It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

I don't think City expected it to be much lower, regardless.

I repeatedly read on these very pages that 130m would be could/would secure the deal.

If City don't win the treble that unbelievable clanger is going to become a super duper unbelievable clanger. Mark my words

WTF does the treble have to do with Lavia? Are you suggesting our continued progress as a super power, perhaps THE super power, in world football is dependent on a youngster playing in a demoted squad? You're going on as if Lavia is the second coming of Franz Beckinbauer...holy shit...

Yep.

The ‘so what’ is that despite all the recent hits in the market, City let a DM who could’ve given 15 years service go in return for a player that Pep has no trust in and would happily let leave this summer.

The result being Rodri having to play every minute and having to stay on at the weekend when he was gasping for breath on 75 minutes….

Chelsea will now get a top class DM for the next 15 years and Txiki will have to go back into the market and drop a decent wedge to find someone who can take the weight off Rodri.

The club doesn’t miss that often, but in this case it’s dropped an unbelievable clanger.

Absolute bollocks. Unbelievable clanger? Give your bonce a wobble. Lavia is ok but not at our starting level. I’m no fan of Phillips, but this is ridiculous..

The obsession with Lavia on here is borderline fucking weird.

I think it’s fair to say Madrid are his first choice mate?

Maybe. I just never believe anything on the internet without validation. Unless It's on here, of course. Then it's 100% true :)

But "apparently he looking at buying a house in madrid" Spanish media saying

 

[mcfcstu]

Hopefully! But then again do we want to be picking up seconds when we weren’t his first choice for that sort of money?

If he wants Madrid most of all walk away for me. Only want players who are 100% committed to the club.

 

[not my fault!]

€130m or £112m.. I’d assume they’d accept £100m straight up payment. Don’t forget, when they are quoting what Dortmund want, it'll be in euros.

So with Bellingham, do we have that offer on the table and Dortmund are waiting for Real Madrid to put something larger on the table? Or have we even gotten that far?
