Hold fire r big Polish mate. Now you've got Mikhitaryian saying he always dreamed of playing for Arsenal.

There's a lot of hilarity left in this one yet!

Tbf he was quoted in 2009 how he wanted to play for Arsenal because he liked their style of play.

Obviously it's just what most footballers say these days when moving to get fans on side straight away. But in Mkhitaryan there may be some truth to it.

Yeah and Sanchez in his statement said he couldn't turn down the opportunity play for Jose Mourinho (after it turned out City will pay less and Pep isn't that interested, that is)

Football is his career. Why would you turn down a better contract?
In your field of work, would you turn down a better offer to do whatever it is you do?
 
Nobody could realistically answer that without the context of what you're leaving and what you're going to.
 
Scouse you keep having these slight digs at Sanchez not performing or being professional enough jn an Arsenal shirt. But I don't see you saying the same about Van Dijk??

When the Liverpool move didn't happen during summer he refused to play for Southampton... Bit hypocritical imo.

Yet he never didn’t not play. Or train. And for as sub standard as he was labelled, he was their best defender statistically in most every facet this year. So what that says about every other player down there under Pochettino **** only knows?

He never covered himself in glory but at least stick to actual events mate.

He missed start of season because of it and was put in reserves, it's common knowledge.

Plus you saying about as sub standard as he was being labelled he was still their best player.. you can make that case for Sanchez anyway

I just find it hypocritical anyway.. you can't say it about one and not the other.
 
He was coming back from being out since January. That not common knowledge? Where you think he was the second half of last season?

Sound. You think it’s hypocritical no problem there. But don’t be like others hey and at least stick to the facts?

Like you sticking to the facts about Sanchez?

Hey ho, we'll move on swiftly.
 
Mate, I answered a question Anthony asked on whether you’d move for more money. Not sure why you even chose to run with that to go down that road?

Not just that, I was just taking it off your general stance on the Sanchez transfer throughout the week.

But anyway, think nothing of it, let's talk about Arsenal seeming looking to screw up this Aubamayang deal with the penny pinching.
 
Worst move they could make IMHO.

They’ve just unloaded someone that was a problem the changies. Now they’re trying to bring in someone who has been getting a bad rep for his attitude in Dortmund. Says it all when he’s been on the market so cheap for so long and the only firm offers are from China and Arsenal. A top class striking talent. What does that tell yer?
