Alexis Sanchez

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Backward bastards.

It's their loss.

 

[Shaelumstash]

Still no news from this end.

Appreciate all the updates, mate. Any signs of Dembele out there?

 

[BuryBlue1977]

Obviously this is a bullshit story but on what planet would it make sense to swap Sergio for Sanchez?
There is no way Aguero would go to a Europa League serial loser side when he wants to stay and all at the club want him to stay. There will be no "first 11" next season but Aguero will play plenty of games and score a bucket load of goals. Only question is does Sanchez want to join him or does he want to play Thursday night football

Pep is relaxed about the Alexis situation and will see how the situation pans out, with the player favouring a move to City. [Telegraph]

 

[PinkFinal]

Perhaps Arsenal would like Nasri back, part exchange? ;-)

No mate, although I don't speak Italian.

Arsenal seem close on lacazette, Lemar and mahrez. Perhaps we've agreed to wait for them to sign before making our move.

If Arsenal sign those 3, then they can easily convince Sanchez to stay as that team is as good as rest of the Top 6.

 

[MillionDollarDream]

Lyon knocked backing the possibility of signing Giroud, and if they can't get their top targets Laca isn't leaving. Plus Laca wouldn't kick up a fuss to force a move to Arsenal when his original plan was to leave for Atleti who has the ban.

He`ll miss out on CL football though,thats the advantage we have.

serious??? you know its as much the manager as well as the players we have?

You think Stanley is going to rubberstamp nigh on £150m of signings and then give Sanchez a huge improved contract on top?

Me neither

Think you may have misread, Aulus has said they enquired about Giroud, but Arsenal have said they want to keep him just now. The proce is set for Lacazette, everyone knows it, it's now just up to Arsenal if they want to pay it. Lyon have signed Bertrand Traore and also want Real Madrid youngster Mariano Diaz as Lacazette replacements.

 

[Cotton Weave Blue]

Patience. It will be done once Arsenal have done some business and can mask over his departure.

Really?

Aguero, Sane, Sterling, Silva, Silva, Jesus, KDB would beg to differ.

Plus he's not really factoring in the rest of the two sides. Arsenal have rubbish options in the defensive areas, and Wenger is finished as a top coach.

To be fair so do we. Apart from Kompany who is obviously brilliant, our entire senior defensive options just at the moment (at centre back and full back) are Otamendi, Stones and Kolarov. Now I know we are sure to sign some defenders but potentially Arsenal could make some defensive signings too. But I am just playing devil's advocate. We will be streets ahead of Arsenal this coming season, I have absolutely no doubt.

Even with some new full backs, our centre back options aren't great.

To be fair, I made that post with the assumption we'll have Walker, Mendy, Bertrand and Alves as options, that makes us ridiculously strong in defensive areas, hopefully we'll hear something about this fourth choice CB soon too.

Traore is a wide man and Mariano is not who you call a Laca replacement. After Laca is Cornet who's not really good and some youth ST's. That's a huge drop off from someone like Giroud.

I think it's likely that Arsenal will sign Lacazette and Lemar, but I'm expecting Sanchez to leave. He wants to join City and I don't think Arsenal will turn down £50m.
