Yeah. One of the hard bastard in the team, and can play in right back as well. I also want to see how he perform in not so rigid position, as he does with Equador.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

Probably I had all the details a while ago but I can't remember it all.
They have had CL football for the first time since in half a decade. They have not won their domestic title in nearly 25 years. One season in the CL won't suddenly make them more alluring than us.
Players will move for two reasosn - 1) money and 2) chances of success. I'd suspect they look at the latter long term rather than the upcoming season. Liverpool as an example may attract players in the CL this year - but even ignoring the obvious wage issues, the top players will look at the resources of the club overall and whether the club is likely to be able to compete in the CL regularly.
If he really is available for 20M, I can think of no one better to fill our RW/RF slot, especially for that price.
I hope LVG fancies him.
Have a feeling that Nani and Sanchez will be playing for either United or Juventus next season, one at each team. Can't say which of these will play where.
That's not what I was implying. Someone said he couldn't see Sanchez joining Liverpool, but like us, if Liverpool offered above the valuation that Barcelona have set, so say 25 million euros they'd stand a very good chance of acquiring Sanchez, due to that price being seemingly non-negotiable at Juve. I think we would be a more alluring destination for him, but we've seen how influential the Champions League can be on a players decision and many players look at things from a short-term perspective, so they may opt for Liverpool ahead of us.
If he's going to cost £20-25 million, then that's a steal. Versatile forward, entering the peak of his career and apparently available at a great price. Hopefully this is a rumour that comes true and we get it done quickly.
It'd be a fantastic signing if we can get him.
I'd like to see him as a really hard to get striker. Imagine him, Rooney, and Mata... oh my. Probably the most deadly combination you could find. Them together must be more deadly than Messi.
Any examples which you can refer to where a player chose a club because it had CL football?
Personnally i've never seen a player choose a club because of CL football, but a lot of player have quit a club because of lack of CL football.
I'm getting wood thinking about this transfer, destined not to happen.

With Sanchez, Mata and Januzaj constantly interchanging positions = Sexiness
He'll be focused on the World Cup for the next few weeks, if he impresses then he'll go to a team that's currently better than us.
Even if he doesn't impress he's done enough with Barca this season to show that he belongs in the elite European competition.
If we haven't submitted a bid for him yet then I have to ask why that is?
This is a bad argument.
Hopefully the fact you have Januzaj means the same.
If Sanchez leaves, then it's for more than £20m I would expect.

If there's one thing i'm looking forward to under LVG, it's being a danger from wide areas again. The last few years have been lacklustre to say the least.
Do it do it do it do it!
This is a bad argument.

The difference is that £20m is a big outlay and a large part of your funds.
How is that an argument? It is just an opinion and you purely just dismiss it as bad. Well done.
So is it AlexisOn?
This. But he'd need to sign someone not even his magic would work with Young and Valencia.
Hopefully the fact you have Januzaj means the same.
Januzaj is a no 10, Sterling is a winger, not quite the same
And Sterling style of cutting in, tricky and fast isn't too distant from Sanchez, Januzaj isn't the same player in styles.Januzaj is a no 10, Sterling is a winger, not quite the same
I was being slightly facetious. Januzaj will not be a number 10 for youse while Mata and Kagawa are there.
All we heard all season was that we need a bigger squad, yet when we attempt to spend to bring in a player (I'm not talking about only Sanchez here as I doubt we'll get him) the "Liverpool need defenders!" argument gets thrown about.
my interpretation is if news of being a bid made by MUFC is coming from Turin where Juventus is based, they're trying to plant stories to take some attention off them. wouldn' be surprised if they are interested in signing him
to be even more facetious both players can play across the final third. they're not necessarily the same style but they are both flexible in their attacking attributesJanuzaj is a no 10, Sterling is a winger, not quite the same

I know exactly what you are saying and I was only saying it light heartedly, and I think t's more the way people word themselves, when they say pool should focus defenders, they should, however it doesn't mean they shouldn't pursue talent such as Sanchéz, merely that it can't detract from the main goal which for you, should be defence, like us CM.Wasn't the point though mate, the comment was made that because we have a no 10, we won't need a winger, I think it was made tongue in cheek though, I was only playing with him
AlexITS S'ONchez
You'd be daft not to be in for him tbf. Sterling, Sanchez, Sturridge and Suarez is one hell of a front 4. So what if this opportunity presents itself before or after you sign a defender? Your fans are quite rightly expecting you to build on your success this summer with a big name or two.
that said, i want him here so nerrrr.
They are, it's no secret.
right good move by them then
We have a winner.
Juve are in for him. His agent could be planting rumours to push the Juve wages offer up.
We can surely outbid Juve?
