Rodrigo Hernandez - Atletico confirm deal - p192

[domalino]

genuinely didn't know they were that bitter about us going for Rodrigo to be honest!

They're furious because he was the returning academy kid, who came back because he loved Atleti and he was absolutely amazing last season, the best midfielder in Spain and without the release clause would have gone for a lot more.

He was also given the 14 shirt which is one of their special ones, so to leave 11 months after joining them, especially with the team in upheaval, has not gone down well.

I was pretty sure paying a release cause to La Liga was standard, you don't pay it to the club

It is standard.

We need one of you photoshop wizards to do a "Welcome to Manchester" billboard type thing, similar in style to the one for the golfer.

Atletico are bitter. Fuck them. Tbh, I have never really liked them for some reason except one time when they gave us Aguerooooo.

It is standard.

Its not standard. We paid Nolito's clause straight to Celta Vigo for example. Its only standard dealing with Bilbao.

Spanish media are saying the same: refused to deal with us, City had to pay clause to LaLiga as a result.

I'm starting to believe there may be some truth in the rumours that we are in for him.

No. Clearly, its a fake account. Atletico knows fuck all.

Pjanic being a defensive midfielder is definitely up for debate.
