Isco

for all those catching up and going through all the flapping posts, nothing has really changed except madrid and MALAGA (not isco) have agreed a fee. im sure we have agreed a fee or we are close. The only difference is that the Spanish media have made the madrid bid public. The player only knows where hes going. Not AS,Marca,twitter or the mail only Isco.

When a bookie suspends betting pal sit up and take notice
what like betfred did. ok


when there has been no positive news about his imminent arrival to us in the last 48hrs and this is meant to be concluded by sunday and all the news and reports point to real then yeah most bookies will back off, i want the deal to happen like all blues but being realistic at the moment bar us having agreed a deal with malaga nothing else appears in our favour
It's down to the player, and what indications there are suggest we are favourites because of Pellegrini and the chance to play 1st team football in the Champions League

How the hell do we 'look fools again'? He's chosen Real over City! We all need to remember we are not Real or Barca or United. It will take a long time to get anywhere near them.

If he doesnt come, move on.

Why waste months trying to sign him if he wants to go to Madrid?

You have to take into account the will of a player, if he has made it clear that Madrid are his preference , we should have just backed down. Now, we have to endure a summer of ridicule as Cavani and Isco have both "snubbed" us.

Too true.

There's gonna be no point chasing a player whose made his intentions clear.

Why should we want a player who has stated he wants to play elsewhere?

Pull out, look elsewhere...

Have I missed the quote where he stated he preferred Madrid or something?

Well, if he signs for them, he prefers them.

I'm not worried by the new "development" that Madrid have agreed a fee.

Isco said himself that both City and Madrid have made concrete offers so I'm sure our bid has been accepted as well.

I'm still reasonably confident.

However, if he does go to Madrid, we have been made to look like fools again. Eto'o, Sanchez, Hazard, Cavani. We spend months trying to tie up these deals and then end up missing out at the last minute. I know it's difficult signing world class players because everyone wants them, but I would have thought that City would gauge a players playing preference before embarking on a 6 month transfer saga.

How the hell do we 'look fools again'? He's chosen Real over City! We all need to remember we are not Real or Barca or United. It will take a long time to get anywhere near them.

Come on mate. Don't put the rags in the same sentence as Real and Barca. They're a stockmarket blip away from financial meltdown. One of the clauses in the bond sale was that if they failed to qualify for the CL, the investors can ask for their money back in full. You can't just magic up £500m.

I'm not saying he has said he prefers Madrid.

Just thinking logically if that were the case.
