Alexis Sanchez

[ono]

Fits with earlier posts on here today suggesting things had moved very quickly in the last 24 hours and that both him and his camp had made it clear to Arsenal they were not fucking about mate.

Fingers crossed!

Sorry mate but i just cannot agree with you when you say lukaku is worth 75 mil. Its a ridiculous amount of money. If he was touted as coming to js for that amount i would be seriously pissd off with city!!

Not ridiculous in the current market when we're probably gonna pay over 40 million for kyle walker. Lukaku goal record speaks for itself and he's only 24.

I agree with your last point when you look at us spending only 40 plus million on Silva. I think Sanchez will cos close to 60 million though. He's a superior player to Lukaku but Lukaku has a lot more years in him. I think lukaku is a very handy player but he's also a lazy fucker with who bumbles about a bit and it doesn't worry me as much as if they were signing, say aubameyang or someone, but I don't think 75 million is particularly extortionate for a proven fairly prolific premier league striker at 24 years of age in the current market

For the rumored 100 odd million Lukaku is not a good signing in my opinion, to much of a incomplete striker, to be world record value or close to it you have to be complete. His first touch is atrocious, but he might be decent in a long ball like united but want contribute to any exciting as rag fans seem to be wanting

Yea I think 100 mill would start to push it

He's threatened to put in a transfer request was my reading of it - or is on the verge of doing so.

Ok cheers mate

Really don't understand this post, what do you mean transfer request being threatened ?

As in his team (whatever that means in this case) has very recently made it very clear that he is willing hand in a transfer request in an effort to push a move through. 'Allegedly'

Greatest single thing ever to appear on this site.

Errr.....

Its because they will want to control every single bit of his leaving, especially in the media.

But surely Arsenal want him leaving to be all about Sanchez not wanting to sign a new contract. Offered him highest ever wage. Signed sought after players to bolster the squad and he still hands a transfer request in. I don't understand how a transfer request doesn't play into arsenals hands if that's the rhetoric.

It means they've done everything they possibly can to keep him. There's no loyalty bonus, they 'don't force him to finish his contract', and it makes Sanchez look like the bad guy.

I think it might have to come to this actually.

If he was going to be bought from city now i guess you would look as 80-100 million
