Keep Alexis or buy Mahrez and Lemar?

Postby GoonerAlexandre » Sun Jul 23, 2017 4:38 pm

I think, realistically, out transfers for this season are over, unless we sell Sanchez

So would you rather have Lemar and Mahrez on the wings, or just Sanchez? Personally would rather have two very good players, than one great one.

Voted for Alexis staying.

We won't be playing with 12 players once Alexis leaves so only one of Lemar or Mahrez will be playing unless we change formation and make our defense and central midfield more vulnerable.

Neither Lemar nor Mahrez are able to give us what Alexis does.

Keep Alexis and buy Lemar.

Both are very possible.

Only if we are allowed to play with 12 players. Otherwise replacing one player with two makes no sense.

You can bin Welbeck/Walcott and got back to 4 at the back

You could play Lemar in midfield where he'd be an instant improvement over all our options

Buy mahrez and lemar 100% whats the point of keeping alexis for one season trying to make top 4 only to leave for free. Mahrez andclemar are technical players. We need more of them

+1 and make them sign 8 year deals each. Will defo miss Sanchezs ability but I'm to far down the road to be bothered with drawn out transfer sagas and sulking.

Been there too many times..

Depends on where he goes.

If PSG offer £50m, accept it and reinvest the money. It's either that or he leaves on a free transfer in a year, probably to a domestic rival.

If we get no acceptable offers from abroad then we shouldn't sell him to an English club under any circumstances (bar a £100m bid or something stupid).

I am too arsed with these everlasting sagas. I would buy Mahrez and a solid CM if we get a bid in excess of 50 million pounds for Sanchez

Keep Alexis at whatever cost. If you keep him and add Lemar and Lacazette there is a faint hope we can challenge for the league. Without him we have no shot. Who cares if he leaves on a free next season. I for one don't think he's got too many seasons left in him and it may be a blessing not to be stuck with paying him 300k a week for the next 5 years.

Think long-term mate. Thinking only about this season in isolation, id want Sanchez. He knows the club now so doesn't need to adjust and will hit the ground running.

Next season he's gone and we are then in a market to sign a replacement anyway, but with even more inflated prices than this summer. If we got Lemar and mahrez now, those two, lacazette and the rest of the squad will he fully integrated after a period of finding their feet which would be good while we've got to play farmers instead of top ballers in Europe.
