Yes. Brighton only increased the fee so high once those twats started sniffing around because they wanted a bidding war. If we just quietly got on with business and offered them closer to their expectations from the beginning we may have been able to negotiate a reasonable deal to strengthen a position we desperately need.

How the fuck do you know that?

Silly price for a player with one decent season of premiership football, one international cap and no champions league experience.

City have done well to walk away from this and not get taken for mugs like the chavs have been.

Say what you like about ability but Walker, Cancelo even Mendy were much more established before we paid large sums for them.

 

[Roachy]

We’ll see. The market doesn’t seem to be getting cheaper.

I think if we sign a left back they will be cheaper.

 

[johnnytapia]

I think if we sign a left back they will be cheaper.

And hopefully be as good

How the fuck do you know that?

I don’t know, but i certainly think if we were the only club interested Brighton wouldn’t have had such a strong hand regarding the fee. But we bid way too low so they touted him around didn’t they.

 

[TheBlueCat]

Fucking chav cunts. They can fuck off.
We needed him. Shouldn’t have pissed about offering such a low opening amount, I bet we could have got him for about £40m plus McAtee on loan or something.

So now we have a month to find a full back who won’t weaken us when Walker or Cancelo miss games.

We don’t NEED him, grow up or grow a pair. Christ on a bike! Who fucking cares about a bang average player with one international cap and one season in the premiership? Don’t you remember how shit he was when we played them?

 

[citytill1die84]

He'd have been our 3rd highest transfer fee.

No wonder we walked.

Lmao. Why didn’t you let Txiki know then?
Brighton always said it was £50m PLUS.

 

[mscenterh750]

We’ve dodged a bullet there. Well played tiki and glad you didn’t let them bend us over, like they have the chavs.

No, I don’t remember at all, but City obviously thought he was decent. We do need a good full back because two isn’t enough. I fucking hate rivals gazumping us. Hopefully he turns out as shit as you imply now.
