Cristiano Ronaldo

[Maly]

We literally don’t have a striker you fucking pillock.

Stop, you’re making me cry with laughter

In fact don’t stop, carry on thinking the club is incompetent because you’ve not got your shiny new toy


& if I don’t get it now, City are incompetent pmsl

 

[Bluemanc100]

The next bit of news we will hear is that we are now sending Liam Delap on loan to the Bundesliga for match experience. Wouldn't that be the icing on this transfer window cake?

Probably bang on

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Totally agree, and I am more than happy we did not.

But it seems to make the manager look a twat, that is a problem, regardless of Kane or Ronaldo, we need a striker.

If it is true that Pep specifically wanted Kane and hasn't pushed any alternatives then I'm not sure the blame can lie with Txiki or anyone else.

We've been here before with the Kompany replacement.

I didnt work it out. I just watched it happen again, and pointed it out.

Read what I said again, I'm pointing out that people repeatedly say odds mean nothing. That isn't really true.

I read what you said and I'm saying they don't mean anything. they're algorithms designed solely with the intention of minimising risk and potential loss, they're made up by machines based on betting patterns.

You're using the fact the odds for him to go to united tumbled quickly to back your claim but what about last night when the odds on the same thing were heavily backing city? What about the odds on Kane coming here all summer? Literally thousands of examples to counter the ones that turn out to be correct. If I was Jeff bezos and had that kind of money, I could theoretically go and stick loads of big money bets on Ronaldo going to Liverpool and instantly make them the bookies favourites to sign for them. The odds are reflective of the information that's available to the public, they have no way of validating that information and therefore have no meaning.

Personally I think city are better at signing players that might become the next Kane. We have a pretty poor record at signing ready made so called superstars.

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

“Danny fucking Ings? Don’t make me laugh. We’re going after Harry Kane.”

“Messi for free? We were tempted last year but this year we’re in for Harry Kane.”

“We’ll pass on Harry Kane, Ronaldo is available for £25 million.”

“Liam Delap has got huge potential.”

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

So utd offer Juventus what they asked for, and Juve accept. That was pretty easy.

They offered half a million a week for Alexis Sanchez, they have form for being a bit too eager where we don’t bother.

 

[Bluemoon_420]

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.

Spurs are backed by one of the richest men in the world, so stop the narritive.

Is that relevant? He hasn’t offered to pay for the stadium - he’s made them take out a huge loan which must impact on the club

I was with around 8 chelsea fans in a curry house opposite my Airbnb and despite a little animosity at first I ended up having a few beers with them and chewing the fat... All 8 were adamant that they were there for the beer and that no team beat a Pep side three times in a season... Clearly Pep didn't give a fuck about the players or us fans and did it "his way"... Unforgiveable for me

Totally agree mate, it was probs an over the top reaction by me and some others,, but if we would of sacked him straight after it by fuck I would of cheerd that,, lol,, I actually still can't believe he did it

 

[bballchinaski]

He has never upset the cart at any club, so why should he now?

he did it at every club besides sporting, actually

 

[hilts]

You don't think we tried to get kane Ronaldo and Messi?

 

[Super-Barwuah]

Who cares

Tbf the journos were right this morning ronny will be 37 in Feb and hes not the ronaldo in his pomp :) so its a big risk ......wait....

 

[Marvin]

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.

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

 

[BooksReject]

So, we're still in with a slim chance then?

 

[kanovic]

Is it crap logic or is it about patience? Do we have to spunk huge amounts of cash on the other clubs who do have that patience? And missing out on top 4 with our current squad? Really?

We are top 4 club in the world mate. Wtf we would never for patience. We are not a small club and we want to win on the biggest stage. Come one now.

 

[willipp]

How do you know we haven't got something else lined up?

The fact we were clearly interested in getting Ronaldo suggests we have no other plans.
