Not much help that when Laporta has form for leaking to the press.

He’s no better than Bartomeu in that regard

 

[BillyShears]

Yep. Exactly what I was told and posted on here a few weeks ago. Dortmund are desperate to sell to anyone but us.

Good for Dortmund. I'd love to know how they intend to not sell to us if/when Haaland tells Raiola and his father that he wants to join City.

The reasoning that this is all so very personal for Dortmund and that they absolutely despise City just seems ludicrously far fetched. If they hate City so much do they equally hate Barcelona who tapped up Dembele before he went on strike to force a move? How many clubs do Dortmund hate? Are they really such a special club that they can sit in an ivory tower telling their buy to sell squad that there are in fact places those players can't go because the CEO doesn't like the colour of their skin or their money.

It is bollocks. Haaland will go where he wants. The noise is just noise.

This place is going to go into meltdown if we dont sign Haaland. Feel sorry for any other striker that comes in

Danny won't give a fuck mate :)

Particularly if his demands include playing for City

You’re getting a bit too excited with these Haaland and Barcelona tweets, friend. This Laporta propaganda one is from twelve hours ago. Old news already

 

[doobyedoobye]

I like this Laporta chap. He's literally bringing Barca back from the dead with his own bare hands..

Gotta love that article

“he wants those attending at the Camp Nou post-pandemic to have something on the pitch that excites them.”

I’m not joking

Like the crap dias had to deal with. Everyone changed their tune pretty quickly

 

[WRicko]

Do we have a deal with SLB that we take their young stars while giving them our aging ones?

I know it’s hard to tell how good Aguero might be seen as a bit of risk due to age injuries and not playing but I am sure he will be better by the end of the season and worth more than Portugal and that wage figure massive come down when you consider the what some players earn past there peak these days mind you there is Covid carnt imagine we can get him to go anywhere he is not our player but does seem odd

TH hinted at it this morning somewhere too - think it was in this thread.

Either way, agreed, not sure why Dortmund think they're above any club. Perhaps that attitude is why they've become a feeder club to Bayern solidifying a one-team league.

If anyone fancies something to listen to and can bear the sound of mine and @BillyShears' voices, then we're having a big ol' chat about transfers at 11.30am on my channel! Come and join us :)

 

[Academica]

We aren't. The circus is all around it.

Does anybody seriously think we have waited until the start of April to not present our terms to the player and ascertain that interest?

We will know the landscape and react

Do you care to explain what “flying around publicly” means? They were on a private jet. Invisible jets have yet to be invented

Yes it's all been very hush hush

 

[WRicko]

Confused by Barcelona and to some extent Real being linked with Harland they should not be spending that sort of money given Covid and there debts

No way Barcelona are getting him unless Messi is going

Given the Aguero news we must have someone of real quality lined up unless we are going to get another left field signing and perhaps play more false 9 would still have to be a quality striker tho just less well known

Good stuff. The last two have been really good and flew by even though they were close to an hour long.

 

[lonestay]

Barca or Real are always going to be linked to players it's just tradition, they have to give the impression they are still relevant even if the players are out of their financial league at present .

You haven’t got one of those squeaky Joe Pasquale voices have you? Or a Brummie accent?
