This needs to be locked to the top of the forum to prevent pages upon pages of hypothetical fee discussions that go in circlesWhats frustrating is people like you who have no idea as to how transfers,bids,offers,payment structure,bonuses to selling club,bluffs,double bluffs,media shite,agent fees and the likes go on in any protracted discussions.
This isn`t 1960/70/80s when a Chairman takes a fucking big brown envelope with him to his counterpart.
Will he be ours by tomorrow ? Certainly.Was it worth the wait? Yes.Has it harmed our Club ? Certainly not.Will this type of long protracted business be likely again? Fucking definitely.
Some people are very short on patience.
I wish one of them would start a thread to discuss our (rumoured in the press) transfer negotiating strategies and leave the rest of us to enjoy the potential signing threads.Seriously, you and pudge flapped about this signing not happening and now that it is you're flapping it's too much money.
1. It's not your money.
2. City have had a really frugal window, with 14m for Nolito and 20m for Gundogan, both world class players.
3. Pep Guardiola thinks Sane is worth it.
Now go be a negative nancy elsewhere.
Well that definitely makes this deal look cheap to me.£32M which is this year's £40M
This.Stop moaning about the size of the fee. Couldn't give a shit.
Would anyone pay 44 mil for him now???But you are wrong. We dont over pay as such. We pay the rate 12 months ahead of inflation.
We did it with Raheem, bought him a year before the league saw the silly money come in. had we left it until this year, any team could pay 44 mil for him.
In the current market, probably.Would anyone pay 44 mil for him now???
