Cristiano Ronaldo

[IOWBlue]

We don’t help ourselves here, we need a striker badly. Pep will be pissed, we are going into the season so light in area compared to the rest of the top 4.

We do seem to fail time after time with the marquee signings even seemingly when it’s on a plate for us. Disappointing.

why will Pep start drinking?

 

[lazerblue]

Have City actually confirmed they aren't signing him? Where is this confirmation? All I can see is a tweet from a guy who said we'd already signed him yesterday?

sky reporter outside the ground read out a statement from the club

So who's taking pens at United now. Big ears or Ronaldo.

Bruno's record is much better, so hopefully Ronaldo :)

 

[ScottSinclair]

Can see us loaning Griezmann deadline day

 

[Maldeika]

Let's form it like this...

There will be a lot less drama... I actually wondered about the City rumours all the time as I cannot see Pep with CR7.

 

[MarsLlama]

well maybe Pep really did not fancy him?

up to Torres, Sterling, Mahrez, Jesus to hit the target now on a much better rate than they usually do.

Trouble is that our best goalscorers (Foden, Jesus, Torres, Sterling) will probably be on the bench like most of last season while a front three of Grealish, Mahrez and Bernardo is inexplicably trotted out every time.

Pep: “There are 3/4 days left, let’s see what happens” soo are we in for someone else then?

doubt it...just managing expectations.....

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Shit anyway, never wanted him. Rag ****.

Pervert.

Shit anyway, never wanted him. Rag ****.

That's the spirit. I would have loved it but guess it's not meant to be.

Very weird window and needed some good news after Mendy .

 

[argyle]

All on our refusal to pay Juve's 30m demands apparently. I guess United probably are. What a weird window.

I think there are people at the club that try to be too clever and think they can lower the price. Has bit them more than once.

 

[IT and Me]

Like the Pope did to Man Utd?

Who then concluded “..the blues go marching on, and on, and on and on and on..”

 

[manimanc]

The reaction of the utd fans at just the thought of him signing for was absolutely hilarious, boiling piss everywhere.
To see him play for us would've just been one huge pisstake which the red mardarses wouldn't have handled.

Ah well it wasn't meant to be, 36 is old but I still think he would have been half decent for us.

We still need a striker and for me we need to spend big for either Lewandowski, haaland or try and persuade mbappe. We can't go another season without a main striker.

 

[Semper aggressus]

I’m fucking done with this. We just don’t seem able to get these kind of star signings done. i don’t know why, but it’s very frustrating and disappointing.

Grealish is great but we still lack a potent finisher and in my opinion it’ll bite us on the arse this season.

Worst of all we keep looking like we shit the bed at the big table, or are a less attractive proposition to star players. Image is important in the commercial and sponsorship world.

 

[blue banks]

I feel sorry for Sam Lee and Tom Worville after doing such a comprehensive deep dive in The Athletic this morning.

 

[oakiecokie]

Whatever the truth we’ve allowed ourselves to look to be mugged off. If it was never on, should have distanced from the start

When did City ever say they were truly interested.We held meetings to find out where the ground lay with him.A source has already claimed that we never offered any package to him the player,nor Juve.

 

[kaz7]

Embarrassing. Get out Txiki/Omar

grow the fuck up

 

[Rammy Blue]

Pervert.

I like you.

 

[kanovic]

I’m not that sad that he didn’t come it is what it is. But I jist think we handled this whole transfer window piss poor.

 

[we are the east stand]

why will Pep start drinking?
