It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[foggy1974]

Sterling Zinchenko and Silva could still all go bringing in around 170m we bring in Cucurlla and gnarby for around 100m

Who's gonna meet what City want for Berny this summer transfer window. Barca seem the only club interested & won't have the money even if they sell FDJ

They going to sell more future tv revenue 15% of them that could bank them 400m but they still have to sell

So we going with £45m+10m in add-ons for Gabi, as per some claims, aye?

55m for Gabi, 55m for Torres, and some 50m for the academy kids, still up on the circa £110m on the 4 incomings.

Is it really true that we had to sell Gabi to fund the Phillips deal. That's what one scabby paper has stated today?

Sheikh Mansour has got bored at last. We've not got a pot to piss in now.

The narrative seems to be we are not selling to buy.

The issue is surely the number of changes. I love Gabby but he wasnt in Haaland Tevez Sergio levels. Sterling did drop off but possibly he knew,knows he is leaving. Zin was good as LB, but not world class. The one that scares me is Bernie possibly going, but not convinced of the Barca bullshit. Lets not forget it took Pep a season to gel a team.Really not convinced Txiki, Pep et all would be so silly to let all those players go.

Isnt most of that earmarked for loans that need paying this year. Laporta saying they want City to lower the fee by €40m tells you everything

There was a big discussion on here a week or so ago about The Athletic podcast suggesting we need to sell before we buy. Lots of very angry people on here, but the actual podcast was more a throwaway remark about us planning to sell players if we were buying, especially as we'd already spent a lot on Haaland (which obviously happened before the window opened, so it's almost forgotten than we've spent so much already).

Every year, if players come in, then they also go out, so it's not really any different, but by the time it's been misquoted a few times and picked up by a few websites, it presented as some dramatic problem.

Good with substitutions though
