What did he say about the 6 deals that he predicted?

im amazed that anyone is still falling for his bullshit. Said we'd have Ait-Nouri, Camavinga and Aouar confirmed by now right? Said they were all 100% as far as I can remember. Can't remember who the other three were.

EDIT:

"Houssem Aouar Thiago Almada Rayan Ait-Nouri Amad Traoré These 4 players have signed their Man City contract."

Were his words. Plus Camavinga and Ithattern coming in too. Lol.
 
Perhaps Share options are a very clever way of Messi taking a very active interest in the future performance of CFG whilst he is playing for teams within the group

if we say that ADUG’s investment has grown at least 10-15 times in the 12 years since the takeover, what’s to say we couldn’t double the current Value in 5 years, especially with the best player ever as the figurehead

Messi gets the option to purchase shares at the end of his contract at the current fair value, city account for that cost in their P&L , say £100m

the options would vest after 5 years if the price has doubled , Messi buys and sells his shares and trousers £100m in whatever tax haven he’s living in once he retires

I had to save it, just for how ridiculous it was. This is in addition to categorically denying we were at all interested in Koulibaly btw. For everyone's reading pleasure:

Fuck it was fun while it lasted, never wanted him anyway.
The transfer guru has spoken. Lock thread, throw away the key and kill it with fire!
 
Ezzy says the messi deal isn’t happening

Except the point is it is pretty much impossible to rock solid sure unless a) he's taking a 50% paycut and we aren't paying a fee or b) we are "creating" c.€200m of player sale profits. The point on Castles podcast that I responded to suggested using shares could never be "rock solid" because it has never been tried before.

So your simple analysis is probably wishful thinking. And that is why some of us are interested. In fact, given there is no debate as to whether he's actually going to improve us or be fun to watch, how we can actually afford him whilst protecting the next 10 years of success is some people's key interest in the days before we sign him. It is mine.
I’ll trust the professionals who are running our club.

Some very gullable, naive people in this world and a lot of em seem to frequent this forum.
 
The regulations for FFP are in place to monitor the profitability and to ensure clubs are sustainable. In other words FFP focuses on the profit and loss account of clubs.
Shares affect the balance sheet and have nothing to do with the P&L.

UEFA or anybody when monitoring FFP cannot turn around to us and say let's look at everything else. If they started looking at balance sheets then Barca, United etc would be completely fucked.

The selling of shares to employees is quite a normal business transaction. The only difference is in football once again is that our owners are ahead of the curve.
That’s totally naive. Any device used to circumvent FFP is bound to be scrutinised. (Whether we’d risk it is another matter.)

Everything about that post screams 18 years old, plays football manager, does nowt else. I'm sure they're a nice person in real life, but its pure childish fantasy.
