WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola on the Alexis Sanchez transfer situation: "He [Sanchez] is still an Arsenal player and it looks like he will go to United, so congratulations and good luck to them.
"My opinion of Alexis remains the same. It was a pleasure to be with him at Barcelona. He has decided to move on to another club and I wish him all the best."
Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez: "When I was talking to Mike Ashley, he told me the takeover would not go through.
"We are doing what we have to do in this transfer window and preparing for the game.
"In terms of training, nothing changes. In terms of the transfer window, we have targets, we have names and we are trying to progress."
