Mikhi is another player that Mourinho has ruined.

Sanchez can go to United, he’s after the money for sure. £350k a week is ****ing ludicrous

not really. It's just the cost of a sturridge and a milner <whistle>.

Seriously though, he's approximately 3 prem players (at the big clubs) and in nowadays when theirs loads of deadwood, if he's decent it'll be worth it

Generally agree but feel the need to point out that Oxlade can offer creativity. Not only in play but also from set pieces, especially with VVD on the pitch too.

I will be surprised if Ox proves to be creative when teams sit deep (although he is good for driving past people but i think that's when theres space to open up).

Not sure about his set pieces but surely you should be putting salah on those (he's been on some this year).

think you guys are better off getting Keita early for the 20m.

All makes sense to me. Now put names to it all and it gets much harder!

Does Keita count as one of your midfielders or are you saying we need these as well as Keita?

As well. Keita is more like a box to box player with the long, bursting runs forward past players and the ability to play some through balls, a bit of an allrounder - but not the same creativity for unlocking a team when things are tight and compact as Coutinho had. Need a bit more finesse and guile in there. Names wise - Nabil Fekir as the creative player for now if possible, Timo Werner as the flexible forward, Timo Horn as a keeper (take your pick really, lots of good German keepers!) aside from the obvious of Oblak or Allison, Ginter as a RB and go all out for Fabinho as DM.

He is, but not in the same vein. I rate him and Lallana, but they'll never be true creators from deep midfield

Wasn't talking about shooting from freekicks

Not great though. Although admittedly, he's not had a VVD to aim at but then, neither as AOC bar one game.

PS... I have missed a lot of our games this season because I've been working on the house.
 
City pull out of the race to sign Sanchez - apparently wages he'd want would put him way ahead of all their other star players.

Looks like coast is clear for United to give him £350k a week

Guess we will soon see what motivates Sanchez; money or honours.

I can't believe no foreign teams are after him given they can agree a contract now for free.

Bayern need to replace Robben & Ribery.
Juve (or any Italian team) are always up for a freebie signing.
Even Madrid could do with him although his Barca connection may prevent that one.

City knew they'd be shooting themselves in the foot if they tried to match the wages. Ironic that United and Mourinho complain about City being the money club then they're the team throwing money at a player they're both competing for.

Maybe they did but laughed at his wage demands.

Fekir would be incredible. He'd be part of the new fab four by the end of the season.
