Ed002 has posted a response on the Arsenal site, where he states he believes Sanchez is only interested in joining city, with them being able to challenge for league and CL honours in the next 3/ 4 years. As Ed002 is 99.9% of the time bang on I think we can dismiss this one unfortunately.
Oh he also mentions the ludicrous salary Zlatan is on is a slight hinderence. Why the hell was he given another contract. He's utterly useless.

“He’s utterly useless†were you saying this last season when he was the only one banging in goals?
For the record Maze did not want ZI to sign a new deal due to the fact he could be stagnating the development of MR and AM but to label him as “useless†is nonsensical and stupid. Twaddle.

I would say he was poor last season, should have had double the goals he scored. He missed some sitters.
13 Jan 2018 10:13:17
He wasn't poor though. Revisionism at it's best.

I don't really get this whole he more chance of winning stuff with city thing as far as I can see we've won more than city in recent seasons also yes city look very good this season but I don't really get how that translates as dominance in the near future .
Still they have won nothing yet.

regardless of how he was last year, United were foolish to offer him a contract so early this season. he's fooled them to believe his powers of recovery he looked no where near fit. yet marcos rojo got no headlines from recovering from the same injury.

To give a 36 year old with a torn acl the contract we give ibra seems a strange decision .
Mind you signing him in the first place was a short sighted.

Maze if you weren’t hiding under your rock most of last year you would have seen I said all last season he was a burden on the team. He may of scored a few goals, but he was detrimental the the way we played and we were better when he wasn’t playing. To then give him another 300k a week contract after an acl at the age of 36 is laughable.

Dean, but they have. They’ve won the League twice, an FA Cup and a League Cup, maybe not under Pep but they are competing and winning things.

I was talking about this season Tony I'm pretty fed up with all the talk of fabulous man city.
It's like overnight we've become some piddly little club that can't attract the players we want because it's such an awful proposition to play for united.
I will probably get hammered for this by the usual crowd but imo we are the biggest club in the world and for me the choice of playing for a tin pot club with a half empty stadium and 5 minutes of history vs playing for historically the biggest club certainly in this country there is no choice.
{Ed002's Note - They want success and don't care for a history lesson.}

Signing him in the first place wasn't an issued me. Did very well IMO, scored a lot of goals, won trophies but when he tore his ACL, to renew his contract was extremely baffling.
13 Jan 2018 13:07:02
And Manchester United all of a sudden have no chance of success ed?
Why?
{Ed002's Note - That is a stupid comment and not what I said.}

Stand that is fine if you claim ‘oh but Maze I said this months ago blah blah blah yawn’ but why does that render a great champion of the game “utterly useless�
The simple answer is it does not. The new deal was a poor decision but your remarks are complete twaddle.
13 Jan 2018 13:31:30
Don't think he said that, it was more of Sanchez wanting to win trophies and city being better placed to offer those, but if we get a rb, lb, SMS and a replacement for ibra, I don't see why we can't do the same.
