Alexis Sanchez

[paulsimpson]

You would imagine they would distance themselves from it, by now.

Otherwise they are risking total humiliation, offering him the world to sign & he says 'nah, I'll wait & sign for City'.

Which is why we are still in there . If he's gone to that lot then why the silence from City ? No , there's more to this than meet the eye. This is very much still on imo .

And VVD. And Pogba.

To be honest, I'm still more upset that we missed out on VVD than anything to do with Sanchez.

Left out of squad to play Bournemouth. We lose at Anfield and unveiled as a United player tonight. Can see it.

And if that happens we'll still be 12 points clear (assuming rags win tomorrow), I'm sure we'll live

The problem with this stance is it doesn't have a very high success rate does it? We tried it with Hazard, we tried it with RVP, we tried it with Alves. And they all went for the money. If the rumours are true and we add Sanchez to this list then the club really needs to have a think about their "the player will choose us over money" strategy.

It has a great success rate.

We have therefore signed players, who want to be here.

We are 15 points clear, playing the best football we have ever seen, with players who are totally committed to working their balls off for the team & have a fantastic team spirit.

Fuck paying for some ****'s retirement plan, that's what Utd now do.

Not getting Sanchez in the summer has screwed us over though.......

Been a disaster. He could have been the missing piece in the jigsaw. Hope we can turn the season round.

 

[Bluesince1979]

We've really missed Alves though...

Wise move by our gaffers

 

[RandomJ]

yet here we sit 15 points clear and 30 wins form 33 games this season.

Im not saying it doesn't hurt to lose a player but its hardly a disaster for us either is it?

Oh so we've already won the league then? I hate this arrogance. A few bad games and the table soon changes. We haven't won fuck all and an injury to Aguero or a complication in Jesus' recovery and we're faced with the prospect of sticking Sterling or one of the kids up front in the champions league or important league games.

Yeah , I still think we should have signed VVD. We would have been sorted at the back for years.

Im still sat here thinking there is no way a fee and personal trms have been agreed with the rags without this being all over the news and official given we play later today, no way.

Hard to know blueinsa , sometimes these things move quickly.

The fact he hasn't travelled with the squad is significant ( stating the obvious I know unless injured ).

Could be the case Arsenal have made progress on his replacement.

If he joins them I won't lose any sleep.

We can target and get a younger player on smaller wages in the summer.

If and after we say no to being screwed by Arsenal/Sanchez and the player is truly worth £100M then yes it will cost £100M. However if we pay way over the odds then it would probably cost us £150M. You only have to look at what the rags paid for Pogba and Lukaku to see the on going impact of looking like a desperate and soft touch. When was the last time Spurs got screwed for a player? There is a reason for that.

When was the last time Spurs won anything? There is a reason for that
