Unionjack 7,531 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 IMHO IF we do even try to buy Sanchez it will point to Conte going for us going to a 3-5-2 iafter the summer. Like we have mentioned before Contyes swapped to a 3-5-2 in his 2nd season before. Hed make the perfect partner for Diego but I'm just wondering what that row of 5 would comprise of after 2 WBs. Jst where does Eden fit?? Thats the one thing that makes me say the 3-5-2 is out the question. Unless of course we stick him up front with Diego?? Your thoughts??

Far from impossible signing, fair price, normal wages, he wants to move and above all he is realy realy good player. Payet and Van Dijk would be no brainers if we want to win the league, sure there are Sanchez and others, but chances we land them are unlikely. Does he work hard without the ball? Doesn't that signing displace Willian and Pedro? He's also 30 in March... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyBlue96 990 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Like someone said before in this topic: for Alexis it's either going to be one final try to win something. Win the Premier League at Chelsea or maybe even Citeh or United. And challenge for the UCL. So, he has to consider wether he still has some ambition or not before heading to China or someplace else where he can earn some fat stacks. If we win the League this season, it gives a signal to a player like him that we really are a team and our manager, Conte, is able to win things in this league. Conte is a winner. Who doesn't want to play under such a wonderful man? Compare him to an outdated old fart like Wenger and the choice is obvious. Wenger isn't a winner anymore. Ask Van Persie. If we go for him it will be as second striker, and guessing Griezmann is United bound, I think Sanchez is the perfect striker next to Costa. Would love to see him in blue. And would love to see the gooners go apeshit against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats exactly what I keep asking bud. But 'they' keep saying that we change to a 3 5 2 during the game sometimes and Eden fits behind the 2 strikers. But surely thatsa a 3 4 1 2 There could be many different combinations but one I like is 3 1 4 2 with Cescy behind Matic/N'Golo and Eden with Diego. But I think I like the 3-4-3 better. I suppose it all depends on our shopping list these next 2 windows. 32 minutes ago, BoyBlue96 said: Like someone said before in this topic: for Alexis it's either going to be one final try to win something.

Wengers contract runs out next season so who is going to take over> It worries me that Simeones contract also runs out the same time! 2. Is Conte the sort of manager who buys signature expensive world class players or is it all about buying whoever it is he thinks fits us? Or will Roman have a word in his shell like hinting at buying such n such cause he likes him? I hope but cant honestly see us getting Sanchhez even if he did leave (unless of course we got his countryman Vidal.If we just stick Sule and Dijk with them thats my santas list! Now that would be a team!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Swearing at Ramsey in the 1st half and then fuming after the FT whistle. Looks exactly like me when I'm late for five a side football, teams are already picked and the last spot available is in a team full of tossers that can't string two passes together. Perfect moment now to make our move and turn his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect moment now to make our move and turn his head. Not just that. There were quite a lot of moments proving that he is not really happy in the camp at the moment. Screaming at Giroud after a bad pass even before he got to the ball, upset with other players for not being on the same wavelength. Definitely a cheeky bid would be worth it. Antonio certainly knows how to convince people to join him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Kaplan- 410 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 He likes to cut inside just like Hazard. As others have pointed out, the problem is accommodating these attacking players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's been the lone striker. With Özil feeding him balls it's easy to see why he has scored a lot. We don't play with a lone striker. (4-3-3) Our best assister, Fabregas, isn't a starter. I can only see it happening IF Conte decides to switch to 3-5-2. Big if. Then we risk playing Hazard out of his favored position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyBlue96 990 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Just wanted to post the same about Alexis. A winner. That's what you learn at Barcelona. Arsenal fans celebrate this pathetic draw, and Alexis shows them exactly there is NOTHING to celebrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see him staying in England should he move. Juve seems like the probable destination if they offload a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
