I beg to differ
I don't think we have played a blinder in this saga at all. Essentially, our inability to close the deal has allowed our closest rivals to move in a grab the player from under our noses. If the reports that Sanchez and his agent demanded more money after having agreed a deal are true, then i can understand why the club has taken the decision it has. However, this isn't the first time this season that we have seemingly had an agreement with a player only for it to fall through at the last moment. The Alves fiasco resulted in us over spending on a bang average full back who isn't worthy of lacing the boots of the player we originally wanted.
Hopefully we can grab another forward player in January because the glaring weakness in our squad is up front. Aguero has been a shadow of his former self this season and Jesus wouldn't even be in the side if he wasn't Brazilian.
67 goals for not good enough!Not at all.
I just think we are still short up front both in numbers and experience.
You can differ but you're wrongI beg to differ
How has he done against Aguero in the other 4 or 5 seasons? just curious.He is an outstanding talent in the PL.
He scored 4 more goals than Aguero last season.
He was only just 29 in December, (7 months younger than Aguero).
He wont be available on a free because he wants to leave and Arsenal want to sell him.
I agree the money is getting ridiculous but it is a market, if we don't compete for the best players when they become available at cheap transfer fees, like in this case with Sanchez, other clubs will not hesitate.
IMO we will regret not securing him.

No issue with us walking away, however we need somebody in this window. There's no alternative to Sane on the left and it leaves us a little bit one sided when Sane either isn't available or is having a poor game which you're going to get from time to time from a 22 year old.
Well it was reported in at least March 2017 so you’re hardly Mystic Meg.
