Rayan Cherki

[wattle]

They did an article confirming the Rudolph signing on 4th June! But the rest of what you say is true.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c771mpjg24do#:~:text=Manchester City have agreed a,if certain clauses are met.

It’s not been confirmed yet though has it?

that textor is shady as fuck

No no no. He’s a top bloke, Sky and the Beeb think he’s been legged over by UEFA and it’s all City’s fault.

Think it's a very, very, very good sign that these lads are racing and desperate to play in the club world cup. You get the understandable feeling from some of our squad that it's another appointment they have to fill, whereas these three new lads want to win some things quickly and show they can do it on the big stage.

Exactly! New hungry players desperate to be at City and desperate to win!

Done.

Article in this morning's L'Équipe, for those interested. Headline broadly translated: “The details behind the “event transfer” of Rayan Cherki.” They say the fee is 40 million € and then some (without being specific, presumably add-ons). It's the lead story, by the way. Couldn't give a fuck what the British media says, one way or the other. If France's leading sports newspaper has this as the banner story on its front page — it's done.

Edit: incidentally they are courteous enough to mention that City is — I quote — the perfect club for him. Which is no more than the truth, but nice to hear it said calmly and decisively in the middle of all the flak we get from our own media (and the tongue-up-the-arse coverage of the red clubs).

N.b.: no mention whatsoever of loan player from us.

Re-edit: just off to buy the print version, and get a proper butcher's at the whole article.

It's so nice to be getting these deals done early.

It's more than nice, mate. It demonstrates a sea change, and an implicit recognition by Pep and Txiki that they got it wrong last year.

I think we should hold off on an announcement until the first game of the CWC. Team gets announced with Gundo in the middle and everyone gets ready to start raging online. Seconds before the kick off Gundo retweets the City line up with a picture of him smoking a pipe and having a brew with a big question mark. Then the Gundo on the pitch pulls of the Gundo mask he'd been wearing and it is Jack Grealish! Everyone is like WTF he wasn't in the squad until that mask gets pulled off and it's actually Pep. He runs to embrace the Pep on the touchline who pulls off his face and it's actually Wirtz. Everyone is now over it and just really feeling like the whole thing has gone on too far when Wirtz pulls of his mask and it's really Shaun Wright Philips. The American crowd wonder who he is and how me managed to hide the step ladder to make him look like an adult sized human. In the confusion Cherki arrives by parachute and lands elegantly on the centre circle but no one cares anymore.

He then goes on to have an average debut and everyone calms down

Picture yourself in a boat on a river...

I hope it's that rather than just because they want them in early for the CWC.

Doesn't really matter the reasons, it's done now.

 

[Micky Blue]

Part of the Du Pont family, that says it all.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Done.

Erections.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Done.

Promising but will wait for the Club announcement.

 

[The Black Shed]

Limbs

 

[Gordyola]

It’s not been confirmed yet though has it?

Waiting on work permit

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Simon Stone suggesting that City might wait until the proper transfer window as according to his sources at the club, the deal isn't progressing quite as quickly as previously claimed.
Stone then claims that this would be pointless as City are taking the CWC seriously and Cherki would strengthen their chances

In other words, he's made it all up.

Has Simon not realised that the club and Pep HATE HIM and give him duff info to make him look like the mug he actually is?!
