If hes leaving end of next season anyway, Might as well go now. The football City have played this season has been terrible to watch. anyway best leave this thread for the wirtz discussion.

Jesus Christ ,what a take ,get back in your box .

I'm not getting excited until Cum Burger gives us another update telling us he's on his way...

I wouldn't be surprised if Bayern tell the German players they want to sign, that if they don't sign for them then forget about your German international career. We'll make sure you are not selected.

Sorry mate but I don’t think Bayern carry that much weight in Germany.

Apart from a bit of guess work by some sketchy "journalists", I think the silence from our end is deafening. The majority of the conversation has been about Munich & Liverpool, it all feels very similar to when we signed Haaland.

Like Gaughan?

I believe that's what they did with Sanè

I think that was one of the tactics they used with Sane.

He’s being fed info by Viana definitely. No other journalist has mentioned Mcatee as part of the deal

My understanding is Gibbs White is an 8. He seems to think that MGW is a Wirtz fallback option. Would we sign two 8s?

McAtee has even mentioned several times including the January transfer.

Gut feeling it we'll try tbh. Most reports had MGW close, Wirtz awaiting his decision and Riejnders independent of those and moving along.

We might , we may have a preference for an 8 and Wirtz, but failing that may think of the alternative players available we are better with Reijnders as an 8 and MGB who is an 8/10.
I could see the logic of that.
I do think MGW is now the fallback option, unless we really want all 3 which would surprise me.

A player of that quality would never be excluded for such a flimsy reason. Maybe a second rater but not Wirtz.

I do mate. You only have to look at their board of directors, they always have ex Bayern/German internationals who exercise influence on the German game. They are a bunch of bullies.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

They do actually, and unlike the Madrid - Barca dynamic where the "rebel" Spanish players go to Barca, Bayern doesn't really have a radical rival, even Dortmund were crushed eventually and they still weren't as defiant as Barca were in La Liga because that type of history just isn't there. There's a reason Bayern are nicknamed FC Hollywood, they are the fat cats, get with the program or you're fucked.

Spot on. Would be like England leaving Kane out cos he plays in Germany, no manager or association would leave their best player out because one club says so or because he doesnt play in the country(when alot of the squad dont play in Germany)
