Alexis has told the club he won't be signing a new contract, so obviously we'll sell him this summer because we can't possibly let him walk away for free.
Now the club can't possibly have word get out that Alexis won't sign because he doesn't think we're ambitious enough/doesn't trust Wenger/doesn't agree with where we're heading (exactly the same reasons as RvP by the way), so the club have had to concoct this story for why we simply had to sell him - "Oh, he's a troublemaker, causing disharmony in the ranks, disrespecting his team mates & manager" etc etc etc

What the club haven't realised is just how pathetic their statement makes Wenger look. Sanchez is too difficult for Arsene to handle? He wants to win too much? Awww diddums. Yeah, we best get rid and replace him with a bunch more awful yes-men such as Eboue, Gervinho, Ramsey, Denilson etc who will never have the balls to actually win anything but can't believe their luck to be playing for The Arsenal and receiving £100 a week,
It's not often that we can say Arsenal have one of the best players in the world, that any other club on the planet would give their right arm to sign. But we do right now, and not only are we failing to do everything possible to keep him, we're actively driving him out of the club to spare the blushes of our dinosaur manager who has been entirely useless and incompetent for a decade.
This has pissed me right off.
