we wont get sanchez

[Cuthbert]

Why not?

[Ol’ Qwerty Bastard]

just dont think it would happen.

first of all, if you're sanchez and have the choice of going basically anywhere in the world, why would you pick United? he could've already forced a move to City if he wanted to.

imo he would be smart to go back to spain, real madrid maybe. better chance of winning and better chance of getting more money.

If it's money he wants he will go to Abu Dhabi FC.

Honestly if it were me and I was already set for life, I'd like to think I'd pick somewhere I'd be adored and do what Maradona did.

Newcastle, Rangers, Tottenham. Somewhere like that and make history with one of those clubs. If you could win the league with the latter two and just one cup with the first you'd be a club legend while getting paid very well. It would be something money can't really buy.

I know it will never happen btw.

So if I was Sanchez I'd probably go abroad somewhere. Played in Italy already, maybe back there.

Also Harry Kane is just awesome.

What more can be said? If he stays in England he gets Shearer's record and going by his comments that's what he intends to do.

He has to turn up for England this summer.

i’m with you on the Maradona thing

imagine something like bringing Villa back to the top

for me it would be Canada back to the world cup, we can get smashed there for all i care. but just to help bring them there would be the dream.

How do you feel knowing it could be decades before you see Canada at a World Cup?

I feel bad for Scottish fans under 25. They used to be a good team with some genuinely world class players. Now look. Haven't qualified for anything in 20 years.

[Ol’ Qwerty Bastard]

doesn’t really bug me because we’ve always been ****e. imagine it would be harder knowing there was a time period when your team was decent and then seeing them fall off.

thing is too i dont have much of attachment to any of the canadian players. something like England winning the world cup would be exciting to me because of how i rate players like Kane, Alli, Walker, Lallana, etc

with Canada it’s like we’ve never really deserved to go anywhere and outside of Henry and Hoilet i cant think of any players over the past few years who have actually done anything in a fairly major league. even then they were mainly just reserve team extras.
