It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Wow what gave them that idea?

It's just nice to hear that they know they're wrong. Impossible to ignore at this point though I guess.

The fact that you've caveated that by saying we won't necessarily sign anyone sums up the current state of the club, for me.

Even now they can't act decisively.

You do understand there re 3 parts to any deal ?

Take this with a pinch of salt if you want, but heard from someone before that City do accept internally that the recruitment over the past 2/3 years has been not good enough for what we needed given everything. January is being taken seriously apparently. Doesn't mean we'll sign anyone, but I do think this January window will be different than the others - think there will be a genuine intention to sign someone for once.

Thanks for sharing. That is reassuring to hear, although it was pretty disappointing to see us already ruling out Guimaraes and Zubimendi. Hope they can pull a surprise or two out of the bag, because it feels like everyone needs a lift right now.

Still it’s weird that they have to actively inform reporters that we are not in for Bruno or Zubi.
I mean we may or may not get them but who informs this in advance.
Arsenal and Liverpool need Isak and Gordon. They won’t inform in advance, they are not looking at them.

It’s not even the case were we are keeping things close to the chest - the treble winners have lost 9 matches out of 12. They will want players and they will have to pay the premium. This report just gives a kick on the arse of supporters who might be getting giddy with rumours.

They had better take January seriously, because there's no chance we are getting CL football next season unless the cavalry come riding over the hill.

we need open heart surgery starting in january! never seen a team fall apart like this

No other team has ever won 4 in a row. It was bound to catch up with us eventually.

If we held a genuine interest in the players then we've obviously been knocked back. Bruno G because of the fee, and Zubi because he doesn't fancy the move.

Who's the best athletic, hard working midfielder in Italy? Sign them. They don't even need to be amazing, they just need to be able to run and get stuck in.
