It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[argyle]

It's just rank bad planning I'm afraid.

The big blues on here will get all defensive and come up with excuses but we knew for a year that Aguero was going (largely because the club unfortunately pushed him to leave) and we spent the entire summer waiting for Spurs to phone us.

All the money we've spent and we're glaringly short/empty at Left Back and Striker. I would also argue we're short at centre midfield.

Thank god we've got Pep. Can't imagine is very happy with the transfer team right now.

All been a smokescreen for Haaland.
Rags can’t afford him now thanks to Ronaldo, PSG can’t due to Messi and Madrid can’t as they want M’Bappe. Free run for City at £175M and he signs on Tuesday. Master stroke from all concerned…….

Lol. I do like the optimism!

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

Relax guys we will sign another CB RB and AM next window don't count on anything we actually need though that would be too smart

Have to make Pep earn the money we pay him

One can dream

I think he very well had a deal agreed with Ronaldo and City but then went with the highest bidder.

City trying to say that they said no is laughable. They obviously tried to haggle over the price thinking they were the only party in town and got gazumped.

Not the first time this has happened either.

This what probably what happened.

Just a reminder for everyone who may have forgotten but we did actually win the league last year and get to the CL final, it isn't like we are some mid table side desperate to get into the top 4.

If we assume that the two wide players in a front three are Grealish and Mahrez then we still have plenty of options for the striker role.

Sterling, Jesus, Torres to start with, give Delap some game time as well and who knows how good he will be.

And we still have a few days of the window left where something may happen.

I think far more likely is that Mbappe joins Madrid and Haaland joins PSG before Tuesday

I agree completely

The club are a farce with recruitment for the very best in their prime.

Or it’s just we are not that much of a big pull?

Ronaldo was always going to Utd above City. We should have just stayed well away.

 

[vicblueman]

First recruitment should of been a forward before grealish , no matter how good he is .
This season is going to be a rollercoaster ,when it comes to the big games we will be toothless upfront & pay the penalty .
The spanish guys including pg have got this transfer window wrong & have been naive thinking the signing of kane was going to be a foregone conclusion .

 

[Leeky]

everyone ge

Well apparently we are fuming with mendes as well so if we aren’t gonna deal with either agent we really are fucking stupid.

we've been played like a kipper by Mendes and Ronaldo, not the first time or the last
