It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

Deadline day should be fun

Grealish is a very good signing and will add a different dimension. However, not signing a 9 (which they identified as the main need) and not moving on unhappy players is a bit of a bust

It won't if Pep says on Friday all our business is done

Some real smacked arses on here lately.

There are still 6 days of the window left and we can't force a club to sell us a player if they don't want to.

Lets see where we are this time next week before we start slagging of the team who have built the current squad, won more trophies than I ever thought I would see and allowed me to see some of the best football I have ever seen.

If we're still looking for alternatives, I'm okay with that. It's those saying we're okay with what we have I have a problem with. If it was true, we wouldn't have put so much into getting Kane.

So we turned down Messi on a free to not sign a finisher at all this window? Christ on a bike.

Can't agree, we reinforced the one part of the squad that was already strong with the signing of Grealish, but no way is this squad stronger than last year. LB is still a problem, fernandinho is another year older and obviously we have no recognised senior striker. Not flapping but to say we are stronger is BS.

The Sheik has little involvement, other than initial investment. The people the Sheik has appointed do.

Not doing too shabby, are they?

 

[Vester]

So what you're saying is it's the agents that deserve the credit for bringing these players to City and not our transfers team?

No I said Mendes deserves the credit for the Dias deal and offloading Otamendi and that the other transfers was half a decade ago.

This. Lots of toys being chucked out. Club were trying to buy the England captain without him putting in a formal transfer request from a club who didn’t want to sell to an English club. I imagine it isn’t like buying a Ford Fiesta. Didn’t happen, move on. My only twitchy feeling is the whispers that we put players on the market and I just hope it was only the players who want a move. But then again I know FA.
