If United get Kalvin Phillips, that’s a pretty good window for them. Hopefully they won’t

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

You know we're signing fuck all when the hottest current topic with one and a half days to go is debating whether or not big Dave Watson is itk or just a miserable bastard.

 

[NorthamptonBlue]

I think he looks perfectly at home. Think we'll see more of Grealish when Foden returns and he plays more central

I was a bit meh about signing him but I’ve been impressed so far. I think he’ll be good for us.

 

[Coatigan]

I dont think I can remember a single deadline day transfer happen without a widespread rumour at the verly least the day before.

I'm taking the fact that there has been no mention of anything by now, as a.given there will be no signings tomorrow. Outgoings of some of the academy players maybe, but that is probably it.

We need a poll

He's Leeds born and bred. About as likely to sign for them as Foden or Alexander-Arnold.

 

[manimanc]

dont see point of this if true

That has to be most ridiculous tweet ever, it makes zero sense.

Robinho is the last one I can remember like that

Barca can’t sign anyone cos of wage limits. So unless they thought we would pay his salary the never gonna happen

Like Alan Smith?

Big Dave on the phone to txiki
10 mins before bringing the bad news to bluemoon.

 

[akrh215]

the market closes tomorrow evening, right? because then we'll find out tomorrow, but I don't think anyone is coming cos I don't see any news.

Unless its designed by the rag media to destabilise and unsettle city.... nah they'd never do that

 

[Centurions]

The whole notion they have that an article or a news organization is ALWAYS trying to paint someone in a bad light is embarrassing to me as a journalist who has worked in organizations accused of that. It doesn’t work like that inside newsrooms and journalists don’t go around just following orders and executing an agenda. But anyone can believe what they want, it’s exhausting to stop them

Strange because the (known) journalists who post on here say that that is EXACTLY how it works.

and it'll destabilise and unsettle City by...?

Funny you should say that about the press.
Amongst all these deals going on and the fact we've spent less than a lot, sky sports thought they'd throw this out in the middle of a transfer window, almost saying don't you dare spend anymore money man city.
'Report reveals £5.2bn loss for English clubs on overseas deals'

English clubs made big losses on overseas transfers between 2011 and 2020, report finds

Manchester City named in the report as the worlds biggest spenders on international deals; The FIFA report has been published to mark a decade since the introduction of its transfer matching system; Twelve English clubs among the 30 biggest-spending clubs in the world

Watch sky sports news for an hour and see how they report on clubs differently.
