MCFC... Ruining counting since 2008 ;)

Comparing Haaland to Ken Dodd is probably the funniest and most bizarre thing I'll read today - well done ! lol

So your out then?

He started his reply 20 minutes ago - so hopefully only another hour or 2 before he strings a coherent sentence together...

I doubt it but it's possible... when you sell debt on you dont usually get anything like the value of the original debt but yeah - certainly possible

IF Barca agreed to pay us x million per year for the fee and IF they have missed payment(s) then we could technically go down the legal route (and call in the "can't pay... we'll take it away" squad) but the optics of that would be really bad - I can't remember any club in recent memory doing...

Why not? It's all just shit's 'n giggles (until someone giggles 'n shits)

What we really need is for someone in Abu Dhabi to setup a company called "F*ck FFP (ltd)" and be our shirt sponser...

It is - but to be fair we've not seen anything other than daft in Football transfer fee's for a loooong time My take on Rice is that we see Arsenal as a genuine threat so either: a) We really rate him and want him - in which case we are willing to get into a bidding war b) We are just pushing...

No...No...No...No... But... free transfer, for 1 year then off to NYC...? just for the shits 'n giggles i'm in :)

Those players you've mentioned have at least some of the following qualities: English International experience CL experience PL experience Playing at a good level in another country Cucurella has 1 season in the prem...

And someone has been a bit premature...a bit like a virgin in the same strip bar ;)

Maybe the club got wind of your plan and that's the real reason we pulled out? ;)

Q: Who's bringing inflationary pressure into football & ruining it so smaller clubs can't compete? You've already answered it...

You really are a little ray of sunshine aren't you? Of course Mendy is relevant - everytime a club signs a player and they flop they learn to be a little more cautious... and I'm just talking about Mendy on the pitch (nothing else) If you think that City should have spunked £50m+ on a player...

I guess from a City perspective it's about managing risk, any team signing any player takes on an element of risk but signing Cucurella was just too big a risk at £50m+ He certainly ticked all the boxes as you've already mentioned in terms being a left footed LB etc but he's unproven and...

Maybe that is the exact reason why we are taking less risks

That really isn't how it works at all....

No idea as I don't do Twitter but seeing as nobody in this forum posted anything about it until after Sky released it makes me think it wasn't well known or even known at all until then...?

The more I look at the Chelsea "link" the more it seems a bit weird Not the link itself or the fact they would pay the £50m but since when do Sky Sports get a scoop like that before forums / twitter etc...? Never... smells like a planted story to me?
