How is it bollocks? We are getting their best player and getting rid of a player we don't want.

That's our own perspective. Which is fair enough. But it's just one perspective. From their own perspective, they are getting rid of a player who has become problematic in the dressing room if reports are to be believed and who could walk away for free in the summer for a decent player Wenger has always admired and who could fit in like a hand in glove for a club like Arsenal. I think it's a win-win scenario, this one.

If we're doing the whole flight tracking thing, a Cessna 550 Citation Bravo left London Biggin Hill Airport a short while ago heading north... Currently near Luton now. No idea where it's going tho
We’re probably looking for a private jet heading from Manchester to London with takeoff at approximately 12

Tbh that’s a pretty tiny plane considering the supposed wages he’ll be on at United!

Disappointed. You only ever get 1 first impression.

I'm not mad keen on this deal. Way over inflated price, way over inflated wages for a 29 year old. Long gone are the glory days of our strict wage structure and only ever rarely signing someone over the age of 26. Sanchez; excellent footballer no doubt. But we've got a lot of excellent little nippy forwards like Martial, Lingaard, Young etc. 6/10 signing. Would not buy again.

No white text. Remarkable.

The jet is heading in the direction of Manchester/Liverpool. I'd say it's a pretty high chance of it being the one to be fair.

We need jet spotters at Manchester Airport haha

Why Manchester from London? To collect him? Miki is already in London
What do you expect him to do after the medical etc has been completed? He probably needs to go back to London to get his most important stuff before settling in at the Lowry. I doubt he brought everything he needed when driving up from London.

Or he could be on his way from London to Manchester for the reported afternoon medical. Now that I think about it, this is more likely. The other scenario was just derived from people saying it wasn’t snowing in London, but now people are saying it is. I dunno man.

We need to get an estimate of when it'll land, and then ASK Manchester Airport on twitter if they're expecting a plane from C55B plane from Luton

There's only one United!
I'm tired of reading this stuff it's bollocks.

Sanchez is on a free in 4 months, we could sign him for nothing but instead we're giving them a player worth around the £30m to take him now. Its not like we're swapping like for like, Arsenal will get nothing in 4 months yet they're getting a player Wenger has wanted for a few years.
You're trying to justify the unjustifiable and going round in circles.

Can't understand how you don't understand this is one of our geatest deals!
