Alexis Sanchez

[paulchapo]

Yep. He's clearly said he wants to leave, but respects Wenger decision.

He has no choice but to respect the decision because he is under contract. The dilemma for Wenger and Arsenal is do they now retain him and hope he doesn't go through the motions then lose him for nothing, or do they take the money now? It is a tough call as unless you unearth an unknown gem where do you get the quality of Sanchez at short notice for 50-60 million?

With talk of Dybala going to Barca I can see Sanchez rocking up at Juve.

Unlikely. Correct me if I'm wrong but haven't Juve reached their non-EU signings quota with the addition of Douglas Costa?

That is unless Sanchez has a European passport.

 

[silva_is_gold]

His agent prefers him to stay. Better financial rewards next year.

We will see lol I certainly wouldn't hold ur breath on that mate.... For me he seems to have taken the "wenger says ur staying" a bit to easily for my liking & looks a little to happy for someone that's said he wants CL football & wants out if arsenal lol but time will tell ;)

You can't, you'd need to add another £40m on top.

The way the window is going yes but no way anyone is going to pay that for an almost twenty nine year old in the last year of his contract.

Why would Sanchez play at Monaco in front of 5,000? If he's up for it though I'd ask for Lemar. Could get Lemar and ANO.

 

[Leto]

That's how crazy the market is at the moment, Arsenal are willing to spend £100m to loan Sanchez and Ozil for one season.

 

[Jack Hackett]

Sanchez will be a year older next year. How will his performance play out in 2017/2018? Will ne be as attractive to another club, then? Who knows but there's risks on both sides for player and club?

It takes a big set of bollocks to enter the final year of your contract, at his age. There would be something to admire if he had the bottle to do that.

Only Zis, and the players don't seem to be arsed. I thought they would be kicking up a stink by now at this stage of their careers. Maybe that's to come.

Fair fucks to arsenal if they stand their ground city trying to be billy big bollox by tapping up the player then put in a last minute bid.

We get an injury to aguero or Jesus during the season we won't be winning no league

I think youll win the league anyway, I dont think the premier league is jam packed with quality, any team with De Bruyne and Sane should be winning it.
If we had those 2, I wouldnt be so nice on here, Id be giving it large and being generally annoying.
I think Sane next season is going to be spoken off right up there with the likes of Dembele and Mbappe. De Bruyne is the most gifted player in the league since Dennis Bergkamp, magical player. And you have arguably the world's best manager.
You have so much going for you, I dont understand how many of you appear somewhat doubtful about next season.

Yeah I suppose. I didn't rate nacho but he was an option unless we go with bony as a 3rd striker

I understand that but not many top teams only have 2 strikers there's a lot of games if you wanna try win everything

I said all a long this wouldn't happen should of moved on weeks ago

Shouldnt that be if "we" get an injury to Lukaku or Rashford?

Im not sure about that, certainly not in England. We have Lacazette and Giroud, Chelsea Morata and Batshwayi, United Lukaku and Rashford?, Spurs just Kane really, Liverpool dont really play with a striker and sturridge is never fit. None of the others have 2 strikers that are as good as yours. Even europe, as things stand, Barca have Suarez and Messi , Real have Ronaldo and Benzema , PSG Neymar and Cavani, and these are teams that play 2 upfront, you play 1. If needs be you can easily play Sterling down the middle, or Sane. Pep plays a fluid attacking game, its based on movement, so you dont really need a traditional target man, you have at least 4 players that can do a job as a "striker". If you fail to win things I dont think itll be the attack thats the issue.

I can see Sanchez to Monaco having legs... We get Mbappe now he has said he wants to leave. We give Monaco a clear run at Sanchez... Wenger saves a tiny bit of face by selling abroad. Everyone happy... except maybe Sanchez but his options shrink if we pull out. Psg have Neymar . Munich heave already withdrawn etc... at least he gets champions league and a sun tan...

Alexis to Monaco might be the dumbest tabloid rumor I've heard all summer.
