I've seen £18m and £14m quoted as well but I agree with your point, if it's £10m it looks like another piece of really inept business, let's hope not.LongsightM13 said:Did we really only get £10m for Adam Johnson? And handed a chunk of it back to him in a lump sum? While Sunderland paid £14m for a relegated donkey like Fletcher? And Wolves also got £10m-plus for Jarvis? Only a year after Liverpool paid Sunderland £18m for a borderline championship standard player like Henderson?
Am I the only one who sees something wrong with this picture?
Who the hell is doing these deals? Weiss and Johnson gone for a combined £11.4m, less pay-offs.
Terrible, terrible business. Even fucking Wolves and Jez fucking Moxey are making us look like mugs.
Fuck me, some things never change at City. Buy high, sell low. It's in our DNA. From Malcolm's disastrous second coming to Clive Wilson, Trevor Francis, Anelka and Sturridge, we have always been a soft touch.
If we ever sold Vinnie, we would probably lose money on him. Jesus fucking wept.

I'm not an AJ fan and could have some real fun here but I'll let the absurdity of your post speak for itself.

it's mancio, he's absurd by default :)
at the time we signed him, we paid at the very top end of his value as a young, inexperienced championship player.cleavers said:I'd laugh if I thought you weren't serious. We've lost a player who frankly flattered to deceive almost every time he came on, and made £5-10m profit (depending on reports) yep buy high sell low.....LongsightM13 said:Did we really only get £10m for Adam Johnson?

At the time we sold him, we received the very bottom end of his value as an England international winger and title winner with a good goal record, not yet at his peak and with years left on his contract.
So yes, once again City buy high, sell low.
Take off the blue tinted glasses. We have probably dragged in £10m or so combined for Johnson, Weiss and Ade. That is shit. Awful business.
