Thought it would have been hilarious if Liverpool didn't want him and never put in a bid, but they did in the end Totally makes sense though. He's probably on a fair bit of money at Monaco anyways, knows the team and area, knows the language, and can afford to wait for a move to a club that doesn't look like it's going downhill fast. Nobody wants to jump on to a sinking ship after all |
Arsenal are hardly a sinking ship and people need to get over that fact. They made some good purchases at the start of the season, one being a good striker who shows excellent potential in the prem but no, lose to Liverpool and "Arsenal are dead boys".
My issues come from players like Sanchez, is he that unhappy? If he was then he wouldn't play for them, he'd force a move. No, he's happy to take the rediculous wages he already gets paid to play for one of the most recognisable teams in the world along side world class internations. If they brought in Lemar... Lascelles upfront with Ozil, Sanchez and Lemar behind him? That's hardly 'sinking' but the players don't see that, they see what they could get at other clubs and cry for wages.
Plus remember, it's Liverpool and well, as a saints fan I'd prefer players to move to a club with actual potential to win something like Man City, Man U or Chelsea than Southampton B team.
Hmm, pie.
