Josko Gvardiol

[roach3]

a very interesting post. i don’t have a theory, i just think it’s quite weird how this went from dealing with max eberl to city going over his head to oliver mintzlaff and then leipzig not only accepted 20m euros less than his rc, 10m euros less than their baseline asking price, but also no add ons at all except that friendly. did leipzig lose money for a potential future business opportunity for red bull in general? :D

and now the focus is completely on gvardiol being cheaper than maguire.

it’s 2023, everyone cares about optics, everything is pr.

btw according to transfermarkt maguire’s fee was 87m euros. so now we have schrödinger’s gvardiol, both the most expensive and the not most expensive defender ever. :D

anyway, i’m glad it’s done, looking forward to another round of plane tracking :D

Under the table?
Brown envelopes?

Negative? Isn’t it an interesting positive story?

they just didn’t specify it was one of his many coaches during different stages of player development in the academy. it’s info from an old but great interview, still on youtube.

I am not. It was a bit below the belt.

Just seen a piece by Jack Gaughan saying that with the signing of Gvardiol, City's spending since Guardiola took over in 2016 has reached £1.16 billion.

For context, does anybody know what our Net spend
( apologies to dippers ) is roughly ?

Thanks

What Mr Gaughan could've added was that it was money well spent as we've won the lot but instead it will just look like another cheapshot at our spending.

Can't be right. We spent 3bn on defence alone.
