Alexis Sanchez

[Ricardo Vinicius]

It is quite possible to close the window and the City is left without Sanchez and Aubameyang. For one reason: Txiki is very weak!

Not sure whether we are holding out to make a bid right at the end of the window and if so can't imagine that being the best way to go about such a major transfer IMO, why not make a bid NOW times running out and at least if the first bid gets knocked back we've got time and ammunition to make another because if it's left too long it may back fire on us no matter how unsettled Alexis is at Arsenal

A very surprise signing by City on its way

Bearing in mind we were hearing back in May that Sanchez was Pep's no 1 target this all appears to be a bit slipshod.

I get it that Arsenal want to sell abroad but when he made it clear he didn't want PSG or Bayern surely it should have been quite straightforward. And if Wenger was playing hardball a transfer request should have been put in.

What negotiating are you aware off?

It's all rumour.....

 

[Worzel Gummidge#9]

For all we know it might be going on in the background and I hope it is but just unsettling knowing time is running out on this one, hope I'm wrong would love to see him here, be awesome no doubt about it.

What about Raz down the middle, cheeky bid for Ox to cover wide, wing back and centre and help with HG. Then move for someone other than Evans such as VVD ?

I was half thinking about Ox as a home grown option until I say the Liverpool game and it reminded me not to be so silly. Not even for free.

I really hope Liverpool going after Lemar doesn't get in the way of us getting Sanchez. If Wenger wants to go after Mahrez instead, he better start getting the ball rolling.
