Not a success at Chelsea??Hazard??? Not a success in my opinion
Hahahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa love that one melrose and never heard it before.My grandad used to say turning the pages of the Sun does not amount to reading a newspaper!
Maybe but even Haaland next year would cost us 600k a week I'm not sure we'll ever pay that Daka might have been good but a risk as never playing in a top league beforeAguero on a 1-2 year extention and then worry about getting haaland when he costs less. I think i'd have taken ings in the short term even...if it meant getting haaland next year. Torres just scored a bunch for spain at the euro's playing as a forward...
Not to mention a bevvy of youngsters that we could have chanced(like daka).
Well now that you mention it, Kane does look fucked these daysYep, because no club has ever had two top strikers at the same time lol ..do I really have to spell it out to you? rotation, they would both play a lot of games each and a good chance one will be injured at some point
He did okay at Chelsea, and Chelsea , but us missing out also wasn't any disaster either wed did okay too.Not a success at Chelsea??
Which pretty much sums up my stance: be positive about the top class player that it looks like we will get and which the top brass at the club (including Pep) want, rather than a top class player we won't get, whether for the reasons that the club/Pep don't fancy him, or he just doesn't want to come, or any other reason the fans aren't privy to.He would def sign for City if we could get Dortmund to agree, but it may actually be that Pep fancies Kane more for the way he wants to play. He's got us this far and most of his buys have worked.
It’s double jeopardy for me… I don’t want Kane and I want to boost Spud’s coffers even lessPersonally I’d be happy if we didn’t spend any major money this summer - I don’t think that the transfer market can withstand another year of COVID disruption and our comparative advantage - our finances - will only increase. I have a particular dislike for Spurs so I have no real desire to see us bail them out on the financial side.
Without sounding like a prophet of doom, I would also think that the current wave of COVID may have altered our transfer plans somewhat, given the risk of reduced crowds etc. The outlook now is different from the spring when the vaccine rollout started, and the affordability of some of our transfer targets has probably reduced as a result.
Looks like Happy Hour where you are pal...That is true.
Though my is point missed, I am not criticisim Cityxtra and the job they do
They have tweeted several times today with city news only the two of there post have been shared, the ones with the most untrustworthy sources so, I was ctiticising the repetative sharing of the same bollocks story they link by posters here not them lomking it.
But I seem to have offened you and some with a gif, I am so sorry that it was taken so badly by some.
Spurs are of no threat to us.It’s double jeopardy for me… I don’t want Kane and I want to boost Spud’s coffers even less

My comment was tongue in cheek. Not offended, but my humour not well placed given the 'heat' on this forum today ;-)That is true.

£160m on a 28yr old v £160m on a 20yr old. Both of equal potentialHow have we the poorer deal?
Absolutely. If he doesn't want to play here none of it matters, we must go for kane. (or mbappe but that's my secret wish)How can you spend £160m on a player that doesn’t want to come? I’m pretty sure the club would have evaluated which is the better deal, but if Haaland isn’t 100% commited, that’s a big put off.

Without sounding facetious, I'm pretty certain the people who run our club have got a handle on the economic situation, and if they deem Kane as a viable option, both short and long term, then that's all we need to worry about.Personally I’d be happy if we didn’t spend any major money this summer - I don’t think that the transfer market can withstand another year of COVID disruption and our comparative advantage - our finances - will only increase.

Agree 100 per cent but we did lose six league games and blew the CL Final because of it.Last season we won the league, the league cup, got to the final of the CL and the semi final of the FA Cup. We also won 21 games in a row - an all time English record. On top of this we had the best defensive record in the league.
We don’t seem to be doing too bad with this ‘major’ weakness.
One wants to play for City the other doesn’t, devils advocate£160m on a 28yr old v £160m on a 20yr old. Both of equal potential
