for you.

You should have sold him weeks ago and replaced with a top player who actually wants to play for you.

It's neither here or there to us whether we signed him or not. Which is why we refused to pay you stupid money or even more stupid, give you Sterling.

But we are just fine. It's you lot who's lost here. Getting one over on us, completely missed the point.
