Dont be salty, you should worry about Spurs and Chelsea way more than us, your true rivals, also for top 4. Our peak rivalry was quite some time ago, we both have different main rivals now.
We also sold you Welbz, be a bit grateful and let Alexis leave to us to reach bigger things than only fighting for top 4.
So Arsenal has finished ahead of us every season since SAF and still here we are, most likely signing their best player. What a **** of a club.
Wenger just shouldn't bother anymore and should walk.

It's funny isn't it. They refused to sell us Vermaelen, an injury prone turd, but they sold us two talisman in RVP and now Sanchez.
I always found this weird, he wasn't even a big player for your guys back then, similar level to silvestre when we sold him to you lot.
And even that boom was massively boosted by watchable, brilliant & exciting United players like Giggs and Cantona (who were either really cheap or homegrown).
Manchester United are only the third highest spenders in Premier League history despite being comfortably the most successful club. They’re also not far ahead of Liverpool despite them not having won a single title.
Yes Utd broke the transfer record a few times but it was usually one big signing aligned with clever purchases and homegrown players. That is until we stopped being successful and starting spending more. The British transfer record was broken by many clubs over the last 25 years or so, including Blackburn, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, Chelsea and Man City. I think the mistake you’ve made is swallowing the shite that’s been fed to you by opposition fans over the years.
It was The Sun's.
How things change in just a few hours @The Don. I'm 80% sure he's coming to us now.
They refused to sell us Debuchy too.
Yeah but we bought Ashley Young for
For every one like him, there'll be another who says we don't spend enough
I don't think there's been a period in the last 20 or so years where we've been so financially dominant that our rivals could not compete. No where near as bad as Chelsea 2003-2007, or City 2008-now. Sure, the recent years we've been matching with city, sort of. But can't imagine we'll spend 130 mil on 3 fullbacks in one window.
Difference between us and those sugar daddy clubs, is that we've earned our money and they've had theirs given to them. Financial doping was a term used last summer.
If you can't see the difference between united and them, there's no point debating.
Because you guys loved my last comparison so much

Valencia cost £16m. Maybe this is why you think Utd paid way more than everybody else. You keep making up the figures yourself.
Right or wrong, you are killing my Sunday joy, man! Let us have our premature euphoria this morning at least.
With the speed this move seems to be going at, I'm not sure when they expect this meeting to take place with City playing Liverpool in a few hours.
Yeah who gives a feck if it’s the money I’m not paying it. The only thing is going to happen is that I’ll feel little less sad forking 50 odd quid a month for BT Sport and Sky Sports cause I’ll be watching Sanchez play for us.
Have you see the contract offer then? Don't believe everything you read.
How can a Utd fan above the age of 21 (bit of a random choice of age) not remember that summer so distinctly?! 80m for Ronaldo, replaced by 16m on Valencia, 3m on Obertan and Mickey Owen on a free. Lovely stuff
I think Arsenal fans just feel resignation at this stage. Nothing changes with the club and doesn’t look likely to anytime soon.
I hope he comes. He is exactly what we need.
He would make United a better team wherever he plays.
We need a fighter and Sanchez is a hard worker, which Mourinho demands of all his forwards.

“He’s lost a yard of pace anyway.
I’ve been saying that for months.”

“Plus, whilst no one seems to remember, it reminds me a bit of the Rodney Marsh transfer.
Think we’ve escaped and expensive mistake here.”
Lol City fans on Bluemoon! You couldn’t make this shit up!

Then don’t comment on it ffs. I mean jeez
It's always fascinating to view human behaviour when it comes to rationalising ways to cope with disappointment.
So true. As you say, the inferiority complex is strong.
I know... anything to deflect the dissatisfaction, the disappointment.
Malcoms agent pretty much confirms, Malcom is a gunner on Instagram.

I'll comment on whatever I want.
One good thing about Alexis is that he doesn’t rely hugely on pace, he’s an excellent “static” dribbler, a bit like Nani was for us.
Those astronomical wages are a major concern for us. We are currently extending several players contracts and I'm sure their agents will be wanting some sort of parity with Sanchez if he came. I just think Utd have totally blown us out of the water and we've decided to step aside. I do think we have our eyes on two other players coming, Cover for Dinho is of paramount importance. I'm hearing Fred talks are going well.
Back to Sanchez though, it will certainly strengthen our rival if as expected he rocks up there.
This all sounds to good to be true.
I refuse to get sucked in.

Spot on. During the Premier League era we have had to contend with Jack Walker throwing money around at Blackburn and Sir John Hall doing similar at Newcastle in the 90's. Not to mention Abramovich and the Sheikh more recently. Yes we had/have money, but we were never able to 'blow everyone out of the water'.
He has lost his burst of pace though.
He is coming, blue bitches, he is coming!
Jose is clearly going for the CL cup!

Bless them, they actually are trying to rationalise it as a 'sideways step'.Because you guys loved my last comparison so much

what are the odds (if we do get him and he's not going to city) that we've promised him the number 7?
