Ahem Arsenal had better watch their back with Reiss Nelson. He is good friends with Jadon Sancho who went to Dortmund and with his contract winding down .... Welllllll

So after all the initial gragra (IG, that na Owerri slang!) all the useless media outfits made this morning, nothing is yet to happen in regards to Sanchez.

Are you surprised ? Its the Arsenal way of doing things, dont blame media or the buying club - na our way. We simply should have taken 60 M for him in August and city would still be ahead of us .Nkume wrote:So after all the initial gragra (IG, that na Owerri slang!) all the useless media outfits made this morning, nothing is yet to happen in regards to Sanchez.

Why would he not want to play for Arsenal? As usual this is about money. The player is on humongous wages. Arsenal will not give him that type of wage. Then add the greed of his Agent. Sorry, what has he done in this league? He must drop his wage demands. Arsenal must not touch rubbish like this.Chief Ogbunigwe wrote:We are all speculating here but I dont see this as straightforwad as you write - What if Mikki's agent wants 10Million for the "swap" so in essence its it ging to cost us $10 Million, plus Mikki really may not want to play for Arsenal. ?Siddonlook11 wrote:Sanchez has 6 months left on his contract, so we are trading on a 6 months deals for a 29 year old player. Mkhitaryan has 2.6 month left on his contract and at 26 is a younger prospect and will be joining Arsenal for 4 years contract. A swap deal is better than nothing.
Will these additions change your suggestion ? As a business it will for me. I think we should sell him to city for 15million of thats the Manure case.
There may be someone city will let go plus 15 million from their reserves since we like kids so much.. ( we fit ask for Yaya sef )
I agree. Sell him to City, get Yaya and Clichy (if he is still playing football). Or we fit do bold face ask for Sane, and that pikin called Foden. If dem no gree, then we go lower am to Yaya plus anybodi wiff two legs and 15 million. I am totally against selling ANYONE to Jose...even Bould sef. Is it not the same Jose that obstructed Wenger many times, including the sale of Demba Ba?
Anyway, Wenger and Arsenal people like money too much.
Arsenal are clearing out the squad, they have issues abiding to the league's restriction on % wage to revenue. They do not need the greed of this player and his Agent.

If there is a vacancy, maybe yes. Arsenal have the most ex players on the Coaching staff in the EPL.anikulapo wrote:Campbell, who was the cornerstone of one of the strongest Arsenal defences ever, wants the opportunity to help.

Jose doesn't respect anything about Arsenal, certainly not Wenger but if he wants Sanchez then he'll say anything and wash his mouth out after
ManU made a proposition which Arsenal, if rumours are correct have accepted. Arsenal are looking to maximise from their position of weakness with the player. ManU are also looking to maximise, they do not want City to get the player. The player is only interested in the money and he will be on a wage package worth over £1m per week, according to reports.

Agreed all posturing for maximum wage. But I am willing to bet that ManU pays both Raiola & Sanchez agent fees. ManU seem overly desperate to do this deal and Woodward is a clueless negotiatordanfo driver wrote: cheii! Mkhytaryan don hit gold!

Auba has never been a diva. He sat silently whilst Dortmund priced him out, only to see Dortmund fold when Dembele raised a storm. Not fair to label the guy as that, he has not been a problem until Dortmund let Dembele go.Tunisian Gooner wrote:Disconcerting that Arsenal may partake another trolley dash window, particularly with ever declining Wenger at the helm.
Think Gooners delusional if we think old man Wenger can get anything out of diva like auba. This is more desperation trolley dashing, it won't remotely fix systemic black holes that are Arsenal defense, midfield, GK and Wenger never ending culture of capitulation.
Also, where does this trolley dash come from? I said here in the summer that I heard a rumour that the club wants to overhaul the squad with minimum 15 going. They got rid of 7 in the summer, now another minimum 4 look to be on the way. With more to come next summer. To ensure this, they have brought in a new team of people to facilitate this clear out.
Finally, many don't seem the understand the issues involved with Arsenal. I have discussed this in detail in my interaction with Gooners. Here are some collective on this matter and why Arsenal are acting the way they are now.
EPL restrict total wage increase to £7m per annum year on year. If for example we increased Sanchez and Ozil to £280k per week, we will go well beyond that, if we do not have the increased sponsorship/commercial deals, matchday revenue and/or player sales to justify this increase.
Without cash injection from our Owner, our income has gone down, with less matchday revenue from cheaper tickets, our commercial/sponsorship deals will not increase from last year, plus we have also lost money dropping out of CL. So ultimately we are now reliant on selling players to allow us to spend despite being fairly cash rich.
We played safe by staying cash rich instead of investing big in players. The rule changes mean cash in the bank is worthless now whilst player values are going through the roof and our 2 most valuable assets are out of contract.
The bottom line is, we could afford to buy who we want but could not add to the wages to the bill without significant player sales. Whilst Our competition can show the revenue increases to add 2 or 3 superstars in one window, we cannot extend with the ones we have.
We need to announce some big commercial deals in the next year and be back in the CL ASAP. Arsenal will not bend the rules to compete and I agree. It is easy to ignore all of this and blame Wenger for everything. That's fine, but I belong to another school.

Agent Mino Raiola must be paid by ManU - serious handshake buyout of Henrikh....that helps us negotiate a reasonable wage packet
--------------------
... Mkhitaryan’s agent Mino Raiola wants more than £5m to make the deal happen....
Armenian international Mkhitaryan, 28, also wants more than the £150,000-a-week he earns at Old Trafford and is also demanding compensation in the region of £15m from United as his contract runs until 2021....“This is a great deal for Arsenal. They need better, younger players and they have to invest. So it’s up to Arsenal to put a deal in place and right now a deal is a long way off.” (Greedy agent trying to insert himself in our biz)
*The Gunners believe Raiola is playing hardball to get the best possible deal, despite the fact Mkhitaryan is keen on moving to London to link-up again with recruitment chief Sven Mislinat, who he signed him for Borussia Dortmund....
But United believe he could be using the current stalemate as leverage to earn better compensation terms for his injured megastar client Zlatan Ibrahimovic if and when he leaves Old Trafford

I truly believe the money going on Malcolm gets you Zaha & that along with Auba & Laca is a helluva frontline.

LOL. doesnt work that way. Remember all the rumors that it was going to be 35 million + Mkhy for Sanchez? And Raiola came out today and pretty much said "Sanchez is actually the one in the Mkhytryan deal and not the other way around."jdizzy wrote: Agreed all posturing for maximum wage. But I am willing to bet that ManU pays both Raiola & Sanchez agent fees. ManU seem overly desperate to do this deal and Woodward is a clueless negotiator
Truth is, Arsenal has put themselves in a very difficult position and are now desperate. The player has made his mind up and will NOT stay at Arsenal passed February 1 and Arsenal is desperate.
United is paying Sanchez's agent 5 million and Arsenal is paying Raiola 10 million + making Mkhy your highest paid player.

I think that is the deal of the century to get £20 million plus 100k a week off your books. I 'm also impress with the reduced wages+ incentive bonus offered to Wiltshire.
