Alexis Sanchez

Yeah, and the 'I know but I can't tell comment'. He'll go a little further with it I'm sure. Transfer request? Not so sure.
I've said all along that he shouldn't put a transfer request in and Wenger's comments don't suggest he needs to. If the offer we make is good enough, they'll relay it to Sanchez and his agent. Arsenal only have to accept the offer, Sanchez is doing everything he needs to.

However, for people like Wenger who enjoy games of brinkmanship it's useful at this stage to draw back a little. He's softened his stance today, which so far has belied the lack of bargaining power they have. I'd up the bid slowly and wouldn't go a penny over the fee we paid for De Bruyne. If that isn't good enough, good for them, he stays there a while longer.
 
we still may fall short with them

Of course, it doesn't guarantee success but it would give us the best possible chance of winning both the league and Champions League this year in my opinion (if other key members of the squad stay fit for the majority of the season).
 
The limit for signings closes on August 31; If Alexis plays against Bournemouth will have to wait at the end of the season ...
But I think we will have good news soon.
