All the comments about Jews and Nazis are simply derogatory, unnecessary and mostly stupid. I'm a City fan just as much as you, even the fact I am from Israel, and if you think that Manchester City is bigger football club than Bayern then you are blind or just fooling yourself. My point was that he had the opportunity to go back to Germany, play for a big club, be their biggest star and make more money than living in Manchester, the least attractive to be honest, and fighting for minutes of play.
 
That is very true. But doesn't make the league any less of a joke. You might get surprises in the scramble for 4th-3rd, but otherwise, a bayern monopoly of both results and players.

You asked a simple question, does it make sense for bayern to pay fairly for Sane now or wait till next season and take him for free. I told you why I think it does. You disagree, you think the pragamtism is sensible. To me, that's the exact same small-mindedness i say bayern are displaying. It isnt admirable, it is low and dare i say self-worshippy. If they really wanted the player, and were the big club they thought themselves, they would behave like one and have signed him by now.
If you think good business is bending over and accepting any demands, then by all means. But that's exactly what gets you into trouble with FFP. And Bayern aren't doing what I would do. They bid 40m. I would have bid just slightly more than it would cost me to loan a similar level winger for one season, so probably around 20m tops. There's only going to be a few months between the closure of the transfer window and 1st January 2021 anyway.

Bayern have a gentleman's agreement with Sane, and they consider him 'in the bag', so from Bayern's perspective they're bidding for what is the equivalent of a one-year loan deal for Sane. Say his contract ran out in 5 years time and, say, Real Madrid bid 40m to loan Sane for one season, wouldn't you accept it? I'd laugh all the way to the bank.

Perhaps you should try and get onto the Bayern management team with that approach.

So the assumption that Leroy only wants bayern runs right through from top arsehole to the fans then. Good to know. A loan of a winger for a second season in a row, third if you consider Rodriguez, is the ambition for a club of such stature, maybe they Should focus on celebrating their bullishness and spending more time talking publicly ablut other clubs and players than their own. Shows just how boring their micky mouse league really is and how meaningless the domestic success.
