Cristiano Ronaldo

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

We can’t attract big name players , just projects , who was the last big name we signed ???

anelka ??

Arguably Robinho

 

[Blue Mist]

There are a lot of posters in this thread that i have never seen before, hmmmm and all with negative comments.

Strange

 

[Keeper!]

I said the other day he would never come here whilst the pisscan was alive , thought that would be obvious

hence why things have changed so quickly, that twat will be having a heart attack tonight

 

[Superace]

Ha ha where are all those idiots that said the odds don’t matter !!!

as if a drift from 1-8 out to evens isn’t alarming , absolute clueless wankers

The same happened with Grealish, odds on transfers are never definitive.

 

[Kippax1973]

You’ve confused me now, that’s for sure!

This post seems like you don’t think our C-Level staff are embarrassing, your previous post said you did lol

Looking at our commercial revenues, I’d say we’re doing more than alright worldwide marketability.

When you say this type of player, there’s only 2 of them………

Agreed but why do we fail with the real class 1 players... Do you honestly think we stand a chance with haaland,, for instance

The club was reluctant from the beginning, they just thought it was too big of an opportunity to miss without a try. As soon as they saw a bidding war with the crazy United board, they pulled out.

This seems the most likely truth.

City happy to get Kane or wait a year (which had been City's stance when briefing the press all summer)
Mendes comes to City with a deal.
City consider it.
United shit themselves and offer more.
City revert back to original position.

I am happy we have turned this down and stated from the start

But I also feel the frustration of blues who did want him and were all lead to believe it was happening

Something not sitting right with this

Is Pep starting he would go in two years down to the board thinking fuck it then we will go for this fucker

As Pep stated he was misunderstood and if you sign this prick I am off or you can trust me and I will stay longer

Could be but then it could be other reasons . We just dont know

 

[waspish]

Because city say absolutely fcuk all we go of agents and social media! Well that’s a lesson learned for the next window! Nowts done till it’s on mancity.com even though we know that with social media has it is we get drawn into it…

 

[Keeper!]

Funny the club didn’t pull the plug last night or yesterday , he’s chosen the rags over us obviously , we had a free run and didn’t want to pay the money x

becoming a habit unless there is a clause

Maybe the guy we signed 3 weeks ago for 100m?

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

Well I think Bernardo can forget a move any time soon
I reckon the price for him has doubled as well

Not with Txiki at the helm. £30m deal is there for the taking

 

[Roy Munson]

If we can't afford €30m for Ronaldo then what the fuck was all this nonsense about Kane all summer?

We weren't close to meeting the valuation for Kane and it would have only been possible if we sold Bernardo.

Looks like Bernardo isn't going anywhere, so the combo of €30 million plus the huge wages that Ronaldo would command probably made it a non-starter.

All speculation until the accounts come out, I suppose.

 

[BlueBanger]

This idea of us "not being bullied" in the market is becoming a self-fullfilling prophecy at this point. You simply cannot expect to make big moves in the market without getting fleeced once in a while. Its happens to all big clubs.

I think our board look at us and think we deserve the best and players should want to come. The cold reality is that players/agents just want the best money. I think we are somewhat deluded at a boardroom level. Why pay mega bucks to bring in pep only to bottle every chance to sign someone big. Its an insult to pep nevermind the fans.

 

[better dead than red]

Love a good chicken hat. Thanks mate

Lol of course, pal.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Barca want Griezmann gone, I’ll take any striker right now.

He’s fucking wank and a dickhead, I’d rather sign Daniel Sturridge on a free.

 

[I'm Blue]

Once the scum came in it was always gonna be them.
Just a shame we didn’t stick a £50m bid in and £500k in wages just to drive their price up before we pulled out.
It was fun, just like the Messi saga, but when it comes down to it I’m not really arsed.
I was more bothered that we’d spend £150m on Kane.

 

[Phil1]

I can get down with the idea that we were happy to sign him because we were led to believe it was a free hit with no other clubs involved. Yet as soon as we were made aware he'd been offered to the rag cunts, like so often before we refused to get involved in a bidding war.
It's a tactic that has been used for years now and although meant we've lost out on some marquee type players hasn't hurt the club in the long run.
It's understandable that sections of the fanbase don't like us doing our business the way we do but Im cool with it.

 

[Father Paul]

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.

Sterling has shown in the past he can do it. Mahrez did it to a certain extent last season. Torres has shown he can do it in individual games but may not be consistent and Jesus while he has never really had a full and proper chance seems unlikely to be able to do it in terms of goals but has other attributes. All in all not a bad situation to be in although I suppose after a week like this it doesn't feel like that.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Boundary park what a day that was

How good were our fans in those days? We had fuck all football wise, but fucking well we knew how to have a good time

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

I’m really scared what my united mates will say to me next time I see them. I’m literally crying thinking about it.
