Benjamin Mendy

So you'll never believe that Ederson has signed then?

I still don't believe it.

Telegraph reporting that Monaco have rejected our bid and are holding out for £40+m. It would be classic Txiki if he drags it out haggling over a few million for one of our most important signings and leaves the door open for the rags or Chelsea to hijack the deal and wouldn't they take great joy in doing that to us!! (Van Persie) . I still think to this day if we'd acted quicker & more decisively Isco would be a City player now, when you think how much we've wasted on some average players it p*sses me off we do this for our main targets for the sake of a few million and honestly I DO NOT RATE TXIKI ... Longer you p*ss about more chance other parties talk to player and put ideas in their head

I assume you havn`t yet seen the Chairmans yearly appraisal and who actually has the final say on transfers and the fees ?

Mmmh ..... I see what you did there.

Not until I see it on the os ;)

Ederson was in Manchester, his club already announced the sale, we all know the formal announcement is delayed because of third party ownership stuff. There's absolutely nothing finished about Mendy or Walker. Everything says clubs are still negotiating.

Kinda surprised that nothing happened on this front during the weekend. Hoped we would come to an agreement with Monaco by Saturday with a medical on Sunday. Oh well. Don't see anything happening until 14th June now.

You won't, not to your specs anyway.

 

[SilverFox2]

He also opined City must win Prem league next season otherwise Pep will lose his job

Now that is something he has plenty of experience with so perhaps he is hijacking the interview to try to talk with authority for a change.

Oh my mistake Txiki doesn't do the legwork and f*cking about after all...

 

[Dax777]

Maybe Pep wants to see what happens with Bernat at Bayern :-)

 

[MCFC_4Heatons]

Oh Dear. So in his shoes, what would you do differently whilst adhering to your bosses constraints?

You must actually be sat in at these meetings and have a direct line into City eh? Hello boss, we need to offer anothet £2m or whatever it is to get the deal over the line otherwise we risk losing the player to a rival.

He will be given the figures to work within.Quite a simple plan,but one that is directed to him by his superiors.I take it you don`t work yourself,otherwise you would have understood the problems if people do as they wanted to,instead of following some basic rules,given to him by Khaldoon and Soriano.

eh? I asked you what you would have done whilst adhering to your remit- your response is nonsensical

Surely we havent discarded the Swales, Allison, Daley model. It worked so well.

I wonder whatever happened to those gate receipts ? ;)

I'd rather not say

Hahahaa.

*shakes fist in the air in begrudging defeat while secretly hoping Ederson holds up a new home shirt in a bit of shameless promotion by the club...*

Yes what happened to my £2 ? Not sure i quite paid for Daleys left sock but then again not sure Swales did either.

@SkyKaveh: Manchester City making significant progress with deal for Southampton left back Ryan Bertrand after Monaco demanded £40m for Benjamin Mendy.....
