Sane was always going to remain. It's the form of Sterling which has made Pep rethink his strategy. I remember Arsenal demanding Sterling in exchange for Sanchez. Sterling has been sizzling form. Pep would still take Sanchez if he's offered for 20m or so. I mean Sanchez probably rotate with Aguero or even Sane. I can see Sanchez starting with Sane coming off the bench in most games. Either way, if United can pull this deal off, it would be as good as Bayern getting Lewandowski on the free. Not only do we get a world class player, we get him for 4 months to integrate within the squad and also to play in the Champions League. Ed has to do everything in his power to make this happen.
Oh yeah.. it was!
Its okay to show some love. Get on with it @MaxiPaxi
What I meant was that Sanchez would take away the pressure from Pogba (only star in the team right now, price tag and so forth), and he would make those runs Pogba love to find with a pass. Sanchez is also excellent at combining with other (smart) players, which again Pogba in theory should thrive on. Imagine those curled passes over the back line from Alexis to Pogba running from behind.
Ill cease all sexual activity until he signs. Then BOOM!
I'll record it all and send it to Balugue.
When Jose talks about a player like that, we've signed them every time.
Well, the big question is does Alexis want to come to United? We still don't know that, do we? Or I am missing something. I know that we can offer him good things, but that still doesn't guarantee anything.
I mean, he still has everything in his hands, even if he doesn't move now, there will be much more options for him in the summer when he will be free to go.

Di Marzio himself said that United only showed initial interest in Fabinho. He was adamant that we had moved onto Matic and Dier. In fact, he himself said that we were close to Matic a few days before we signed him.
Good man
Oooh, Joey Mou give me my Sanchyou
Can't blame Sanchez tbh. Would be difficult to turn down the chance to play with Messe Lingad
We would talk to the agent first before bidding. He's obviously given us the green light, so yes.
When we are in a tussle with City or appear to be, If we were not confident of signing, we would have poured cold water.
Remember how Jose dismissed the Bernardo Silva speculation when it appeared he was coming to us.
Still keeping my fingers crossed. What a signing this would be.

I had a dream about Sanchez in a pink away kit about two years ago now that I think about it.
Ok, my take on the media's blatant city bias - and trying to brand Utd as 'the money team' (vs City!)...
One thing I'll say about José, is that if you were a marquee player looking at how he treats big signings in his Utd time, you'd defo know that if you sign, he will play you and show great loyalty.
Pogba didn't really have a great debut season but José just played him and played him and Pogba's game has gotten better - and Pogba has won trophies since coming here.
Rom this season is very similar (though I think Rom has had a better debut season thus far than Pog had last season), but José is really loyal to him and just plays him and plays him.
Same with Matic, same last season with Zlatan.
So if you're Sanchez, you would know that if you sign for José you will play A LOT of footy, and on top of that, and thanks for José's aforementioned loyalties at Utd, you would know that you're joining a project with a well bedded in Pogba, Matic, Rom and a solid defense in a team that's on the up and that wins trophies.
And what of Guardiola's biggest signings...?
Jesus - rotates
Sané - rotates
B. Silva - doesn't play
Gundogan - if fit, rotates
He has nothing of the loyalty to his 'big signings' like José does.
We mustn't forget that he inherited Aguero, Sterling, de Bruyne, D. Silva - they aren't his signings, and even then, he rotates.
Joining City, you're joining a team with a guarantee of a PL medal this season - but you're also aware that you're joining a team at it's apex... what if you don't hit the ground running? You've got Sane, Sterling, Aguero, Jesus, de Bruyne, Silva and more in the Summer...
And you've got a maverick, unpredictable manager, who while very good, is probably the biggest gamble of a manager to play for.
Joining United, you've got a team on the up with a manager who will basically guarantee you start every game.
You go through a dry spell as a José marquee signing - no worries, play through it, as Pog, Rom and Zlatan are proof of.
Another factor, while not as important but still worth mentioning, is that joining city you're moving to a notably smaller stadium (that's never full), whereas with Utd you're moving up into a bigger stadium and a bigger fanbase.
TLDR - it isn't 'City or Money', it's 'Start every match or Rotate', it's '40,000 or 75,000'.
Food for thought.

I apologise. The peak will be when someone says signing him would be better than winning the league, if someone hasn't already.
Next level
This is actually going to happen isn’t it!
Another plus is that he won’t be going to the wc this year so can have a good summer off and be fresh for August.

Uuuuuuughhhhmmmmnnnnnn
Once a ballbag always a ballbag.
Pep or money? Someone answer me ffs
I think what you just did puts you on some sort of list for deviants...
Get a nice slow session in, half dreaming the commentator scream "Sanchezzzzzzzzzzzz, what a piece of business for MUFC, the Champions League is coming back to Old Trafford"
No, just me?
The one thing I have learned from this whole sega is how much of a disgrace some journalists are as in being Pro-City. Seriously people saying it's only about the money If he joins us? Are these people that fecking stupid? How did Man City start as a club again in 2008?
And don't get me started on Balague, the man has such an agenda against us it's unreal

Poor old hairy ballbag will be so angry if we get him. Its worth paying what arsenal want just for that reason alone.
It's also wise you don't say the phrase that I alluded to into Alexa. Or google.
Most logical explanation: It all boils down to FFP. Can't give big raises to all the squad, evidently what they offered is as far as they think they can go without risking to blow up the dressing room
Money
Money. I don't know what to do with Pep without money. It's not like he coaches Sunday league team to stardom. With money a competent coach can work wonder.
It's terrible what we're doing to small poor City.Money
City don’t need him. We do.
Doesn’t mean they don’t want him, of course. But our desire I sense is stronger.
