Considering he's struggled to get into matchday squads for a good portion of his time here, it's not a ridiculous valuation.

He's technically right. Only £24m left our coffers.
Anyone else feel like he is instantly going to get cult like status amongst us? He feels like a symbol against everything that is anti-United. Can't wait to see him play now. Wish I had a ticket for Friday!
Let me ask my son about that - I will get back to you in season 2
Because a Sanchez is his last few months of a contract is worth more than fecking double as Mhki with 2 years left imo. feck the contracts, he's twice the player.
Ah but they refused to sell us Debuchy. They really got one over on us there...
No he isn’t. To say he’s right is to ignore the fact that Mkhitaryan clearly has a value, especially in this market.
Blame Wenger for not accepting an unbelievable £60m during August for a player with a year left on his contract, someone who was never gonna extend with Arsenal, someone who's basically downed tools this season unless I'm mistaken (I don't watch Arsenal). What was the point in keeping an unhappy player until now?
Yes he is, we only spent £24m in cash.
Don't forgot they saved us the hassle of Vermealen....who played what? 1 game for Barca?
So does Sanchez.
He really does not like Balaque.I really Mpathise with Arsenal fans.
Mkhi is a £30m player in this market imo. Sanchez is an £80m player with a normal contract but once a player goes under a year it always goes down massively.
He's probably embarrassed that he basically has the same job as him when it comes to Sky. Hell, Red Nev isn't introduced as 'English football expert' whenever he appears on the TV.
Who does like Ballbag, he is a little rat face troll
A mate who does motorway maintenance on the M6 just sent me this after he finished his shift. Sanchez in his Bentley steaming up the M6 this morning.
Just for you.
I thought you were on his side, he only needs an orangy yellow banner to honour mikis country
Finally I can unzip in peace

I think Wenger didn't sell to City last summer was because he didn't have time to find a replacement.
It's City's fault they made the bid only at the last minute. Reckon Wenger would have sold if they had bid at a sensible time.

Imagine passing on £60m (almost twice the previous record for a player with 1 year left on his contract) and ending up with just Mkhi a few months later. They could have bought Auba or almost anyone with that money. Sad!That’s the worst part of it
You’ve got some serious competition there @Olly .

Finally a real sighting today.
Tell me about it!
Yea it is a bit ridiculous, we swapped Mkhi for Sanchez. Mkhi had 2.5 years left on his contract, his marketprice is surely around £35m, so we paid £35m (or whatever you would value Mkhi at) for Sanchez and not 0£. On top of that It seems that we had to also buy out Mkhi's contract to get him to agree to switch to Arsenal. I don't know what his salary is but I've been reading amounts between 140k and 200k per week so if it is true we bought his 2.5 year contract out than that would have cost us somewhere between £18m-£26m. That is not taking into account whatever amount we agreed to pay Sanchez as a signing fee, it is not taking into account how much money we are paying to Felicevich (Sanchez is agent) and it is also possible we are paying something to Railoa to make this swap deal happen. All that ofcourse on top of making Sanchez one of the best paid players in the world (his salary will be huge).
This deal is an absolute steal but to say we are getting Sanchez for free is really ridiculous.
Exactly. We've lost an asset worth at least £25m in the current market, even if the Sanchez signing on fee is £10m, plus £10m for the agent, it's cost the club £45m minimum. Still a good deal, but not 'free'.
Bad business! Worst deal ever.
I did it as a joke, and now I can't remove it from my profile

ugh... he is a middle lane hoggerA mate who does motorway maintenance on the M6 just sent me this after he finished his shift. Sanchez in his Bentley steaming up the M6 this morning.
That is how Balaque is introduced? Deary me, why?
Jesus we must be paying him well if he can afford a Bentley flying car, they're not out for another 20 years.A mate who does motorway maintenance on the M6 just sent me this after he finished his shift. Sanchez in his Bentley steaming up the M6 this morning.
And what are you valuing Sanchez at?
We're finally getting a few hours break from the media hysteria and now Neil Ashton and co are stopping by here also.
