Missed the first month of the season. Couldn't even be arsed to play the blushite as a goodbye. Great little player and he will be missed, but happy he is gone. That "woe is me" look overtime he scored annoying. We need to bring someone in this window though, maybe not a replacement and it's difficult to do, but one of two injuries to Mane of Salah, we are in trouble. Eh eh bobski how's those pink lips doing anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a silly thing to hope for, as if he does then your be might not receive some of your approx 30m pounds worth of add on's which i imagine would revolve around him playing !

Rc2702 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Apparently some Egyptians think Trezeguet as he is locally known in Egypt. Is better than salah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangrakBob Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Travelling so missed the match, sounded horrendous, but they way heads fall off about it is a bit over the top. if ever there was time to have a loss it’s now. Beat Huddersfield and we are back on track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Arsenal fans know the feeling when one of these mercenary talents departs. Bittersweet but has to be done. Meeting Sanchez' wage demands would have destroyed the financial balance of the club. ManU may discover this effect applies not only to the semi-parsimonius clubs!

StevieH Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 it isn't the end of the world because we beat man city the week before without coutinho too. but we've got to learn how to adapt to beat the lower sides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the gamble when you pay those levels of wages to a guy that wouldn't be guaranteed to have even been a regular starter for City. Its fine to pay the enormous wages to the likes of Messi and Ronaldo but Sanchez is still on a different level. This is a gamble for United because his wages might well offend some of those little egos in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a gamble for United because his wages might well offend some of those little egos in the squad. According to a drinking fellow in the local bar last night (Chelsea but still good mates!) Pogba is rumoured to have already made enquiries! He's also rumoured to be on half of what the Chilean is now on. And so the pernicious circle continues. I wonder if all this football circus in Europe will come down to earth with a hard landing when the 10 year bull run economic cycle (never felt like that except now looking back) reverses. The only welcome stat I've seen about football finances of late is the survey that reported that The Championship (a.p.k.a.) the English 2nd Division now has the third highest football gates in the world, after the Premiership and Bundesliga and before La Liga. Just looked on Wiki - must be the world as the pedia has a slightly earlier analysis that the US NFL is number one (17m) and Prem number 2 (14m) in worldwide sport physical attendances. [Prem must be way ahead on all forms of viewing but pride in national success is also tinged with that bitter sweet feeling that we lost something too!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can was the longest serving player in the team last night, hence the honor. devaluing the "captain" ethos will make it easier to sell Henderson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB has a fair point, we'd have been 5 points clear of you, with an expected win. You'd also expect us to beat Huddesfield, that would have made it 8 points before you face United, which odds wise would end a draw. Then you play us at home, which we should win.....10 points clear. Toss in Arsenal and a likely draw, while we beat the saints that is 12 points with 12 games to play. That Swansea win against us is huuuuge for you.
