So with your logic, go find it yourself.
I didn't use any such logic hahahaha. Would kill to be inside your head right now and see how desperately you're trying to save face.

All it takes is a simple twitter share of the tweet your're looking at to prove your argument of Pep wanting Mahrez since 2016 and I'll stand down.
 
Nar Mahrez goor for the squad rotation but never 75 million not like he’s 20. And for that Jorginho he’s know where near the same amount of energy dihno gives us so there both a massive NO from me!
We have form for making a pigs ear of our transfer strategy when being in a position of strength. Khaldoon said in his interview last week the hierarchy had learnt from past mistakes after winning both titles. We will soon see if that is true.
 
Meanwhile to sum up your arguments for the evening @pudge,

1. Mahrez is in the same bracket as the best wingers in Europe,
2. Pep has wanted Mahrez as his main target since much earlier than Jan 2018.

Top, top stuff.
 
I agree. Not as bad as the 2012 window but we really should bury the rest while we're so onviously superior and with Pep could have serious influence on players wanting to come here. Really should have aimed higher - Neymar, Mbappe, Bale, Hazard standard.
Don’t want hazard mahrez Neymar or Bale if I’m being honest there all selfish players all about me players I want a young player incoming someone exciting like our other 3/4 young forwards we already have. Someone like Mbappe springs to mind.

When did I say number two? You just need to go back to when the January move fell through to read about our previous summers interest, no need to go into my head for it.

You’d really have Neymar or bale at City ?
 
A good player but not good enough for us, not good enough to displace either Sterling or Sane and 75m for a back up is a hell of a lot of cash.
I didn’t really want him in jan,and haven’t really changed my mind but if pep wants him so be it but at the price quoted we are being shafted, £40-50 mill at most for me but meh it’s not my money..

Let’s hope what he says is true.. I sense we got something big lined up for sure all the Jorginho and Mahrez palaver I think is nonsense

I think the club would prefer Mbappe before any other player. But the price would be out our reach and he’s pretty much unattainable at the minute anyway. Mahrez is absolutely class. Anyone saying he isn’t a great winger will undoubtley be proven wrong. He will be hungry to prove himself at bigger club, too.

Hahaha. I can't find a single Sam Lee article saying City are 'Chasing Mahrez' before Jan 2018, even from 2016 summer. And Sam Lee has said on the @93pod before that he doesn't put stuff in print he isn't sure about or only reads from others.

Sorry mate, this tweet isn't going to prove anything.
 
Thank god peps in charge & not some of you guys, we’ve already got a superb team with young players who will only get better next year, we’re planning ahead by slotting Jorginho in for Fernandinho , we’re trying to signing Mahrez who is a former player of the year who’s an excellent player who’ll keep everyone on their toe’s but no, that’s not good enough ....we want Neymar , we want Bale .....clueless...leave it to the experts , pep gets little wrong .

Pep seems to be targeting 100m+ players in Hazard or Mbappe. And also wanted likes of Sanchez and Bonucci before.

Indeed, I've left it to the experts because they very well seem to know whom they want, even if they can't get them.

Fortunately, only young players aren't quite the obsession as some of us like to make it out to be for the experts at City.

He himself says immediately after that tweet that he wrote about it...

I said the club have been chasing Mahrez for three summers, at least; this summer, January and last summer.

You said to prove it as no reliable source had said as much. You included Sam Lee as one of those reliable sources.

I said if you believe him then the interest goes back even further.

You said to proof it by sharing a tweet/article that said as much.

I did.

You don't believe it.

That sums it up really. I don't care for Sam Lee as some kind of oracle. You merely mentioned him as a source you would deem reliable. Again, the interest in Mahrez stems for at least three windows if you go back to just when the move collapsed in January and read about it; the same summer with the Sanchez drama. If you don't want to and instead want to backtrack yourself, be my guest, but no need to go back on your own word just because you don't like what you see.

what does it say pep wants hazard and m bub,neither are available,
 
So if you don't rate Jorginho, who exactly should we be signing to replace Fernandinho?
He looked average against us when we played Napoli doesn’t have any pace to get about the pitch and cover ground like dinho either. Don’t like him.. Not sure who I’d sign as dihno is irreplaceable imo but still has another great season left in him it’s just if he gets injured. for me we would need someone like Kante someone who can provide that energy and gives our back 3/4 that confidence they need!
