It's Quiet - a new dawn

[BAB.DAB]

Coz he's got potential

So has every young player

This is all pointing towards a disastrous, humbling defeat away at Brighton.. .

It could also be like Trevor Francis debut.

(If he signs obviously)

So has every young player

Exactly

 

[BAB.DAB]

Exactly

So if these 3 top managers want him he must have something else too

 

[mosssideblue]

Like Paul moulden

or Steven Hendry and many many others who had great potential and with the correct surroundings realised it

I don't think I'd ever been so excited to see a new player. It was the new dawn...

 

[mosssideblue]

This place is feckin hilarious. Moan moan moan about not bringing in the players we need to take us to the next level. We court a lad who the world and his dog see something special and.... moan moan moan were buying potential and costs too much - make yer minds up lads and lasses

This is my last day in the office before 2 weeks off. Can someone pop round and do this huge pile if work for me so I can press refresh all day?

This conversation is clearly going nowhere, it's about the fee involved in harnessing the potential not the fact he has it. I'm not happy in displacing Sergio who is a proven potential with two kids in Jesus and mbappe, integrate them, but it won't happen, as we've seen a 25 mill talent came straight into the fray and pushed Sergio out of the team, there isn't a cat in hells chance we'd spend 150 mill and not expect Sergio to be further displaced.

He's a sensational talent. There's no doubts about that. Him & Jesus are the two stand out young strikers in World football and they'd both be at City. Little old City.

The fee is daft, no doubting that. As I see it, take it as £150 m for example, that's £80m for the lad himself. It's then worth the £70 million to finally announce ourselves as a true elite club. Beating Madrid to a player means more than just 60,70,80 million. It's a huge statement. Madrid have bullied World football for decades. Flexing our mite is worth it for me.
Oh and we get a sensational talent.

I remember wanting Aders Limpaar and losing out to Everton and buying Beagrie off them to fund their fucking move for our target.

Now look at us, going toe to toe with the very best.

Remember that too - although Beagrie probably turned out to be the better buy. Limpaar didnt really do it at Everton from my recollections.
