Alexis Sanchez

[ctid83]

They need more than Sanchez to make the top 4, Us, Chelsea,Spurs,Liverpool & rags all ahead of them I'd even put Everton close. Going to be a season of struggle for Arsenal imo.

Yea know what you mean!
Just think we could have done more

 

[mosssideblue]

Agreed. Too complex to predict, mostly regarding Arsenal's stance though.


2) Not foolish, if Sanchez has no value for them by then due to injuries or miserable performances. IF he is valuable, they'll keep him. That's all I was saying. If he tries to be valuable, he won't be allowed to leave to City in January.


No. I think Alexis atm isn't in a good mental and physical shape. I think he wants out, to City.
I think he won't do Wenger a favour by great performances.
When he is useless for Arsenal, they finally should take the reduced money offered
and as well save his loyalty bonuses due in summer (if that's a factor at all).

I also think City and Pep still want him, unchanged.
It's only about Arsenal and Wenger.

So again, if Alexis wants to leave in January he has to work hard to be useless for Arsenal.

I dont see him doing that and, tbh, I wouldn't want him to - he is a professional sportsman

Bidding earlier wouldn't have made Arsenal act any quicker as they are just plain incompetent, and their " £92 million bid for Lemar " looks as unlikely as ever, and a smokescreen to appease their supporters , whilst keeping firmly hold of their money.

Just another in the long catalogue of Arsenal fuck ups, including giving Wenger another contact imo.

Giving wenger another contract was the best thing the arsenal board did, for other teams.

There are only two ways Arsenal can save face with this mess. They need to get Sanchez to sign a new one year deal on the agreement they will sell him if he does next Summer. Then they can get highest bid then or in January if a bid comes in above the minimum they agree with Sanchez they will accept.

Or he becomes the great player he can be, gets Arsenal firing and he is willing to push for CL with a deal that if they do he will sign a new contract then.

City will not get him next Summer on a free. Not going to happen. Arsenal will want money if he refuses to sign a new deal or agree to any arrangement behind the scenes.

So they will do a deal with any foreign club offering money in January which they will try to delay to Summer but accept at a pinch if they will not wait.

The only way City will sign Sanchez is if he does not get it together between now and January and City offer big. I said before the window closed we will not get him for less than £40 million in January. I stand by that. And I am not convinced they will sell at that if they get half that from, say, PSG or Bayern for an advance deal for June.

Getting £20 million and him gone to a foreign team will be a victory for Wegner in his current predicament.

To keep him with a PL rival City will need to offer not a lot less than they were willing to this Summer.

So, you think he doesn't have any say in where he ends up?

They tried selling to foreign clubs in the summer but he only wanted us, I'd expect the same in January. He will either come to us for about £20-25 mill or go for free in summer. Which it is probably depends on how he plays up until Christmas and whether Arsenal think its worth £25 mill to hold onto him for the last 4 months.

OK let's move on

Don't agree.

Only two possible ways this is ending

1. Arse sell to city in Jan at a cut price of 20mil or so
2. Arse hold onto him for the season but convince Sanchez to perform by incentivising his pay.... x amount per goal, x amount for a win, x amount if Arse make top 4.

Option 2 is the most likely since they can justifiably say the 'gamble' paid off and CL qualification is worth the £60M loss on Sanchez as he waves bye bye in the summer for fuck all

Just my 2p

any foreign club can agree a deal with sanchez in January to move for free at the end of his contract, so your scenario is fantasy

 

[Healdplace]

We will see I guess. I will still not be surprised to see him sign a new deal.

As for him having a say in where he goes. Yes, of course. But it did not make a difference this Summer and Wenger will have to try to look as if he knew what he was doing.

To sell to City for £20 million will seem like genius by City and idiocy by Wenger so hard to see why he would be okay with that.
