Its about this time that bullshit artists like Delaney pops up on the back of where the winds blowing.
I give it 20 minutes.
 
Sanchez is a very good player but I am sick and tired of signing players older than 25. Sign for the future. Build it up like Sir Matt and Sir Alex. Learn how to get success from the past and sign Pulisic, Dybala and a Robson/Keane midfielder. Get Tuanzebe in the team and bring back TFM. LUHG

Evra vidic keane cole ronaldo ole schmikes etc were bought as well.

This is a joke, right?

I understand your point as younger players have potential to be better, but we signed Eric Cantona when he was 26 (IIRC) and RVP at the end of his career, and it didn't hurt us. I think we need both young and older players in the team too
 
Papers should make good reading tomorrow with our new number 7 then :drool:
The backpage will either be plastered with how 'huge' his wages are or there will be a small column in the advertising section that says something along the lines of 'S signs for M'
 
I have read some negative comments about this deal, which suggests that in every party, there will always be some party poopers.

We have enough slack from people on the outside, now we are getting the flak from our own fans. It just makes me mad.
 
Depends on the transfer. For stuff involving Raiola, Di Marzio has the edge and updates more frequently.

Agree, also talking about this case. Since it's Mhki/Raiola being a key Di Marzio is far more reliable. Remember when he broke the story, Ornstein that very same day denied the whole thing saying nothing has changed and Sanchez is set for City which was a little bit weird considering how close he is to Arsenal.
 


Not the best source but my Arsenal supporting friends consider this as one of the best sources for Arsenal transfer news
 
Straight from the horses mouth.
What are your Liverpool supporting mates saying about the matter?

Why would I have Liverpool supporting friends! The only reason I have Arsenal supporting friends is so that I can mock them after their defeats and rile them up by supporting Wenger

I have arsenal and Liverpool supporting mates so I can mock them in almost equal measure.
 
Seems strange to conclude the deal on a busy day of Premier League football.

I thought Ed and the marketing department would have wanted it done on say a Friday or Monday, so it was the focal news.

Love United Hate Glazidis? well, yeah, that's why Sanchez is joining us in the first place
 
Keane 22 Ronnie 18 Cole 24 Ole 23 Schmikes (goalkeeper and good signing at 28 or whatever). Evra I think was 25 and Vida maybe 26. Don't get it. Sign young players I said

It's all about the blend, we needed someone with guile. That usually increases with experience. Our blend is really good now.
 
I mean we've signed Linedlöf, Bailly, Pogba, and Lukaku in the last two years. All under 25. Ibra, Miki, and Matić over 25. Sanchez would make it 50/50.
 
Nice day to start my new job at Mcr Airport today, will keep my eyes peeled for internal flights but as yet no press or media are here

Pogba 23
Lukaku 24
Bailly 23

Going further back Martial, Depay, Shaw, all signed relatively young.

I certainly know what you mean and I partially agree with that. Let's look at our team right now:

DeGea (27)
Bailly (23)
Lindelöf (23)
Jones (still 25, been thinking the whole time this dude is at least 30)
Rojo (27)
Shaw (22)
Matic (29)
Pogba (24)
Martial (22)
Lingard(25)
Lukaku (24)
Rashford (20!)

Thats a young and solid spine. Matic can certainly be relevant for the DM-position for another 2-3 seasons. I intentionally left out older players like Herrera, Smalling and Mata because, according to the Caf, players are finished when older than 26. I'm 100% sure that we are monitoring the situation regarding Pulisic, but he's too young and inexperienced to make the RW his own at United at this level. Buy him next year or in two years and let him develop behind Sanchez or whoever plays on the right for us. We won't get far in the Champions League with young and hungry players only. There needs to be a certain amount of experience guiding these young players, hence why we're going to buy Sanchez. His attitude and workrate is perfect for a Mourinho team, too.

Happy Sanchezter Day!

I can agree with that but still think that we should go for Pulisic and Dybala. If we can afford Sanchez aswell then brilliant
What about our young players like Martial, Lukaku, and Rashford that we already have? Bin them?
