Did I trigger your inner snowflake petal?

Why would you assume I was triggered?

I didnt make an assumption. I asked a question.

Why did you ask why I thought he was African?

I'd say you had your finger on the trigger pal

Sane wasn't getting in the team the majority of the time he was fit, that was one of his gripes.

You are supposing we are having to buy a replacement. We are not buying a replacement for Sane.

His book value at the club is roughly £7.5m per year, so holding him to his contract technically results in us offsetting that next year, not a huge amount, but certainly not a free transfer black hole per se.

If we don’t replace Sané directly we’re still going to need a forward, whether Jesus plays more on the left we still need another player to rotate with Aguero. It looks like Lautaro Martinez is off to Barca so he won’t be the one.

Maybe I'm reading more into this than I should but are you saying that's why he was omitted from the WC squad because he was about to sign an extension?

Partly, yes. This has been a coordinated effort with plenty of characters behind the scenes.

They said Leroy's head also wasn't in the right place because his partner was pregnant, it wasn't that. Remember all that advice Leroy suddenly started getting in the public domain from Bayern players about a period of reflection?

Bayern were succession planning for it - to suggest moves only transpired after Robben and Ribery suddenly became injury prone is hilarious.

The pair had been injury prone their entire careers!!

The reality is a little more simple. They had wingers coming to the end of the road and Bayern decided Sane was one of the players they wanted.

Did it with Gotze at Dortmund, two years out.

I don't know mate, you brought it up so I had to ask why? perhaps you knew something about him? it's was so random how you threw the question out there, its not something you see everyday on blue moon. I was just asking a simple question, I'm not sure why you are on the edge.

I don't get it. Why are you triggered by the question I asked? I was only asking mate! you called me a snow flake but a simple question has you on total meltdown, its crazy!

I'm having a bit of craic pal.

Bayern and the German NT are almost at war not helping each other out. There were even threats by Bayern to not release German players for the NT anymore. You go to Germany and say this theory, people would just stare open mouthed, or laugh. It's just as farfetched as a claim that the Sheikh is actually extraterrestrial.

Yep, of course they are. Remind me again who is Bayern's team doctor and also the national team doctor?

You are deflecting. I stated City offered Sane a new deal before the World Cup in 2018 - a full year before you claimed Bayern showed any interest.

The only thing far-fetched about your assertions is that Bayern suddenly decided last summer that Sane was the player they wanted.

He was being represented by his parents and they went straight to them in 2018, prompting City to offer him a new deal.

I think he's from India. Libat is an anagram of Balti.
