What I find strange is we buy Bony for £27m yet won't get Sanchez for £35m and allow a rival to strengthen can only assume we are buying big but when?

What this thread is missing is a mystery ITK post that their neighbours catsitter just told them that their husband was passing Pep's house five minutes ago and saw Alexis on his knees on the doorstep singing Please Release Me.

Because there was an original deal in place in the summer- the agent has moved the goalposts to line his own pocket- we’ve told them to fuck off- what don’t we understand??

It sounds like this could be fun.
We said the deal was too expensive to pursue, now it seems that the rags were going to fund this by swapping Micky Terry Ann, which in effect would remove the transfer element of the deal, He is earning around £160k per week which and has 3 years left on his deal. So if this went through they are basically getting Sanchez for £200k per week + any agent fees.
On the face of it that seems to be quite reasonable for them the trouble is that the little Armenian seemingly doesn't fancy the move and if he goes wants a wage rise as well as his contract paying up. His agent is Riola and so I can't see him bending over and he no doubt understands the position of strength he now finds himself in.
I'm not sure that Arsenal will be prepared to pay him the best part of £200k per week given his perfomances thus far, the only way I can see this happening is if the rags were to help in on his way with a hefty pay off which may be in the region of £5 million :)

They aren't our rival mate, we're streets ahead of them.

This is a thread closing post if ever I saw one. Spot on & the correct thing for the club to do.

Hi I am the mystery KFA and have on good authority that Pep has sanchez hiding under his enormous (sorry massive) flatcap at mansfield
Don't know if anyone's said this yet, because I cant be arsed reading back over 4000 pages, I reckon Utd were only ever trying to raise the price for us and never really wanted him. I think all of this is us trying to call their bluff. Hence the panic in trying to swap instead of paying the original £35m or whatever it was they used as a carrot. However if they do manage to do the deal and swap Sanchez for Mkhitaryan then that is a steal. Because he's shite.
