Although that's true, sanchez always seems to play better through the middle or on the left.

He might even put lukaku on the right like when Zlat went up front

So we're still lop sided? honestly can't see Lukaku anywhere but through the middle.

May as well play Martial and Sanchez on the left of Lukaku, Pogba just behind them and Shaw bombing on and just leave the right empty, let Valencia sort it.

Used to do similar with Evra on the left tbf.

Is this £#%&!er even training? No chance he features tomorrow

Remember people, supporters and the media, saying his best days were gone, that he couldn't defend.


Hint of truth in it yes but, also because there was no one else attacking or defending our left side

Mou confirmed he's in the squad.

Probably wouldn't be unless JM was planning to give him at least a few minutes I'd have thought.

Where do you want him?

We did already have that discussion. You probably missed it because you were trying to change the subject, mate.

Think we generally decided on the right.

Some had me thinking it was a Rashford thread at one point.
Easy mistake to make

Fellaini and Darmian will likely be gone, a clearout beyond that you'd just be reinventing the same problems of a squad that's thin on numbers in key positions. Getting rid of Smalling when he's the only centre half who can stay fit for a mostly full season and Jones given how he's played recently would be £#%&!ing stupid and wouldn't improve the squad at all.

Smalling might not be the best footballer around but he is our best defender. Haven't seen any stats so would be interested if somebody had them but I would imagine he would win more aerial battles & tackles than any other of our CB's. Also makes a lot less total £#%&! ups than Rojo, Jones & even Bailly. He & Jones have formed a good partnership. The only issue, & its a big one really, is that all our CB's seem to be made of glass.

How many players in the PL or even championship could you aim that snide envious comment at?

For £#%&!’s sake...

ARSENAL and Manchester United MUST explain to Uefa why Alexis Sanchez missed a drugs test on Monday, as the Chilean was sealing a switch to the Red Devils.

According to Spanish news outlet Sport, Europe's governing body turned up to London Colney at the beginning of the week, but were failed to be notified by the Gunners that the 29-year-old would not be present to give blood.

Every @#%&! in Europe knew he was waiting to complete his transfer to United so they turned up at Arsenal to do a drug test on him?

Yeah but if you’re earning a million quid a week you should have the initiative to ring up the testers and let them know.

It's arsenal's responsibility to inform them of where they are.

City have done this several times where they haven't informed drugs testers of their players whereabouts and they've gotten little more than a slap on the wrist.

With that being said I fully expect Sanchez to be banned for 5 years now.

Hmmmm

Nice little back handed from City officials to get Sanchez in trouble after he told them to £#%&! off?

And be fined 2 week’s wages.

Imagine what a charity could do with that £18m windfall
