To be fair matt I think Bayern doth protest too much, if they were confident of getting the deal why are they mouthing off so much isntead of just being calm and quiet?The silence is deafening really on this one from our side.
Bayern seemingly making big noises and disappointingly were letting them with not a word back.
Just let him go if he wants out.
We're securing several contracts but can't seem to get this one done.
like no one really knows what's happening with the contract situation, the same can be said about what our owners think of this Bayern situation.they are doing a good job because our owners are letting them, Bayern ex players and even players in the team are pushing on him, our owners should take the stance and say player has been tapped up. then lets see what happens
Leroy might be on holiday. Txiki might be on holiday. They might both be on holiday.City should be blunt with Leroy. Sign another contract in the next week or you are up for sale.
All good points but he’s had 18 months to sign.Leroy might be on holiday. Txiki might be on holiday. They might both be on holiday.
There might not even be a contract ready to sign as the last offer might not be there if he’s rejected it. Contracts take time to create and include legalities and periods of negotiation on both sides. They’re not just a piece of paper with “SIGN HERE................” written on it.
An offer can be made and it can take weeks to go through an agent or lawyer looking over it and then a counter offer from the player will come back. Then the club will take time deciding on their next move.
City will never give a player a week’s notice.
All good points but he’s had 18 months to sign.
I’ve been thinking about what to do in my work life for the last year and I’m giving myself another year to get something sorted.All good points but he’s had 18 months to sign.
We have three other top class international wide players and who knows how many other Sancho’s and Diaz’s looking at the long line between them and a first team place. If he goes we won’t even need to sign a replacement.
With hindsight I really wish we’d swerved Mahrez.
Again good points but City can not give him another year as Bayern or any other club that want to buy him will be getting him on the cheep. I rate him as highly as the next City fan but I don’t want City to be fucked over.I’ve been thinking about what to do in my work life for the last year and I’m giving myself another year to get something sorted.
You don’t just make life decisions at the click of a finger!
This is the biggest decision Leroy will ever make in his life. He’ll be weighing up absolutely every scenario that could come from all four decisions he could make (have a full career at City; stay at City until the next contract comes to a year left when he’s, say 26; stay at City until his final year of this contract; or leave this Summer).
He, and his agent and family, will be thinking about all aspects of football from: “how long will Pep be at City?” “will City sustain their top side status when Pep goes?” “will the Premier League bubble burst?” “will any other league catch up to the Prem?” “is it even worth leaving the Prem?” “would Germany be the league to go to if I am to leave the Prem?” “do I like Manchester?” “do I like England?” “how much money will I earn from this next contract?” “when will I be able to negotiate again on the new contract?” “will I earn more elsewhere?” “will I play enough at City?” “will I play more elsewhere?” “what will I win at City?” “what will my status be at the club?” “will I win the Balon d’Or with City?”
Pep has said there has been a contract on the table for monthsThe silence is deafening really on this one from our side.

Yet the player closest to him in the squad, Ilkay, has said he’s confident Leroy will stay at City.The silence is deafening really on this one from our side.

Really? He is under contract for a further two yearsCity should be blunt with Leroy. Sign another contract in the next week or you are up for sale.
Stop being sensible and using factsReally? He is under contract for a further two years
You simply can't allow a player of his worth go into the last 2 years of a contract, this time next year his worth will be 50% less, even for a club of our wealth that is unacceptable.Stop being sensible and using facts

That's coz our front office probably realizes he may be leaning towards leaving.The silence is deafening really on this one from our side.

This time next year IF he doesn't sign a new contract his value will be drastically reduced, if you don't believe that your dreaming.How do you figure that?
