Cristiano Ronaldo

Will be glad when this transfer window shuts, it’s been a complete shit show especially when you take into consideration we spent 100mil on a position we’re already stacked in and the lad isn’t world class (yet).

Our striking hopes now lie in the hands of an unproven 20 year old, if Pep even plays him!

Another meek title defence beckons. It appears that the execs have learnt nothing from previous windows after winning the title. Another meek title defence beckons.

Has the transfer window closed then?

We need a statement signing, a signing that would elevate our profile and validate everything we have achieved over the past decade. Someone wanted by every top club in the world, hopefully it's Haaland next season.

That’s the spirit!

By the way the window’s still open….

The irony is that journalists and Man Utd fans have flooded the media to complain about City buying players yet once again it is their club which is throwing money at their team.

High time the club fought back, but again there is a reluctance, so it will continue.

can't see the repo man trying to get the keys off them, can you?

Again not the point. They have to pay the debt instalments which must impact on the club

 

[mat]

maybe the club don't want superstars, especially Pep.

Indeed.

I'm putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 5.

Pep got wind of him coming and told the board he's gone at the end of his contract should they continue to sign him. Khaldoon knows he isn't bluffing and pulls it.

As a positive he joins the scum ans even PiGMOL can't help them without making it look too obvious as the other egos start knocking down the chief execs door demanding pay rises or downing tools.

 

[paulsimpson]

No, they are doing the opposite mate. They are saying we were ronaldo's preferred destination even when he knew if United's interest, he wanted to come to us but we were the ones who decided to pull the deal as our recruitment team don't think he's right for us.

I don't not believe that at all. Why would City pull out? The only reason is that there was a perceived sense of coolness on R 's part or something from His side that just smelt fishy . Simple as .

 

[kanovic]

I'd say joint favourites at best (maybe 2nd). They've improved under Tuchel without a doubt and Lukaku is a definite plus for them but the people who think they've surpassed us overnight are just bedwetters.

I don’t think they have are above us but they know how to get results where we still struggle. They will be a lot more clinical too. I would be more confident if we didn’t need 30 shots to score 1 goal.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I genuinely would not be surprised if this is a big reason why we hesitated.

 

[burning blue soul]

Klopp said that whoever bought CR was "short-term thinking" or words to that effect... I agree and now his criticism is at Manure's door and not ours....

Who gives a flying fuck about what that hypocrite spouts off? The guy lost any credibility when he moaned about high spending clubs, then went on to record spend.

He's a wanker, 1st class.
