Alexis Sanchez

[KP242]

We're being monumentally stupid. What a fucking joke.

This is brilliant negotiating by the guys up top.

 

[OhSoGroovy]

This is so dumb

Not like you to be negative. Go take a look at the League table and cheer up.

 

[BringBackSwales]

It’s disappointing that you respond to an obvious joke with a subtle insult.

What has happened to this forum.

If you are seriously offended by that then you definitely need to get out more. Shit now you will be offended again

This is brilliant negotiating by the guys up top.

Not if he signs for them. Pay them £25 million or whatever it takes.

 

[Woody135]

If the quoted figures are accurate, then absolutely this transfer should not happen and he can sign for someone else

If, hypothetically, he did end up going to United would it still be seen as brilliant negotiating?

That was tongue-in-cheek, mate.

Everyone is taking everything so seriously on this thread!

 

[lee_wsm]

Also are arsenal forgetting any foreign club can give a ore contract now

 

[aguero93:20]

None of them were Arsenals star man at the time.

Stretching the truth a bit there lad, Nasri was a star player at Arsenal. They had Fabregas and RVP then true, much as they have Özil and Lacazette now.

 

[KDBtojesus]

losing out based on 10 million would suck...certainly if freaking united got him

 

[Healdplace]

We're being monumentally stupid. What a fucking joke.

We are not. We are having principles and remembering this is not a one player team.

If you bring in someone on 300 million a week all the others have to get more. Or you destabilise a great team.

This is United's game. Even if they don't get him and we pay silly money they hope it messes up our team unity.

How is not doing that stupid?

The media will play this as a great victory for United.

Anyone with sense will see who did the right thing here.

And it is STILL up to Sanchez. He gets to chose and on that reveal whether football or money mattered most.

 

[hcblue95]

We're 2/1 to sign him in January and United are around evens now. Not looking good but I trust the club on this one and I see it as a win either way because a part of me would like a younger signing but part of me knows Sanchez would improve us right now.

 

[cadds92]

Last throw of the dice from us.

Basically saying to Sanchez if you want us you may have to stay at Arsenal until the summer because we are not paying more than £20m now.

If he goes to United we will know it was all about money.

Mad saying that I know.

I'm offended by this post.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Has there been any inclination from the rags side that this is true? At all?

 

[KP242]

I don’t think he will but yes I would. We find out what’s truly important to Alexis either way. He chooses titles and success while playing under Pep who he obviously thinks highly of or more money. I wouldn’t want a guy who chooses money over success on the team anyway.

Ok I will give you Nasri. My point is when United were desperate to land RVP to secure the title even though they were still competing with United they did the deal with them. I don't trust them.

 

[Mr. Wednesday]

The thing for me is why would he move to the rags right now rather than wait till summer? The league is City's and we are one of the favourites for the CL. There is incentive for joining City right now rather than waiting.

But why join any other team in England right now instead of summer when he can demand pretty much anything?

He doesn't want to disrespect Arsenal and their fans by asking for a transfer, can't be that bad staying then. He either stays till summer or joins City. Would be amazed to see anything else. Most likely is stay as Arsenal are incompetent.

 

[blueparrot]

We,pay what we think we should, we arent in a position were we need to pay over the odds. If he cant wait 4 months he cant wait not our problem .
