Cristiano Ronaldo

[argyle]

Three weeks ago we spent £100M on another midfielder?

On a midfielder we didn't really need.

We needed a striker and a left back. Have done for two seasons.

We still have neither.

Crazy by the club it really is.

The whole Twitter reports nonsense is now confirmed as bullshit click bait. Let’s remember that for future transfers. Literally everything reported was a lie.

Yep. Exactly this. Said to my mate can't believe I fell for it this time. I don't even watch the news because the media is pure bullshit, propaganda and click bait. Not sure why anyone would think football journalism is any different.

Wish we had negotiating people like that Maria last from Chelsea lol they don’t seem to play around or stage their feet. They identify a target and chances are they get it.

Do you not know how many players they have , who they cannot get a fee for.
Only a mug would believe their recruitment is all that.

 

[IOWBlue]

Arguably Robinho

and look what a great career he had. i'll stick with getting lesser players like Kun, David, Vinny, Yaya, Zabba, Dzeko, KDB, Kyle, Dias, Fern.

 

[PhdWave]

I'd still rather have Pep and no striker than Solskjær and Ronaldo

This is not even a contest..

 

[ninjamonkey]

Clearly, Pep did not want CR7 if you watch the press conf. Ronaldo is dictator, Pep can't allow that type of attitude.

Absolutely love the way club dealt with transfers. Not going to overpay for 28yr old and paid a fair price for Jack.

Only player worth paying over £100m is hallad but he is going to RM or PSG.

A fair price for Grealish? We paid a release clause that villa set high enough to think nobody would ever pay. We significantly overpaid.

Must've taken him ages to write this without any typos given all the spunk on his keyboard.

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

Ronaldo would have been a nice addition for this season, but I'm grateful that the people in charge aren't just bringing people in because they can.

 

[andyhinch]

Well I'm grateful for the 1000 pages of fun that preceded this. What a whacky experience this has all been!

Probably won’t see half the posters again after the window shuts.

 

[Damocles]

And some posters will still defend Txiki and bang on about how £30m is a great deal in the circumstances

Because it's not Txiki's job to negotiate financials. which you'd know if you weren't clueless about how football clubs operate

 

[Paul1970]

We will win the league you soft arse.

Sorry mate but we won’t

 

[kaz7]

That had nothing to do with the press conference, as all were told before the start, that under no circumstances should any questions regarding Mendy be asked.

He would still not be in a great mood ,jeez

 

[Manchester1894]

Not sure we can ever deal with hateful 8 teams or the G14.

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

Am I right with this.

‘Legacy’ fans. “Thank fuck that poncing pony isn’t playing in Blue”

Young whipper snappers. “Oh my god cheeky, fuck off out of our Club”

 

[chaddblue]

So the club should do bad deals just so City fans don't get laughed at by their rag mates? Maybe don't dish it out to your rag mates until deals are done in future?

Thankfully I didn't... so when my rag mates come at me with all the CR7 bollocks I can say I'm delighted the greasy OAP is nowhere near our club... even though I'd have had him in a heartbeat

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Need to throw £200m at a Haarland deal

If you think our board have the bollocks and the intellect to get that deal done, you need your head examining.

 

[kanovic]

Do you not know how many players they have , who they cannot get a fee for.

I know I don’t ever read reports of them chasing a player for weeks only to not get them. Have you?

 

[madloaf]

The whole Twitter reports nonsense is now confirmed as bullshit click bait. Let’s remember that for future transfers. Literally everything reported was a lie.

To the surprise of no one with half a brain. The fanboys on here need to hang their heads in shame after last nights performance.

 

[Phil Mitchell Foden]

How have we fucked this up?

Kane all summer, then Ronaldo begging to sign for us, while we're crying out for a goalscorer.

Christ. Fucking shitshow.

 

[Carlos- the- jackal]

It's not about being a happy clapper. It's about having even the slightest understanding of how football works, what the club's short, medium and long term targets are, and how we go about meeting them.

We should have killed the story stone dead as soon as it surfaced insead of letting it play out in the press if we were never interested.
