Alexis Sanchez

[balotelli's back pocket]

Don't understand why we had to wait until deadline day before making a bid. They won't sell Ox and Sanchez without having a player to come in. We're hardly helping ourselves.

We have been trying to sign him all summer. Arsenal have kept telling us to piss off. Now hey're blaming us. ****s

 

[pudge]

What was it, deadline day highlights the poorly run clubs?

Let Arse buy Lemar then we pull out.........Arsenal go bankrupt......they have to release all players and we pick up Sanchez on a freebie. .....BINGO

City left it too late? It was known all summer that Sanchez wanted out and City wanted him. Arsenal left it too late to find a replacement and come to the negotiating table.

 

[Mendy]

Don't know why the Arsenal fans are happy.
Their not getting Lemar, they only bought 1 player this transfer window, everyone wants to leave their club, dressing room is in chaos, Sanchez will just fuel the negativity in the dressing room.

 

[manimanc]

Ah well.

Don't fret mate. These snippets of info are up and down like a fiddlers elbow.

 

[west didsblue]

Arsenal were always gonna pull this shit, just up the bid to 70m and it'll get done

Nah, reduce the bid to £20m at 10:55 then if they refuse get him for nowt next year.

 

[simon23]

sly sports news still saying that arsenal have offered 92m for Lemar and that Monacos position has "softened" (i.e. they are willing to sell)

However also still saying that Sanchez move relies on this.....

Not sure how much to believe tbh as it all seems very choreographed just for the Deadline day show on SSN

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

I got a message about an hour ago from someone suggesting that things weren't going smoothly. Hoped it was wrong but maybe not after all. Hopefully there's still time to get things sorted.

Arsenal getting a replacement the problem ric?

 

[Wolfkin]

Give them 70 ffs

 

[mccity]

Somebody's getting a lot of money from the bookies after all this..

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

Arsenal fucking us about trying desperately to hold on to Sanchez. If this doesn't happen they will have a truly pissed of player and their dressing room will be toxic. I hope its not one of them did they or didn't they sign him and we have to wait days for clarification

 

[RichardDunneOwnGoal]

Off then.

Not getting my hopes up now. Anything happens it'll be a nice surprise.

Arsenal are a tinpot outfit more badly managed than Woolworths.

 

[citytill1die84]

Wow John Cross seems certain.

 

[SWP's back]

I really can't believe what absolute fucking mardarses we have on here.

It would be funny if you were taking the piss but you're not.

One fucking turd in the media flies a kite & this ?

Jesus H Christ.

Reminds me of the KDB flap two years ago. Now that was funny and there was zero mea culpa from the arseholes.

 

[Ric]

Arsenal getting a replacement the problem ric?

Don't know mate, trying to find out now.

 

[JustAnotherCityFan]

Damn John Cross better get on the blower to him and tell him he's wasting his time.

 

[kupest]

Could well be their tactic to leave it so late so they had a legit excuse to not selling him.
