Probably still better then Kolo, Skrtle and Agger.
I think it's a decent show. Every season there end up being only like 2-3 good artists lol, the rest are mediocre/bad. Season 4 had the best final 3 artists of any season IMO.
I'll give you a pass for not mentioning Sakho.

I still think the collar looks kinda awful. Might look better on.
You can bet in Vegas and a few other places in person. Online betting is illegal but a few sites operate out of other countries that Americans can use. I don't believe the British sites allow it due to the fact that it's illegal here.
Has Wayne ever got anything like this right? Like, even by fluke?
It's still entirely likely he goes to Arsenal, but in that eventuality we keep Suarez, so it really makes no difference.
WTF are you talking about? Everything has said he's not interested in going to Liverpool.
Nowhere I've seen has said that? A few places have said that he prefers arsenal, but not that he's ruled out Liverpool.
They have Giroud
I guess we think he is a striker? I mean he kinda is....sort of? We'll probably buy Remy at some point I'd assume. Wenger is probably waiting to see if we can get someone better.
Joel Campbell??
I dunno. If he passes (well, passed) on Cesc and doesn't even enquire about Lukaku and/or follow up Remy (which has gone colder than an Eskimo's willy) then he's barmy
Giroud/Campell/Remy sounds ok I guess?
Where the hell have you read that?
All of the reliable Liverpool sources have said he's open to a move.
Well, he always plays in either Theo or Ozil's position; he might be extremely potent in terms of attacking but he's not really a striker. Presumably he'd be playing alongside Ozil and not ahead of him.
I understand - like us with Mata - that if that type of quality is available for a reasonable price it has to be done, but the priority for Arsenal isn't really Sanchez's position; it's both ahead of that and behind it.

Murray you Scottish fuck
Don't see any fresh Remy links anywhere to be honest. Campbell's looked very decent, and I like Giroud more than a lot seem to, but Sanchez is best coming from the right - a la Walcott - or from the centre - a la Ozil.
Unless he's finally doing what he should have done ages ago and turning Walcott into an inverted winger.
I don't think this is right. I presume he's basing that information on the fact that Bornemouth only got £4m from the transfer, but the Chief Exec said that he had to give up some of the fee to facilitate the transfer.

I saw somewhere today say Sanchez wasn't keen on going to Liverpool.
But really who cares unless the news comes from a select 3/4 people max everything else should be ignored.
RafaelH117 for example - He gets things right sometimes and others he's just speculating. These people somehow become assumed as actual ITKS. They're not.
Either way. Sanchez saga is going to provide some pretty good dick measuring lols between Liverpool-GAF and Arsenal-GAF. I look forwards to it.

If we buy Sanchez, I guarantee you will see him at the top in Giroud's position, guaranteed, whether he needs to be there or not.
Looks like all the news is coming today.
Lammy was joking. I would have thought that was obvious.
Well he's a defender who wasn't able to get ahead of Fryers or Naughton in the pecking order.
He's not very good, presumably he will just be emergency backup to replace Martin Kelly.
Yeah, stage is set for ArseGAF and PoolGAF to be just as amusing as they were last season. Wonderful.
Dimitrov looks the real deal though (at 23 he's kind of a relative latecomer now though?)
It can only be good for tennis that the big four - already a superb set of consistent challengers - can be rivalled by people like Wawrinka, Dimitrov et al.
Where's Del Potro? I like him. Injured?

Actually one of the catalan rags said Sanchez is not seduced by the idea of Anfield at the least. And I quote.
Fuck seduction, Ayer has taken two bottles of gin and a bottle of rohypnol.
Injured for pretty much the whole year.
And yeah, tennis players seem to hit their prime later nowadays, or perhaps its just this generation that's falling short. Was never really uncommon throughout tennis history for under-21s to win Grand Slams but they're barely ranked in the top 100 now.

Don't think anyone is ever seduced by the idea of Anfield
I also don't think he likes the idea of being a make weight in a deal for Suarez. Imagine if you're a player and your team says "Hey, we got this new guy coming in who's better than you, so we'd like you to leave so he can play. You think you could also go to the team he just came from too? He's too good for them, but you're not!" Nothing against Liverpool, but imagine if that was you.

Can anyone else confirm the source for this article? I didn't see anything on L'Equipe's website.
EDIT: I should've mentioned that the article talks about a possible transfer for James, with his agent hinting that it's unlikely he'll stay at Monaco, and that Napoli, Madrid, and Barcelona have all shown interest. Price will be €45m+.

Yeah absolutely, I think that's why we've been clear in that Sanchez isn't part of the Suarez deal (at least officially). It could go either way, it'll come down to how much pressure Barca put on Sanchez, and how receptive he is to that pressure.

Guardiola will swoop.
He will sack Ribery or Gotze off for Alexis.

This is the third season in a row with a transfer battle between Arsenal and Liverpool - has everyone forgotten the Sahin loan so quickly?
I do believe that was the notoriously shit sport.es, was it not? And they were pretty much the only one, seems any other story to that effect has just been requotes of the sport.es original story. As you are doing

You all should get used to Sanchez coming to Chelsea. It's written in the stars
Liverpool and Arsenal can fight over Victor Moses

Sanchez wasted in tiki taka yet again
LOL he fucking totalled his Porsche, I don't think he deserves a nicer car :lol
Wilbur I'm willing to PAY to see this
name your price
you can't say Vidal you muppet
Barca are crazy to sell Sanchez really. He's perhaps not as reliable a finisher as you might want but has bags of skill and when he's on he's on.
Suarez on the other hand well...he's Suarez so I can see why they would want him all round better finisher. So perhaps I can see the logic. But no way they sell one without gaining the other.

Any deal on Suarez for Barcelona will involve Sanchez. Barcelona are not dumb, they won't want to pay the valuation of £80m for Suarez and they know that Sanchez going the other way is the sweetner for any sort of deal below the valuation. Whether Sanchez wants to come to Liverpool is anotner matter, a lot of mixed reports but apparently Liverpool have been in talk with his agents and had no sort of indication that he is against the move. I think he probably prefers Arsenal but ever so slightly, definintely a deal to be done there.
Although Ian Ayre is in charge of transfers, so I'm not entirely confident.
In other news, we have signed a former Spurs player called Kevin Stewart on a two year deal. He's 20 and apparently a defender.

I understand that completely, but it's a dilemma;
- If Sanchez signs for Arsenal, that makes the Suarez deal extremely difficult, because I don't think there are any other players we want as a makeweight, and Barca are never going to agree to the full release clause.
- If Barca can't get Suarez, it's then a massive risk to sell Sanchez, since they may not be able to replace him, adequately.
- But if they keep him, they're stuck with a player they've just tried to get rid of, who really doesn't have much to prove in the way of his quality.
- All whilst a transfer ban looms.
I can't remember the last time Barca lacked so much control over matters when conducting a transfer.

They might be the most dumb club in the world when it comes to transfers.
Well it looks like Barca also want Cuadrado, who I believe they can get cheaper than Sanchez, so I think they're already ready to lose Sanchez. In the end, I think they'll get Suarez regardless. They'll drag that shit out as long as they have to, and will do what it takes. We've seen this shit before. They don't play nice when it comes to a player they want.
Yup if Suarez plays his cards right Barca will fly his family over from Uruguay and Sanchez will get paid to go to Liverpool
