Get the lad in. Beats putting Fernandinho on the fucking pitch when your 2-0 down.

If not available
Cantwell from Norwich as plan B?

Fucking hell if we end up with Cantwell having lost Sane we are in a dire state.

Another Mahrez/Bernardo type of player, technically proficient but lacking killer acceleration to go pass players. No matter how good his attitude, it'll not be easy for him to establish himself in this team. We had Sané, I'm not convinced this guy would be half as useful.

Like dumping Charlize Theron and replacing her with Sonia from Eastenders

He’s not the same as Sané but he does have that initial burst to go past players. One thing he has in his locker is his delivery of a pass/cross. I have to give him that. Does that well. It’s tough and will be tough to find someone similar to Sané. Even if the club want to buy a pace merchant, he has to have a football brain at least.

As seen last night, that initial burst of speed is what we need. Sane would have been no good last night, there was no space in behind Arsenal for him to run into. We needed someone who could get around a defender over 5 yards and then deliver quality in tight spaces. Sane was great at lightning quick counter attacks, but against parked busses, he was very frustrating. How many times did he run the ball out of play? As he had no space to use his pace and get in behind.

Now I can't recall ever seeing Torres play. If he has that Tevez burst of acceleration, which can get him away from a player even though there is no room to operate, and has Mahrez like technical quality, then he would fit in well with this squad.

We are better off signing Amy Adams.
