De Bruyne?

I can see a bottle job happening here

The only bottler is you. We have no divine rights to him. Have some faith and what will be will be

Fuck me full of fun aren't you. .
I wonder.

We sign Pedro as a cheaper option, troll the rags and commit Lopes to a new deal and loan him out to gain more experience. Not as gloomy alternative scenario for us imo.

 

[Glasgow MCFC]

We have given a place to Zuculini by the look of it.

Could Zuculini be deselected if needs be?
Presumably the final submission not due till end of transfer window.

Well said its all part of our amazing journey what will be will be.

I could be wrong but i think at the moment there is only 1 place in the squad for a foreign player due to other signings and EDS promotions. Could make sense if we are waiting for Dzeko to sign for Roma.

Yeah that sounds quite plausible mate.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Fuck ...supposedly Monday and now Thursday? I have my song ready and half tattoo .

On Saturday Night

 

[der bomber28]

No but it is also very difficult to close two multi million pound deals at the same time. We are a busy club at the minute and to top it off, it's the first day of the season for us. Roma are close to freeing up a non-eu spot now anyway because Tony Sanabria is heading out so once that is finalised and Dzeko is gone we will see an official bid from us go in.

Definitely seems a lot clearer, when put like that. Cheers fella.

If you look at our squad list, we have room for 1 in EPL (Zuculini has taken Jovetic place) & in CL we have none as Iheanacho does not qualify as U21 so has to be in the 17 foreign players allowed. If KDB does come he can go into EPL squad no problem, but someone would have to be changed in CL squad. Either Zuculini or Iheanacho would be favourites, with my money on the former

I'm presume we could do that but it's not what we would choose to do if we have promoted Zuculini. People on here are flapping but City might be totally calm about it for all we know, just seeing it through over the course of the week.

Dzeko has not gone yet.

Dzeko's hasn't gone yet.

If "****" can be censored can the same be done for this cunts tweets?

 

[SWP's back]

How do we know he's told us he wants to join? Because bluemoon says so? None us us have a clue what's going on, and we shouldn't pretend otherwise!

No. Because I know so. Nothing to do with bluemoon or twitter.

 

[shortagain]

Dzeko has not gone yet.

He's not in the squad list either

 

[SWP's back]

If he has we're better off without him and his weak mentality

Don't disagree. Still think he will sign.

 

[goalmole]

I don't think it's that. I think he thinks he owes Wolfsburg and thought a big load of money would placate them. If it doesn't he won't upset them. Not a lack of ambition more of a mark of respect.

They bought him for £18M and they're now being offered close to £50M. What more can he repay them. He owes them nothing.
I think the respect and gratitude thing goes two ways. Wolfsburg are thinking of their own interest, De Bruyne is a mug if he doesn't think about his.
If he's putting some misplaced sense of gratitude before his own personal ambition then what that says to me is that he doesn't have much of it.
The people that succeed in this life are generally those that have a ruthless streak in them.

you're correct - the current list is not the final list.

 

[SWP's back]

How Ray? He's stayed professional, has a long contract and if they sell next year they'll get a big fee.

If they sell him next year, they'll get half as much from Munich
