Alexis Sanchez - "City would have won the Champions League if I'd have signed."

[NZBlue]

It was the great Ralph Milne’s number when they signed him. Iconic

He could have been just as shit for us. But he also could have been phenomenal. Who knows.

Not many players play under pep and dont actually improve

UnFuckinBelievable! So the reputed £600k including bonuses per week from Old Toilet had fuck all to do with it then? :-/

I'm still pissed we didn't get Van Persie, Hazard, Isco or Sanchez, but to be fair we didn't do too badly without them.

Their loss... \0/

What utter bollocks. No wonder people think footballers are thick when they come out with utter clichéd soundbites like that. He made history alright as one of the most expensive flops ever at the stadium of shite. As they've had quite a few lately that's some achievement.

I read an article a few years back that he actually asked his agent after his 1st training session with the rags if it was not to late to back out of the deal.
He said he knew he'd made the wrong choice even that quickly.
Either way he was piss poor for them and i laughed at his and their demise

The first Chilean to wear 7 at the rags? That’s ‘making history?’. Who the fuck cares about that or would even know that

 

[Corky]

The deal was agreed but he chose Barca.

Then the mugs at City let him do the same thing again twice.

Thrice played us to get more wages at the club he wanted, got to give him a lot of credit for that.

 

[lust overlord]

He was done when he left Arsenal, injuries had taken their toll.

We dodged a huge and expensive bullet.

We certainly did dodge a bullet.
He was ran into the ground by both Arsenal and his national side.

Pep would,maybe,have managed him better and differently, but we will never know.

 

[Dribble]

"I didn't want to leave arsenal for money, I wanted to make history and win trophies, so instead of going to a Manchester City side that won everything in sight and made history, I went to the rags to win fuck all and be the highest paid player in PL history".

That's the long & tall of it....

I know we wanted both Alexis and Mahrez.

We did end up getting Mahrez before the 2018-19 season.

But if this info is correct.. who was the player that was going the other way for Alexis??

Any ITK's know?

Messi
