Alexis Sanchez

[PistonBlue]

If, as we're led to believe, he wants a us and Pep then it will happen.
If he's prepared to play for PEG and the rags shitty park the bus football, then fuck him he's not right for us.
As Ric says, we are in pretty good shape so no sleep will be lost over it.

I know betting is very irrelevant but currently united are 10/11 and city are 15/8

Cheers! That's ANOTHER £5 going on us to get him then

What i´m trying to say is that Mourinho knows that the only way to win the Guardiola Mourinho game is extenuating (it´s the word correct, right??) him.
This is going to happen with all the potential signings ( Fred, Weigl.all), contract renegotiations, etc.
The gentleman approach would not be enough. ( Conte put him on his place). We will need to do the same off the pitch too.

Juve kill the competition the last 2 seasons buying Pjanic and Higuain ( not only on the pitch)
Bayern do the same to Dortmund. PSG got Mbappe from Monaco.

When i say play dirty it´s the GAZUMP. He will try to do that just to create instability

I think he's proved that he is unstable enough as it is .

Yesterday he pretty much said that Sanchez wants City cause of Pep....and that it doesn't matter what Utd do.

He has turned down PSG and Bayern who were both offering more money than we are in the summer.

Pep is our Ace in the pack

Basically what TH said yesterday....dont know if he has been on today.

Sanchez's actions have so far suggested he wants to sign for Pep and no one else – unfortunately for us, two things factor into this happeing...

1. Arsenal and Wenger's incompetence - or refusal - in finding a replacement, which they say they need to do if they let Sanchez go... they don't look like they're making much effort, and I can see Wenger stubornly keeping him, running his contract out!

2. The Rags – if to be believed, they are making an insane bid for Alexis, given the length his contract has left, supposedly bidding more for us and giving them Mhikitaryan – this could very well turn Arsenal's heads, as they get more cash and seemingly get the replacement they want – forgetting, of course that Mhikitaryan is shite at the moment and wouldn't adequately fill Sanchez's vacant spot in the team.
Also should be noted that nothing is being said of the supposed bid, that if it were us, they would label as a disgusting amount!

So it's a waiting game – if Sanchez truly wants to sign for us, and is willing to forego a huge bonus as the papers were saying, then he should really come out and brush off the Rag claims... I still feel he wants City and the Rags are pissing in the wind, but we all know how fickle football is!

Still really hope we get him of course, but you look at the current squad and the obvious team spirit we’ve got and realise we’re good either way:

There is a touch of Tommy Devito about him now you mention it.

Maybe his fluffer

WTF you talking about. Your opening gambit was all about gangsters and whores and having to be very careful. You made it sound like Txiki was about to be assassinated.

Now Peg is going to extenuate Pep. Or did you mean exterminate. Hahaha.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Look at the team spirit of our players this season, I have honestly never seen it better in 50 years. Not sure I would want to jeopardise that for someone who has a tendency to sulk when he doesn’t get played every week, or get the ball exactly where he wants it, as good as he is

 

[M18CTID]

Right gonna go old school, leaving this thread and just gonna check teletext.

Don’t do it to yourself. I did that one evening in 1993 when I got home from work fully expecting Geoff Thomas to have signed for us, only to find out that he’d gone to Wolves instead. Even now, I’m not totally over it.

No Yaya

 

[I'm no cynic but...]

Txiki must have been guided by Marvin's posts!

Bunch of money grabbing mercenaries.

 

[San Tropez]

Why are people here talking as though City are refusing to pay just £35mil when the reality of the situation is:

1) Arsenal want £35m
2) Sanchez rumoured to want £15m signing on fee
3) Agent wants £5m
4) Then a weekly salary of £400k

 

[chedinho]

Boringly, -inho is just a suffix that means little. So for example, Ronaldinho means little Ronald (His actual name is Ronaldo). So it's either a really boring name like Dave, or a really boring name like Dave with an -inho on the end haha.

If you're curious, I believe -ao is the opposite. So Luisao is big Lewis.

I haven't studied Portuguese in ages so apologies if I'm wrong.

so ****ao and coutinho are just big and little cnut ;)

They say a picture tells a thousand words. That tells me we have great human beings playing and managing us.

What a job the bald ginger kit man has by the way. Been here a good few years now since he was very young.

The gentleman

For Mourinho is the same. He´s not corrupt but Antero were on the same " play dirty" mode.
Whores and gangsters happen in Porto. They got points taken. It´s no joke! Actually Portugal is a soap opera on that type of thing, lolololol. That´s the extreme.

If that "way of conducting business" was ok, in this case Mourinho will going to be on every transfer, every contrat renegotiation, with messages in the press and all of that.
Carefull because Mourinho like Antero play dirty and like in the "Ashley Cole" situation they will do everything to put the game in their confort zone (low blows allowed).
Do you think that Pogba ( injuries quote) came from the bhuddist approach by Mourinho?
He thinks this is a war. That´s all he knows. That´s all he does.
He is good in press conferences, defensive approach and developing a "war mentality".

The first 2 equate to City’s match day income for a season. Don’t buy him and let us all in for free, I say!
