De Jong has only himself to blame.
1. He signed with that pr@ck Joorabchian, and that has sealed his fate. The club won't negotiate seriously with anyone represented by that @rsehole.
2. He turned down 100k/week
3. He doesn't understand that everything has changed.
a. We've moved on with regards to playing style and he doesn't fit any more
b. We've passed the tipping point with regards to recruitment. Players want to come to City now because of the way we play and the chance to win things.
Sorry Nige, missed the boat, ditch that bloodsucking non agent and accept a reasonable offer or move along.
Next!
