Sanchez to Barca. it's official, at last!!


Now, as you know if you r ead this regularly, I do not support Barcelona, however, I am happy he signed there. Out of the clubs interested, I think it was the best choice. Move to Man City, and you will get drowned out by another half a dozen world class footballers and will never see with the subs board with your number on it telling you to come on. Inter...well, I don't like Inter.

Barcelona is the team that will most suit his style of play. He is fast and plays interesting and attractive football, and Barcelona are the best in the world at doing that, followed by Arsenal. He'll also get the chance to play along players who are very much like him in Messi, Pedro, however in another sense, I can't see how he's going to fit in. Somebody will have to make way. Barcelona play 4-3-3 normally, like so:

Villa-Messi-Pedro

Iniesta-Busquets-Xavi

So just how is Sanchez going to fit in. It will mean either Pedro or Villa dropping to the bench, and I imagine neither will be very happy. Of course, you could play Sanchez off the bench, but that really wouldn't suit him either. We'll have to see what happens.

In other transfer news, Gervinho has completed his move to Arsenal at last, official pictures can be seen on the Arsenal website and Gabriel Heinze has joined Roma from Marseille on a one year deal. Also, Capdevila joins Benfica for two years, Jozy Altidore signs for AZ Alkmaar in Holland and Wigan again loan out, it has to be said, rubbish signing Mauro Boselli to Estudiantes, the club he came from originally. There's a nice little transfer round up for you!!
