It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[leo_city]

Kev coming up with our targets and alternatives?

 

[rorywheelhouse]

Report say his salary would be €31M

his shirt sales alone would most likely cover that

 

[OB1]

It was dropped, no?

There's no criminal proceedings. May still be a civil case or behind closed doors hearing.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Tolmie could this be citys final push at levy and also maybe push some club intrested in Ronaldo? We know mendes was in town last week maybe he's helping us try and push levy?

Very possible, but Bernie is the guy he has tried to manufacture a move for.

It was him proposing Saul Niguez the other month.

 

[I'm Blue]

Why didn’t we just go for Messi with him being 2-3 years younger. Ronaldo is 36. I’d be really sorry to see us sign him.

With Messi the reason we didn’t go for him this time was probably because he’d fucked us about so much.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Yep, agreed, mate.

Hardly creative meeting Grealish buyout.

I suppose it was said when he may have thought Spurs would be interested in some of our players, but he isn't a stupid man.

Far from it.

Khaldoon just knew that most clubs haven’t got a pot to piss in and consequently were going to want even shitter deals than usual off us.

Stamp on your phone.

Told ya print at home was way to go ;)

Don't have a printer anymore, I stood on it and broke it, that's why I couldn't print at home tickets

 

[Turner92]

Imagine chasing Messi for so many years to end up not even offering him a contract when he was avaible on the free and going for Ronaldo instead

 

[leo_city]

I get the age factor, but I've seen footballers below 30 less fit than Ronaldo is. Just a matter of getting the right player, short term or long term.

 

[Marvin]

I didn't want Messi or Ronaldo at City simply because they are the past but if its Ronaldo or Torres I go for Ronaldo and Torres learns.

It's not ideal as I am not convinced he's capable of scoring 20 plus goals for City. Mind you he is good in the air. he may not be that mobile, but I'd back him to take chances. I think I'd take him as a fall back option.
