Alexis Sanchez

[bluetev]

Yes - and 3 players that got significantly reduced game time in the season, because we couldn't fit them in.

Too much Football Manager on here me thinks. You cannot fit Jesus, Aguero, Sanchez, KDB, Sane, Sterling, Silva x 2 in the same side and expect to give them the minutes they deserve. It is not a balanced side - that Barcelona side of 2 seasons was a one-off, not the norm.

I think you can

With a standard 4-1-4-1 formation (2 wingers, 2 AM)
Striker: 1 out of Jesus / Aguero, either one of whom might be injured / suspended at points
Winger: 2 out of 3 (Sterling, Sane, hopefully Alexis). Note that both Sane and Sterling were overplayed last year
AM: 1-2 out of 3 (kdb, Silva, Silva)- again, the original Silva needs rest and kdb was aldo overplayed at times.

I see Ickleitis is still a problem for some.......Only City supporters could invent reasons not to want one of the worlds best attacking players,in his prime.

Just get him fucking signed!! Leave the 'problem' of selection/formation to our world class manager :-)

Sounds like someone else from the Borough of Trafford.

Nah; Wenger's French, isn't he?

"TAXI!!"

Imagine that.

I do feel if Pep gets his dream players as rumoured, one or two sides I feel will get a hammering next season.

I like the idea but in reality it won't happen. We ALWAYS take the foot off the gas. It's infuriating watching us dilly dally the last 15 minutes when in true there are times we could reach double figures. I know I'm pathetic and greedy but I just want to batter everyone. Then gloat like fuck :)

Nolito, Navas and Iheanacho replaced with B.Silva and Sanchez. So thats less attackers than last season.

Hopefully it's Bernardo, Sanchez and Roberts to replace the departing players.

Seconded

A mixture of exciting talented youth, alongside a mixture of exciting talented experienced players. Pep knows what he is doing, we are backing the manager 100% and some Blues think we shouldnt sign Sanchez !!!

We are looking to take the step to the next level (i.e winning the CL ) sanchez will help in trying to achieve that

Alexis Sanchez is kinda player you sign no matter how many players you have in the same position.

Hope he's as reliable as people are saying on social media.

- Quality player.
- Improves us.
- Pisses off Arsenal fans.
- Pisses off fans of other Premier League clubs.

Is there any downside to this!?

why would it piss off other PL clubs?

 

[mosssideblue]

Looking forward to it.

What's our best front 3 though?

The three selected to play on that particular day against that particular team. Need to get away from thinking there is a best this or that
