Florian Wirtz

So, after the recent developments what do we know?
Don’t believe the ITKs
City are in negotiations for the transfer of Wirtz this must the case as you don’t hire a Biz Jet to fly his agents over for a stadium tour*
Don’t believe the ITKs

*My speculation is the talks must be at an advanced stage but they could be treating all bidders with equal respect for Florian to make his mind up
There's no such thing as itk's within our club these days
 
I TOLD you!

THIS is the moment, THIS is MY moment… I was so unbelievably right!! I can’t even breathe, I’m shaking, nearly crashed the car…my brain’s in another galaxy right now!! IT’S HAPPENING. I’m screaming, I’m laughing, I’m floating… this is the best feeling in the fucking world!!
I want to have what you're smoking :)
 
His parents flew to Manchester, got the tram from Manchester Airport, changed at Piccadilly Gardens, got off at the Etihad, had a walk around the North stand construction site, popped into Mary D's for a pint, and then went to Tony's Chippy for Fish and Chips.

We now know is was Blackpool flew into!

I thought kdb has never had an agent?
 
Probably said we like what we see, but will only consider City if we are in the Champions League. Come back when you've qualified.
It would seem logical that the lad would have a view on playing in the Champions League.
I would think that qualification is crucial to our chances of landing the players at the top of our list.
 
Pretty much all of our success under Pep has been in something similar to that shape, just with one of the defenders moving up to form the ‘2’ with Rodri/Fernandinho. No reason it couldn’t work with two proper midfielders instead. Especially if you have lateral centre backs who are comfortable defending in the wide areas (like Ake and Akanji in the treble season).
I like it - though Marmoush and Doku as the wide players might be overkill. With Wirtz (and Foden hopefully getting back to form), I’d prefer more ‘controlling’ wide players to help us move up the pitch coherently, without leaving us exposed to the dreaded ‘transition’ …
When we did it in 2023 there was 4 defenders on the pitch, that’s how it worked.
 
Didn't Pep meet Rico's parents just before he signed his first senior contract? There's no way Pep is kept at a distance as a negotiating tactic.

I didn't mean it's a tactic. I meant he won't be involved at every stage of every transfer discussion because that's not his job.
