Alexis Sanchez

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Cheers tolmie, good to hear on a Monday morning. Not just that we want him and progress looks good, but also the cold hard fact that we want to win things this year Though, does Sanchez want to move now or wait? He's the deciding factor here, which is how it should be I suppose.

One question if you can indulge, Pep's comments recently seem very much to allude to us wanting a player or two but not needing them, but if as you say we won't wait for Sanchez then are we seeking attacking reinforcements this window regardless of Sanchez's stance?

Pep still needs be all things to all people at this stage.

He won't be updating his present players what could be coming in, so more trying to keep sweet those who are nervously worried about losing their places.

Cheers, much appreciated.

Yes Chile play on the 31st of August (Thursday) but players must report to training on Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Arsenal play Liverpool on Sunday and travel there on Saturday I believe. No way Sanchez flies to Chile which is a long trip after Sunday and then goes back to England and again to Chile, it's not going to happen. He will sort his future out before leaving for Chile.

I imagine we will know by Friday or Saturday morning at the latest if he will join or not:

Agree

Makes sense that. No need for him to give away anything whatsoever

Are Arsenal in training today? or is it a day off. Sanchez saying he misses football on his Instagram story, always watch us later :D

Who's lead you to believe this?

Sorry,

Well, the same guy who told me we had Mendys agent in Manchester 3/4 weeks prior to his official signing, is convinced it's an open subject of discussion about the place
Look at it this way, we dont have long to wait. The market is shut next week and there will be a bombshell one way or another, there is no chance this just limps towards the deadline and he sits quietly as it happens

For me and what I've been told, this is much more advanced in the background than it may seem... think of that one way glass in the new tunnel..

I suppose its possible he could have his medical in Chile.

Have we not got a team on full time flight radar watch?

Surely someone must know.......
