It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

Much as I love tolmie (don’t take that the wrong way) I think even he might have been given false hope

Im not so sure

After his initial posts i thought the same thing however he has since come back on and said "shit is getting real"

Of course with any transfer its a little out of even Txixi hands - the player in the end decides but the club can court the player (agent) normally and this will have some sway.

The difference with the potential transfer of Messi is that in this case, the player has complete control and we as a club just have to wait for the word and we must be getting some encouraging signs at least for some of this to be slipping through. The one thing I wouldnt doubt is that TH will be getting little bits of info from wherever he gets them and wherever that is it will be someone/thing genuinely connected to the club

Barca will sell him IF he wants out - they could make 100m + on a player who would walk for free in 12 months - they are in financial trouble

@tolmie's hairdoo give us a little more since those videos please...

You mean apart from giving us the first name, that talks are on going, and that the impossible is under discussion ?

Even if it doesn’t happen it looks like it’s under serious discussion

Stop getting your knickers in a twist just because he doesn't keep you personally in the loop.

I might as well try to elaborate a little further (just out of courtesy for my own excitement on Saturday) and say this info is coming out of Abu Dhabi and not from the Etihad (no fucker is back working there anyhow)

His father and reps have made direct contact very recently. Allegedly, they had waiting until Barca exited the Champions League (which suggests a particular mindset was already a while in place?)

Positions are being leveraged all the time, but there is something very different about this Messi chatter - we haven't been doing the chasing and I think Txiki and Pep had completely resigned themselves to him not ever leaving Barcelona.

Something big is seemingly happening behind the scenes. There are people working within the CFG genuinely excited about something big coming down the pike.

Messi would be a separate entity to our current transfer business, as the club briefed the press pack very recently that a report from the Athletic that we had £300m to spend was wide of the mark.

It's the hope that kills you ;)

Kane in incoming

Hate to say it but that couple of important saves from Neuer mostly with his feet 2-3x times, Ederson might have let them in ...

So, what is your point?
