It's just that we're no longer considered Manchester United, but rather a club in the same city as Pep's golden boys. Who cares that we've 70 years of history and are spending a bit to win titles, when Pep's holier than thou philosophy is being followed by a club that has never spent more than 600000000 a season.Being a faceless drone in the corporate 'project' takeover of world football must be an enticing prospect compared to joining the club of the Babes, Best, Busby, Ferguson, Cantona, Robson, Giggs etc etc.
Is there any possibility that he could start tomorrow if we sign him early? 
He has definitely played on the right for Arsenal before. What's more he played there very frequently for Barcelona. He's very versatile. I don't think it matters too much where we play him, he'll be excellent regardless.
It would be a medal like the one Roy Keane and Scholes got in the CL final. City will win that title without him, they have done the hard work already, what joy is that to a player? The medal would mean nothing to him.
I think of how many times he bought players we were after at his first stint at Chelsea. Then there was Willian when he was going Liverpool.
It’s like a double whammy for the opposition, like a psychological hit that says yes we can match you head on if we want to.
Left, right?
Worth reminding you that Arsenal have finished above United for the last four seasons. Not saying this to wind anyone up BTW just worth noting that whilst he has undoubtedly been an excellent player for the club he has not really improved it. United have a better squad than Arsenal but him alone does not take you guys to the next level, just IMO.
No. Paperwork takes at least a day to clear.Is there any possibility that he could start tomorrow if we sign him early?
I still haven't got to grips with this yet. It feels kind of surreal. If you'd come and said at the beginning of the month that Sanchez might be playing for United before the month is over you would be called crazy. I guess it will all be wrapped up in the next couple of days.
I think he has to sign before the game week starts in order to be allowed to play.Is there any possibility that he could start tomorrow if we sign him early?
I'm of and on the phone and PC all day. My missus recognized the page and asked why am I there. I needed to explain what's happening.
We're watching a series now but I grab my phone every 5 minutes.
Hahahaha... Its been really funny to watch, she hasn't spoken to me in over two hours and just looks away and walks past me..
United

Never been as true...
If Wenger gets Mhiki in the Sanchez deal and then gets Aubameyang, it won't be a bad piece of business at all since it will be reuniting Mhiki and Auba who could pose a possible challenge for the title along with Lacazette.
Friends, don't get excited but we're going to win the Champions League.
No. Had to be registered by Friday 4pm to be ready for the weekend.Is there any possibility that he could start tomorrow if we sign him early?
He could do his medical, warm up, sign the contract in the dressing room during the pre game talks and then do the unveiling after playing Stoke.Is there any possibility that he could start tomorrow if we sign him early?
We’ve literally won three major trophies to City’s one over the last two seasons. Not sure I’m too interested in players who move to clubs simply to join the trophy parade, as opposed to wanting to do the hard yards to earn them.
Still think United being decisive and committed here makes a big difference. It was the same with Lukaku. Sanchez has already been let down by City’s dithering once. I’d be swayed by a club doing everything to sign me over one who wants me, but is more concerned by getting maximum value and is leaving me hanging.
Would he be playing for City for peanuts?
I was set on him being a City player, it seemed so inevitable after all the talk in summer and early this month. I didn't even think of him as a transfer target, yet here we are.
Still not fully believing in it until I see official confirmation though
Now, but he may play for Cashews
How much does this matter to a professional athlete though?
Sure, I reckon he wants to win the league, but I reckon he wants to win the league not to join a club thats already won it and pick up a medal just for being there.
I always will remember Roy Keane saying he didn't feel like he earned his Champions League medal in 1999 because he didn't play in the final despite being almost solely responsible for the team being there in the first place.
So yeah, he can go to City and win a medal but there'd always be an asterisks next to it, that might not bother him, but it also might do, we don't know, and next season we all start again from zero points.
Oh my lord Olly
What are the chances of Sanchez pulling an Adebayor in his celebration if he scored on Arsenal?
Think it's kind of high. He's the type of guy to do it

You mean next year right?
this thread is now complete.Arsenal for the title? Nah. Challenge for top four maybe.
We're going to win the league mate.
I put on some latin music while watching this.
That goes without saying, are you familiar with Devon Loch?
Ever heard of Torres?
Nah, we're gonna win the treble
I think he’s pissed off with how City have handled the whole thing with waiting until the final hours of the summer window to agree a fee with Arsenal (subsequently keeping him at the club when he wanted out) to haggling again in this window.
No doubt he would have gone to City but when this window opened and they started messing around again I think he gave the word to look elsewhere.
