As much as sanchez is a very good player, I do think he gets overrated. Willian and Pedro both get underrated, but I would take them above sanchez. I feel their all around game is better imo. 

I think both Willian and Pedro are very good players but neither at their best is as good as Sanchez at his best. At his best Sanchez is a world class player.

Not to mention his stats in comparison to theirs.

    I'm a twat for having a difference of opinion? Shut it you bigot. 

    You sure have a short memory, you name your profile "rip Mourinho", slating a man that won more for us than anyone else in our history, and you call another that pulled us through our times of trouble "dead weight". 

    Would be happy to debate others opinions, but when you have such dis-respectful opinions you can do one.

    Sanchez is arsenal's main goal provider. We have Hazard, Pedro/Willian and now Morata. Sanchez wouldn't fit in here without displacing one of Hazard or Morata. He is a right footed player, so he would be most comfortable up top centrally or on the left side cutting in. In City's side they could play him centrally or on the left as they have players which can be easily displaced up top.

    Sanchez has played most of his career on the right wing. It was only last season that Arsenal moved him up top and the only reason they did that was because Giroud wasn't a consistent enough striker. If Sanchez was to join, he would fit perfectly on the right wing for us. I like Pedro, but Sanchez is better than him in almost every area.

    Do you think if we made either Willian or Pedro our main goal provider, either could reach Alexis's numbers? Of course not. He's a better player than either of them, that's a fact.

    disrespectful is one word ffs. Not even sure whether to reply to this because of that alone. I adored Mourinho first time around. Second time around he did far more harm than good just to grab a cheap trophy and boost his own ego a bit. This thread however isn't about that. Willian hardly pulled us through our time of need, we were still at the bottom of the table with him performing pmsl. Sacking Mourinho got us through our time of need. Pipe down kiddo, you're boring me.

    Strange. Sanchez played his first season at Arsenal on the right wing and smashed in 25 goals. He'd certainly replace Willian's work rate and Pedro's eye for goal. 

     

    Just a shame this transfer will never happen.

    i don't remember that, but that's the 2015/16 season? by his stats that season he scored 13 goals and got 4 assists. pedro scored 9 goals and got 9 assists last season which was his first full season here. not a huge difference in stats tbh. sanchez seems a much stronger player playing as the main goal provider in a team. i could be wrong though.

    Not wading into the handbag throwing here, but I wouldn't call the PL a 'cheap trophy'. I agree Mourinho was tiresome at times in his second spell, but he still won us the league following a comparatively long spell in our recent history without challenging for the title

    Fair enough. As i said i didn't want to get into this discussion as i've had it many times over the years on various threads and it distracts from the original point lol. In my opinion he did a lot things that hurt us in the long run such as selling useful squad players, players with potential, mentally and physically burning out our players and training a lot of Hazard's flair out of him so that he'd come back and defend. In the media he wasn't the same charismatic gentle and seemed to see the world was against him. In my eyes he was a hero in his first stint. Since the Madrid job he seems like a broken man. I also think we could have won the league the year before if it wasn't for all his 'little horse' shenanigans.

    He also played RW the year before and hit 16 goals and 8 assists. Pedro got 7 goals and 2 assists in 2015/16.

    And might have been relegated if it wasnt for him. Willian has always put in 100% through thick and thin, would quite happily call a player dead weight if they clearly don't make the effort and look to walk as soon as things dont go their way, but Willian is a Chelsea man and deserves a lot more respect. 

    But what does a "bigot" like me know?

    As for Mourinho, i never really liked him and wasn't that disappointed when he left, both times, but i respected him and recognised what he achieved for the club. What you are saying is that you went off someone because their performance took a dip, what if our current players had a bad run would, you turn on them and forget everything they had achieved for us. I know i wouldn't.

    Would have been relegated if it wasn't for him pmsl. Truly laughable. The rest of the team started performing and pulled us through that season, not just one player.

    I didn't like Mourinho when he was winning a league title and you then say i went off him because of a dip? Bizarre understanding by you.

     

    Anyway, no one wants this blocking up this thread. If you want to continue spouting drivel, feel free to PM me and discuss this further. 

    we certainly not going to pay £70-80m signing fee and 400k a week to sanchez when he wouldn't even be our best player.

    No, he referred to you as a twat because you called Willian, who was probably the only one pulling his weight during that season, dead weight. There are other ways to describe Willian, dead weight is not one of them, and is a very strange and inexplicable comment.
