One person‘s bullshitter is another person‘s tier 1 source.I get this is a transfer forum to discuss but why some keep posting links to known bullshitters is surely a waste of everyone’s time. Saw someone earlier posting tweets from that numpty Grimes person still.
Aggregators, in the main, are so bad.I get this is a transfer forum to discuss but why some keep posting links to known bullshitters is surely a waste of everyone’s time. Saw someone earlier posting tweets from that numpty Grimes person still.
So says you... Ok, why not just answer this directly: Do you honestly think £30m is a fair price, 12months left or not?Take my word for it?..well yeah you will because its a fact.
I've already pre-empted that. £30m(and his wages most likely) in this market could be matched by multiple clubs elsewhere in my view. Again, there is plenty of time left in this transfer window, not all clubs do their business early. The bigger hurdle could be how Jesus views the other moves in my view but I doubt Arsenal are the only suitable club. I don't see why you're insisting it's Arsenal or bust.We can do worse actually, Arsenal can move on and sign someone else.
See you say that but...I am not interested when or if we sell him,
You certainly seem concerned that we'll end up stuck with him if Arsenal don't get him for £30m. I'd also say, everything I've seen from Jesus, tells me even if that did happen, he wouldn't kick up any fuss. I don't see why you're insisting he would. He's got a better chance of making the WC squad but there's no saying he couldn't make it if he stays at City and performs well when he is called upon.If that happens we are left with a pissed off player on our books for 12mths who then goes for nothing. Its all well and good thinking Arsenal will crack, its all a game of poker.
"Pissing about all summer" is your own take on it(it's a normal part of transfer business) and weirdly emotive for someone who's not interested if or when we sell him.City rarely play hard ball on outgoing transfers and its preferrable to get a deal done and dusted nice and early and not be pissing about all summer.
I'm not sure you know what insinuating means. I was quite clear why I referenced that, that's why it was your strawman argument and what followed that was irrelevant because it wasn't the point I was making. We will obviously still do business with them(never said otherwise) but we should do them no favours. Do it on our terms, that is the point. If they go elsewhere, so be it, nobody should be flapping about that. We can try our luck elsewhere for a better fee. If we can't find better, I say we have a very good chance of atleast getting £30m for him elsewhere. We have near on a full transfer window to at least match that(we waste a bit of time... but it's kind of their jobs, we don't have to lift a finger). Accepting £30m now only suits Arsenal between the two clubs because it's a shite deal. You might not agree, that despite being willing to do business with them, we really don't want to do them any favours here by pulling the trigger early on a shite deal. That doesn't however make it an irrelevant argument because you could be wrong(and I think you are).You are insuating this nonsense about the "hateful 8", like it means anything. Not really sure why you even bothered mentioning it tbh. Completely irrelevant.
We were never going to get much more than that, a player bought for a low fee, not a top wage earner and going into his last year, added to that it seems that both player and club are happy to say adios.Seen some reports of 30mill lets hope thats not the case.
I’m not sure anyone wants to spend the money on Sterling this year to buy him from us. Probably for those reasons.Would rather he stayed and Sterling went if I'm honest. A much better finisher and presser.
Tier tier.One person‘s bullshitter is another person‘s tier 1 source.
Who judges the people judging what tier these people go in?
I think Grimes is a tier 3 source, but I’m tier 12 for knowing which tier to put random twitter accounts in.
It’s clear that we’re briefing that we can accept add-ons as long as the whole fee amounts to 50mYou guys won't sell Jesus for £30M, there's no way that's happening.
Im sure it will be £40M minimum, with add ons that will take it closer to or even meet your £50M asking price.
The thing is that I think that we want to take this stance, but we also want to run a succesful business.After that letter on Arsenal headed paper…. I wouldn’t do business with the arrogant, self entitled scum bags…. I’m hoping Milan or AM come in for him.
And that racist scumbag Alan Davies can fuck off whilst I’m on one….
The very first line of my post was in reference to your post saying I am anxious about signing a LB and DM. So yes, "says you". I have no idea where you got this from and its very odd thing to say.So says you... Ok, why not just answer this directly: Do you honestly think £30m is a fair price, 12months left or not?
I also don't think City should accept 30m, I have never said that at all.
I fully get why fans feel like this - it’s part of being a fan - but it just doesn’t work in the real world. If we refused to do deals with all the clubs that have an issue with us then we’d pretty much never buy or sell any players.After that letter on Arsenal headed paper…. I wouldn’t do business with the arrogant, self entitled scum bags…. I’m hoping Milan or AM come in for him.
And that racist scumbag Alan Davies can fuck off whilst I’m on one….
He didn’t get a call up to the Brazil team in March due to his lack of play time so that probably sealed it for him.it is baffling gabby desperate to go to arsenal though isnt it? Gabby played in all of our biggest games last season, he`s gonna miss out on champions league football for at least next season as well? Is it a huge pay rise from arsenal maybe? i`m not buying the whole he is worried about his place in the brazil world cup squad as he would play more than enough at city to get in that anyway? Gabby was also the one earlier in the season that wanted to play wide?
