Alexis Sanchez (official).

[selassie]

Of course Wenger doesn't want to pay them that much. He was making a statement yesterday. Gave Ozil the day off with that bogus flu excuse and benched Sanchez to try and show them that they aren't needed. Did he really say he developed Sanchez?

It's this sort of thing where you can see he has his priorities twisted. He's allowed a board level decision to dictate his team selection. Nobody at board level has intervened to say he can't play them. He'd never stand for that. It's his own decision to try and show that we don't need then and that suggests to me that he's also unwilling to pay them what they want.

He did the same thing with Wiltord and Edu many years ago when they refused to extend.

Yeah he came out with that he has developed Sanchez line yesterday, he almost sounded like he felt Sanchez should be grateful for what we have done for him so far

I agree 100% with you P'nG and this is one of the reasons to why he absolutely has to go.

[Gooner23]

Sanchez is a winner and they are trying to vilify him for it. Meanwhile the loser Wenger can carry on regardless what happens on the pitch.

Fuck this club and the way it's going.

[AFC Leveller]

Who would blame him for wanting to leave? he is a world class forward and can play anywhere he likes, he wont be short of suitors. He has probably realised that the players and manager arent hungry enough for trophies and he cant stick around and play along.

Reports coming out today that Alexis killed Kennedy by flying a plane into him on 911. If true the fans need to beg Wenger to stay for two more years at least.

Good memory. He'll cut his nose off to spite his face. Same was the case for Lauren. Did the same with Theo not so long ago...I think Reyes had something similar happen to him.

He's really lost the plot if he thinks he has anything to do with Sanchez's development.

[Özim]

The guy is gone unless we replace Wenger and have a convincing stragetgy on how we'll be moving forward and our plan for winning the big trophies. Basically he's gone because I reckon Wenger will be signing a new contract as soon as the dust has settled.

In between building the stadium with his bare hands, he was flying over to Chile to give Alexis special coaching. Fact.

To be honest, I wonder why any top player comes to Arsenal, when it's been obvious we don't compete for years.

They come here to take a mid-career break. The location is excellent. The facilities second to none and the atmosphere is the most relaxed in world football. Plus you get paid and there's an excellent health care plan. Can't knock it.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

I think we are in danger of rewriting history a bit to suit a new narrative, for sure the club has thrown Alexis under the bus to protect the manager.

Which is the equivalent of doing a Mason Verger to spite your face

But Reyes? The guy was a pansy who didn't like it when it got cold, let's be fair he never came back to England and he never really flourished anywhere else.

Van Persie was a cunt for going to United, although yes we know that it broke down because he was dismayed that we weren't going into the transfer market to strengthen the squad.

Sanchez story and you've never had it so good has Mark Gonellas fingerprints all over it, but how long has he been at the club?
