Yeah recurring Both players were almost done and we missed out. As far as I know txiki is in charge of negotiations and if not then someone or something else is at fault. But to miss out on players who were practically done twice yet alone 3 times isn't something we can afford to be doing to get where we want to be.

We didn’t miss out. Txiki RIGHTLY refused to be held to ransom- & guess what, we won the league, broke tons of records. We made great signings but turned our back on one - the other aged player went elsewhere for the ££££. End of.

I kind of agree with this but at the same time I don't think that Txiki failing to land our targets is something that should be applauded. It's simply that so far it's happened to work out fine in the end.

Txiki and company (I would be surprised if Tixiki works alone) succeeded in landing many good players, and some were outstanding. Not to be able to land some targets every now and then is natural in this kind of business. I personally don’t know the exact reasons behind that, and I believe most of the people here don’t. The Club now clearly adopts a different approach in doing this business. It could be because of FFP, giving City a different image, certain budget that should not be exceeded, etc. Too complicated. As a City fan, I completely support the Club’s strategy because I believe they know their stuff much better than me and much better than the people who keep flapping on BM.

Blame has to be on txiki if this is true we had over two months to sign him only to get hijacked by a team with no ucl. This is starting to be a reccuring theme with Alexis Alves and now potentially Jorginho his complacency and slow approach has always been his weakest point imo.

#TxikiOut
 
Fuck me there are still weeks of the window to go, I'll start moaning if Mahrez and Jorginho actually sign for someone else, until then chill the fuck out.

Keep in mind that no reliable source has confirmed the Chelsea news im still optimistic that he will be a city player.

Nothing like being on the fence is there...
 
Any surprise that there are uncertainties about this transfer surfacing? Never forget the keywords: after every mountain is a valley

Perhaps you should leave your number so he can tap into your vast experience of transfer dealings ?

Players are not without choices and greed will always become apparent, as in both cases quoted.

Both players chose the money over signing for City !

That's not quite true though. Sanchez desperately wanted to come to us by all accounts, but our incessant stalling left him with little choice but to go to United. I have no doubt he'd have come to us and thrived if we'd gone ahead and signed him.

No what happened was his agent started a biding war with the rags so we walked away,we were never going to pay his last demand of 400 grand a week,if he wasn't a greedy idiot he would be here now,also the arses demanded raz at the last minute and we said no
