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

Bollock,i'm fuming if we sell to those ****s

The way they’ve handled the situation is appalling. However, the fact we are entertaining it means Sane is the driving force behind this

Does anyone believe that Bayern have bid £72 million for sane ?

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

So many on here still in denial about it

It's not about denial. Some of us, will wait and see what happens and not believe every media snippet.

Pep always holds the same stance - if a player doesn't buy into what we do or want to be here he goes, simple. If it's true that he will not sign to stay on then so be it. 100m euros is about right with him having 2 years left - For us that money will be reinvested into the squad, maybe not immediately, but the reality is we need to be thinking about replacing Sergio within 2 years and that will cost a hell of a lot more. We have cover for Sane already and I'm sure we may sign one more this window anyhow. It could all change if a ban occurs but I trust the club who seem to have a long term view of succession planning. Finally I've really enjoyed watching Leroy over the past 3 years and I wish him well back in Germany unlike some on here.

I mean that he was not really instrumental in the way we play. He is an option for us to utilize when we need the final ball. His numbers are inflated because of silva and kevin, without them he will not be getting those numbers. he has failed to improve because of his attitude and by no means instrumental to us. we are just loosing a option we might need sometimes and hence we need to replace him instead of making us weaker.

Haha on that rational every one who scores and assists only do it because of the others,centurians season it was sane and raz,devastating down both sides,he was very much instumental,no need to rewrite history

he was not instrumental by any means haha. he was a good option for us thats all. he never reached his potential.

Put the pipe down

He's become an option now but he was vital for us for 18 months until things soured. His numbers are unbelievable.

Can you tell me who that is? left footed player with pace that can play on the left side?

 

[manlikepep]

Worth remembering we only spent 30 odd million on him. Great bit of business

 

[blueparrot]

well we wont be winning the CL if we keep reducing our options and not replacing them.

Why ? have we got less options than last years finalists ? When you say keep reducing, you have no idea whether he’ll be replaced and if he isn’t it’ll be the only time so we don’t keep reducing options.
Maybe with Cancelo rumoured and Angelino in as Mendy back up we will play a different way and want our wide players to play inside like Bernardo , Sterling and Mahrez are capable of more than Sane.Or do you think Pep and the club are just winging it, and haven’t given it much thought.
