Dribble said:I watched a recording of the Mexico v Chile match last night and based on what I saw Sanchez isn't worth anywhere near £45m!! Out of the Chile side Hernandez & Vidal stood out slightly ahead of Isla & Sanchez. I was trying to watch the match with the mindset of not knowing any of the players on view even though is was difficult not to pay special attention to Sanchez because we are in for him, but to be honest I thought he was good, but no way as brilliant as everyone has been making out.
OK, it was only one match, but that's my assessment of him based on what I saw. Also, Isla was playing as the right winger, whilst Sanchez was playing a free role behind the main striker. Yes, I'd buy Sanchez, but from what I saw I would say he was worth £10-£15m - £20m at a stretch, but like I said, this is ONLY based on what I saw in one match. To say that he has the potential to become the world's best player seems to exaggerate his ability to effect a game somewhat. I would say he was similar type of player to Jack Wilshire, but he had less of an effect than Wilshire would have had against what was effectively a Mexico U21 side with SIX debutantes in the side!!
If he came to us he'd be competing with David Silva and Silva is way, way way ahead of him and only 2-3 years older. Based on what I saw of Sanchez, I wouldn't be too disappointed if we didn't get him. Hope this personal assessment helps to settle a few worried minds. :-)
This is a Sanchez thread? The Tevez one is a bit further down. :-) Have you anything to add to the Sanchez debate? If not, jog on & go find something more constructive to do with your time...Mancio said:Dribble said:I watched a recording of the Mexico v Chile match last night and based on what I saw Sanchez isn't worth anywhere near £45m!!

i watched tevez last game with argentina , based on what i saw in that single one game i would say he is worth no more than 10M

I think it is fair to say that the poster qualified his post several times with "based on what I saw" and "in this one game", so why come in and make that cheap shot at him? He is entitled to his view, and I for one am more interested in someone's views on the latest performance of our major summer target than I am in some snotty comment from a snidey twit

He's making a perfectly valid point & doesn't deserve the abuse for it.
How much would Rooney, Lampard or Gerrard be worth combined based on most of their England performances over the last few years?
Paul Scholes in his England career?

I wasn't abusing him, I was supporting him in being entitled to his view, and I commented that I was interested to hear how he played last night???

In short, Mancio is taking a cheap shot! A few posts previous to this, people were discussing what Sanchez's performance was like in the recent international, but having to get up early for work the next morning, I wasn't able to watch the match live at 2am so I watched the recording I'd made 24 hours later and I made a lucid comment based on the 'ONE' match that I've seen our 'supposed' major summer target play in.Neville Kneville said:BringBackSwales said:Neville Kneville said:He's making a perfectly valid point & doesn't deserve the abuse for it.

I'm talking about Mancio's comparisons with Tevez & the fact that he's saying you can't judge a player on an international game, hence Tevez looks poor for Argentina sometimes & I'm drawing the comparison with Rooney & Co who also often look poor in internationals.
In short, Mancio is making a fair point.

and Fabregas is their priority.........Sanchez will have to wait for Barca if that's what he wants.
