Not sure if posted so sorry if this is a repeat:
Apologies, I thought you'd added the last couple of bits.That's not my opinion mate, I've posted it from a news report.
As far as I know Pep nor City have stated he/Pep signed for us. That is the moment everyone will know.
L'Equipe could be wrong, so could Martin Samuel who is simply a columnist at the Dail Fail of all papers. Martin Samuel despite all his sources didn't know anything about the Chinese deal, now did he?
It's funny that we mainly state not to trust the papers. It seems to be the case unless it's something nice about City.
I personally get sick and tired reading these daily stories about Pep. And all these clowns and papers who say they are ITK. And the people who simply believe it because they so much want Pep to join City. I hope he comes to us, either this summer or the next one. If it happens, I will be happy. If it doesn't happen I'm sure our owners have a few more tricks on their sleeves to keep our club progressing one way or the other.
No.Even a player in the last 6 months of his contract can talk to potential suitors.

To summarise: "Yeah he's good, yes we're shit but he doesn't stay anywhere long and he doesn't suit our model of giving all the power to the manager. And anyway, he's going to City."
I've never understood this "We've got history" thing that the rags and Liverpool constantly come out with. For all Liverpool's history, they're a mid-table club who've not won the league in nearly 30 years. And both Forest & Villa have won the European Cup but they'll be playing each other in the Championship next season.M
Mitten just had to add this little gem into his piece.
*United stand accused of not going for football’s best manager when he has said he is leaving, for failing to press the case of United, a far bigger club with a more distinguished history, over City, who did not win a trophy between 1976 and 2011.*
But, but, I just couldn't help myself.
Rag, c***!
Marchand undoubtedly has eyes and ears at Barcelona and it is therefore not much of a stretch of the imagination to think that he has connections with the Guardiola camp too.
