It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[SouthStandStander]

This is all part of the plan.
I have been thinking about it. Why release a
a statement at 1pm informing the world that there is no €700m release clause anymore, even going as far as copy and pasting lines from the contract.
I reckon its so city have the proof when putting a bid in for him that he €700m release clause does not exist.
I expect a very public bidding for Messi from City with leaks to certain journos. This will be played out in the media. The world knows that there is no €700m release clause and Messi only has 10 months till he ends his contract. Barca will be pushed into a corner, eventually accepting a bid of around €100m.

@BillyShears anyway Ahsan, any info on the other 2 possible signings?

As @tolmie's hairdoo says ... another piece has been moved on the board. It’s just moved to a different square. The desire to win the game is still very much there. We just need to checkmate a different way.

don’t play chess, so what’s he saying in plain English please?

Koulibaly and a 'mystery' is all I can say. Whilst half the world expects it to be a left back, personally I think their target is another goal scorer/forward. But others think it'll be a CM.

It's been a weird year, and a weird transfer window so anything could happen!

Let it go.

no thanks. In all business its about negotiations and protecting yourself in tricky situations, especially with the cash flow side. No way khaldoon will be sat there saying ah well, thats that.

Its only a month left before the window closes and we have to shift out:
1. Angelino
2. Zinchenko
3. Otamendi
4. Either Stones or Garcia

We still havent sorted the situation with Koulibaly and LB. Come on Txiki, sort this out.

A month.

We've been linked with a fair few midfielders yet no left backs really

We could be waiting for Aouar to get over his Covid, it's only been a week since he tested positive.

Khaldoon to Bartomeu explaining what happens if they keep Messi until next Summer ...

Both @tolmie's hairdoo and @BillyShears have said they are still hearing this might still have some twist yet.

The twist is, therw is no twist.
