No way Arsenal will sell Sanchez to us and really don't think his attitude is right for us anyway - his contract situation has overshadowed Arsenals season. Pep is building a real togetherness in our squad that has been lacking for some time. We will need to chose our recruits carefully and I'm not sure Sanchez fits the bill in terms of age or attitude. He certainly has ability but I think Pep is looking to build something truly great with very high quality young players. I hope we keep Aguero and give Sanchez a miss - let him go to Juve.

I agree,, more important than any one man is order.
 
In purely footballing terms I think he'd be perfect for us and up until fairly recently I had a feeling (and hoped) we would get him this summer. Just don't see it now though for various reasons. Jesus has hit the ground running, Sergio seems to be responding to the challenge, Sane and Sterling both look great, Arsenal will do everything they can to make sure he doesn't come to us and supposedly he has his heart set on going back to Italy. And that's before you even factor in his attitude at times this season. Part of me thinks he'd have a better attitude with us, surrounded by better players but then if we don't improve defensively next season I could see him getting frustrated and doing his nut again. Just doesn't feel right anymore to me.
 
Pep mentioned in his OS interview that most of our summer signings will be young, but we might sign someone in the summer who is older "28 or 29", so you never know.

It must be the best feeling in the world when your manager thinks mostly like you do.

I love hearing Pep saying things I've been arguing for for years :-)
 
He's been professional when on the pitch and has everything we need. 17 goals and 9 assists doesn't scream unprofessional to me, it says he's fed up of only aiming for top 4 and being out of everything by March. If the price is right, I say get him.

Indeed, but you just wait and see the reaction here when Pep sanctions a new three-year deal for Kolarov. :-)

If Sergio was to leave then he would be a great signing for us.

Sanchez
Sane Sterling

That would scare the shit out of any defence.

Sanchez would play second fiddle to Gabriel Jesus and I don't think he'd like that at this point in his career. Of course we need more than three players for those three positions but he's been in a similar situation at Barca and ended up leaving to be top dog at another club.

For those reasons (and the several arms and legs Arsenal would demand for him) I'd have to say I'd be more than content if we passed up the opportunity to sign him.

A happy Sanchez would be a terrific player for any club in the world but we've got three youngsters who are tearing it up now and could easily go on to be a level above his. An unhappy Sanchez looks like someone who blames everyone but himself - sometimes correctly - and a total morale sapper.
 
I can completely understand his frustration, he busts a gut every game, and on many occasions, drags Arsenal off the ground, how many of his team mates can look each other in the eye and tell them they are giving their all?
I would've loved to see him at City, the passion and tenacity of Tevez. but Arsenal will not sell to us again.

Same. :)

Me and an IRL city fan have been calling for the Young Boy Revolution for a couple of years now. I still can't believe we landed the crown jewel in Jesus :). Sane was a fantastic surprise for me personally as I didn't see enough of him to set any expectations. I really wanted to add Renato to the roster but we can't get em all. Mbappe, weigl, Bellerin, bernardo silva, and ederson are what I have my eyes set on as of now.

I'm pretty bummed at how little game time Garcia has gotten because I wanted to find out if he's good enough to start in the dream YBR squad.

I was on the fence with Raz but not anymore (have to be the best talent at the position and have baloon d'or / world 11 potential to make the dream squad). Sadly Kelechi isn't good enough to make it as of now :(.

You have anyone else lined up other than Mbappe?

...or Chelsea or the rags?
 
Sanchez reminds me a bit of Tevez. Tremendous workrate and talent but hard to keep happy. Could be troublesome if not selected enough.
 
Arsenal will win their trophy ( finishing in the top 4 )with or without Sanchez.

They have won it with Bendtner before , now with Sanchez and later it will be someone else.
 
He's obviously a great player, but I'm not sure where he'd fit into our team. Would've loved to have signed him a few years ago, but don't think he's what we need right now. Can se him going to Juventus,
