I think Mhiki's value's included in the 35m. Probably £15-20m plus Mhiki.

I don't know. Twitter is a brutal place.
What's his basis for the deal not happening?
I remain convinced that City will match any bid and Sanchez will go there.
This. Woody has shown ruthlessness in the transfer market since that first summer. I must say he has done a great job and he isn't one to be messed with these days.
its not gonna happen is it 
FFS, calm down. I wasn’t disputing our standing as a club but highlighting that standing doesn’t guarantee a league title, which I feel City will win this season and AS would be part of that if he went there.

Nope sorry sosolid4u
No idea sorry, I dont know the broader context of that particular comment. I just occasionally check ArsenalFanTV when Arsenal have an awful result because I know DT's reaction will be entertaining. Though also quite predictable, generally.
My friend in New York telling me the media spin for United is all positive over there. Seems our PR for Europe dept sucks as I've not read anything great about us in about a year! I'm surprised the club are allowing open attacks at the brand like I've seen live on Sky.
I just want this deal to happen to see DT's bake. Hope he cry wanks himself into the next week over it.
Hacks like John Cross are the biggest joke going. Doesn't know if a player is coming or going so spins bulls*t.
So are you suggesting I should only follow UniteSeriously now, you should really be asking yourself a question. Why are you a manchester united fan? Following that logic, you should be a manchester city fan since they are winning everything also.
If you want to talk about this subject purely from its materialistic POV, by joining Manchester United, AS is getting exposure to the millions and millions of its fan base around the globe.
Furthermore, where is the glory in going to city and just being handed the title without any effort? in united, AS should work his ars of to get it and the satisfaction he'll get from this will be unparalelled.
Anyway, i think this is too serious for this thread now

Evening Standard says 'Manchester United close in on Alexis Sanchez transfer as Arsenal hope to include Anthony Martial as part of deal'. I wouldnt even do a straight swap. Martial has so much more to offer.
So let me get this straight, we are offering £35m plus Mickhi....surely that can't be right?
Isn't Mickhi worth £30m or is the deal a straight swap? #confused

You really think a guy like Sanchez will take huge pride in winning a league already won?
Nothing is guaranteed. A few months ago Guardiola finished a season trophyless with some ridiculous analysts considering him to found out. When you're investing the sort of money City and United are a lot can change very quickly. They're not this Utopian club that we can't hold a candle to as the media are making out.
I don't have privileges to embedd yet, but M.E.N. are now reporting of a breakthrough and that a deal for Alexis can be completed today. Joke of journalists 
It's only right we pay more if we want them to suffer the pain of putting up with Mickhi.
Dead in the water.
I'll laugh my tits off if Martial goes to Arsenal in this deal
VRodriguezlaw is a fake.
Announcement held back until tomorrow.
Swapping Martial + cash for Sanchez is madness.
No way Woodward / Mourinho will agree to this deal.

Not sure if I have had too much caffeine, but is this thread kind of bouncing? As in, actually bouncing?
I will stab somebody.
There's more chance of me signing for City.
Shit source, bullshitter
That last part of your comment made little to no sense. Why would we sell Martial to you, if we believe that he will full fill his potential and become a player even better than Sanchez was at his best. Saying that he's not that far from that level now and he's currently one of our best players. There is no need for United to offer Martial in this deal, as Arsenal have very little leeway to negotiate due to Sanchez's contract situation.
On your comment about if United had offered Martial, Sanchez would already be United player, we don't know that. United have already made it clear that they are willing to match Arsenal's financial demands (reportedly around £35m) and there's nothing to suggest that what's holding up the deal isn't Sanchez and his agent trying to get City to pay up. Also, it's not a very good point as Sanchez would also have been a City player last summer had they agreed to Arsenal's demands and offered Aguero or Sterling in return. But, that would have been silly from City and, if anything, it's Arsenal's refusal to sell last summer for a very reasonable fee that has resulted in this situation taking place right now.
Yeah naturally that could be the case. But unfortunately from a fans perspective, we wouldn't know if this is all BS to sell stories or whether City are actually going to make a move again. Similar things happened with Vidal as well, with most thinking his move to United was a done deal (Di Marzio was on the case as well if I remember correctly).
He is a nobody who pretends to be a FIFA agent I think
Everyone get a grip! It's happening.
It's happening.Soo, no progress today huh?
might be time to lock this for some time, it seems?
Don't really understand the idiot part (If you're adressing me you are quite ignorant) but anyhow I didn't disagree with your opinion but its not 100% true.
According to?
Uhmm... Mourinho himself said that he will be in the squad and may even be playing.
For me, this crap of a swap deal plus cash is just that, crap. Never have I thought Mkhi will be part of this deal.
