Gabriel Jesus

[aguero93:20]

I don't understand if you have agreed to sign a player, why wouldn't it be announced once the contract is signed?

I hope to God its a done deal, but I won't believe anything until he's holding up the blue shirt on the clubs website.

We have a blue shirt? Someone tell Nike.

According to the report, Guardiola also called the young Norwegian Odegaard, when he was at Bayern Munich, and you promised regular performances in the main German club team to try to convince him to go to Germany. But the boy, now 17, chose to accept the offer from Real Madrid last year.
Another case cited by the "Brand" is the German half Sané, 20, Schalke. According to the newspaper, the tactic worked with Sané and Gabriel Jesus, who accepted the arguments Guardiola and only awaiting agreement between their clubs and Manchester City to formalize transfers.
"The Guardiola method - call players under contract - begins to annoy the big Europe, starting with Real Madrid, who sees the city as one of its major rivals in the future both in recruiting reinforcements, as the time to fight for. Champions. the City is building a timaço to conquer Europe, "says the report in the Spanish newspaper.

Fancy translating most of that video mate? :P

People who work with Gabriel Jesus say that it will be the City. The contract has already been written, just missing the signature...

But this was said on Friday. I do not know if something changed!

Real Madrid are getting annoyed because we're tapping up players they're trying to sign? Makes a pleasant change.

Staff and people who work with Gabriel Jesus say that the deal with City is almost closed.

Thank fuck for that.

Can tell you're not a FIFA or FM guy, Jesus was the man, used to always sign him and bagged 40+ goals with him so therefore he's gonna be world class.

You can get a pretty good idea what's being said by using Youtube's auto-translated subtitles.

It is saying the deal is almost done. No signature yet. Which is the point Flappers were making. Yes more likely than not he will sign the contract. But claiming something is done when you are not sure has become the norm in this forum.

If you have proof of say an introduction video being recorded with him ( I.e like some had seen Gundogan's and Nolito's) Yes you can infer from that a done deal. But inferring done deals from claims that a deal is close to completion is simply jumping the gun, even if you'd be right most of the time.

This rant really isn't about Gabriel or any acquisition. It's about speaking or should I say writing styles. People are generally too quick to call things "done." When 'in fact' that is not currently the case.

Personally, I'd rather folks (granted it is in good faith) tell me exactly what the current facts are as opposed to a conclusion they or their sources derived from those facts.

For example, here are 2 done deal scenarios:

"I saw the video of his interview for City, from that I inferred a done deal."

"His agent's are in town and have accepted personal terms and just checking out the hospital he'd do his medical in, from that I inferred a done deal"

Both facts above can be used as basis for saying 'done deal' And while the deal in both scenarios may get done eventually. If I had those 2 facts as opposed to someone's conclusions, I'd in my head consider 1 done, and 2 likely but not done.

Actual facts matter! End of Flap. If this could be considered one.
