Fabinho

Any chance we could get back to news on Fabinho

What you're missing here in Ligue 1 is not the NBA. To think these Monaco player(s) who are City bound will have the media hounding them like KD is hilarious. KD totally different. Different points in career, KD sees window closing at winning a title and bolted. Silva is 22 and everything is in front of him. Ditto for Mendy and Fabinho.

Yeah, no one buyed him, he choose himself.

He's 30... hope they sign him.

The only effect signing three players from Monaco will have its making us stronger. The rest is just guess work. You have no idea if futures players will not want to join City, just like you have no idea if the Warriors will struggle to recruit because they signed KD. In fact, the opposite is more likely, if we won more next season then recruitment will be easier, same for Warriors. Nothing like success to make people want to join. The reason people are getting frustrated with you afrenchguy is because you are repeating the same point. You think buying three players is bad, our fans don't. No discussion really as all conjecture. Final point, most fans here are not under 20 and so don't care if other fans and media hate us, not because we want siege mentality but because all we want is to enjoy the football we watch.

So you agree with rest of statement? Seems an odd thing to argue. It's free agency and KD bailed on OKC as he (rightly) accepted that team as it was structured could not compete in West.

But please back to why City will be tarnished for buying more than a few Monaco players....

Especially when there's not the same pay off.

But Monaco fan's are fully aware of the situation.
I only talk about what the basic football-follower will think.

Just like KD. It's the best example mate, he did nothing wrong, he promised nothing to no one, the only thing he did is left OKC for the team that beat them the same year.
And if OKC-fans feels betraied, all around the league, he have been whistle, hated, etc etc. And this will have a huge impact on the warriors in the next years, trust me.

Let's assume for a moment that you make a valid point, we'd much rather be a stronger team on the field and win trophies whilst being painted black than be the 'nice guys' who aren't strong enough. The most imortant thing for us is to give ourselves the best opportunity to thrive so thanks but no thanks. A lot of times success attracts envy and hate so we couldn't care less. Genuine question: how would you feel if you lost 3 or 4 players to City?

Send him a note ... that way you could say "Ive been having a discussion with a French Letter"

I don't give a rats ass what other fanbases will think about City if we buy 3 players from a team who "beat" us in "C1", and I'm pretty sure other City fans would feel the same. If anything, it's Monaco's management's fault that they are bending over for us. It's their repo which will be tarnished ("selling club", "feeders" etc.)
