Bye bye then

Not at all, I genuinely thought, or rather hoped, we could use it to help out, a bit like having rich parents.

lol - Tornado Pilot my arse

I do understand the stance City take but sooner or later we're going to have to start paying what clubs want if we want these players. It's the way the the market is going.

How many seasons has this been said now?

According to the Guardian, City have been put off by Leicester's £75m+ valuation of Maguire, moving United in pole position

At that price, they're welcome to him.

It’s not so much a valuation more an indication that they neither want or need to sell. My guess would be the player hasn’t demanded that he leaves therefore they’re not even listening to anything below what they see as enough to replace him if he did leave

Correct. 90mil is not a negotiation. It is them saying we've not intention to sell, we don't need to and the player hasn't really indicated he wants to leave, especially to United. But if you put 90mil on the table, they would not turn it down

I saw Ake when they hammered Brighton in April and he was excellent, the best player on the pitch by miles. I know it's only a one-off game, and Brighton were shit, but he impressed me enough to think he'd fit in well.

I'm actually quite glad they copy our transfer targets. Listening to united fans gloat about 'gazumping' us for players and then seeing them flop brings me enormous satisfaction.

Hear hear to this. Payback is soooo sweet.

It seems united transfer policy is to get city linked targets with the view point that the player must be good if city want him and that's why they keep floping at united.

Rather than rebuilding the squad methodically they keep on doing this, paying stupid wages and transfer fee. Long may this stupid transfer policy continue till they can no longer afford it.

Ake and Cancelo for one Harry Maguire ..........
