Great jokes, thanks for popping by for the entertainment.
I reckon you'll give Sanchez + £30m for Mkhitaryan though.

They are quoting Chilean outlet El Mercurio
City are not back in until you hear from a solid source that they are back in. Nothing has changed as of yet to where we were last night.
I call bullshit. No one from women's football is well known.
So have City really upped their offer and changed their stance? Wouldn't surprise me if they have. Hope it doesn't come off, but it's a beyond a bit strange for them to be super concerned about money when he'd be a great signing for them.
its 8:20 pm....where else should i be during a transfer saga?
Nothing new since yesterday and a few useless "sources" immediately start fabricating news of twists and turns in the transfer to generate clicks and draw attention.
Mkhitaryan using the word 'enthralled' would be the first example of flair by him since August.
Sanchez is ours ! Bookmakers pricing in 85%, unless he pulls out another Griezman-like-thingy !

Or we'll give them Mkhi and Mata for Sanchez and Ozil. Arsenal are anyway going to lose these players for free in the summer
I suspect it will be Sanchez's decision now rather than Arsenal's. If a club offers more to Arsenal he can still say no to them. Arsenal would then have to accept the offer from the club he does want to go to, or wait until May and get nothing.
They were never out.
This
Could we not subsidise Mkhi's wages to pave the way for the move?
Unlike Mkhi to feck up a promising move...
If we can get two very good seasons out of him for 30m, I'll be happy. The gap between us and city I consider as pretty huge from an attacking sense, he alone will bridge quite a bit of it I feel. In those two years we can then build on that with some younger players too. If we were to get Ozil in the summer for free too a supporting cast of Martial, Sanchez, Ozil to our striker looks world class. There will likely still be a gap to city in an attacking sense but it won't be the massive gulf it is right now.
I dont think there's much wrong with this post, the guy is talking about it from an Arsenal perspective.
The first bit - he'd give Sanchez plus £30m for Martial. Good shout, he is only recognising what a talent Martial is.
Confident Wenger can develop him. Why not? Wenger has done well developing young players, and there is the French connection.
Sanchez arriving could limit Martial's opportunities. This is a (small) concern. Sanchez likes to start on the left hand side, so they will be competing for the same position to some extent. (Of course Mourinho will also look for ways to play them together.)
The only bit I disagree with is that it would be best for all parties. It would be great for Arsenal. It may well be quite good for Martial as well - he would definitely, definitely play more, for a manager more inclined to trust young players. The party it wouldnt be better for is Manchester United. So almost certainly wont happen. Still, you can see why an Arsenal fan would hope.
I do not blame you for calling bullshit, I would say the same. It’s true unfortunately.
Whom are you asking?
Not the first time Mkhitaryan would have messed up one of our moves
Most important line there...
"Despite that doubt, El Mercurio say ‘everything indicates’ Alexis Sanchez will become a Red Devil."
Just like Pogba/Madrid, and Lukaku/Chelsea, it wouldn’t be a true saga unless we were all going into meltdown even when he is 90% ours.
For what it’s worth, I’m one of the ones in meltdown. Terrified that City will come back in for him.

David McDonnell with the same MEN story
English journalism trying to put some suspense on the deal before it's done ? Exactly what you'll expect from such terrible journalists. You lot did knew feck all before Di Marzio broke the news. You just jumped in the job to appear to be trustful.
I think Arsenal would prefer to get Malcolm rather than Mhiki, so once they've sorted that out, they'll let Sanchez leave.
Lets hope, just for once, they don't spend 2 weeks "preparing an offer" and just get it done. They are worse than us in letting proposed transfers drag on.

Edit. Lazy Mkhitaryan joke - deleted because NinjaFletch made it better above.
Why would Martial want to leave United to join Arsenal? Their only two world class players are on the brink of leaving. Their only other potentially good player is Wilshere and he is persistently injured and also available on a free. They are a club on the decline with a hilariously bad lack of investment and ambition from the board, and with a manager who dictates when he will leave and is too stubborn to change.
Talk of Martial moving to Arsenal would be for pure financial reasons, which is ironic for two reasons. One, Martial would demand high wages. Ironic given it is a an unwillingness to pay high wages and spend which has put Arsenal in this ridiculous and embarrassing situation. The second reason, is the quite frankly ridiculous, and incorrect notion put forward by journalists that Sanchez is moving for money, but not a word about a Martial move to Arsenal which would be wholly due to financial incentive!

Cant blame Mikhi for not wanting to go to Arsenal. Who would want that move?
Cocks in?
I'd rather we just gave them the cash.
City get exposed as having a shite defence.......OMG GOT GO BUY SANCHEZ!!!!
This is the same shite that comes out just before a transfer is about to be confirmed to get the last few clicks off neurotics. He’s coming to United.
