Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

Sorry if anyone has mentioned it earlier, but listened to Ian Cheeseman podcast earlier. He said he heard a rumour from someone that works at City at the EDS game yesterday that Leroy Sane injury may not be quite as bad as initially feared (or words to that effect). If he was back earlier would be a huge bonus.

With the step up from Mahrez, who by the way looks unplayable currently, we’re not desperate for him but he will be a huge lift to have back.

Only saying what Ian cheeseman said. Any he didn’t say that he didn’t have an ACL injury. Just maybe not as bad.

Mahrez was fantastic on Saturday but we have 60 games a season and enough games for everyone. Leroy is the only out and out wide left player if we want to stretch the pitch.

The germans have backed off quicker than fatman custis from a salad bar

Too true - only point I’d make is that Bayern are not representative of all Germans. Most Germans hate Bayern and their arrogance too. Vile club hated outside Bavaria.

It’s interesting that Bayern do see themselves as The German team - similar to the Rags and the Dippers (thinking the whole Country is behind them in Europe) - no emotional intelligence- think they are universally popular when they are despised by many.

Pep only said that based on the initial information that there was ACL damage.

He did not know the severity of it and just gave a timeline of the worst cases I would assume.

City now have more time to assess the situation and recovery so if there is info saying he will be back in 4 months it isnt outlandish and doesn't make Pep a liar.

Considering the scousers won the title at least 4 times last season, the only surprise is it took this long. Oh well, there's always the carabou

What's Rudolph got to do with it?
