None of the big details then ;)
Sort of stuff negotiations fall apart on. Don’t think potential suitors are dead here yet.
Difficult to know what to believe, but let's say everything he says is true. The 'key points of disagreement' seem to be pretty much everything. Salary, length of deal and release clauses are the central tenets of any contract. Basically nothing important has been agreed at this point. This makes it hard to believe the second point - that he really wants to extend. Bayern might well expect 'concessions' but if a better deal lies elsewhere then why would the player offer any sort of compromise?

Good points. He is definitely considering g going.Difficult to know what to believe, but let's say everything he says is true. The 'key points of disagreement' seem to be pretty much everything.

When I see Vincent and a guys ear in the one sentence, I'm thinking more Van Gogh than Kompany.Come on Vincent have a word in this guys ear you know it’s for the best.

Nope ,pure clutching at strawsDoes anyone seriously think that he'll come to us? We're shit.
He may well be tempted by the narrative of leading or next generation. 6-7 years in KDB’s boots.Does anyone seriously think that he'll come to us? We're shit.

Only the last couple of months. We’ve been the best team in the world for the seven or eight years before this. And we still have Pep.

The last line wasn't meant to be taken entirely seriously. Serves me right for not putting one of those winky thingys at the end of my post.Only the last couple of months. We’ve been the best team in the world for the seven or eight years before this. And we still have Pep.

I think it’s possible he’s already agreed to join us and we’re happy to pay an exorbitant sum that even Bayern cannot turn down. My rational is firstly he should have signed by now if he was staying, secondly he gets coached by Pep for 2 years and this could be any players last chance of this and finally he gets to be in the premier league (he spent much of his youth in England)
Are we going to be allowed to stay shit?Does anyone seriously think that he'll come to us? We're shit.
Do you think the Sheik/Khaldoon are just going to sit on there hands because of the first blip in their tenure?
We used to make statement signings, long overdue we go back to that.
Sign Musiala, Zubimendi, David, Fulham Tony and a CB/RB I would not bet against us getting top 4 THIS season.
I hate to say it, but I agree. Top players don't join teams not making the CL. Hell, players like Musiala would only ever play for the best teams in the world and as it stand, we are very far away from that level. For me, that ship has sailed. We had a chance before, maybe a very good one as well, but right now, we can forget about him or Wirtz.Does anyone seriously think that he'll come to us? We're shit.

Tevez, Silva, Yaya....

Hope you’re right. He’d be my number one signing.
There's no chance all 5 of those happen in January I'm afraid. But I agree they are all the positions we should be targeting, perhaps even another CM on top of those.Are we going to be allowed to stay shit?

I can maybe see a couple in Jan but we all might be very disappointed come February.

No chance we do that much business in January. I expect no more than 2 - and that won't be easy.Are we going to be allowed to stay shit?

It's not just down to us - there's also the selling club who have to get their ducks lined up

Difference then we were very much a team on the up. From the outside looking in we look very much a team on a slippery slope going down now.Tevez, Silva, Yaya....
Then we were a team that spent copious amounts on transfers, discarding those that didn’t work out. Now due to regulations we are pegged back from doing this.
They're all too old nowTevez, Silva, Yaya...
