Him and his agent need to make it clear to vinegar face that he wont actually be much use to them "on the sporting side" if they force him to stay this season

Not we have made a decision and he is staying statements of the pre season tour interviews

We need to put a bid in sharpish. If we leave no time for Arsenal to sort a replacement, should they relent, they will have to keep Sanchez and let his contract run down. It will also leave us time to bring an alternative in.

OK well put it this way then, what indications are there that he has changed his position?

I'm not Wenger - so can only speculate about what he means but the introduction of the word "compromise" - is probably significant. That's just my view however and may be wide of the mark and you could be correct and nothing has changed.

This all day long. Sigurdsson who just signed for Everton would have been a great alternative option for us. Big, strong, skilful and scores goals. Our attack is too much of the same, all small forwards, sometimes especially in the premier league you need height and power to unlock and unsettle defences.

Gylfi Sigurdsson has played in this country for 5 years, how can you think he's a striker? He's an attacking midfielder and always plays behind a striker. He's not the solution to any problem we have.

am I just being thick here or..!? Just asking,what odds does it make to Sanchez if he puts a request in ..i mean what's the reason for him not doing so,if he's told Wenger he wants to go already (if to be believed) ..then what odds does it make to make it public? He's gonna get shit from their fans either way isn't he ..don't get what's going on here,unless it's all part of a well laid plan between city/Pep/Sanchez ..fk knows

Eh?

The last thing this team needs is another creative/attacking midfielder!

Not only that, he isn't as good as the ones we already have.

Still won't make him a striker!

I agree. This was always going to drag on a bit but we are now reaching the stage where if it isn't sorted soon then Arsenal will keep him even though I suspect they would rather sell and have the money to reinvest.
