I'm not saying Theo is the solution to all our problems but if you look at his performances, 37 appearances (29 starts + 8 Substitute) he has totalled 19 goals. This represents 0.51 goals per game. Sanchez meanwhile has achieved 0.58 goals per game based on 51 appearances and 30 goals.

I appreciate statistics like this don't paint the whole picture but I think it's important to realise there has to be a point where enough is enough. I think the money Sanchez (and Ozil) are holding out for is nothing short of greed and the club and the fans are being held to ransom. I genuinely believe money can be better spent than giving these two astronomical contracts.

The problem is 83 what other reason can we offer them to stay?
They have options who can offer money and much more while we don't really have anything other than money to offer right now.
Personally I'd let them go on friendly terms and thank them for thier service and accept the situation for what it is.
Let the players go who don't want to be here plus those who simply haven't been able to deliver on a regular basis and start again with what's Lett.
Totenham didn't sign a host of star names they built a team around the best of what they had after losing Bale and Modric who were just as big as loss as Mesut and Sanchez, we shouldn't be to proud to learn from anyone else even Spurs imo.
In fact the similarity between us now and Spurs then is uncanny, no champions league football to offer and best players leaving, let's learn from where they went wrong and also from what Poch has got so right.

we don't sell players for 100 mill, we will wait till the last week of the transfer window and sell one or both for the fee 70-80 mill. and sign some youngster who will be good in 2 years time fail to build a team around him and repeat that story again. we did not build around cesc and rvp now ozil and sanchez, I've seen groundhog day. good movie. just too repetetive.

Agreed completely 62. I think when you have players like Ozil and Sanchez they demand the ball so when you have a coach as one dimensional as arsene and two players who you know are going to be getting the ball, it becomes very easy for opposing players. A better balanced team of players who want to be there and want to play for the shirt would be interesting! Ramsey or Ox at No10 would be worth a look.

Also can't help but feel Lucas Perez is worth another season, give him some game time. Every time he's played he's delivered!

I never understood the Perez signing it looked and still does look like a desperation signing but having said that He's here now and the lad has done ok so I see no benefit in taking a loss on him without giving every chance first, imo the signing was our mistake not his so we owe him a chance.
