Yep. But any other striker you'd still have to pay the wages. So it's not like 80m vs. Nothing
Alexis Sanchez - Inter watch
- Thread starter Luke1995
- Start date
If he does well enough, Inter will take him on loan again next season and pay half of his wage again. Bayern set a good example how it should be done with James and Coutinho.
Well Sanchez did contribute around 4 or 5 goals in 1.5 years, with no resell value too. That’s our 80m investment.
On the other hand, James would have cost us around 35m (transfer fee + wages), and has higher resell value too. He already contribute 3 goals in 2 months.
I agree at the end of the day it was a bad acquisition.
Just arguing that at that time him being on free transfer means he's getting a higher salary and it's understandable.
I’d rather he has transfer fee but lower salary. His high salary means it’s very difficult to get rid of him.
Sacnhez knows this, he's running down his contract exactly fro this
If he does well then there will be other clubs who will be interested too.
Well that all depends if such a deal suits us
Thought the contract for the loan deal was for 1 year then they must buy or he comes back.
Injured on international duty
Injured on international duty with “dislocation of the tendons” in his left ankle and may need surgery. We are never selling this guy are we...
Yeah that ship has long sailed. It might suit everyone if he agrees to a pay out and end his playing days in China or the MLS.
Nope, worst transfer in football history in context. We are cursed.
Wow, this guy cannot get a run of luck can he! That sounds a bad one
He should consider retiring from playing for Chile. It could help his club career.
Is there any chance Inter return him to us prematurely due to this injury? Or is Conte ready to be patient with Sanchez as he sees him an important part of his best first 11?
I’d imagine they could but wouldn’t as they would still be responsible for their share of his salary.
If he does well wouldn’t we be in the position to ask for more of his wages to be Inter’s responsibility
I don't think that will be an option somehow
He should have retired playing for Chile awhile ago.
Far far from people's expectation when We signed him...
Its really sad he turned out like this. Maybe if we had a coach that knew how to train players to attack he would have been great. I can see he just got stunted by the teams way of playing isn't very effective for him and completely constrained his progress. He'd still be banging them in for arsenal because its suited his play style. Imagine Sanchez, aubameyang and lacazette up front. Would have been a deadly front 3.
No doubt he's as disappointed as us fans how this turned out. At least he won some trophies with us.

He didn’t win any trophies with us?
Really? We won an fa cup and a Europa league trophy. Was he not involved at all to get a medal?
Both of those happened before he signed. The FA Cup win was under LVG and the Europa was Jose’s first season. We signed Sanchez in the January of Jose’s second season (when we lost the FA Cup final to Chelsea).
Sanchez went downhill at Arsenal a season or so before he joined us.
Arsenal fans knew this but thought it was a mental problem due to him wanting a move.
In my opinion he just had an Owen or Torres type career projection where he was done by the time he was supposed to be a consistent player in his prime.
Whilst he would no doubt have his uses in a team - he would never be that Arsenal player under any manager under any tactics in my opinion. He wasn't performing for Arsenal in the last year's/months & was the main reason he didn't deserve such a hefty contract.
We really need to stop this buying players just because City or Guardiola are linked to them rubbish - not only is it rubbish and we look like desperate underdogs - but if its actually true then City can play stupid games to waste our cash on the likes of Fred & Sanchez. Appalling football insight from people high up at United.
Sanchez? No.
A guy like him would have done well to retire from International football. He's already won the Copa America twice. There ain't much more to achieve beyond that
You're not wrong, but I believe his prime was in mid 20's. By the time he reached 27, his muscles already on maximum mileage.
Not everyone takes care of their body like Ronaldo or Zlatan. Alexis's time as a top football player is over.
If he can't adapt like Giggs or Scholes, you're basically finished.
This is a good shout.
He should retire from football and spend more time with his dogs.
My bad. My memory is out the window these days.
No, Mkhitaryan was a big part of the Europa League run (and he was swapped for Alexis) and the FA Cup was the season before.
Because he was injured on international duty, FIFA pay a proportion of his wages while he’s out. Do we get that, or Inter?
Probably Inter or they would just send the player back if it's going yo be a long term absence
In his defense, he only played football when playing for his country lately.
The guy plays 3 games in a row and then gets injured, he has been pretty much the same for the last 2 years his body is broken.
I presume it'll be split the same way as his wage is. For example - if we're paying 40% of his wage, we'll get 40% of the compensation.
Or i'm pretty sure he could retire from club football and still get picked for Chile
Yep. If this is a long lay off he's done

Apparently will miss the next 2-3 months.
Does this tween mean he can return in Jan ?
