Thick ****? How much money u got sat in your bank account? $6.7m? Not that thick!!!

Ones bank balance is not relative to ones intelligence.

That's what I don't understand, how the fuck do Fiorentina know we've signed Alvarez when nothing has been announced from our side yet. I wonder if they were looking to sign him to replace Vlahovic?

We have no chance to sign Vlahovic tbh, if he had choice between Juve and City. He still choose Juve over City. Really strange i know but that's Italian based player will prefer do.

No that it matters now, but i think that's wrong. If Vlahovic was our number one choice like Kane and Haaland seem to be, he'd be a City player right now.

If only Juve is not interested on him then yeah we have a chance but if not then it will be difficult. Juve is always be a dream move to him, he will always prefer move to Juve no matter how much we offered to him.

I briefly thought I saw Joey Essex's name in the bread aisle this morning.

My mistake, it said thick cut.

Why, has he always dreamed of being relegated for match fixing?

Atleast he is able to call himself a Juve player.

Most City fans seem convinced that this one is different and this guy we only heard of a week ago is going to be the next big thing. I'm much more cynical.

For me, whenever we see the words "he's signed and will be immediately loaned out" it kills any excitement I had for the transfer. Only Zinchenko has actually done that in the last ten years and made it in the first team and that was sheer tenacity. Otherwise I have to assume we're only interested in the profit.

I’ve seen enough to know that he will suit our style of play but could benefit from a little more time playing centrally. He’s not long moved in off the wing. At present, we’re simply not in the luxury of being able to accommodate anyone in the middle who is still learning their craft. Torres showed glimpses but was slight, inconsistent, and probably homesick, and while Delap has the physique to excel in the middle, he needs game time and another season to develop physically. I think therefore that it’s an astute move.

After all, we’ve spent over a year honing our system, so his arrival now would not be the difference between us winning the title or the Champions League. Far better to secure his services now and then use them when we can best benefit.
