Alexis Sanchez

[AwayDay]

He's already told the club he wants to leave.
It looks like they said , sure, next summer.
Wenger even thinks it's great business, which is bewildering, but he's the one with the accountancy degree.

Wenger comments yesterday were utterly baffling. I think Alzheimer's is setting in.

The stages of mourning:

1) denial (and isolation)
2) anger
3) bargaining
4) depression
5) acceptance

Thats why I think this transfer might be different, Wengers philosophical views have been replaced by a military mind. He even said at the end of the season that it's the players who made him miss out on CL this season so it's their job to stay and get him back in it!
He's on the war path.

You'd think he would have done it already if he was going to.

Players seem to leave this as a last resort. This transfer request maybe media speculation, but by the end of this week we'll probably know whether the transfer is on or not.

Start of the window we had 3 scenarios:-

1. He extends his Arsenal contract
2. Summer Transfer
3. Lets his Arsenal deal wind down and moves on a free

We're now down to options 2 and 3. 3 is the worst scenario for Arsenal because it will be a focus for unrest all season. How is Sanchez going to demand more from players around him if he's leaving? It will change the dynamic of the dressing room. It will just be a slow drip of bad rumours throughout the season, culminating in news of which club he's joining. Something to avoid at all costs.

We finished 5th last season , we don't have much to lose by taking a few risks.
If we sell Sanchez we won't get CL, that's accepting defeat.

Trying to make a positive out of it. There is an element of players having to play for their contract. But Arsenal are now shrouded with uncertainty. The manager has a 2 year contract and the main man, doesn't want to stay. Not a good position to be in.

Option 2 is ok if it's to PSG, not to you. He doesn't want PSG, so that really only leaves option 3, which is the one Wenger appears to have chosen, in the hope that this season goes really well.
