Rumoured Alexis Sanchez

[akgw13 867]

What a perfect win now move. We always talk about age and cost etc and I agree, if possible you buy the 24 year old who could be a superstar but sometimes when a player in his prime comes along you just have to snap him up.

I pray we keep hazard because adding Sanchez with Eden Hazard is truly a terrifying prospect, doesnt even matter who the striker is be it Costa/Lukaku/Morata/Belotti all would add something different but having 2/3 who would compliment each other perfectly is a pretty damn good start.

Conte wants to win, win big, and win now. This move sends a signal to everyone that we are here to cause some problems. Lets hope it gets done!

This Italian journalist's words have been twisted, he did said that the Lukaku deal is close, but what he said about Sanchez is that according to the english media Sanchez will play for us, not according to him, although he did said that we are planning a huge summer!

So freaking excited

Fun fact: Sanchez is from Chile, but did you know, Chile are more known for their fish than their sportsmen? That's right, nowhere else in the world can you get such a collection to choose from in regards to fish. There's all kinds. 

But there's more.

Despite these vast reserves, it is Portugal who are said to cook fish the best. Who knows how they got that claim; they just salt the fish then fry it like any old fish, but it is known. If you go to a restaurant, and you ask for fish done Portuguese style, they'll know. They'll do it. And you'll know it's only better than regular fish due to marketing. 

All of this can be applied to football. Our players are the fish, and our clubs are the boats. Let's make sure we only pick those with the perfect meat for our pots, and not fall for the beautiful scales.

How high are you?

As a mad keen angler I would go anywhere to catch a fish. But edible fish - best in world is Australia mate. Ive tried to get visas there 3 times now but oh well.

But I get the analogy with beautiful scales. I call them shirt sellers. Like Pog over Konte

I'd love to smoke a bowl or ten with you.

Tbh I would would like to see Hazard-Sanchez-Bernardo Silva. Sanchez works best as a 9 imo, he doesn't have the best link up play for a winger, but more than enough for a striker. I think that's a better front three than Hazard-Lukaku-Sanchez

While the interplay between thsoe 3 would be beautiful, i dont think Sanchez is a pure 9, i think he would work out better as a secondary striker or a wide forward.

But i still mantain, that we would be better served going after Bernardo Silva,who is six years younger than Alexis, than trying for Alexis( whom i very much doubt we will sign, given Arsenal's refusal to sell)

The fish are probably just as racist as the folk on dry land

Never forget that, according to The Oxford Encyclopedia of Underwater Life, "There is no such thing as a fish"!

This thread is getting realy fishy...

I think we've tipped the scales of what a balanced thread should be.

Alexis Sanchez reportedly ‘very close’ to joining Manchester City ahead of Chelsea

Radio Cooperativa report that Sanchez has already decided that this will be his final season with Arsenal, while City are prepared to pay their Premier League rivals a £50million transfer fee

It’s also claimed that Pep Guardiola has asked the 28-year-old to join him at the Etihad Stadium, and the club are willing to offer the Chile international a contract worth £200,000 a week.

Radio Cooperativa also report that Sanchez will link up with his Chile team-mate Claudio Bravo at City, despite rumours suggesting that the goalkeeper will be sold after his unconvincing debut season in the Premier League.

Aguero, Jesus, Sané, Silva, Sterling, De Bruyne...why the fuck would City need Sanchez? They'll already struggle to play all of the attacking players they have.

Even if Aguero goes they wouldn't have a place for him.

Sanchez; Silva; De Bruyne
