I wouldn't be surprised to see Txiki haggling over a few millions for Bertrand when all of this is happening.

I am. I hope I run into some rags tonight to bust a few people up.

Man City have £44.5m bid rejected, Chelsea ask to be kept informed http://www.mcfcwatch.com/2017/07/20/man-city-have-44-5m-bid-rejected-chelsea-ask-to-be-kept-informed/ TXIKI!

I was banned once before because I said we're missing our main defenders when we're messing around with Alves, Mbappe and Sanchez and this Domali Actually I see zero evidence that we paid anything else other than the "we would never pay that" statements I'm seeing here. Every media outlet...

We already paid £50 mil for Walker and now Monaco demands £55 mil for Mendy.

Surely gold if he leaves with a fee as long as we have a replacement in the bag. But selling him in preseason without signing a LB means 1) we're without any potantial LBs and Ferna plays there which doesn't look promising for a team aiming to win trophies and 2) Monaco and every other club sees...

So you can't have a normal discussion instead of making ad hominem attacks?

And here comes our declaration to the world and Monaco that now we really need Mendy and another LB so that Monaco can raise the price to £60 mil if they want. From another POV, Kolarov will bring £7 mil, Fernando is reported to go to Turkey for £8 mil, Delph was reported for £10 mil. That's...

That and also because we're desperate for a top LB. We must be the only team in the world without a LB in preseason. Monaco knows that, everyone and their dog knows that. Chelsea weren't desperate for strikers, they have Batshuayi, they can keep Costa if they want. And they're not desperate for...

Exactly. I think that assuming Mendy will wait for us til the end is just an illusion. If another club meets Monaco's asking price they can sign him.

But the £5-10 mil difference could pay the difference between our offer and Monaco's asking price.

This was said about Alves too and that's what worries me.

I don't know how a transfer works and I don't have to know how a transfer works. I don't play football manager games and I don't set out to become a DoF someday. I'm a fan and I'm interested in results. We were told that Pep wants Mendy. Our team is in preseason and we still have no LBs. We lost...

If I change my attitude and say "Ok, Txiki is doing best he can. We musn't panic. We must trust that all the news outlets are wrong and if we can't sign Mendy there's a good reason, then whoever Txiki signs is the best for us" would that be ok for u? Ok. I change my tune. I trust Txiki even if...

Because my logic is simple Karen. My logic is we should sign the guy. That's it. We have no LB. Is it £55 mil? Good. Pay the extra £10 and take him. The money the club will receive from selling Fernando and Delph is more than enough to cover the difference. The opposing view says I don't know...

If I get a plastic surgery and the result isn't what I want, can I not criticize the surgeon because I have no medical knowledge? What a logic.

If we end up signing Mendy, I'll happy be embarrassed and come here and say I'm sorry, but I'll be happy that we signed our target who's one of the best LBs in Europe. But I don't like the way things are going sir. We're about to hit August in 10 days and we still don't have a LB. Ya I admit...

I never played FIFA. I don't claim to have any negotiation skills either. I say just pay the fookin money. They ask for £55 mil? Then pay £55 mil and take him. No negotiation. When we have our first choice FBs, then we can negotiate for backups and that's Txiki's job, not mine.

I ain't suggesting anything but it's very hard to get through to someone when they refuse to understand. The owners made an investment to this club to create a winner club. OK? Thank you. Khaldoon just a month ago said the club expects to win a title or even titles next season. Did he? Yes...

Yes I am regurgitating what every news outlet reports. What do you have? What are you basing your arguments on? The belief that "we'll never pay that"? And where does that belief come from?
