didn’t watch the whole match but...I saw Sanchez lose the ball cheaply, make stupid decisions and take too many touches. A lot like hazard imo...tons of talent on the ball but lacking that elite footballing brain that makes the KDBs and silva’s of the world so good. I think he’d frustrate the fuck out of us if we signed him.

I think you'll have a pleasant surprise if we do and the opportunity to revise your risible remark above as well.

That one that scored the second goal with a phenomenal first touch? Hasn't he already played under Pep? He's one of the few players from other prem teams that I covet.

With you on this one JC. Wouldn’t touch the Sanchez who played against us with a barge pole but thought he was outstanding yesterday and should’ve won MOTM ahead of Ozil and when he plays like that you can’t defend against him

If we had Sanchez I think our missed opportunities stats would decrease - he is a clinical finisher

He’s class, but I still don’t want him. Don’t want aguero going or sane or Sterling to become benchwarmers. Let him add the odd touch of class to Arsenal and then bugger off elsewhere. We genuinely don’t need him!

he’s v talented on the ball, but I see him like hazard as more of a great individual than a great team player. doesn’t usually make the players around him better.

Nor sure what you've been watching mate. Different strokes I guess...

I don't particularly want him but i think he's pretty much the perfect player for peps system.

Am I alone in thinking that if he joined us, Pep wouldn't have him as an alternative directly to Aguero and Jesus up front or even Sane and Sterling out wide, but rather as a playmaker alternative to Silva or KDB?

Nah. He’d convert him into a world class left back or centre back maybe.
Pure genius is our Pep.

Can't rule it out but I think he'll predominantly play wide. I reckon we'll see Bernardo in the centre more often if this happens.

Probably one of the reasons why Pep desires him so much, he can fill a number of roles.

SSN Breaking News: - Arsenic says he's going nowhere in January and neither is Ozil and he hopes they will also stay next season. That's that then. 'With six months or less remaining on an existing contract for players aged 23 or older, they are free to negotiate with other clubs and sign a pre-contract agreement, indicating their ability to move to their intended club on a Bosman transfer when the next transfer window opens.'

Shenanigans when he scored his first goal tonight, wanted to know where the rest of his team were for the goal celebration when only the Germans turned up!
Souness and Henry reckoned it was a sure sign of a split dressing room- fuelling the stories he's offsky next month. ;)
