Ran around like a madman possessed in the last game. I'd like to see that a bit more TBH!!
The spirit of Sanchez compels him.
He did it again! Is this the new normal??

Going to post a caveat to this; he has proven that he can do more than just score with his knew found desire to track back and add some defense to his game, I will go one step further with this and say, scoring aside I think even this late in the day in his career with desire, grit and determination he can improve on all aspects of his game if he wants to, he has that in him, I believe it, just needs to be hungry for it. Man can re-invent his game, then maybe we can start talking world class.I think he is powder puff player, has a talent for goal that predominantly enables him to breeze through life, he will never get stuck in, never be in a war of attrition, Arteta might turn his head for a moment, but I don't think he going to knuckle down for any more than a cursory glance.
His transfer thread has already been locked, hopefully it can stay locked for a while aswell. His already said he is happy here again, he is staying here, does that mean he will re-sign, hope that is the case. It would be great to see him re-sign & stay for another year or 2.
He spoke to french outlet RMC Paraphrasing, "The British press talk sh1t, I am 100% for Arsenal for now"!Has he said that he's staying? I've seen him reference the English media as saying a lot, but not him suggest that he's staying.
Would love it though.
It depends what kind of money we would get for selling him. If we cant get over £40-50m for him then we wouldnt be able to reinvest that money well enough. If he is on board with the project come June then keeping him isnt badProbably knows it’s either mega money at Arsenal or trophies elsewhere.
Not sure whether giving him a big contract is the right choice.
Arteta confirm there no ongoing contract talks with Auba and the club will start discuss it in summer.
This is a different situation. This time it’s not about keeping a player entering his prime. We are talking about whether we should offer a contract to a player who is at the end of his prime.We never learn do we? Discussions should have been coming to an end by now, not starting in the summer. So in the summer, instead of him either being on a new contract or we knowing we have to sell. Just like Özil, Sanchez and Ramsey he will have all the leverage. By then he will have a year or less on his contract too, meaning he will be more tempted to just see out that time and go on a free unless we offer ridiculous wages.
The clowns in charge of contract negotiations should be sacked, they clearly don't know what they are doing.
Arsenal will be in no position to demand that much for a player in the last year of his deal, who will be free in January 2021 to discuss moves with other clubs.If we can get 80m plus for him then we should sell in the summer. Unfortunately we need money to invest in the team and we wont be getting this from our owners, nor our operations.
