I was going to make a post lamenting the lack of width in that formation then I remembered Arsenal have no width of note anyway

Mkhitaryan should be wide enough

Simon Stone was on BBC 5 live and said United committed to paying Sanchez £180M over four years. I'm guessing that includes a lot of bonuses, but holy loving poo poo.

As much as I would love to laugh at this forever, there's no loving way.

Telling De Bruyne they’re going to pay a worse player twice as much as him would probably be an uncomfortable conversation.

and the fact that they agreed to everything, then Sanchez('s agent) came back after United made their offer and demanded more. Also City have a wage structure of a :airquote:low:airquote: base salary and a lot of bonuses, and Sanchez wanted a higher base which would have I guess remained in effect until he's 33.

So who becomes the squad player when Liverpool sign a forward who's rated at like £80m regardless of what Arsenal is bidding?

They could all just take turns starting from the bench. I'm sure any 3 of those 4 would be a terrifying front 3.

Has any club actually made any proper bo signing from Dortmund except for Bayern? Seems like everyone leaves the club and turns into a big time failure

Gundogan, after he came back to life, has been really really good.

Barca signing Dembele for £100m?

He's only 20 and immediately got injured but he was incredible at Dortmund.

Yeah that's the point, he hasn't actually done anything at Barca yet

Gundogan hasn't really done anything either.

That's not giving him enough credit. He's behind Silva and de Bruyne of course, but he's played plenty in the team at the top of the league by 12 points, and looked like he belonged. He's slotted in when Silva was in Spain and the team kept churning out results.

Paperhouse said most players who left Dortmund have been failures, he hasn't, and cost something like £20m.

He's been 3rd or 4th choice at City, does weil in Cup games, gets 15 minutes at the end of League matches that are wrapped up if and when he's fit. If he and Bernardo Silva are content being that kind of player more power to them. Get your money.

You don't really get to complain when the team selected wins 17 league games in a row. Get some perspective.
