Alexis Sanchez

It has a lot to do what you prioritize. The fact that Arsenal go out of the CL so early every year is a reason why you can push on in the FA cup. Take us last year for example. Pellers liked to go strong into the League cup since it was earlier in the season. When it came to the FA cup he tanked it against Chelsea and played our kids because we had a CL Semi Final. Pep this year tanked the League Cup and played a very weakened team against United. Because of the fact some clubs aren't sending out their best team dilutes both cups. I think the fact that you guys got smashed in against Bayern is what upset Sanchez so much. Your team accepted defeat and that didn't sit well with him.

Good points you raise there.

If you carry on with the "won practically nothing" mantra you will be removed from the thread for trolling
Recent years is a subjective length of time used by you to denigrate City, so stop it.

Very original that, a ban threat, good debating mate.

Do what you like.

Well stop making shit up then to suit.....

We have no problem with rival fans on here at all as long as they remember where they are and show the required amount or respect.

By all means put your opinions across but do so in the right way and factually.

I cant argue with any of these points, but your performance in the league, in Cl against Monaco, or losing to us in the cup is hardly an endorsement of him to move.
You are more appealing than us, youre better,and have CL. But its hardly a "we are not rivals, what are they on about" scenario, you finished below spurs last season, you have a lot of work to do, it wont be guaranteed trophies for Sanchez.
I am not wondering why he wants to leave us, he gave his best, and never let us down, in some ways we let him down, but Pep is far more appealing to him than city, thats all im saying. Had Pep gone to United or Chelsea, hed want to go there.

I totally agree with that, Its our lack of ambition in recent years that have pushed Sanchez into this position, although if it wasnt for Pep hed never want to join Man city because youve won practically nothing in recent years either, even less than Arsenal. I think this summer we are showing the ambition we should have shown for the last 4 years but only because weve dropped out of the top 4, and its come too late for Sanchez and I cant blame him.
I would sell him for 80m to City, for 50m abroad, and be equally happy to see him play one more season for us. I think these are good parameters set by the club, if City really want him theyll pay the 80m, we are not standing in his way, the ball is in city's court now, he can see how much the likes of Lukaku are costing, if Sanchez had a long contract , hed be worth over 100m in this market.

I don't understand why you lot have to have a tantrum every time you sell,ever thought players you are buying may be missed by the fans of their club ?

Ok. You claim Arsenal have won more in recent years than us despite not putting any meat on those bones and you didnt do that because it wouldnt have suited your argument and it would have spoilt what was a little dig by you and yep, you guessed it on a City forum full of City fans and a thread where Sanchez to us is being discussed its going to wind a few up, hence why you got called out for trolling which is against our code of conduct.

Dont feel all special over it, plenty of our own get called out for it as well and end up with the same fate.

All we ask is just think before you post and say is this designed to stir debate and garner opinions or is it designed to cause an argument?

If its the latter you will go its that simple.

The context used that by "nothing in recent years either, even less than Arsenal" means that he's referencing the period since 2014-15 during which time Arsenal have won 2 FA Cups and City have won 1 League Cup. It is factual even if a bit forced.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

give us 80m which is fair

There are all words, the only thing that matters is trophies in the cabinet, thats how you judge success, at the moment we are both underachieving, you more so because you have better players.
Im sorry but city are not a roaring success, and when I see people say he wants to leave the team that downs tools and give up, and wins nothing.....I wonder if hes seen city play.

Trophies in the cabinet mean nothing. It's all about today. Otherwise he'd join Nottingham forest,they have two big shiny cups in their cabinet. So ok which club right now is most likely to have a that shiny trophy in their cabinet? Fucking bingo.
You are has been. With 20 years of dominance,20 years of mega money in a closed shop,20 years with only one rival,You managed one solitary final.
Seriously I wouldn't come on here playing the Billy big bollocks with that record.
