Alexis Sanchez

[cheekybids]

Can we jyst put crazy offers in to fuck all parties about, he's not coming in so we could at least disrupt everyone.

Sanchez is on some 130k at Arse, that about right??
He could have moved to sunny Munich, but asked for 400k!!, which was a slap in Rummenigge's face.
Now he slaps the frogs asking for 500k...

What is Sergio on? 220k?
Sanchez wouldn't get much more at City I suppose. So no panics there.

Now what if Sanchez wants to work only with Pep?
He just won't sign for PSG.
Could he or his agent talk about a possible agreement with City for next summer to put more pressure on Arsenal?
His risk would be staying there, no CL, permanent media talk about the situation. Would Arsenal want that?

This one could go to the last day of the window with us still being involved.
City might end up without an additional goal scorer and use the options we have right now, which might be enough as well.

In the meantime sign all we need for our defence.

God. I'd resigned myself to this not happening and now you're all giving me hope.

To add to it: if arsenal are willing to sell to PSG it shows that they accept the logic of selling him instead of losing him on a free. In that case, if he does decline Paris, then that puts City back in pole position.

Heard anything on this @Ric ???

Whilst we are not being reported as actively looking at other attacking options, there may still be legs in this, particularly if the £500k/week demand is true as that is simply telling psg to do one

My thoughts trying to price himself out?

Really lol.... link to where he 'agreed personal terms with us' and don't embarrass yourself quoting self proclaimed itks on here... complete nonsense.

Has anyone really thought that agreeing to terms with Sanchez would the the stumbling block it was for Bayern and possibly PSG? Will always be Wenger. I'm not getting that drawn into it since I don't think Arsenal will sell to us.

If not Alexis hope we sign a big forward to use as a plan B weapon instead. e.g. Llorente

We won't.

to be honest there is really single one natural goal scorer in our team - Aguero. With all attacking creativity and quality the others get, they are in no way goalscorers. Maybe KDB if he would play nearer the goal, could be the one and I'm not sure about Bernard, but Silva, Sterling and Sane are not solution for scoring more goals.

I'm not sure we have enough funds to add quality goal scorer this summer but that is definitely an area we must add to next summer. And that has to be a quality and depending on Aguero's status and quality this year, maybe not only one player.

Not poo-pooing your post but, if they and Kun averaged +3 or +4 between them, that would make a significant impact. Is that unrealistic? Combine that with leaking a few less goals and.....hey presto! ;)
