De Bruyne?

Too much time and effort has gone into this transfer imo,subsequently,I cant wait to see this kid compliment our attack.Alongside Sterling,he offers us options we have been crying out for - both players also significantly strengthen our squad depth by allowing us to make changes without weakening our setup or disrupting our balance.As an opposition player,having to contend with our pace,power,movement and footballing intelligence.......its the stuff of nightmares.

He will be a City player by tomorrow......................simple as that. !
I do not claim to be ITK but think this deal was done in June, and allowed to play out to appease the German fans. Must admit though, that a Belgium person not having a simple understanding of the German language seems strange.??
Oh well, not a bad transfer window guys.

After living in Belgium for a number of years , very few Flemish Belgium's speak French but most speak English .
Wallonia French speaking Belgium's very few speak Dutch and very little English spoken .
Only a very small amount of Belgium's Speak German , mainly around Luxemburg .
 
Not sure why we expect him to put in a transfer request. The club are not bound to accept any such request and the player, no matter what talks have gone on or have not gone on, has no guarantee that the 'buying' club will acctually do the deed and acquire the player. He has no right to strike and I wouldn't want him here if he did. As he has a signed contract, Wolfsburg hold all the aces. If they will sell, good news. If he wants to come to City as well, better news. If neither of these things are true, then he isn't coming. We've just won NINE games in a row and added Sterling, Delph, Otamendi, Delph, Roberts and Unal. I, for one, am rather ambivalent about this whole KDB thing. If he comes, he comes. If he doesn't, we've got more than a reasonable shot at the title, provided we focus on what we have and don't get all Bullseye!

Owners don't forgo huge money just for another season. Especially when it comes to their direct rivals.

You'd think our straight cash offer would be more appealing, but can see why they'd be tempted by the prospect of keeping De Bruyne for another season and getting either Rode or Dante. Whether or not that is worth €22m remains to be seen.

Do you at least accept now that Bayern's interest is genuine, and not something I made up as you alluded to last week?

That would be an appealing deal for the club but I can't see KDB being happy with it

I see no reason to, Ric. And I never said you were making it up. I said it didn't ring true and it still doesn't. But I know it's your genuinely held belief. If I'm wrong, I,'ll hold my hands up.
 
I'm dangerously close to flapping. Sigh. Just a horrible feeling of dread now the scumbags bayern are involved, especially given Wolfsburg's puppet relationship to them.

Believed you from the start Ric, as I have said a few times this week this has all been played out in the VW boardroom.

Balls deep for Isco or AN ?
 
I just can't get my head around the Bayern interest, as hard as I try, as I don't see why Wolfsburg would prefer any option that involved improving a rival rather than a club from another country. If Bayern were offering more cash than us then I'd understand the conundrum but not when their offer is worse. Surely Wolfsburg just buy a Bayern player if they want one, with the cash we give them?
