I have been very patient with him but now realise he’s unlikely to succeed. He still has flashes of greatness but he’s gone from a great game in every two games for Arsenal into a great game in 10 for us (not even that tbf)
It’s not good enough so he should leave this summer
I was excited by this signing, he looked so good for Arsenal. A big disappointment, not sure what I would do, play him in the reserves for a while would have been an option, but not now. If he does want to go, then Bye Bye, if not, keep trying for a little longer.
Think he’s pretty much done at this level. The signs were there in his last season at Arsenal. He was losing the explosive side to his game, and not getting past players as easy as he was season before. At the time it seemed it was because he wasn’t happy at Arsenal, but it seems now it was a lot due to him decling physically. He either needs to adapt his game, or try an easier league

I agree he’s done. As is mata. My heart dropped when I saw him come onto the pitch at HT.
I’d actually be happy to get rid of lukaku, mata and Sanchez in the summer, promote Greenwood and buy 2 young attacking quick players one of them being the right side.

So similar to the Chelsea signing Torres. Both were clearly on a downward curve and hadn't been the same player in the 6- 12 months previous. Sanchez was always pretty average in possession but he's lost all the things that made his a great player . You'd better hope a team from China comes in for him cos on those wages, he may be hard to shift.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We'll shift him in the summer and keep paying part of his wages, as we did with Rooney.
Was gutted when we never made a serious play for him...maybe we dodged a huge bullet...odd one
Nicolas Pepe, Steven Bergwijn and of course Jadon Sancho are prime targets for the right wing. However the latter is likely to be out of reach this summer given that they've already agreed to sell Pulisic to Chelsea.

Never heard of Nicholas Pepe. Never watched that Bergwijn bloke. Sancho looks decent but would need around 90m minimum
We'd be better off now had we just kept Mkhitaryan rather than swapping him for Sanchez.
I do wonder if Ole might've been able to get a tune out of the Armenian.

Mkhitaryan doesn’t look much better than Sanchez tbf
Pepe plays for Lille and is a very exciting winger. Left footed predominantly but plays on the right. The exact opposite of Martial. Haven't seen much of him bar extensive YouTube clips but he does look very good. And quite a few clubs have reportedly scouted him recently.

No he hasn't proven much use at Arsenal but you never know how he would've faired under Ole. He'd have at least given us another option on the right.
We'd saved a bit in wages too.

I didn't say you didn't. Somebody said they didn't know who he was. Calm down.
Apologies, thought you were talking to me.
At least when Rooney dropped off he was still able to contribute. Sanchez is just awful.
not quite sure you are waiting for Sanchez to do. His legs are gone and he doesnt offer us much at all.
the Club be it Ed or Jose or both made an error signing him up just to big bolux City.
We should try and offload him to the cretins in China if we can, but he should never appear in our first team again.
He was getting some stick from near me in the stretty when he came on. People are losing patience now. He's just woeful.
hes holding Ole back trying to give him a game. Should have bought Lukaku on first instead of Sanchez they way we were pumping hopeless balls into the Paris box hoping there was a big man there
Says it all. Lukaku is hardly flavour of the month with fans but he's definitely much better than Sanchez is for us.
Wouldn't lose a winks sleep if they both left though. Both awful signings.
He’s arguably the worst signing we’ve ever made when you consider the money involved.
