Alexis Sanchez

[bluemonkey71]

Right the good news is only 16 hrs left of hammering the F5 key

5/6 to stay at Arsenal
5/6 to come to us.

Some good money to be made if you think we'll get him.

Not feeling too confident today. Think it depends on whether Arsenal are able to get a replacement in. If we start getting reports of that then I'll begin to get excited.

 

[SWP's back]

Well, in today's transfer market, Sanchez is easily worth more than 80 million. Which is why Arsenal are asking for 75m, attempting to ignore that he is in his final year. It is up to City to decide whether to accede to this demand or stick to offering 50-60m and make them sweat till they agree.

Obviously I would love to wait till next season and get him for free, but players are fickle-minded and can easily change their minds, Dani Alves being the prime example. I imagine even under-crisis Barcelona would come calling next season if they thought they could get him for free.

It's now or never..

Ignoring his contract situation then he's worth £130m (better than Coutinho) in today market. Hence 70m isn't too crazy given he has a year left.

Anyone thinks Alexis will do a quick medical before his game? Or will the fitness test be OK?

 

[marshymcfc]

As long as we sign Evans I'll be satisfied.

That's the spirit!

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Have Arsenal had any links with him?.....Would be Sanchez replacement?

Blurry, but Riyad Mahrez's been spotted at Paris airport (@imadbabouri). He's there in case a deal gets done. No agreements yet. #cfc #thfc

Alexis is done, Mahrez going to Arsenal.

Says??

 

[sir baconface]

He can walk and run. Why does he need a medical. We signed an injured mendy. Gundhogen had a dislocated knee and Santa Cruz turned up for his medical in an ambulance.

Ha, yes. And spent the next two years on a life support machine.

Hopefully Arsenal get Mahrez and possibly Draxler spending the money they get from us for Sanchez.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

If it's dependent on Arsenal signing a replacement before the window closes (Mahrez, Draxler etc.), I fear we could run out of time.

 

[Zak747]

If we get Sanchez this has to be our best ever transfer window. Also we've got rid of a lot of players and a few more could go today.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

As I posted yesterday I do feel Arse want to drag this out right to the death and trouser the money stating it's too late to buy followed by 'no value' in January.

 

[johnmc]

Why Mahrez in Paris? Don't get it.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

The flapping has started early

 

[worsleyweb]

Why Mahrez in Paris? Don't get it.

Just at the airport I think.

 

[marshymcfc]

Agreed. Sanchez is the last piece of the jigsaw for a team that can challenge on all fronts.

 

[SWP's back]

Ha, yes. And spent the next two years on a life support machine.

Ha

I personally think getting money for Delph, Bony, Mangala could play a part in our transfers today. All looked like we had arranged clubs & fees. Now all could of fallen through. Only loan deals.
