It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

Fuck me, that's mad.

Makes sense now that City were getting linked with him at around the time we were playing Dortmund at pretty much nothing since. Probably found out his demands and told fatty to fuck off.

Money, Garry Cook, and Mancini.

Judging by our recent player succession process (Kompany, Aguero, Hart etc), I don't have a lot of confidence around the club's hierarchy having Pep's successor on their radar yet.

Don't underestimate the power of having a coach of Pep's stature on board. I know that a number of people around the club think that he's irreplaceable.

Whoever takes over from Pep will have problems, especially if the club doesn't back them in the transfer market.

Our squad is a strong as it’s ever been in every position apart from a striker. Don’t being so dramatic when there’s no need for it. We’re a great position, with or without Pep.

I hope so... Time will tell, but I think you'll find it's going to be all about money

Can't believe any city fan actually thinks that way.

3. Wants to play with KDB and the other world class players in the squad.
4. Wants to be competing for the premier League and other trophies regularly.
5. Players we are signing in the next few years were 9, 10, 11, etc. When they witnessed the most iconic goal the league has ever seen scored by this club.

Of course there will be players who want to come here. Yeah, they'll be played handsomely, as they would elsewhere.

This place tonight is either full of opposition fans taking the piss or a load of fanny fucking blues have lost their minds.

5 league titles and 10 years consecutive in champions league says different you fuckin daft ****

That sounds remarkably like the sort of arrogant remark that would be made by rag supporters towards the end of Ferguson's reign of power.

Don't get complacent or you could end up eating your words.

Except Pep isn't like GPC. City are not run by the manager. They have pretty much noult to show for the 10 years since he left.

We have been successful through 3 different managers.

We'll be in a better position if we sign a striker for this season.
At some point, the club will have to start paying what it takes to stay among the big boys. It's inevitable. It's why clubs like Arsenal and Spurs have been on the decline in Europe over the past few seasons.

Oi oi

I understood that Fernandinho paid his own release clause out of his own pocket?

I believe he paid €4M of the transfer fee which Shakhtar were demanding in order to cover Fernandinho’s loyalty bonus.

 

[Del_Bosque]

somethings 100% changed as Pol tweeted earlier than we’d probably go with the same attackers

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Oi oi

Those same people were confident the strategy for Kane was going to work.

The reason why Arsenal and Spurs are on the decline is because they don’t sign any decent players, totally different to City. For as long as Khaldoon is at City, we will always have a sensible value for a player depending on their level of quality. We are fucking light years ahead of Spurs and Arsenal, if you can’t see that then you need to question your own football knowledge.

 

[Lavinda Past]

I can’t remember if it was pounds or Euros, but 850k a week plus a big agent fee for the fat greasy ****.

Can't remember = making it up as you go along. ;-)

Haaland won't come to City because Real and/or the rags will pay what he wants, and we won’t want to deal with a pair of two bob conmen like Raiola and Alfie Haaland.

Dance with the devil and there's a price to pay.

The club have backed every manager, all have made big signings in their time post the takeover so why would that stop. Our top players are well paid, but aren't signed on crazy wages, like the trafford tramps did with Sanchez. I don't remember Aguero, Toure or Silva signing for stupid money, if thats all they wanted they wouldn't have lasted so long at the club.

Haven't we recently spent 100M on a player and been looking to spend 100M+ on another?

 

[I'm Blue]

Oh well at least we‘ve got some nice statues of Vinny and David to look at on Saturday

Hopefully that gets put back a few weeks so they can grind a few inches off David Silva’s chin.

Pay what he wants and fuck yourself for years. The moment we start paying mega wages is the day we have lost control of ourselves. I can’t see how paying north of £600k per week is sustainable. Barca are giving a lot of clubs a good example of why you shouldn’t smash you’re wage structure to bits.

Mate, he’s off his tits. No offence Lavinda, but you need to acquire some self awareness.

We aren’t getting complacent. Starting to think you’re on the wind up.
