I'd buy himWith hype like his United will get at least £30m for him in the summer. I think he'll end up at Everton or Spurs.
United 1.83. City 1.91 skybet

Manchester City have assured Pep Guardiola he will have the funds to sign a top class striker - if he misses out Alexis Sanchez.
The Etihad hierarchy are refusing to meet Arsenal’s £35m valuation for the Chilean, as well as the demands of his agent.
They are so determined not to back down that they are prepared to let Sanchez head to bitter rivals Manchester United this month instead.
But Guardiola - who City insiders say is in complete agreement with their stance - has been told money will be made available in summer for him to strengthen what is already the deadliest strike force in the Premier League.
And that will be significantly more than would be required to land Sanchez this month.
Atletico Madrid striker - and United target - Antoine Griezmann is one player admired by Guardiola, who was interested in signing the Frenchman last season.
Warm your feet lad, it's cold outside.Somethings happening, I can feel it!!
I've been saying that all morningSome people must think there is still something in this, a lot of money gone on City in the last 30 mins.
How much to the last penny I need to knowSome people must think there is still something in this, a lot of money gone on City in the last 30 mins.
Its quite incredible from Uniteds standpoint that they are willing to pay £400k pw to a player who quite clearly wants to join us.
It looks like we have seen Sanchez's willingness to discuss terms with United, as a sign that he is not 100% committed to us and we have walked away. United have decided that they are not bothered that he is not 100% committed to them and instead have offered him an unbelievable package and they will get the player.
Part of me thinks we have done the correct thing, standing up to agents etc. The other part of me thinks, I would bloody love him at City.
Who's driving this narrative? The press? Have we officially stated we've walked away from it?
I ask because it looks horrific if we've gone back in over the top.
It's like a patomine oh no he isn't, oh yes he isIt's dead he is a rag

It's not quite that simple, yes he might end up with a winners medal, but there will always be an asterisk next to it as we are comfortably double figures clear. The only way this is a long term story is if he comes and we blow the lead, then he is the guy who screwed up the chemistry(The Rodney Marsh if you will).He has chosen money over a Premiership winners medal, fuck the greedy ****.
The deals not done mate until he signs for someoneRags 5/6
City 10/11
Little bit of money to be made on backing him to the rags, as the deal is done.
I was affected by the dramatics of it all. Ok, pretty bad.It doesn't look great but I'd hardly call it horrific. Not sure I'm arsed one way or the other if we've gone back in with improved terms. Don't get me wrong, I can understand the club's stance with not paying a player way more than the next highest earners but when it comes to principles and whatnot, principles in football are in short supply. Regarding Sanchez, I'll back whatever stance the club decides on.
