Wow wtf. It could either be some people with real information or could just be a load of giddy rags throwing their money on.

Tbf we were 1/4 a couple of days ago and look how quickly it’s changed. Bookies go off how much people are putting on the bet. Keep the faith..
 
Those 4/1 odds are very tempting. Not sure what has changed if anything to materially influence the situation.
 
Although I'm not convinced Sanchez is an ideal signing in terms of his age and potential disruption he could cause to our squad, I do believe that if we had promised Sanchez a move last summer for £60m then we shouldn't really get too hung up on paying £30+m for him now.

This "we can get him for nothing in summer" is all hypothetical and is simply not what we are faced with now.

We need to realise that if he signs, he will in a blink of an eye become a £65-70m asset, and if indeed he doesn't fit in then there will be plenty of takers.
 
Not looking good with such a big swing in the odds. 4-1 is just too generous for the bookies not to have got wind of something.
 
Presumably any possible deal with the rags, like any possible deal with us, depends on arsenal getting in a replacement first?

That hasn’t happened so nothing will be happening imminently
 
The same happened in the Summer when a large number of bets on Sanchez to Bayern caused them to become clear favourites for a day.
 
If we weren’t in the ascendancy for the league, I would be far more disappointed to learn that we are missing out on Sanchez. Thankfully, however, we are. Hopefully we will sign a quality centre back, two midfielders and a striker in the summer.
 
If Sanchez was that much of a 'guarantee' Arsenal wouldn't be sitting in sixth playing Europa League football. He's a good player and we should sign him but he guarantees fuck all.

He carried that side last season. He assisted and scored a shed load.

Sanchez in City's attacking line up is the icing on the cake.
 
Can people stop posting the betting odds as if they have any bearing on a transfer happening.
 
most rags I know are that confident im sure they are booking the tattoo as we speak.all saying he wants to come to a big club blah blah I would piss myself if he comes to us.
 
I know it's not my money, but I'm also not stupid, and I prefer the club I support not to be too.

Paying whatever the seller wants when they have NO LEVERAGE is FUCKING STUPID.

We aren't paying exactly what Arsenal want, but if it does come down to Sanchez leaving Arsenal in Jan no matter what and Sanchez has made it clear he will join City if we match what Utd's offer or risk letting him join Utd, I would rather just pay the money have another world class player on our hands instead of letting a rival club close the gap.
