Jefferson's still got good vibes about this.

Has the daft fucker been listening to his old beach boys lp's?

I would not doubt Sanchez's professionalism. He wasn't born a millionaire, everything he says usually revolves around hard work and giving his best. His best chance of a move next season to a club he wants is by being world class this season.
Its hard to make transfers this summer, no club seems to need money, we probably are finding it too hard and costly to replace him.

You talk as if we're the only club that might look to keep a player looking to leave. Liverpool kept Suarez and Xabi Alonso, Dortmund kept Lewandowski, Southampton kept Schneiderlin, Leicester kept Mahrez, Man Utd kept Ronaldo & De Gea. All examples off the top of my head, and all got the head down once the season started. I remember Tevez being homesick on an annual basis and Yaya pining for Birthday Cakes as well.

Eh? How long for?

Suarez joined Barcelona a year later, Alonso joined Madrid a year later, Lewandowski joined Bayern, Schneiderlin joined United shortly after, Mahrez will probably move this summer and Ronaldo came in the press saying he was being treated as a slave to force through his move to Madrid. They were all under contract but the clubs knew they wanted out and bargained a season of loyalty for a promised transfer at the end of it.

Arsenal can't bargain this with Sanchez.

This saga needs to end, I hope his decision is made by end of this month

i personally think he will stay at arsenal......I don't think he will have much option.

Arsenal don't want to sell him....he cant force them to

They will go al out to make sure hey qualify for Champs league and then look to get him to change his mind based on that.

And none were in the last year of their contract when they first asked to move

Right, and the reason is market prize is likely to be even higher next year.
Whereas Alexis's prize for you will slump dramatically next summer.

Even if you have to pay say 70m eur for Lemar - as ASM is tired selling their stars - and Txiki would only offer 60m eur for Sanchez,
wouldn't even that make some sense given Lemar might cost 80m next year?

Well, it's speculation. Not easy to decide at all.
You lot will have to leave Thursday's cup early to go all in for top 4. Don't mess that up!

Pretty sure Lewandowski was.

If he stays with arsenal this season, why would he need to play at world class standard to move to a club he wants next season? Regardless of how well or badly he might play, he is a class player and as a free transfer would have all the top clubs after him.
