And so it begins...

Silva signed in September 2012 to a 5 year contract, through 2017.

Why would we be scrambling to re-sign with 3 more years left? A lot can happen in 3 years to a 28-year-old.

Totally agree mate. My point about that was that I said & more importantly know 100% DS has not started contract talks. Yet a trusted poster says he has. It's July. Good news like that gets plastered everywhere v soon holidays or no holidays.

You know what I've sat on the bench at Carrington with DS & because of that I will die a very happy man. He's talked to me in English(he trusts v few) & asks me about my holidays & my life. I get to give him the thumbs up before most games inside the reception of the CB as he gets of the team bus.. You know what....!
Cheerio/Adios.

I'm an excited City fan sharing good news... Mangala no.20.

Good luck with all your other ITKs.

I'm off & good riddance I hear you all say.

He has not signed end of. It would be totally fraudulent for Porto to trade without releasing this info to their stock exchange, imagine buying shares today to find out one of the star players had been sold and the price was to drop as a result. Any financial implications like this would be disclosed immediately. Will it happen maybe, will he have the vacant 20 shirt, probably. Has it already occurred no way.

There are ways this could be a "done deal" without being officially signed off.

If he's signed he's ours. We pay his wages and a fee must of been agreed and paid either in part or fully. Everything could be in place, but signed it is not. He has not been registered as an mcfc player.

Don't think he is I think he got to know Merlin through his source. Don't take the doubters too personally Bluewhit the majority appreciate your input.

 

[Kompany is King]

Given the movement of top players in the media and Real's signing of Kroos how can we be creative to compete?

Would it be an option for Melbourne or New York City to sign a player e.g. Pogba and loan him to City? Apologies if idea already posted.

That's the only bit that confuses me too mate......everything is done.....why no announcement? I was thinking maybe they held off making the announcement to fall in line with the release of the new City shirt....get fans excited etc........but still nothing! I believe whats been said on this thread that we have signed him...but no official announcement is strange......
