Cheesman is just taking a punt imo, like I believe he did with the CAS verdict. The people handling this for City will be our very top boys, waaay above the pay grade of any contacts he might still have at the club.
He is already covering his backside with his follow up about ‘negotiations ongoing’ which is almost certainly bullshit. I sincerely doubt any meaningful talks have even started yet.
Exactly this!
I couldn’t believe the amount of people who gave him credit over that cas itk fluke ...
“negotiations continue” is covering his backside and as far away from truth as possible ... even Barca and Messi aren’t negotiating yet, let alone Barca and City!
