So all the talk on here of why Pep wanted him so bad and how we needed him to achieve our lofty aims this season were not shared by the club or indeed Pep. Sánchez was no more relevant to us than JE say.

Its nothing but talk on here from fans with opinions that mean fuck all and that's the reality mate.

Again out current position and lead suggest we dont and wont need him this season at least and come the summer, who knows which players we will target?

...haven’t spent much time in the Transfer forum this or the last window, have ye?

Not the point though is it, I don't think it's wise to be offering a 29 year old 400k a week when we're in the middle of negotiating new contracts with KdB and Sane, what signal is that putting out to future deals and contracts?

yeah, everyone equating it to Bony, Mangala etc. are forgetting Pep's in charge and will have his eyes on other targets too. Besides, I'm really enjoying the "snap up the future star of every potential WC quarter-finalist" which has been our recent policy. Besides, I'd be really interested to see the accounting tricks used by the rags to get round their own PL FFP.

Not at all worth the wages quoted. We are in the middle of extending sane Kbd etc. We do not pay them kind of wages anymore. Let the rags make a mess of there club, while we get players that want to come for footballing reasons. Not a chance we are going to pay them and upset the apple cart for a 29 years old

Delaney reporting that rags are "favourites according to 'sources'. But apparently we haven't given up yet.

Here's me thinking it meant "fabulous"

I think he'll talk to both clubs today before making a final decision. Makes sense.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

No, the 'plan' was for City to add him to the list of players we have 'planned' on signing.

There is no Utd 'plan' for Sanchez. It's a reaction to being shit. Well, the 'plan' as with Ibra & Lukaku, is to throw him in & hope it works out.

And they only got Lukaku because Chelsea wouldn’t pay the agent fee. There is a pattern of desparation emerging here.

 

[Danamy]

Especially with regards to KDB who unlike Sanchez is guaranteed to be a starter

Bingo

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

I think he is probably making his mind up as we speak: united are just waiting for the nod.

I hope he tells them to fuck off.

Do you know where it stands at the moment or are you as helpless as the rest of us :-)

 

[Neville Kneville]

We did distance ourselves a few days ago, when we said we wouldn't pay the agent demands.

Not really us pulling out though is it ?

If Sanchez turns down Utd, Arsenal will sell him to us. And nobody knows if that's for 20 mil, that's just another bullshit 'fact' which will only be a 'fact' if & when it happens.

This is all on Sanchez.

Think this is one Man Utd won't believe is done until it is over the line. As recently as late last week, people inside club felt Sanchez to City was more or less certain. City felt player would prefer to join them. Interesting to see if Pep Guardiola makes a final push.

 

[cunnyfunt]

I don’t think it’s done and dusted yet, nobody in the press seem to be sticking their neck and saying it’s a done deal.

Sanchez has not travelled to Bournemouth today as Manchester United become increasingly confident of beating City to his signature, reports @OliverKayTimes #AFC #MUFC #MCFC

Arsene Wenger says resolution on Alexis Sanchez future is imminent: “Don’t read too much in it because even I don’t know really what way it will go."

 

[ak93city]

No, if they accepted our bid, they would then accept Utd matching it & allow them to talk to Sanchez as well, & offer him twice the wages. Then it's upto him.

It's still upto him now. He can tell Utd to fuck off & sign for City. If he doesn't, it's because he wants more money.

Last big contract of his career pretty much. I won't blame him one bit should he choose money.

Almost every single person on this forum would've made a similar choice in favor of finances in their respective careers, especially if they knew they aren't going to be earning much to maintain their current lifestyle ever again in a few years.

Plans change quickly and United reacted to their circumstances. Was Ederson part of the plan when we signed Bravo? Danilo when we were after Alves? Of course not. That is football and I am not sure why its being made out as a desperate act when pretty much every club does the same thing. He is a great player who, should improve them or us and thats why both managers want him.
