Why the fuck didn't we say we weren't interested in signing him from the word go then. We look fucking idiots through this charade

Well, this thread was a right laugh today regardless.
Might as well get Delap up to speed ASAP as we dont seem to go all out for the big guns when the opportunity arises.
Also makes the derbies even more tasty... :)

I actually can’t believe the past 24 hours. If we were genuinely interested and didn’t want to pay £25m for him, questions are going to be asked if we fail to meet our targets this year due to a lack of goals.

So we briefed the City journos we were going for him.
And now we have just briefed them we aren't?
Sounds like Ronaldo has just told us no. United probably put a bigger package together for him

a club of the stature City is of these days must run like Usain Bolt just to stay in place, and run even harder to keep progressing. it's not like "hey we are the English champions already might as well sit back now we're going to be just fine for years to come". ask rags how this approach has served them over the last decade.Grow the fuck up. It's fine if we don't win the title this season and just like how we eventually got Vinny's replacement sorted with Dias we will get Aguero's replacement sorted as well. You just might have to be a bit patient as foreign a concept that may be for some.

This is my issue, the club has likely to have known that 12 months ago that if we didn't do something we would be really light upfront and we haven't addressed it, we are weaker going into the season as a result and pretty much all the other sides are stronger be it Liverpool with the return of their injured players, Chelsea and the rags filling gaps and the irony of it is we still broke the British transfer record! bring a player in in part of the team we are stacked, this isn't a great window to be sure.6 out of 10 window it is then, no wonder pep looks fucked off. He keeps saying he's happy with what he's got but deep down that's bs. He was probably banking on a new number nine coming in this summer, but it looks like we've made a right pigs ear out of negotiations and bids. Five months ago Sergio decided to announce he was leaving, and coming towards the end of the window we look further away than ever for addressing the striker problem
It raises the questions as to why we weren’t interested…
Bloke is a born goal scorer and that’s all we needed. We didn’t need an icon, a flair player, a runner, a playmaker…just a goal scorer and one of the best in the world at doing exactly that was there for the taking but we don’t bother.
Our recruitment gets it right most of the time but it does confuse me other times too!

Too many on city’s board are drunk on their own success imo. Once again we haven’t strengthened when winning the league and once again we didn’t replace a legend leaving the club like when we decided to use fern as cb.
If I was pep I would be absolutely furious.

Sadly I agree. Messi, Kane & now Ronaldo. Saying that at the minute we can’t get supporter services rightWhy the fuck didn't we say we weren't interested in signing him from the word go then. We look fucking idiots through this charade

City stated years ago they won't get involved in auctions (Sanchez etc), and players need to be committed to coming to the club.
Ronaldo's agent did his job and got more parties involved to raise the money for him and Ronaldo.
I'm sure we were interested until we discovered they got the Rags involved.
If you have principles, you have to stick to them or your word counts for nothing ..
Hoping there is a surprise Lewandowski or other top notch solution forth next 2 years ..
