His agent was saying to the Barca board that they are about to lose a ballon dor winning talent if they don’t pay him what he’s worth.

Do Fifa have an award for Crock of the Year?

 

[Gingers Dad]

Keep an eye on Joao Felix.

Felix seems to flit between being the new Kun Aguero or the new Patrick Bamford

 

[oldius]

I think Felix would be fantastic in our team.

I have no deep desire for an out and out striker but having the option to change things up with a big, strong and pacy finisher up front has to be an aim. The difficulty, I suppose, is that we would want that as an option yet the kind of player that would improve us is not wanting to play 3 games out of ten, understandably.

I have never rated Harry Kane as highly as the British media do, but I am possibly wrong on that as I always rebel against the love-fest some players get in the British press.

Haaland is incredible at Dortmund but that is different to the PL and especially different to playing in our team when we face 10 men behind the ball every week. I think he would need a lot of bedding in and we know that our fans only allow that with some players.

Vlahovic looks like a player with touch and finishing ability but he is already becoming a big name and comes with potential agent issues.

Mendy won it thrice.

Mendy won it thrice.

That was Cock of the year, not crock.

I’ll think you’ll find it was cocksman

Would look appropriate in a Le Coq Sportif jersey

The requests @tolmie's hairdoo was referring to…

Hope it’s the number 22 shirt.

Should be free come the summer.

Obviously the number 9 shirt, which shouldn't be a problem since Jesus is trying his best to get as far away from being considered a striker as possible.

So we can't gurantee him a kit number? Seems absolutely dumb News

I didn’t actually think he wanted the number 22!

Am I mistaken or don't players often sort this type of thing out themselves?

"Gabby, I'll give you £5k for you to let me have your shirt number. "

"No, thank you."

"£10k?"

"No."

"Fifteen then?"

"Done deal."

Its very common in US sports, not sure over here. You would think so/

We’re going to end up with Darwin fucking Nunez aren’t we

 

[AlanBalls]

We’re going to end up with Darwin fucking Nunez aren’t we

And we’ll still break records.

I’d love nothing more than to see Little Alf in a City shirt, but I’m not a Haaland fan I’m a City fan. Que sera, as long as Pep’s still around we’ll keep winning.

Our transfer dealings can feel frustrating but don’t miss the woods for the trees. Pep knows best.

Darwin's on a goal a game in the league this season. No bad thing.

20 in 25 for the season.

I’m not saying Nunez is good or bad to be honest. I don’t know much about the lad. I am pretty fixated on Haaland (and quite like the idea of Felix), but I wouldn’t be pissed if we bag none of the above.

Kane is the only one I’m dead set against. I recognise his quality of course but him in a City shirt has zero appeal to me.

Other than that, I’ll gladly take whatever unfolds as long as it’s still Pep at the helm.

They rarely pick the totally wrong guy anymore, i'll be pretty happy with anyone. Cant say i've seen anyone in the target list makes me think "fuck, that'll be a waste of money"
