It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

We bizarrely gave him a fucking contract extension, and still let him go on a free.
I’m certain that was a belated attempt to let Txiki try and recover at least a few miserable quid for his biggest mistake
Tbf there haven’t been many, but Mangala was a whopper. He cost us nearly £100m in fees, agents and wages
Still without a club after being released by St Etinne

We - and a lot of other clubs - moved players from 90% basic 10% performance related & bonus, to fifty fifty.

If they are in the team, they can earn more than before. If not, they are more likely to want to move.

Salary is now less than half the wage bill for big clubs.

Teams that didn't do this enough around that time: Barca, who are only just getting rid of the last of the deadwood.

Agree 100%. Mangala is just one we have to write off
Still bizarre we gave him an extra year though

Is that.... The Rock Of Gibraltar?

He's 19 so he would've seen more of City's dominance

He grew up in Germany and have been in his whole life seeing Bayern dominated in Bundesliga with two season having treble and sextuple season.

Why, oh why, are Kane and Nkunku the same colour!?

One of them is orange. Are you colour-blind?

 

[Keeper!]

What do you mean by he either shits or gets off the pot?

Pulls his finger out and shows his worth, he is a better play than we have seen.

Mentality seems to be a big issue with him, questioning himself if he's good enough for this club.

It was worth a try :)

Barca still haven’t registered Gundogan and he’s free to leave if they cannot. Time for a return, haha

They always find a way those twats. Happened with Kounde last season, miraculously registered the day before the season starts.

yup...regular as clockwork...its just all media produced hyped stories to keep the masses interested and clicking on "news" stories.....of course they will register him

Who’s next now then? Is it this mysterious player at a seaside club?

His missus would be gutted.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.

Injured now as well

How? Unless his wages are sky high

He'll probably be at Liverpool before you know it if Barcelona don't sort it out.

after Tolmie tweet about on the seaside with regard to a winger- what about kudus- lots of adaptability in terms of position/ good stats in league and champions league and good age. Amsterdam is pretty much on the seaside.

Bit of a stretch to call Amsterdam a seaside town ....
