Well surely you can see that a £300m spend is plausible if we're already approaching £200m before the end of July? I think we all find inflationary fees obscene, but your initial post suggested that not hitting £300m was something of an anti-climax. Apologies if misconstrued, but I can't help but feel that sometimes you're contrary for the sake of it.

I cant understand some of the flapping in here. Even if this is true and you do miss out on Sanchez, it's not make or break. You've got the right back position sorted, the left back will be next, and you've added areally good creative player in Silva. You have a guaranteed goal scorer in Aguero, and a potential superstar in Jesus for a full season. Meanwhile we could be about to lose our best player. I know who's position I'd rather be in.
football fans for you.

Amen to that.

Not sure the word despair is adequate enough. The people who cannot see what is being built don't really deserve to be part of it, in my humble opinion!Well, we're on the verge of a £200m transfer window, with over 5 weeks of the window remaining. Because "someone pointed out that we are not trying to compete with United, Arsenal, Chelsea at al. Our rivals are Bayern, Madrid and Barca" that means we're failing?! Christ, United are probably the wealthiest club on Earth in terms of what they can and will spend. I despair at some of our fans at times.
Amen to that.
Correct.
I said last night that if we pull off Mendy and Danillo, Sanchez was just a bonus.
We created more chances than anyone last season. With the most prolific striker in the division. I don't know what or when it wrong, but that is a recipe most will kill for.
If we can keep Aguero on the pitch for a full season, with what's around him, we will be in a good place.

To be fair to the flappers we've had reports from Maks, Marti, Sam Lee, and Tolmie stating at how confident (IE: arrogant) we were about landing sanchez. I thought it was ridiculous but held my tongue. So some of the panic is deserved?

It's not panic.
Arsenal wont sell to us.
To be honest, I'm tired of the bull shit now. Give Nasri a shake and get the fucker on board for a season. If there is a role for Sanchez we can find one for Samir

I'm with you. I thought it was a long shot but was pretty intrigued and optimistic via what we've heard all along but definitely never penciled him in and I even posted a few times that I wasn't so sure that this would go through.
Cest la vie though blues. Deal isn't dead to be fair and I think we'll be ok regardless.
You mean a plan b
Everybody knows transfer deals can go tit's up that's why you have a plan b
I don't know, didn't sound like Danilo was a plan B, just that it went tits up, and Pep made a decision. Sam Lee said the club had barely looked at him compared to a normal transfer target and that it's completely a pep purchase.
Does that count as a plan B? I always assumed our plan B's would be just as thoroughly researched as the main targets.
