Negredo 13/14 stats
Played 49, scored 23, assists 8, YC 4, minutes played : 2,554
Sanchez 13/14 stats
Played 54, scored 21, assistc 17, YC 6, minutes played : 3,412
I know its not like for like as Sanchez is a winger and he does hold his own as a phenomenal explosive player. But goal scoring is not our problem. Besides I am not convinced of his tracking back, Milner does a decent job in protecting Zaba. I dont think Sanchez would be willing to play that team game. He wants to be one of the main men and usually floats in the box. We have that explosive player in Yaya who can take on 3-4 men on his own.
If assist from the wings is what makes Sanchez a wise addition to the team, then look no further than Milner, who played in 44 games at times as late sub, with an assist in 13/14 of 15. That's 2 assist shy of Sanchez with less games and no Messi or Neymar in front.
If Sanchez were to go to any top 10 club in the league, arsenal would be my choice because that is the least fit for Sanchez.
Very good post and details like this don't go unnoticed by those that decide on transfers, unlike the majority of us that merely see a player have a good summer tournament and assume he will be a world beater.
You need to look no further than Pborski, Brolin, Diouf and Amokachi (remember him!) to realise the errors of purchasing in haste often leads to regret at leisure!

Well someone's going to have to be moved on if Sanchez is to be signed.Celebritykiller said:I'd be definitely looking to shift players for funds Sanchez became available

Surely this is a team capable of going all the way in the champions league. Especially when you bear in mind the options on the bench ,
Sagna
Nasri
Milner
Navas
Dzeko
Beast
So who do wel sell to be able to buy Sanchez?
And Sanchez is all but covering up the fullback. Navas does! Sanchez never did that at Udinese, nor Barcelona and I have not seen him doing it for Chili these last few weeks. He's a great player, but let's try and not make him any bigger (not talking his bodylength).
And I very much doubt City is interested in him. They were, two years ago and with Mancini at the helm. But Mancini was always looking for individual class as where Txiki and Pellegrini look for players who suits the squad and system. Perfectly proven by last summer buys.

I haven't seen a single article linking us to him. I've only seen Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Juventus interested in him. There's always at least a few articles about a team being interested in someone if the team actually is interested.Damien10 said:How is it clear?TheKingOfTown said:I am shocked at the amount of people who are willing to sell Negredo already.

Oh, haven't seen that. Still feel it's unlikely, though. I think Arsenal is going to get him.Daz_Blue said:TheKingOfTown said:I haven't seen a single article linking us to him.
