Alexis Sanchez

[117 M34]

All these top clubs who are full of integrity? I'd sack that off straight away

And the next time we had someone in the last year of their deal, other teams would be getting out players to do it and we would lose out millions

If we couldn't convince them to stay.

Another step in the right direction IMO. Arsenal are resigned to losing him, but are trying to ship him outside the league first. Further, by delaying City's advances, they hope we'll get itchy and move on to plan B or Sanchez himself will have a change of heart and go elsewhere.

If player and club stay the course, he'll be ours.



To be fair, Cardenas has been saying exactly that for months.

Sanchez wants City, Arsenal/Wenger prefer to sell him to Bayern.

The problem for them is that Bayern, by their own admission, aren't in a position to pay what Sanchez is looking for.

Wenger is trying to appease the Gooners fans, which as we know from past experience with dealing with them,is usually just hot hair.
If Sanchez seriously wants us,he has to push this through.

The overlords at arsenal miss out on £50m? Not a fucking chance.

You can't be serious !

There is no way Arsenal will let him run down his contract. £50m is a huge amount of money.

I think you'll be surprised. Where can Arsenal sign a player with his quality for even double that amount. Arsenal may accept a £50m bid from Bayern, but I have my doubts that they'd accept a £50m bid from us. I can see the fee pushing £60m - £70m. Any less and I see Wenger offering Sanchez an enormous salary (one that he would find difficult to refuse) to extend his contract, along with the promise of spending big in the transfer window to improve the squad.

Arsenal are a club intent on maintaining the books and having a healthy cash flow, even after all the criticism arsehole says he will only bring in 3 players, the first of which is on a free I read this morning, they will take £50 million for Sanchez no drama...!

 

[City_Sean]

Sanchez is a bargain even at £70m. The contract length he's on doesn't matter, Lukaku is about to move for £87m who's not in the same stratosphere.

If Arsenal sign Lacazette it would soften the blow for them

 

[EastStand202]

No, no he wasn't. He's the same as Indykaila

Yes he was the one that broke Pep news!

 

[citizens_1976]

Madrid just won their league and the champions league. Maybe the competition for places helped then do that. If a few players are unhappy along the way I'm sure they will take that.

Agree with this, to be challenging on all fronts, we need a proper strong squad with quality on the bench.

Nothing will ever be plain sailing and there will be players unhappy along the way, but if we win trophy after trophy I couldn't give a flying one.

Imagine having kun and Alexis on the same team both 30 goal a season players !!!
