Alexis Sanchez | Done deal

[Hellboy]

no way Arsenal are selling to their local rival, just the press desperate to milk this after Citeh pulled out, they're going for Andy fecking Caroll

 

[Kraftwerker]

More confident of seeing off Chelsea than City.

 

[Random Task]

Conte doesnt manage the transfers at Chelsea.. Certainly not a big money transfer like this.

He doesn't even get a say in this?

 

[Oscie]

Mourinho will practically announce this post-match.

Watch.

"I hear Chelsea are bidding, maybe they stitch us up like some people have to stitch on their hair but I am not worried...."

 

[shaky]

Doom merchant here.

Sanchez might prefer living in London. One could also argue Chelsea are at the same level as us, only 3 pts behind in the league. And they have won the league twice more than us in the last 5 years. Don't rule them out I say!

Chelsea are too much of an uncertainty. Hazard's probably bolting in the summer. Courtois possibly. Conte too. They could be a mess next season.

 

[duffer]

Of course it will. Conte will at the very least have to approve the deal.

Conte's involvement in our transfers is being told who we're signing. He'd probably never heard of Ross Barclay.

 

[Kevin]

He'll go Chelsea, mark my words.

if he goes to Chelsea I get banned. If he goes to us you get banned. Come on, you sound so sure. Fed up with these insecure people.

Ban worthy.

 

[royboy16]

Money vs Money now

usa v mother russia.

 

[davidmichael]

NBC SN said the Chelsea link came from Manchester Evening News so I’d say City have put that out there, surely Law would have heard before M.E.N if Chelsea were in for Sanchez ?

 

[JohnZSmith27]

Sky now reporting Chelsea are interested in signing him. Feck off, Chelsea ffs.

 

[kps88]

One of the best players in the league so no surprise everyone's having a go.

 

[Rajma]

Sky are reactors, never lead any story.

Because they know shit at all and now trying to look smart.

 

[Camilo]

Conte doesnt manage the transfers at Chelsea.. Certainly not a big money transfer like this.

They've been a bit "sleeping giant" in the transfer market for a while now though - I'd be surprised if they weren't genuinely interested..

 

[Rado_N]

@golden_blunder @Damien @Rado_N

I almost want Chelsea to sign him now.

 

[rotherham_red]

We went for Di Maria instead. Which to be fair seemed the better option at the time, as he'd been better for Real Madrid than Sanchez had for Barca.

He wanted Champions League footy and his wife wanted London. It was never going to happen in 2014 unfortunately

 

[el3mel]

It seems City are the ones briefing Chelsea entered the race ?

 

[RDCR07]

What did Lawton say?

No word from Chelsea on this issue.

 

[Sied]

Pfft, He's no Andy Carroll. Do not want.

 

[dove]

No chance he would go to Chelsea and I don't think they are even interested. It's just like with Lukaku, a day prior to us officially signing him Chelsea were supposedly trying to hijack a deal...

 

[Mainoldo]

Oh no not Chelsea lol. What’s the new media debate now? Join the Champions or Jose’s boring mob. Maybe it will be live in London or live in Manchester debate.

 

[Crackers]

It seems City are the ones briefing Chelsea entered the race ?

They're hoping to up the price United pay?

 

[Judas]

He's not going to Chelsea.

 

[charlenefan]

Anyone who was posting in this thread while the game was on hang your head in shame

 

[Buchan]

"I hear Chelsea are bidding, maybe they stitch us up like some people have to stitch on their hair but I am not worried...."

 

[Moonred]

Oracles of doom have shifted their conviction to Chelsea from City. Oh ye of little faith.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Another reason he might be swayed to go to Chelsea. Pedro and Fabregas.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

"I hear Chelsea are bidding, maybe they stitch us up like some people have to stitch on their hair but I am not worried...."

"Relax Manchester United fans, Sanchez is coming, keep your hair on"

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

If Sanchez was on a contract, you either pay 90M for him or you don’t get him at all. No matter what happens, we get a player much cheaper than what we would have if he had a normal contract. He is world-class and a match-winner, something we have lacked for many years.

Didn't answer my question, but fair enough.

 

[Judas]

Another reason he might be swayed to go to Chelsea. Pedro and Fabregas.

I'm sure he's a big boy capable of making new friends.

 

[Sandikan]

He'll go Chelsea, mark my words.

That's quite a statement coming from.. a guy I can't remember ever seeing a post from

Chelsea were still trying to get involved with Lukaku when it was already done

 

[C'est Moi Cantona]

All feels a bit dirty now this, not too arsed either way.

 

[el3mel]

They're hoping to up the price United pay?

Won't surprise me. Matt Law knows nothing Ornstein saying City are the ones "thinking" Chelsea are rivaling us, so the news are from City.

 

[Ban]

Another reason he might be swayed to go to Chelsea. Pedro and Fabregas.

What about them?

 

[ChaddyP]

Sounds like city leaking trash out of spite

 

[MrPooni]

The Proto-Muppet has spoken.

 

[TheReligion]

Sanchez will be mad to pick Chelsea.

Looks alot of fun to play with our forwards. Number 7 is vacant and a nice change of scenery to the biggest club in the country and one of the biggest in the world.

 

[bosnian_red]

City leaking Chelsea interest to try and make us pay more since they can't get him now. Probably. Seems petty, doubt it's real.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

His dogs will probably eat better than me!

 

[SirAF]

feck Chelsea He's coming!
