Declan Rice

Have the chairs been put out yet?

Fuck that, what about the blue traffic cones?

 

[deano ou812]

I can’t even bring myself to watch the female woke pundit on Talk Shite, talking utter shite.

The mind boggles at how these pundits are picked and get paid big money to continually talk utter shite.

You know why she is picked,it fills a quota

Throw Palmer and Borges in the deal on season long loans

I think the prediction was that by 4pm Bluemooners would be saying that we should walk away from the deal.

Well they've largely walked away from the purpose of the thread - everyone is talking about the Eni Aluko instead now.

Big announcement today my mate said yesterday.

What a fuckin whopper.

I've blocked him now, explaining that I've made a tit of myself on Bluemoon.

Divvy.

only if people keep bringing it up

Touché!

 

[wolviedinho]

Dipshittery beyond words

Did Aluko just say she was a sporting director? Wtf? Also she used to bid for players to get her club to up the fee? Is it any wonder these people can’t get their head around city’s rise to the top commercially? No wonder Khaldoon is laughing at those charges.

She must be taking the piss. Why would city want to help Arsenal? Would rather we helped West Ham fleece the letter writing gobshites.

She effectively said if she wanted a player but her club were messing around with low numbers, shed ask other clubs to outbid her club to prompt them into paying what the selling club wanted. The legality of which you decide.
But to stop the moaners moaning… She was talking about the Rice deal so it’s relevant ;)

I don't see Borges going on loan but rather being sold, if he hasn't started playing for the first team yet, similar to the build-up for Foden, I don't think he has a future. He's a great player and rate him higher then Palmer tbf.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

What checks do you want placed on the media's free speech that don't already exist?

Retractions and proven lies taking up the same space and being in the same place as the original story would do.

He’s a pudding.

Yes… but I believe she stated she was sporting director so was in the US at the time.

I do t think it’s about the amount, more the structure. Rumour or however you wish to call it? Was that Arsenal had offered £80m plus £10m in add-ones. Issue was they only wanted to pay £15m upfront then the rest over 5 years (you’d assume the term of his deal?). City had offered the same but £37.5m now, £37.5m next season then £10m in realistic bonuses they could see next season also.
£90m is close enough to the £100m they want, we may now see City offer £20m in bonuses over a longer term which will sweeten the deal but I do t see either club offering more than the £80m actual fee.

A little convoluted but, in short, nail on the head! It wouldn't surprise me if both us and the Arse were prepared to meet the total fee demanded by West Ham. However, we have the financial muscle to offer a larger chunk up front.
