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

[Jesus H Gabz]

Just glad Peps put a lid on it before the inevitable crap questions start in the CL press conferences, it’s all a bit “it’s not you it’s me” kinda break up, the lads done some great things for the shirt but when challenged by Pep to go to the next level he faltered...you only have to look at the way Raz has grown as a player & more, that could of been him. We go again, plenty of classy players out there who’d love to wear the shirt. As an aside, the potential fee will be double our record received, Kelechi ? Which means we’ve hung on to our great players of this generation (Leeds sold Daffy Duck for 30mil in 2002!) more of the same in the next 10 years please

Nobody is bigger than the club and if he wants out then good luck to him.
Get as much money for him, i hope we stick a ridiculous fee on like the other clubs seem to do, let's see who really wants him.

Such a shame on the other hand as he's a quality player who gets you on the edge of your seat.

 

[Bill Walker]

always on the cards, he is a prick, said it 18 months ago. To much like Sturridge and actually not as good as he thinks. He was a great super sub but wasn't good enough to be a starter. Its a shame we wont see if he could have been a good 'un but take the 50 mill.

Haha you don't think he's good enough to be a starter for Bayern either ?
If he's as shite as you reckon why are one of Europe's top club's doing everything they can to get him ?

Just sell him to Bayern Fucking Munich, and quick.

 

[waspish]

Get. Fucking. Rid.

Personally I'd take whatever we can get once the season ends and send him on his way. Absolutely ZERO interest in keeping hold of him, even to try and make some petty point to Bayern.

I would much rather have a player who the manager trusts and who wants to be at the club.

Yep he should be nowhere near our first team be surprised now if he plays Pep doesn’t like a player not committed to his team. Also Sane knowing he is off if he does play why would he put 100% in he won’t want another injury before going home to the real Corrupt club.

+1 , sometimes its hard to find common sense here on Blue Moon.

The only thing that has changed is Pep has acknowledged he is leaving, it is still a case of getting what we want with money not being a priority, or rot in reserves, a full year is a long time

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Can't believe some are having a go at the club over this. He was offered a new contract two years ago. He only fell out of the side after he'd already rejected it. And we didn't do too badly last season did we? Bernardo and Sterling were immense.

 

[trumpton]

Fuck him off now.

As has already been said, even if we get fuck all for him we've had our monies worth. Can't understand why people talk about his potential and him being a world beater. At 24 years of age he should have shown more by now than he has.

As for signing Sancho, no thanks. Why replace a player who won't sign a contract with City with another player who wouldn't sign a contract with City

 

[waspish]

I know how this goes and it's already started on Twitter. People obsessing about the fee and crying about what City are losing.

We paid 35/40 million for him and we kept him for 3 years in which time he contributed to two very big seasons and a huge goal against Liverpool last season.

We've gotten our money's worth. Nobody should give one shiny fuck how much money we get for him. The only consideration is who comes in next.

Yep in that time he has been on around 60k a week so we got our money worth out of him get our money back then that be fine by me.
