Fernandinho completed, OS confirmed

With or without huge transfer fees, Soriano will squeeze as much money out of the fans as he thinks he can get away with. The guy does a great job but just watch the Barca documentary, his mind is always on revenue and how much money he can get out of fans (and others).

I expect maximising revenue to be a key objective for him and his team.

says 22 million as transfer fee on Wikipedia. :)

Yes, that might be because I am one of the users who maintain the City pages on Wikipedia ;)

I still think that £22m is the more likely figure.

 

[morleyswife]

£2m a season more on season tickets isn't going to make a tiny bit of difference.

Thanks that's why it has gone up 7% for the last 4 years. Clown. Get the meaning of my argument before posting. Clown

Our ticket prices are similar to fucking Norwich what more do you want?

So you are justifying paying £34 million by saying that Norwich season ticket prices are the same. Fucking great. Have you ever heard of Average income by geographical area. Even if you haven't I say it again £34 million

You don't actually know what the fee is do you?

I am hoping like Navas it's 20m plus a load of clauses to make it 30m.

Don't give a f*ck how much he cost if he wears the shirt with pride and helps win us trophies!

Look Ducado you are a mod on here and I respect all the blues on here who are proper. If this is true at 34 mill then so be it (and I have renewed). Please look at my past posts and they are always positive in the main. I just feel that this is too much and for people just to dismiss it as "we are rich" is starting to play on my mind.

Even though we are rich does not mean you over inflate prices. It has far reaching effects that fans do not realise long term and for the perception of our club.

I suppose in a way city fans don't care about money, I still do. Swales out

depending on which media outlet you believe the transfer could have been anything from £20 million to 40 million euros

hence his question

Fernandinho is more stepping into the Barry role I think. Garcia is TBD. Personally, I would think the executives and Pellegrini should make the decision.

Good post. If £34m is correct we have been seriously done over. However, if he does a job for us then it's money well spent. As with all transfers time will be ultimate judge.

A useful squad member.

tbh
i don't know what to believe
i have a (un)healthy sceptism regarding most of the media circus surrounding football clubs, particularly throughout the transfer window

If Pelle didn't want him at Barca, I can't see him wanting him here.
