Alexis Sanchez

[Dobsy]

If Pep thought Roberts was good enough why were we trying to flog him to Celtic?

Roberts isn't good enough. He's the same age as Sane. I dunno why people think he's the second coming.

3 and half hours to go before window shuts ...... time for a Mido bid

 

[2001BFGM]

I am still mad why we waited till the final 24 hrs to make a bid.

 

[finlay14]

This will happen 100percent look forward to seeing him in blue tomorrow keep the faith ctwd

We didn't get Evans, so it's not all bad news.

I honestly would be more pissed if we signed Evans.
I'd rather not sign Sanchez and not sign Evans than not sign Sanchez but sign Evans!

 

[Xiphos]

No idea what he posted, but I don't think it's dead because I still think this is the Arsenal narrative. If they'd stuck with not selling, maybe, but they agreed the price at lunchtime then looked at the clock and realised they couldn't do a deal - BS

Arsenal don't look at clocks, they still do their deals by smoke signals or message flags

Man City miss out on Sanchez after Arsenal move for Lemar collapses

http://dailym.ai/2glPyB8

100% a city press briefing . Damage limitation???

Why tf would City brief some random mail reporter and not Mulloc/Lee/Blackburn?

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Massive bet just gone in on him joining us, does someone know something?

He should do a Costa and refuse to travel back.

 

[Tom_mcfc]

Awful from us to let it reach this point. Madness "planning"

 

[SWP's back]

Probably because Tolmie convinced idiots betting on Sanchez joining us lol. Makes me wonder, maybe he works for betting company :/

Hmm

 

[MCFC1993]

I would say from what i've seen online the majority of Arsenal fans 'want to sell him' and 'can't believe that Lemar is the only replacement for him.'

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Managed to get 9/2 plus free £30 bet with code C30

Balls deep now with this and previous bet at 6/1 with bet365 a few weeks ago ;)

I've had a Bobby Moore at 11-4 as well a few weeks back. He was around 1-4 yesterday and I was feeling quite smug.. not no Si fuckin cocky now though! :-(

 

[carlosthejackal]

Going to do the washing up , would expect a u turn within the hour

 

[OhSoGroovy]

What a shit day

 

[venom99]

Everyone in Chile wants to kill Kroenke and Wegner...

 

[ninjamonkey]

I'm mystified why some posters think betting odds actually mean anything.

Some people just can't understand how betting works.

Players of sanchez's ilk don't go for free. He's only 28, no way will arsenal give up a huge fee to let him walk away for free. We let zabba, sagna and clichy go for free as they was way past 30.
It's the unwritten rule in football that most clubs will command a fee for a player with one year left who doesn't want to sign another contract, is under 30 and has a good few years left in him.
Look at Andre Gray at Burnley. A year left, didn't want to sign another contract so dyche got shut.
Arsenal will sell Sanchez. They will be committing football suicide if they don't.

 

[Marvin]

This is still alive. City have said take it or leave it. They're making Arsenal sweat.

We might believe they were just angling for more money, and intend to sell him? Their journalists may have been used to put pressure on us

I think it is unlikely though.

 

[Lemon7277]

Maybe arsenal could go down the loan route for draxler at this late stage
