It would really be interesting when Alves told City about his change of heart, assuming he had verbally agreed to join us before.
did you see what was actually written ??? he was digging like fuck in the end hahaha quite funny
I don't see why people are panicking about the full back situation. Our full backs were that shite last season that there are at least two dozen full backs around Europe who would automatically improve us.
We could do a lot worse that going all out for Bertrand and Cedric from Southampton. They are both decent footballers with the stamina and pace to improve our attack as well as defence.
Valencia, Porto and Benfica have also got some decent full backs and they are clubs who are prone to selling their best players.
Cedric been my first choice since watching him last season best right back in league by a distance last season. Could probably pick him up for 25m too.
He's a very tidy player and has always looked decent when I've seen him.
Maybe I'm overrating him because I don't rate Walker but I do think he would be a top signing for us.
Seen him play very well on the world stage with Portugal and premier league with saints a safe investment in my eyes.
cant be bothered trawling, but he said alves was going to be number 5,until it was pointed out that stones had chosen number 5,he changed it to number 15 sagna old number, it was then pointed out that sagna was number 3 :) funny at the timeWho was it and where was it? A bit of light relief would be welcome.
That other Portuguese full back looked a tidy player as well. I think he was a LB who might have moved to Dortmund a few seasons back.
He is out for 4 months after an operation mateYh but think he plays left wing for Dortmund sometimes very attacking Guerrero I think his name is

Don't understand this at all.
If Pep and Txiki thought he'd sign then does that make them KFA as well?

where does it say city had a gentleman's agreement with city/pep ????
maybe what happened was ,
alves asked juve if he could leave on a free, there must of been a reason juve agreed and it wouldn't of been so he could of played for pep one last time,thats not a good enough reason, alves it would seem wanted to live with his new wife in Paris where she is based ,or are people looking to slag tixi,pep and city off without knowing the proper reason ??
Maybe I was projecting my own wish on you mate. I think he is a promising player we should be looking at. Sadly not now due to the injury.Really I wasn't saying we should sign him just replying to a post someone made!
don't fucking call me plausible you cheeky fuckerThis sounds like the more plausible situation.
I think you can only play hardball if you're a selling club who has a player on a long term contract. We certainly couldn't play hardball with potential signings as you're trying to entice them to make the move.
