Alexis Sanchez

Dangerously close to common sense that.

Can't have that. Bring down the banhammer I say.

Alexandre Lacazette will move to Arsenal on a five-year deal from Lyon for €53M, according to @telefoot_TF1

posted 30 min ago, don't know how reliable they are

If as suggested, Arsenal are struggling with FFP ((karma), how can they possibly keep Ozil and Sanchez on increased salaries, buy Lacazette, Mbappe et al and pay them similar salaries to Ozil and Sanchez.

Arsenal and Sanchez/agent are playing a game of brinkmanship. Arsenal are trying to force Sanchez away from England, which they are more than happy do, whilst Sanchez clearly wants us and has made ridiculous salary demand of Bayern.

My take is he will leave Arsenal, it is just a case of who backs down.

I don't believe the Mbappe talk btw. He will end up at Real at some point either this or next year.

Agreed - I think it's a matter of when, not if with Sanchez.

They could easily decide to make him see out the final year of his contract on the basis that a club at this late stage is unlikely to be able to bring in a player who could score and create as many as he does. It depends on the players attitude and how his game progresses.

if I were Arsenal I would sell, if I were City, and I really believed a striker was needed, I'd be looking at younger players. Sanchez is a player for now - for both City and Arsenal, but not for 18 months down the line. From City's standpoint there are bigger demands in the short term, and better striking options in the long term. But City have clearly decided we want him so that's really irrelevant.

When did the transfer window open????

At this 'late' stage... you get better, starving

Bluemoon, fucking up peoples concept of time 2017

Am I the only person not expecting any sort of statement from Sanchez directly after tonights final ?
Just because he has stated he will let us know his outcome, he surely has to go back to Arsenal and discuss this ... unless he has already been given the green light and knows he will be leaving with their "blessing".

I don't know why people are expecting any kind of statement from Sanchez. If he signs, the club will announce it.

I suppose he can come out and say publicly, "I want to leave." Would be tremendous pressure on Arsenal to move him seeing that a contract extension is completely out of the question.

Therefore we should ignore all he said yesterday in his interview ? Yes ?

Thats all that I`m expecting at the moment.
