Exactly my thoughts too Ripley

"It's not about City being financially responsible. Or United not being for that matter. It's about each club weighing up the pros and cons of the deal and reacting accordingly. It is a good deal for United, irrespective of whatever amount of money they are paying him. United, I would argue, need Sanchez more than City do, and so were prepared to pay more in order to get a player who is potentially/ultimately worth more to them. "

I don't necessarily agree with the first part of your post but I do wholeheartedly agree with this.

Not bothered what rival fans think, many Arsenal and City fans will say he’s joining for the money, because that’s what rival fans do.

It’s the press reaction that has really been surprising, some really disrespectful articles and quotes over the last week. Almost like they’re shocked that a top player wants to join Man Utd, it’s been ridiculous.

The fact he looked so excited about joining city last season looks funny too.

He did? First I’ve heard of it.

Do you hear most things before everyone else?

"he looked so excited about joining city"



What a ridiculous comment.

Do you hear most things before everyone else?
...

Eh?

Was a joke.

It was reported in Chile that he was excited to be joining city and some tweets before the deal fell through at the last minute.

I saw Peter Crouch doing the robot over the weekend.

He was clearly excited about joining Chelsea.

All rumours, all that matters is he’ll be looking excited to be wearing a Utd shirt within a day or two.

The wage he’s reported to be on why wouldn’t he be.

This article demonstrates nicely the difference in how some rival fans have the ability to have a sensible discussion and others don't.

Hi Ruiney

It's got nothing to do with money, He said last night that it was his dream to play for United.
