Apparently, Man United has made massive offer for Sanchez. Maybe we are getting Lukaku back in the deal or Martial?

No you are getting Mkhitaryan though left to me and other Fergusians you should be fine with just Darmian added to the money :mrgreen:

That was a strange yellow card .... Welbeck is now the crowd enemy and promptly makes them happy by dribbling out of bounds a,h

Iwobi and Welbeck are the worst culprits upfront.
Iwobi is timid, playing without conviction. Ca he use his left leg for anything other than for running?

As for Welbeck, we used to look forward to him being healthy. But he is a dud.

Poor showing so far. I miss the big OG.

Iwobi's case is strange. That guy plays like a possessed demon for Nigeria but so timid with Arsenal. Is there something Wenger should learn about him from Rohr? That would be strange bcos the guy practically grew up right under Wenger's nose.

You want Sanchez for your reject? (Mykatharyan)? NO. Arsenal is not that stupid. You must give us something valuable in return, if you want Sanchez.

I disagree...he is supposed to be one of our star players, not doing bare minimum. The only person playing well in the attack so far is Wilshere. he is taking men on, improvising, looking before passing.

Arsenal cannot rely on Welbeck. Sorry. We need at least Anthony Martial back from United, if we sell them Sanchez.

Thanks you o. People say he is playing well, but I don't see it. He is too timid. Even fragile Wilshere is more bold.

AMN is a strong lad. Nice body check. Not sure why the refs called that.

Dude are you serious ? You didn't see the flick on from Jack that AMN dribbled into a goal kick?

Sorry Bepanda, we've always had a special arrangement with Arsenal and it's no stupidity - we gave you the great Silvestre and you gave us Robin van Persie. That is an example of a great relationship between great clubs. With that said, we are not known to give you players like Martial. You should be happy with Mikhi because it could have been Darmian :D .
