Sanches signs for Bayern!

Page 9 of 10

posted on 10/5/16

I hardly know anything about sanches anyway......but what I do know is that if we're planning on spending 50m again on a player this summer they have to be a goal scorer. 44goals in 36 games is woeful. Our worst total for 72 years.

We need to sort a few areas still, not just the offensive side. We need scorers, creators and players to provide a combination of quality, defensive cover and energy in the middle.

What we'd give for another Van Nistelrooy.

The ideal summer would be

Kante
Aubeyemang
Griezmann

Van Nistelrooy would be pretty useless in this team,as would any striker to be honest.

Harry Kane reminds me of Ruud.

I don't think so, Ruud was special. Was always in the right place at the right time.

Expecting Mourinho to confirm he's going elsewhere some time today, just to rub it in before the West Ham game.

We rarely get the ball into the right spaces though.

We haven't really got anyone making the kind of intelligent runs Rvn used to make, Mata would have thrived playing alongside him.

David Beckham to Ruud van nistelrooy. Almost a perfect combo.

How is that rubbing it in?

Nah, he'd score goals in any team.

Could point to a number of games our players have missed good chances vital moments in games this season.

Very few and far between though.How many chances do we rack-up a game, about 4/5 at best ?
Our creativity,or lack of,is a major issue in why our strikers havent got the greatest goal tally this season.

Often they are good chances though. Rarely do the players take speculative efforts.

Hope no one is losing sleep over this one...

Good luck to the lad... much better to be had for that money. The folks at bayern must think really highly of him to shell out more than we did for martial after half a seasons worth of experience...

I haven't seen anything of Sanches, but from what I have heard he seems to be similar to TFM? In which case, were we really trying to sign him?
----------------------------------------------------------------------



Yes one of the most highly rated young players in Europe or some guy who's played a few games for us. That would give the club nothing to think about

He's cost less than martial.

posted on 10/5/16

Martial cost 36 mil upfront and Sanchez has cost 35 mill euros. Not even a close fee.

posted on 10/5/16

€35m fee + €45m add on is the official figure. Five year deal.
..................................

Isn't this pretty much exactly the same fee everyone was going wild about us potentially paying yesterday?!

________________
It turns out we'll be paying a €40m transfer fee for Renato and an additional €40m covered in add-ons.
_______________

It is....

So can someone explain these posts to me....

___________________________
I did say yesterday that if he went to Bayern I bet they don't pay that much
____________________________

I mean don't get me wrong the one has 5 million Euros shifted from up front fee to add ons instead but that doesn't seem like a massive difference to me...

So why or how have Bayern done well here when almost everyone thought the similarly sized deal we had lined up was terrible?!

Is it just basically a case of if Ed/United do it its a terrible deal?

Or am I missing something here?

You serious? A great player a while back but way past his best, he's 34.

Bayern already f-cked us over with Bastian, I don't want another past it player.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Holy chit the Internet really needs a sarcasm font

Are you serious? How would that work?

I'm glad we didn't do the deal so have nothing against our club at all.

This deal rises to 45 million euros instead of 80 million.

Hard to be too upset about Sanches. He'll probably do well at Bayern but not for a while and he was going to cost a fortune. Move on and focus on someone else.
