Well, the two aren't mutually exclusive. The particular allegations were bullshit. But as you say, that doesn't mean we didn't do something else.

In(~£270M For 8 Players | 7 Promoted From Within)
- Houssem Aouar(22) - £45M
- Thiago Almada(19) - £20M
- Rayan Ait-Nouri(19) - £25M
- Amad Traoré(18) - £20M
- Mohamed Ihattaren(18) - £25M
- Eduardo Camavinga(18) - £55M
- Tanguy Kouassi(18) - Free Agent
- Alessandro Bastoni(21) - £50M
The club made a point of dismissing it, although the optics of such a spend in the current climate could be a reasoning for it.
I understand it was The Athletic's claims that were dismissed, not sure who else might have picked it up elsewhere or wrote similar.
As you say Jack G is one of the very few City like to still court these days.
He said 6 new signings this week all for the 1st team.
Again absolutely no chance.
I also don't see any rumours of Aouar being likely?

This is why I've never held much credence to the Der Spiegel/ UEFA charges.
If any club truly wanted to bypass UEFA's rules, rather than doing it in a way which, if discovered, would leave them open to sanctions, there are many many ways of achieving that, without doing something piss obvious.
Exactly. I mean, Messi isn't short of a few bob. There would actually be nothing to prevent us paying his £300k a week wages (in line with Kev and Raheem) and choosing to directly wire him £100m when he has stopped playing.
Loads of CFG possibilities.

As much as I would love the above to be true, it does seem more like a FM/FIFA wet dream.This is from a post I wrote on May 2nd,

The question is whether we have needed to. In the case of someone like Messi, you would need sonethong extra but you could easily imagine getting creative without doing anything actually wrong.

Ezzy you are a complete fantasist with an obsession with young footballers. You need sectioning pal. And for anyone even believing 0.01% of the drivel he spouts needs sticking in a straight jacket too.
I thought he was a @Dax777 parody account at first.
