The worry is that they're in such a mess now that selling Sanchez could be the final straw for fans and they'll have a full-on mutiny on their hands. It could strengthen their resolve not to let him leave, regardless of the cost.
I don't think the impact would be that bad. They seem pretty much reserved that they need a rebuild and probably don't want someone who doesn't want to be there to begin with. I'm sure they would rather sell now to get a replacement or reinforce another position than let him walk away for nothing next summer.
Could all be sorted out and the club's waited until the international break. Got 3 days to go, look at what's happened in the last few hours.You have to question why he's not put a request in, or the fact that nice guy Pep doesn't want City to rock any boats and protect his image ?
Slap the dosh down City or regret it.
Arsenal fucked for the next 5_ 10years or longer hopefully .
Amended for you.
Two doubles for him before his legs go? I'll take that.Can't see this one happening with only 3 days left of the window. He will be pushing 30 next summer and even on a free we should swerve it. I'd say he has 2 top level seasons performance wise left in him.
