Sanchez would walk straight into our team mate, he is exactly what we have been lacking at times last season.
On current form I agree mate, but he's had some pretty ordinary games for Barca and some good ones . Maybe he suffered being in and out of the team at Barca, and not being the main man. Maybe he can be more prominent at City, if we get him. I'd love to see his pace and skill in our side. He works 'ard too. He should have come straight here from Udinese!
I don't think he really managed to hold a slot down in the Barca team, and the team is built around Messi and since Sanchez has been there he has had some pretty tough competition on that right side.
I think he is built for the premier league and would fit straight into our system. Especially with the signing of Fernando, if we are to go with a midfield 3 in certain games, a front 3 of Silva/Aguero/Sanchez or even Silva/Dzeko/Sanchez would be pretty frightening. Obviously you have got Nasri, Jovetic and Navas as well but im just using the above as an example.
He seems to have an incredible work ethic and his pace on the break would be immense. Also with his style of play being
similar to Aguero's in terms of pace, power and low centre of gravity, it would mean that we could afford to rest Aguero if he was in need of it.
I love Negredo but it just doesn't make sense having two relatively big strikers when most of our game is built around quick passing and trying to get in behind parked buses, and if Negredo does want to leave then Sanchez would be a perfect replacement.
