You keep saying that… this isn’t Dickinson’s Real Deal! What makes you think we would waste our time with a perfunctory offer, that only serves to set up our actual offer?

We bid, it wasn’t enough, Arse bid more and we moved on.

Something has changed and hopefully it's Bernardo saying he is staying

The asking price was a minimum of 100m , we bid less, so it was never going to be accepted , even more so with Arsenal still bidding.

This is the scenario I like the most, so this must be the truth on the ground.

She didn’t. She was talking unadulterated shite.
We didn’t get him because his value put on him by his club was more than we thought he was worth.
Nothing more, nothing less and nothing we’ve not seen before from ourselves.

Mate, several of us raised doubts as to whether we were seriously interested, or trying to raise the price Arse would have to pay. Me included.

Arse Bid £90m, & City's eagerly awaited bid came in at... Wait for it... The same £90m offer Arse just had rejected by WHU, but with slightly more favourable payment terms! Lol :-)

Summat stunk to me mate, PLUS I can't ever recall us getting into a public auction & we were VERY quick to end our interest today for fear of pushing it too far & being left with a vastly overpriced Rice ourselves!

Regardless it worked! We matched Arse's bid. Arse panicked & will now have to pay £15m more than they wanted, & £35m above their opening bid! Quality move by Txiki! :-)
