When Kyle Walker is going for 50m and Lukaku for 75-90m, makes you think what a player like Sanchez is worth. Far more than what we will get for him, that's for sure.

Just like we undersold Fabregas massively at 30m.
He has 1 year left on his contract so no club will pay more than £60M I reckon and Bayern won't pay more than about £40M max, it looks like City or no one so I say hold on to him for that last year, my evil twin kinda wants us to sell him to City though just to add fuel to the anti-Kroenke/Wenger feeling, also it will probably f*ck up Chelsea and Spurs chances at the title next season as City will be too strong.

Yes I'd take a year of pain and finishing mid table if it meant at the end of it - Wenger getting sacked and Kroenke selling up while City walked the league, of course it won't happen though, we'll lose Sanchez and the two old c**ts will still be festering like a pair of rancid old cheesy socks that a tramp has used to wipe their arse with.

Oh, he's going to City. They're the only ones in properly for him and we can't allow him to walk away for free at the end of his deal. Our whole club is fucking money mad.
We'll get one of their unwated players in return who'll be paid a fortune and then be injured or shit for five years. It will then be spun as a masterstroke from Wanker who has got rid of a disruptive player and replaced him with a 'genuine winner' who will be anything but. Think Cole and Gallas in 2006.
The other scenario which is just as likely is that he ends up at the Chavs for £90m on August 31st as they've managed to fuck up their transfer targets so far and will need a big name to blow money on before the end of the summer. We again, love money and they love spending it. We might accept £60m and they chuck in some average nobody or a has-been like Fabregas who'll be trunpted as a wonder signing and the home-coming of a hero.
Whatever happens, Sanchez is off.

The odds on Lemar joining Arsenal are shorter than Sanchez joining City, If we get Lemar over the line it would be interesting to see if Sanchez makes what would not be an unrational decision to stay another year and see what happens. I guess it's a question of whether he thinks we are good enough to compete for the league next season. Lemar plus a CB would really strengthen our squad. I quite like the look of the southampton defender van dijk who would be perfect at dealing with set pieces so we don't get arse raped at places like the Hawthorns. Alas it appears he is going to Pool.

I still expect Sanchez to go to City, but we don't need the money now. We are anything but a poor club. It's mind boggling how many fans we have overseas. We finally seem to have tapped into that market.

Just got back from Italy and seen this...

Arsenal have made a bid worth a reported £123m for Kylian Mbappe

WTF...has to be fake news, doesn't it... :roll:
I would so love them to accept the bid. Wenger and Kroenke would sh*t themselves.
Yeah true.... :D :D :D

It'll be interesting to see if Lacazette makes the grade. At that price, he'd fucking better. He's got a good goal average; almost 50% strike rate in games to goals at club level, although hasn't figured much at international level which is the litmus test. I've never heard of the other bloke and we could be spunking £40M+ up the wall on yet another signing from France.

I'm not surprised that Ozil wants to stay. A post-2008 Arsenal is a the perfect home for a talented underachiever with no physicality or bottle, with a manger who will never place demands on him or drop him. We certainly can't get the best out of him with this tactical black hole of a manager we are lumbered with for the rest of his life. Losing Sanchez won't help Ozil either. They gave each other so many goals last season that broke free of our traditional stale sideways football.

It sounds like there will be an attempt to hold Sanchez to the final year of his contract, but seems inevitable we'll take the coin, as we did with Na$ri. I pray he goes abroad, but we all know he'll end up with Citeh. Let's face it; he'd be mad to stay at this banter club.

It is all fucking immaterial with that fraud in our dugout. That fraud could fuck up a cup of coffee :suicide:
Brilliant description of Ozil, Sean. I've oft defended his "style" on here and obviously I rate him as one of only two world class players we have. But I've always admitted he is a luxury player and you can only get the best from a luxury player if you build your team around their particular talent - something Wenger doesn't have the guile or knowledge to do effectively. :|

Ozil and Sanchez plus a world class striker and a couple of top PL quality defensive midfielders (not even world class, just PL class) in a pragmatic system could win the PL. With Wenger in charge we will never see that... we will always be one or two key signing away from the title. :x :|

Either way, if the spuds lose Dier they are in big shit. He holds their team together.

Jordon Ibe....as you know that's the one that started it all for me, that's when the first bite was taken.

The hipsters favourite calamity keeper that's gone to Everton for £30m, the Belgian Carl Cort with the first touch of a wheelie bin for a cool 100m quid :shock:

Then yesterday the cherry on the cake....Kyle Walker.....50 million quid :coffeespit:

All that's left to do now is sit back and wait to see what transfer causes to game to take the final bite and completely consume itself.

Ok. So far we have had the Game eating its right leg, right arm, its own arsehole, and it is currently nibbling contentedly at its left leg...? :rubchin:

I reckon if an actual bidding war breaks out for Kyle Walker then that would be it. Full consumption. Gone. Done. :shock:
