If it was an average player I’d say yeah walk away but players of Alexis’s quality don’t come on the market every window. Whether he’s got 6 months or 6 years left on his contract is irrelevant, he’s easily an 80 million pound player in today’s market.losing out based on 10 million would suck...certainly if freaking united got him

I guess Sanchez has kept his head down in this long hard months waiting to be 're born. He has kept his word never moaned or asked for more money he owes Arsenal nothing.Winter Is Coming" is the motto of House Stark, one of the Great Houses of Westeros. The meaning behind these words is one of warning and constant vigilance. The Starks, being the lords of the North, strive to always be prepared for the coming of winter, which hits their lands the hardest.
?
Arsenal now need to let him go it will hit them hard but they will get some reward.
Very true though.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.

They're a selling club and were less of rivals to the rags then than they are now, they finished 11/12 18 points off the top 2.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.

I think it’s more to do with his agents demands.
His agent reportedly wants his fee’s plus a £25m signing on bonus for Sanchez as well as the transfer fee to Arsenal.
If United have indeed offered £25m + Mkhitarian then this deal will be nearly a £100m one before Sanchez’ reported £300k a week wages get included.

We're being monumentally stupid. What a fucking joke.
You should put that post in a mirror. Ridiculous.

That's right. He needs to fall in line with our normal wages structure. If he is out to get mega-mega bucks and doesn't care about the titles the Rags is the place to go. Not sure why he would not just sing a new Arsenal contract though in that case.If the quoted figures are accurate, then absolutely this transfer should not happen and he can sign for someone else

Final prediction: done next week, 25 + 5 million.

I really want Alexis so i'm disappointed we're not just getting it done, as seems to be the cry from most fans.
However,
I have to say, City's stance is absolutely the right one. Perhaps they've had assurances Alexis won't go to United in any circumstances, if that's the case, why get into a bidding war and pay and extra £15m?
If he'd rather go to United than stay at Arsenal for potentially 6 months, this will move quickly now and he'll go there for £35m. I'd be gutted, but I can't say we've played it wrong.
The only thing that doesn't quite add up is we were quite prepared to pay double this money only 5 months ago. Perhaps it's become a business decision now and you can't argue with the stance.

We can't go mad here, we need the extra money for Jonny Evans!

I cannot believe for 1 second that we havent known (and agreed)Sanchez and his agents fees/contractual term since the summer.
This is ALL about agreeing a fee with the jokers at Arsenal who are desperately trying to save face after they let their most valuable asset depreciate to nothing.
Might run to very last day or even (gulp) the summer.
I am behind City’s stance on this, Arsenal went back on their word in the summer, and shouldnt be allowed to get what they want.

Or City know there is no offer from United and their recent interest is a fabrication created by Arsenal. That people really think United offered 25m plus the Armenian is hilarious.Last throw of the dice from us.

We were in for RVP with the rags and they chose the rags. I think their allegiance with UEFA and their red friends will dictate how Arsenal play this.They're a selling club and were less of rivals to the rags then than they are now, they finished 11/12 18 points off the top 2.
Ultimately only Sanchez can decides how it ends

We need him this season far less than we did 5 months ago.I really want Alexis so i'm disappointed we're not just getting it done, as seems to be the cry from most fans.
