This is going to rumble on for a while guys.

We aren't replacing him, so the Thursday deadline means sod all. This will go on until the end of the month.

I think they will crack and pay.

Hmmmm - so to be clear, we can sell him after the deadline? I thought the deadline related to sales as well as purchases, but maybe I am mistaken?

No the deadline is for registering, so we can buy or sell after the deadline just not register to play. So if a buying team can still register in their country as Germany can, we can still sell.

No just registrations you can buy a player after the deadline but not register them for league games till jan happened to someone last year missed the deadline by a min or so.

Ah I see. Well that is bollocks then isn't it. Another month of this shite. And I thought by Friday all this crap would be behind us until January at least.

I have never known a transfer story to be so inaccurately reported so I am not confident of my opinion, but I believe that he will stay on the grounds that he does not have a strong desire to leave. He returned to training, went on tour, played all the games, played in the Community Shield, and has said nothing, unless Pep is misleading us all.

The contract extension is unsigned, but that does not mean he wants to go to Bayern Munich. I think Leroy knows that if he went to Bayern Munich he would be under intense pessure to lift that football club from its current malaise. They have let things go too far. Robben and Ribery were allowed to play too long. Likewise Muller and Boateng. This is a football squad that has gone way past its sell by date. It's not a good time to move there. At City he is free to develop to his potential. He may not play every game, but he will have enough opportunities if he remains focused on his game.

I too agree it would be a risky move for Sane. He looks like someone who doesn't want to be centre of attention, just someone who likes playing the game. If he gets lumbered with this huge transfer fee and the reportedly big salary, Bayern, their fans and the German media will expect top performances week in, week out, especially with the suspect squad they have now, and we, who watch him at the moment, know he's not quite there yet.

I think he's tempted and is being pulled in more than one direction. By demanding this fee, City have given him one more thing to think about and I don't think he'll fancy the pressure to be honest. It'll cost him his loyalty bonus (if it's in his contract) if he demands a transfer, maybe that's why he's keeping schtum.

You can sell to any country whose window is still open. Germany, I believe, is open to 1st Sept.
