No he’s not as good as Hazard and I get the rest of what you are saying, but even with all the mitigating factors he’s not just a lazy show pony, he’s very productive, lazy show pony.
Bale was lazy. I’m just a bit surprised nobody fancies buying him and turning him into an auxiliary striker a la Bale, Ronaldo (again, appreciate he’s not that level).

Sanchez left wing maybe. Mourinho doesn't care about potential anyway.

True. Those three must surely be thinking wtf though, privately. No way they're all going to accept regular bench slots.

I don't know but please tell me it's something bad.

I came here to say just that. My god that was awful.
It’s a tad annoying that they’ve signed a player who’d stroll in to our starting XI.
United didn’t have a better team on paper than us at the start of the season and they probably still don’t, but they get results, win trophies and come next season what’s the betting they’ll have the better side? Frustrating for us. Hard to compete with them figures though I guess.
I think he’ll be a great signing for them.

He'll do well for them but will he be the difference between winning domestic cup or winning the league/CL? Time will tell, but if he isn't, then they've blown a fortune on someone who will lose all value by the end of his contract.

Sanchez is an upgrade on all of those, he can play as a wide forward in a 433 or AM in 4231 and as a striker in either.

Sure he's an upgrade right now, that's why I'm assuming he'll start in place of one of those three. I meant more that another talented youngster is going to have their development stunted because Mourinho can only work with the finished article.

I wish people would stop saying this (no offence) money killed the game years ago.

A new low for Arsenal. 12 years after moving to the Emirates and they’re still getting pushed around by Utd.

Just seen that... Funniest thing is I don't believe that they even sing the "My eyes have seen the glory..." bit...
He's played our version!

None taken, and you're right, it's just that he earns more in a week than it takes many people 15 years to earn. That's plain wrong.

It's what they deserve after letting their best player enter the last year of his contract. The Campbell incident was, aside from everything else, fantastic in that Levy vowed to never let that happen to us again, and it hasn't.
