Florian Wirtz

Don’t be ridiculous, there okay signings but no where near enough. This Reijnders guy has gone up levels since we’ve been linked with him. Nobody a month ago was asking for him. We suffer chronically with lack of creation and that’s before KDB leaving. So how does that get resolved…
We could start by letting the window open before flapping
 
FFS, don't go on X.

Musk has become a Liverpool fan promoting the signing of Wirtz.
 
I’m absolutely shattered. I really believed, right up until the final moment, that it was happening…that he was going to wear our shirt, play in our stadium, become one of us. I’ve never wanted a player this badly. That’s why I’ve been in this thread for months, day in and day out, pushing, hoping, convincing myself and others that we were going to pull it off.

I don’t even know what to say right now. I’m genuinely sorry if I gave anyone false hope or built up your expectations. I wasn’t trying to mislead… I just had complete faith in our board to get this over the line. And to see it all collapse like this… it’s heartbreaking.

Let’s stick together now. We’re still fans of the same club. We still want what’s best for it. And even though this one slipped away, we have to look forward, regroup, and find the next best alternative. But yeah…this one hurts. Deeply.

You must be apocalyptic with the news Liverpool are signing him!
 
Reading shit like this is downright scary and there’s no way you watch the same club play
Both claims are true. We both need creativity and legs. In fact, one of the factors that drives creativity is willing runners.


Its impossible to be creative when everyone is stood still. A problem we often had this season. But it is a lot easier when you have lots of willing runners mixed in with lots of technically proficient creative types.

Presumably more players who embody both aspects are even better.
 
Posters actually imagining scenarios where Pep and Viana have a fall out. Some even throwing the towel in already for next season. lol.

All because one player may sign for liverpool...
With all the surrendering going on I thought I’d clicked on the French thread by mistake.
 
He might turn out to be the exact signing Liverpool need to cope with the decline of Salah over the next 2-3 years.

Or he'll carry on his current run of 9 G/A in his last 20 games and be nowhere near worth the £130m they're about to pay.
 
If he goes to Liverpool, well done to them. They get a creator to step in as Salah ages out. Presumably he’ll replace Diaz. Big coup for them and makes our task next season more difficult.

It’s up to City to improve City, can’t control anything else.

We can control how much we bid for players instead of always backing down when a direct rival comes in. It’s unambitious and small time.

Even bigger fuck up than letting arsenal get Rice if we didn’t try hard enough to persuade Wirtz instead of him going to those scouse cunts.

I really wish we had a character like Garry Cook in charge of transfers again.

We won’t win the title next season if Wirtz goes there, we’re miles off now and there’s no-one else available that would make enough difference.
 
In all seriousness this is a situation I do think we will look back on and go, that’s where we lost our dominance. Letting wirtz go to Liverpool… I mean come on city.
We haven’t ‘let’ him go to Liverpool. He has chosen to go to Liverpool and rejected us.
