Sanchez just handed in a transfer request at Arsenal and Barca has apparently agreed a deal around €150m for Coutinho. This window is beyond insane

Same as al jazeera were last time. Never materialised.
BT and Sky make a loss on their sport, where they make it up is on their broadband deals. Amazon don't have this. They might bid for one of the packages but i doubt they'll get anything.

The next deal there might be a slight bump or there might be a loss on domestic rights.
The one after though might be different. With brexit the eu ruling of seperate tv packages might be scrapped. Meaning that sky and bt could fight for the whole lot. It could be make or break for them.
But they do have their prime membership and are just introducing prime sports which only consists of Tennis at the moment

Could be a super busy couple days for arsenal and pool now.
Probably screws with our wait till everyone else finishes up strategy.

As i said sky and bt make a loss from their sports packages. They make this up from the broadband. The broadband doesn't cost bt much to run as nearly everyone already has access to it. So the £20 per month goes mostly in their pocket.
Amazon prime is already making a loss, this loss will be even bigger if they got football. Amazon might be happy to swallow that as they make enough off their other business but why bother?
Bt and sky intentionally make a loss so that you buy their broadband which they make a profit from. Amazon will get little benefit from football.

Wenger selling Ox to get the extra pennies for Lemar?! And a centre back maybe? To clone Vieira and Petit?!

Let's face it, if City get Sanchez, they walk the league, even with the dodgy defence.
really don't think the Goons can sell him this window....fans would go bananas. Better to keep him and let him go on a free (probably at that point he moves to Paris which is better for l'Arse and Wenger).

Didn't think Liverpool would be able to get Lemar, but if they get him and VVD for what they sell Coutinho for then that's a big improvement for them.

I think Sunday may have changed the thinking at Arsenal. The dressing room is toxic, they need to start again.

This probably sounds a bit odd but I reckon if they get Johnny Evans they've got a very good chance of winning. Could bring the cool stability they are missing bar Kompany (when fit).

That's on Wenger. It's no accident that Arsenal have failed to develop Walcot, Wilshere, Ox, Bellerin and countless others over the past decade or so. Selling Chelsea Ox was mind numbingly stupid. Wenger has completely lost the plot.

Agreed with most of that but surely they'd be better off getting a transfer fee for him now rather than losing him for nothing in 12 months time, the stupid thing was letting him run his contract down, something which they keep doing to their players. The mis-management of players at Arsenal F.C is shocking.

£60m odd on Oxlade-Chamberlain and Drinkwater is terrible business. I'd want neither anywhere near our side to be honest.
Not value for money, but Oxlade-Chamberlain would be a useful option on the bench. He's versatile and I imagine Poch could help him progress...he's still fairly young.

BREAKING: Atletico Madrid have signed Diego Costa for €45m & will loan him to Everton until January

Latest twitter rumor, seems to make sense.

Let's be honest when have that tactic ever worked for us? Madrid called wanting rid of VdV 7 years ago and ever since then we seem to cross over fingers hoping for the same..
