Yep. Put it this way, we have our equivalent of Hazard now. I would argue that with Sanchez, our squad is actually better than Chelsea's, while as of now, I'd say we are just a little behind them mainly due to Hazard, despite being a point ahead.
Outfield player. Zlatan was great but had weaknesses due to age. Pogba is the other way round. At times sensational but has to prove he can make the step up to elite. Sanchez is already there and genuinely one of the very best.

Tottally forgot Arsenal weren't in CL.
Alexis Sanchez and Ozil (as much I don't really like the german) for peanuts and able to play Champions League. That would be amazing.
You're getting this deal done by blowing city out of the water financially. It's poetic
Maybe you should fax your concerns to Ed Woodward.
Yes. Our hazard would be apt. And yeah I'd put our team ahead of theirs if this goes through. Wasn't much much between the two squads anyway.
This aint happening. Come on.
Why would City buy Sanchez, they are already scoring 4-5 goals per game, are they trying to score more? And Alexis aint no spring chicken either. They only did it so we don't get a chance to sign him. Dirty oily bast3rds, oil is running low soon, lets see how will you be spending yer dirty money bitches.
What concerns? I'm loving this. Massive feck you to a state-owned club. Hopefully the fax machine works this time
I feel Utd are in that moment where we simply cannot fail in our bid to lure Sanchez. He is a top top player who players in the very area of the team where we have been struggling. He can take us to a higher level that means we will be able to compete next season. There are not that many players of this calibre who are available, also in the summer in a world cup year. If we manager to get him in, it gets us closer to the level of City and means we can compete next season. Failure to get him, and if he ends up at City means they will be even farther away than they are now, which is scary.
Come on, watch the press conference. It's obviously clear that he was referring to Alexis.
i know right!!No.
making me feel i need to get registered nurse soonI jizzed.Lukaku
Martial-Dybala-Sanchez
Pogba-Matic
Imagine that
The current Herrera sticks out like a sore thumb in that team. Hoping Lingard can play a central role.
Whoa whoa whoa hold on there. Sanchez is still an Arsenal player isn't he?
Talk like this is getting extremely ahead of yourself!
That’s just your interpretation if it, fair game but José never directly said it and said so generically.
I hate the transfer window, but i've been hooked. Lukaku came out of nowhere, and there was that picture of Matic that got leaked the day before he signed. There have been some nice surprises
You do have a point lol ...I’m leaving this up as a possibility but maybe at 5%, even at that I’m cutting it a bit of slack
Not sure Jose would like Sanchez as a 10, now that I think about it. He didn't like Hazard there, and they're similar players, in terms of the two players liking to dribble.
A free role in one of the wide areas would probably be more realistic.

This for me is perfect with the front 3 interchanging. Lukaku has a bit of experience cutting in from RW doesn't he? The midfield and defence is great too, maybe a replacement for Herrera unless he refinds his form.
Gary killing it on twitter
You're in denial. Just accept it. We're trying to sign Sanchez.That’s just your interpretation if it, fair game but José never directly said it and said so generically.

Our sponsorship with casillero del diablo's going to swing this one, they better put roasted guinea pig on the menu at the Lowry, he's coming.
Well he was directly asked about Sanchez. Who else would he be talking about?
And he indirectly responded about players/transfers in general as he wasn’t willing to talk about another teams player.
That’s like me saying he was directly asked about Sanchez and replied by saying United won’t sign him in the January window as who else was he talking about? See, 2 can play that game
Maybe but I think it’s just José being José (not a yes nor a no) and nothing else
Are they from Chile?
Are you in denial? He did say the part about signing players in January while talking about Sanchez, you claim he didn't. Also context is a nice thing.
99% of footballers want to play for MUFC, the other 1% are liars........
I have a cheeky feeling we are going to get him.
Would mean we FINALLY have a world class attacker since 2013 RVP.

Neither Ibra or Pogba are wide players - I was talking about us not having had a world-class wide player since Ronnie.

Once again you conveniently leave out the part where he said "however, should a certain player be available then you have to try whether it's in January, March or July."
City forum already started down playing Sanchez's ability, like we even have a chance of this lol.
I'm sure you're trying to just defend yourself, many muppets have been stung before. But we're all in on this, and trying to make it sound like "you're the special guy because you don't believe it" is silly. We might not win the race, but we definitely want him. Have faith.
Definitely an argument to be made re Ibra's form up until the EFL cup final last season being world class.
And I'm extending it to outfield players. He's that good.
A lot of people saying we need to invest in younger players. But, our forward squad is full of young talent - Rashford, Martial and even Lukaku is just 24. What we need is an experienced winner who can bulldoze his way through the opposition and take us over the line. And a player like Sanchez is exactly that. Add Ozil to that team and there is talent oozing through that forward line which we have been crying out for
Also, people need to remember that we haven't won the PL for 4 years now (5 if we include 2017-18, since City are so ahead). In a league where every team has enough money, it doesn't take long for a club to decline if they don't regularly win trophies. Look what a laughing stock Arsenal and Pool have become. We do need to win the league in the next 1-2 years and players like Sanchez/Ozil will help that. They are PL proven and at such low prices are no-brainers to atleast make an attempt to sign

After that press-conference I'm convinced something big is going on. I was so sure his transfer to City was a done deal. Hope we get him, fantastic player!
