Love to see Sanchez running down his contract but Wenger is full of shit and they will sell.


Who will RM sell to make this happen?

Not only do they have the front three, but Isco has been playing very well.

Everyone talks about selling Bale, but I'm surprised it's not Benzema we hear more about.

Benzema could be the one, however Bale is probably the most likely. But a case could be argued for any of the current front 3 to be moved on to make way.

Can you imagine a partnership between him and Jesus - salivating to be honest, we have to be at the table for this lad even if we get "snubbed"

Our number 9 shirt is still free isn't it?

How about Mbappe to PSG, Cavani to City?

Seems a good short-term solution to our chance-missing issues

Would he come to be a squad player though. I doubt he will dislodge either Kun or Jesus in a starting berth. Pep has apparently already told Sterling to get used to being part of a squad and not to expect to start every game. It's a really difficult thing to get back up players who are good enough yet are happy to take a back seat role.

He didn't tell just Sterling, that's the way his comments have been twisted by the media. He was asked about Sterling but his response was in general terms about the squad.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/ ... r-10981584

 “Our midfield positions are ‘Phwoar!’ Really good. We have Fernandinho, Gundogan is coming back, with Kevin (De Bruyne), with Silva, with Raz (Sterling), who can play in that position. Phil Foden, who was outstanding in pre-season.

“They all have such a lot of quality. I like players when they have the ball, they don’t lose the ball. I love that. And they keep it, they keep it well.

“All of them are going to play. Last season, I rotated the team a lot and I will do that again. They will all be involved. After that it depends on them and if they accept my decision or not. If they don’t accept it, it will be their problem not mine."

I can see Mbappe staying and digging his heals in to force a move to PSG - having a shit season because half the team has gone, and him wishing he went this summer to Real or City.

Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe is undecided about his future amid interest from Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid and Manchester City, PSG youth academy sporting director Luis Fernandez has told Cadena Ser.

Mbappe, 18, was an unused substitute as Monaco won at Dijon on Sunday and Fernandez said he believed "he has two or three teams in his mind."

Last week, sources told ESPN FC the France international was keen on a move to PSG but said no agreement had been reached and one may not come this summer.

"Kylian's issue is very difficult," former PSG captain and coach Fernandez said. "He did not play on Sunday, and there is a lot of talk and rumours, but you can see that it [a move to PSG] is not an easy task.

"There are four or five players that need to leave PSG due to financial fair play.

"I think he has two or three teams in his mind which are Real, PSG and perhaps City. City have a good friend of his, Benjamin Mendy, who has gone there [from Monaco].

"I do not think he has taken a decision. He did not play last Sunday because he is in a situation where he is considering whether to stay or to leave.

"But Kylian is 18 and must take the decision with his family and entourage."

Fernandez said Mbappe needed "to consider the French team and that next year is the World Cup," adding: "Staying at Monaco for another season is not a bad option for him.

"I can see him staying for another year. He wants to play in a big club and they have started the campaign well and already possess a good team.

"He wants to join a competitive team, but in Monaco he can continue to improve, to progress and not have the pressure of delivering straight away that he would have if he joins PSG now."

Fernandez said he believed that if PSG managed to sign Mbappe and combine him with Neymar and Edinson Cavani, their attacking unit would rival Madrid's.

"Cavani, Neymar and Mbappe would mean to win many titles, notably the Champions League. It would be like having Real's BBC [Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo]," he said.

I suppose we could always buy Mbappé and then loan him back to Monaco for twelve months !!??!!??. :o :o

It wouldn't be the first time we've done this sort of thing. :roll: :roll: :roll:
