Hercule Poirot mode:
He’s blown us out for Newcastle

LMAO

I’ve been talking about the winter window for so long, and almost no one seemed to believe...

so Tolm is insinuating that a deal will be struck in Jan?

if he joins us in Jan, you get lifetime ITK status. If not you’ll be hoisted by your nuts. ;)

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Do I lump on him signing for the rags then?

While I stand alone, a bell is ringing far away...

I wonder if you hear, I wonder if you're listening...

I don’t pretend to be ITK. It’s just my instinct that we will try something in January. Other people here close themselves to that possibility screaming “we don’t do deals in January” as if ANY club is frequently doing business in the winter window. No, that happens (for any club) when there is a necessity or when an opportunity arises. We failed to sign a striker last summer, so the need is still there; why does the club have to wait until next summer when there is another window before? And there MIGHT be a case of an opportunity emerging with Dortmund out of the Champions League. MIGHT. We signed Laporte in January. The way people talk here, you’d think that happened two decades ago. No, that was less than five years ago. We needed him. It could happen again.

Do you know what if his clause is in January the person who wrote that article at the end of the summer window needs to be praised, every other Journalist thinks it's in the summer.

It might not even be clause related though...

I was thinking that, maybe City pay a higher price just to get him now. Like a 100mil or close to that.

 

[Coatigan]

Might be wrong, but don’t think @tolmie's hairdoo posts a cryptic message when it’s bad news.

Depends on what you think is cryptic.

Took me till this afternoon to work out what he meant by No-no Mendes.

Maybe. Overpay now and make them an offer they can’t refuse.

Negates the competition for his signature in summer.
Dortmund can strengthen with the cash.
Strengthens the team for the PL/CL
Pisses every other team off.

Get it done City.

Ok, who's leaving?

I think we will drop Mendy out of our squad lists.

Is there a Santa Clause then?

the problem is Haaland knows he could bag all this to himself in 6 months. Hard to refuse that

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

It’s a done deal to us , has been for months , we was hopeful of getting it wrapped up for this January but to keep all parties happy it’s now looking inevitable that we will have to wait till summer , the media will make a big scene of the wages he will get paid , but he’s worth every penny, plus we’ve offloaded players in the last 18 months to fund him and his wages.

What reports today?

 

[Rammy Blue]

Pretty sure he was never put in the squad lists, think we’ve always been one player light this season.

Probably right as he was arrested late in August.

We have the squad space anyway by about 3 spaces in the NON-HG slots
