De Bruyne?

Or Isco for that matter. Or splash an extra 20 million quid for Bale. I bet Bale's transfer would be a bit of a saga as well.

No transfer could drag on longer than this one. We made our interest clear in June and now we're less than a week away from the end of the window.
 
I wish I still shared your confidence but I cant. I really feel that they never had any intention of selling him to us that is evidenced by there refusual until a few days ago to even aknowledge us and the constant, its very close posts but nothing comes of them.
 
Yeah, what is really getting on my tits is the fact that he hasn't publicly stated what he wants, if he had stated that he wants to stay at Wolfsburg for the season, we could have pursued other targets. Now it leaves us with very little time to bring someone in if he doesn't end up signing for us. Seriously needs to grow some bollocks and get a backbone.

No wonder his ex was shagging Courtois behind his back, probably wanted more of a man than this little spineless toad.
Hang on in there. Only another week to go.

This transfer has completely put me off transfer windows for good now. I will never ever waste my own time and effort talking about transfers ever again after this one. This saga has literally been the death of me, absolutely pissed me right off from start to finish.

My confidence is well founded and like I said, Wolfsburg have always been willing to sell at the right price.
 
i would be very shocked if we can get a big name alternative with only a few days left. Biggest name possible off the top of my head that's actually available is Levezzi but then we would be reaching United levels in buying castaways. Let's just hope we actually see some NEW major progress soon.

The right price seems to change everytime we make an offer though, and while it seems to rile some people up to say it, at some point City have to say ok he is not worth what you want especially as he really doesnt mind if he stays or comes to us.

I share you're pain but I bet you, me and everybody else will be back for another dose next summer.

Hah thats the most painful part! I will say this, but it will never happen, i will be glued to my computer and tv screens next season when transfer window is open and we are linked with a number of players.

Gab Marcotti thinks City are in the drivers seat, i just hope we stump up big money on the table in order to force Wolfsburg's hand and persuade De Bruyne to come here. Would be an absolute buzz around this forum if we signed him, would be fantastic. Fingers crossed.

You need to realise that no one in the media actually knows how much we've exactly bidded already.

City know what he's worth and when he does eventually arrive it will be for a price that we know is right.
 
I think he was voted in the Lige 1 "flops of the year" team last season. Not that that means much; think Mangala was in some papers' equivalents over here.

I'll have you know, Divock worked hard for that title & thoroughly deserved it.

Some of us enjoyed many hours watching him, whilst keeping tabs on Rony Lopes.

As far as I know he is back at Liverpool. The reason nobody has seen him yet, may be something to do with him being shit.
 
really dont think that this will happen anymore, disappointed, but would you really want a playery that isnt bothered if he stays at wolfsburg or comes to city, that shows zero ambition.

I have no idea what's going on with this transfer, however if he stays at Wolfsburg, I agree with you there.
If it is down to joining us or staying with Wolfsburg, let's look at it logically...

Join us and be a genuine favourite for winning at least one of the three domestic cups on offer... if not all, and if we play to our potential, a good chance of getting far in the Chumps league this year.
or...
Stay at Wolfsburg, no chance of the league, an outside chance of a cup - in the CL, no chance!
