Laporte has fucked up on this one,not Txiki...IMO.
Hi mate....it was first reported in Feb that we had agreed personal terms with Laporte but we waited until this week to give him a deadline to pay release clause?....I dont know all the talks between us and Laporte during that time but we must have felt we were doing right by giving him time and stepping back during the injury, while all the time his current club have been working on an improved deal.....I feel since the time we agreed terms with the player, we've allowed his club to jump ahead of us.....just opinion but I feel this is where we failed in this negotiation...like I say, I really want Txiki to prove me wrong this summer....
Wasn't a dig mate,as some have said,if he wants to stay at Bilbao,good luck to him.
He's had the chance to come to "one of" the best clubs in Europe with huge ambitions,its a fuck up on his part IMO.
We ?Matt Le Tissier: "To play in the best clubs is a nice challenge, but there is a much more difficult challenge. Play against them and beat them. I dedicate myself to that".
Reading you guys made me understand that you don´t know anything about us or about proper football. Football is not the amount of trophys or the exchange of players from all over the world. Fuck that.
As Jon Uriarte said once: "Athletic Club, this is our Club. Everyone's and no one's. As singular in philosophy, as plural in followers . So respected as misunderstood. Some teams make history , Athletic becomes a legend . And that's because an undetermined day in an unwritten agreement , we decided to follow a peculiar way. We chose to be David when everyone wanted to be Goliath. That day we decided to be less victorious but to win more. And we understood that Athletic is a family matter. Football, believe me, has a secondary role."
Keep blaming Laporte about not signing for you. Maybe you should take a look at yourselves and ask the question again. Keep playing monopoly with the arab sheikh. And try to show some more respect.
And yes, the signing is OVER. We don't want or need the stupid money. All for you. Get over it.
By the way, how many mancunians in your squad?
