De Bruyne?

[Rammyblues]

I think figures can be discussed between clubs, without a formal bid. It would be easy to assume that KDB's demands have been met through speaking with his agent, and that were agreeing a fee with Wolfsburg before an official bid is made. Not sure what the hold up is, but I assume its something to do with allowing Wolfsburg to put groundwork in on a replacement player and a lot of PR put in progress by both clubs. Hopefully before a very swift transaction that could see him here before tomorrow evening.

Agree, just like going in a shop and asking about how much something costs but leave it, enquiry made but no bid for the item. Couple of days later, you want it, so you go back and after a bit of bartering you make a firm offer which if accepted allows you to get the goods. May be simplistic, but that is how I see how some transfers are done.

Have there been any comments / views released by those involved in the ''negotiations'' ?

Perhaps a voluntary NDA by both sides because of the anticipated problems to both sides has been agreed beforehand rather than making these problems subject to public scrutiny.

You think that anonymous lad is actually itk?

If he had got today right I might have had to take him more seriously, still plenty of time to go, but as far as I am concerned he is not ITK

Glad to see that. Not their official account and no pic to prove it. P


Didnt think you was mate. I am certainly know an ITK mate. My mate knows a lad who has something to do with City. Not even sure of what. Just want it done now and announced.

It'll all come out in the wash eventually.

If you're going off the Sterling signing he got one day right from around seven guesses and deleted the rest.

Again all this we might discuss prices but not make a bid balls. So Pogs and De Bruyne have both agreed to come but we are flirting with the clubs over a price. Early days maybe but not so much Pogba which appears dead De Bruyne was a main target named well before the season had finished. How we find ourselves in this position with the season started without a conclusion either way is beyond me. Yes deals may be complicated but 3 months worth of complications?

Bid, get it accepted, sign the fucker. Easy :)

Despite all the grief he/she gets - yes. I was speaking to a club official the other week & they are certainly pretty pissed off about the account & are equally in the dark about who it was, just the fact they raised it means they have access to some goings on.
