It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[The1nvisibleMan]

Starting to think that there’s a possibility that we might not sign anyone this summer. Or no big names anyway. Wouldn’t be the end of the world either as we’d still be favourites for the title.

Grealish, Haaland, Kane, Lukaku and every other big name we have been linked with seems beyond reach with ridiculous numbers being thrown about by the selling clubs.

We could stick to our guns and wait because we’ve got a strong enough squad. Pep’s recent comments and Simon Mullock’s (no idea whether he is reliable at all or not) info re Grealish and Haaland seem to suggest this.

Think we’ll get a better idea when the season is wrapped up

We've been sending messages all week.

To Sergio, to Mino, to Dortmund and others.

Most importantly, to our own squad.

The first art of negotiation is the other party being told you are willing to walk away.

Seems from the Mullock-report that Aston Villa got the same message as Dortmund (lower your price). Did Sporting get the same message?

Mine cost £30 from Argos.

What kind of **** spends £30 on a watch?
Mine cost £3.98 from a Jet garage

Does it work ?

Does it work ?

I've still got a Hoppalong Cassidy ( for the older members ) watch by Timex , but it sadly doesn't work.

Probably as well as I would get some real shit for wearing it in Alderley Edge and Wilmslow.

Agreed,10k is plenty!

Patak philippe perpetual calendar, IWC spitfire or omega sea master. Brietling Navitimer is nice too.

All great watches but pricy as F@“”k but you get the quality you pay for - same as strikers really.

Aside from the claim from Simon Mullock that we have walked away from Grealish, there's not really anything new, beyond it?

My info remains the same, we will take Douglas Luiz back this summer or try leverage against a Grealish purchase.

We've said on here Alfie is the main driver for Haaland and that we are right at the table for him.

We've said on here that City want to leverage the Sancho clause against a Haaland discount.

We've said on here that Messi is a stand alone deal, we are leaving it up to him and won't push him either way out of respect.

Pep said all he needed to achieve at his presser.

There is a decent Haaland feature today in the Mail on Sunday with Jan Age Fjortoft.

He is close to the family and Alfie. He gives a decent opinion and inside track on who calls the shots and what drives the kid.

It is also suggested the buyout clause may not be legally enforceable next summer (don't know where that is sourced)

Fjortoft is of the personal take Alfie will stay if they Dortmund secure Champions League football.

Is there no chance we keep Dinho given his performances?
