Most players in Europe - even with the top clubs - in other leagues than the EPL agreed on wage cuts because of the situation as the solidarity with their clubs and the non-player-staff in the clubs. In Germany every club did - so did Barca, Real and Juventus.

So fucking what? If you can't pay your bills, you are not allowed transfers, cf Portsmouth's ban by FIFA.

His reasons for leaving are of little concern to me. I didn’t mention his wages etc
What pisses me and every other City fan off is the way your despicable club has conducted its courting of Leroy through the media. One lickspittle after another has been wheeled out in front of the media to blow sunshine up his arse and tell him how great he’d be at Bayern (Lewandowski this week). The blatant disregard for any semblance of etiquette regarding the transfer speaks volumes about the pure arrogance surrounding your fucking club.
When you put the above together with the way Rummenigge has slagged City off at every opportunity, the holier than thou attitude towards finances while your club president was investigated and subsequently imprisoned for fraud, and the very strong suspicion amongst City fans that der spiegel is nothing more than a mouthpiece for your club’s hierarchy then you can see why I’d rather he signed for someone else.

Convicted financial criminals calling out our club and ownership. Did not know Germans did irony!

Bayern are a despicable club.

Sane's interest for going to Bayern is not just fueled by money. He joins Goretzka (who grew up 5 km away from him), Gnabry, Kimmich and Süle - all players he knows since a long time and who he is close to. I do not think Bayern would be that attractive for him without that.

I think that some still did not realize in which situation the transfer market is. Most clubs have lost enormous amount of money - they asked players to take money cuts, too - and there is a lot uncertainty about the immediate future and the incomes (not just stadium income but TV money and less commercial income because of the recession). To go out in that situation and pay big for transfers and to pay a new players big contracts... Sane with his wage and the transfer sum will still be not bargain especially if you consider that he comes from a season long injury.

If true:
Going to play with his mates in a one, bully, club league v playing in the best and most competitive league in world football is a lack of real ambition imho
 
When players are lauded by almost everyone in the world, but can’t get a regular game on the weekend, they get unhappy in a hurry. Throw in the fact that he is living away from his family, who have been instrumental in his life and career, and you have two easy answers to why he wants to go “home.”

Adding fuel to that fire, he seems like somewhat of a fragile person who has not been coddled by Pep, but rather chastised. He is a German National Team player, of German parents (one of whom is his agent) and he just had a child. His worth is extreme, matched by his potential.

I don’t like the way IT LOOKS like this has all happened, and City would be crazy to try to force him to stay, knowing he is simply biding his time, with the only carrot for next season being the delayed Euros.

It all seems to have an inevitability to it...he leaves, City lose a top, top player, and he goes for pennies on the dollar. Fucking Typical City! But, I’m not sure there’s anything they can do about it.
