Ederson | Deal agreed with Fenerbahce

[Blue Maverick]

Sounds like meddling.

Just like we did with Fred, Sanchez etc

 

[Gumzy97]

You have a situation here where if we are not careful you will have two players who want to leave that will be staying.

I’d rather Ederson go, he wants to leave , his heads already somewhere else. Just let him go. If he stays he won’t be anywhere near his best.

 

[Mighty men]

I cant wait for him to go, sick of this shit now.

 

[Cobwebcat]

We are now in the Viana regime. Buy as cheaply as possible, sell as expensive as possible and don't blink first!

At least, I guess that’s what is going on.

 

[alexmcity]

City demanding £20m is a joke for a player who is in final year of his contract and already telling people he's off.

I doubt City are joking. They know what they are doing. Are you doubting Viana?

If Ederson is desperate to go, then he will go (Galatasaray are not Barcelona, though...). If he isn't, Galata must pay what it takes to have a top keeper.

Not his fault though

 

[LongsightM13]

I'd also argue it's poor from City to price out a player who has given such long and successful service?

Especially so, when we did the same to stop him earning Saudi money last summer.

Galatasaray and Saudi both have plenty of money tbf and can more than afford a reasonable fee.
Instead they’re trying to take the piss, possibly chancing their arm because they’ve not dealt with Viana before.
So we’re correct in putting down a marker and warning for how any future pisstake lowball approaches will be dealt with, especially with a new Director of Football in post

Especially when literally one of the top goalkeepers in the world is ready to come in?

Foolish to keep him if he is really set on leaving even if we go into the season with Trafford and Ortega and no genuine interest in doing a deal with PSG.

Good source for Gala

**** can’t spell personal…I’m out.

;)

 

[mike1923]

According to Pep, Rico wants to stay?

He's gonna have to manage his wage demands if true.

According to Rico, he wants to stay too

 

[I'm Blue]

Come on Galatasaray shit or get off the pot.
We’ve got shit to do.

 

[oddfellows]

I assumed that we would respect his wishes with a simple transfer that allowed him to leave for a reasonable fee?

Are you two conjoined twins by any chance :-)

 

[better dead than red]

very few players get a way of playing a position named after them.

But we know what the Makalea position is.

I think Ederson has achieved that, if someone wanted a keeper very accustomed with their feet, you would say an Ederson style of keeper.

He is the best one playing that way and has brought that style of GK’ing to be paramount with success!!

Privilege to watch!!

Never heard of it. I do know the Makélélé but perhaps that is different?

It's quite strange that we are holding up his move for a few quid. In the past, we have let players go for a lower fee as a sort of reward for what they have done for the club - dzeko being a good example.
Ederson surely has enough credit in the bank at city that we won't stop him getting the move he wants for a couple of million

Different DOF now though?

Which is why the club aren't doing that, and are letting him go for a very reasonable and modest fee.

I said when the first rumours started (and €3m was mooted, that £15m was a reasonable figure, below which it just isn't worth it to the club. I haven't changed my mind on that.

I also don't believe the club are looking for 25m. That's just the turks putting that out there so they can then claim they managed to talk city down when they eventually pay, probably what we asked for from day one.

Good to see you at Wolves mate.

Didn't get back until midnight, got the train to Crewe and the fucking connection to Manchester was delayed by an hour :(

Good to see you too bud. I know it’s not what you want to hear but I was sat back on my sofa by 9.15!

At least Cam got the opportunity to see a thumping victory!

I don’t think we are holding the move up, it’ll be imo because we are trying to tie up the Donnarumma deal at the same time.

20 million is more than a fair price for a decent keeper. If galatasary want him that much then they will have to pay what city want.
And it’s edersons problem if he’s telling people he’s off. It will be down to city to tell accept what they think is the correct price.
