Otamendi transfer confirmed

[Decepticon]

Welcome to Manchester to our new warrior.

 

[Pellegrini]

Interview is up on the website, thought he spoke very intelligently and was pleased to hear how excited he is at joining the club, wants to win lots of trophy's and "Push City to the highest peaks". He said he saw the Chelsea game and was very impressed with how the team played. Good stuff.

 

[leighton]

No, that's in Spain and Italy. The Premier League has the 17+8 rule instead. As long as they have a work permit they can play.

I knew I seen some sort of rule on the non EU players just thought it was like in Spain and Italy so its all good.

 

[Jackson-ctid]

Right. I owe you €40. You will get this €40 off me at some point in the future. Instead I give you a €50 stereo for a tenner and we call it quits. This stereo has not cost you a tenner, it's cost you that €10 plus the €40 you were going to get from me in the future, it's cost you €50.

It's actually worse than that. People that are including it are effectively saying they've paid us twice. So in your scenario it would be buying the stereo for a tenner and still expecting to be paid the 40 originally owed

I give you a stereo for €24, that stereo cost me €16 [Profit €8]
Instead of giving me my €24, you give me a better stereo for €32 [Loss €8]

In this scenario, we turned a €16 stereo into a €32 stereo for the cost of a €24 stereo. Win win. Net result is that Otamendi cost us €24m

For Valencia,

We gave them a stereo for €30
They also buy another stereo €12 [At this point, they've lost €42]
Instead of giving us the €30 for the original stereo, they give us their €12 stereo for €16 + cancelling the €30 debt [essentially €46m]

The net result of this is that Negredo costs them nothing and they make €4m in profit.

Not having a go at you personally mate but i'm sick of hearing this. It's worse than the media reporting Sterling as £49 million. We did not get him for £8 million, or £8 million + Negredo. We got him for his full price £28.5/32 million, whichever you want to believe.

Now that's the way to respond when pointing something 'inaccurate' out.

I like you Ninja Monkey....well, I like Monkeys anyway and am quite keen on the old Ninja's too.

You forget the impact performances like that have on potential transfers and to see our ground full and rocking. Thank god those watching abroad don't have to cope with Tyler.

We're making it very easy for top players to deal with us, both coming and going and word quickly spreads. Contrast that with the other lots stunts.

Yeah, but do these stereo's have pace?

 

[The Richard Wright Fan Club]

I want a stereo.

Is @Ric giving away free stereos?

 

[laserblue]

Superb signing. Welcome to Manchester Nicolas.

Exactly, City's squad is full of internationals and they have clearly been waxing lyrical about City so that can only benefit the club when getting in new players.

 

[Jackson-ctid]

Yeah, but do these stereo's have pace?

The new one that we've got comes in the same bearded style as the old one. It's better at the back of a room though, nice and organised. The older one was better at the front of your room, but after 6 months, forgets how to play CDs.

Doesn't need to be that difficult. We have sent them an invoice for €25M they have sent us an invoice for €32M. We contra the invoices and send them €7M

All books are now clean and everybody keeps there stereos

 

[leewill31]

Excellent signing and only adds a healthy fight for places at the back can anybody think of a club that has anything near the quality in defense we now have?
must be up for the fight to sign knowing that.

Otamendi must be really up for it knowing how much strength we already have at the back.

anybody seen this some of the comments from twitter a comedy gold as well http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...s-nicolas-otamendi-signs-for-manchester-city?

That's a long winded way of putting things.

The thing that people are struggling with is separating the balance sheet from cash flow. As far as our balance sheet is concerned we've received the Negredo money, It doesn't go by what money has actually changed hands, that's cash flow and dealt with separately. On the balance sheet, we received the full figure on the day Valencia signed Negredo permanently, it was booked in last years accounts and brought forward to this years, it doesn't change. Now, if people go and start taking the Negredo money off of another transaction they're essentially saying valencia have paid us already and have then allowed us to take that fee off again. which of course is simply not the case.

Now that's the way to respond when pointing something 'inaccurate' out.

I like you Ninja Monkey....well, I like Monkeys anyway and am quite keen on the old Ninja's too.

I don't know how to deal with praise on here so i'll just say thanks and call you a **** ;)

 

[BenjaniMwaruwari]

Won't get bored of seeing that beard.

 

[its a Barm]

just watched the video from OS think this lad is going to be a big favorite with the fans cant wait to see him play, our squad is now fucking awsome.

 

[Mike D]

The Argie left back plays for United. no?

It was just recognising our Argentinain back line not that we want to buy some sh*t rag left back.

 

[pudge]

Beast for beast.

Oddly, the day we sign Otamendi is Negredo's birthday.

 

[Jackson-ctid]

That's a long winded way of putting things.

Haha, yeah I was aiming for that. :) We've got a decent player, we can afford him. Who cares about the financial ins and outs.

dont know if these quotes are true but....

Otamendi: "I spoke with Di Maria and Aguero (About Man Utd and City). Di Maria told me playing at Man Utd was like prison."
