You are being naive if you want a seriously pissed off & unmotivated player who doesn't want you, rotting away at your club & lowering the team spirit.

Evidently you haven't seen the carnage caused by trying to keep someone against their will.

It's City policy. If a player wants to leave, we set a REALISTIC valuation & will do whatever it takes to facilitate that. I mean, we've just sold a 4 x PL, 3 x CC, 1 x FA Cup, Ukrainian national team captain for £32m.

We've also just sold a 4 x PL, 3 x CC, 1 x FA Cup Brazil international forward for for £45m

Again we've just sold a 4 x PL, 3 x CC, 1 x FA Cup England international forward for £47.5m

And Brighton want £50m for a 0 trophy 2 cap Spanish international reserve 12 months after buying him for £15m? Get real dude! :-/

Bloom isn't seriously expecting us to pay that, & we're not seriously expecting Bloom to accept £30m, but City are realistic, serious business people & it's best you look at how we conduct our transfers & accept we have respectful principles.

If those principles aren't reciprocated, we're more than prepared to walk away leaving the profiteering club to pick up the pieces with a seriously pissed off & unmotivated player. That's when you'll realise the effect one angry player can have on your whole club.

Carry on with it fella, but don't say we didn't warn you, as we've walked away from way bigger deals than Cucurella.

I don't buy into that seriously pissed off stuff - apart from the model professional Van Dijk! Yer man at Brighton might not be happy but he'll get on with his job. Look at Kane.

If it goes tits up with Brighton and marc-cucurella, then city have only themselves to blame in letting zinchenko leave before a replacement, i will say if city go looking for somebody else then we will get the same response by the selling club in adding £10 million to the asking price,

we should just pay the asking price Brighton want and get it done and start the new season with a proper left back

Exactly
If reports were to be believed then we were not selling Ake without a replacement yet we did Exactly that with Zinchencko.
Why the difference?
I was very disappointed in the Zinchencko transfer.
This all points to a panic January buy the ways it's shaping up.

That’s how most of us down here see it. Meet Bloom’s valuation (none of us know what that is) and you can have him (we know where we are in the food chain, but of course we’ll be disappointed if he goes), otherwise we’ll all just crack on. Cucurella will perform for whoever is paying his wages. It’s really not very complicated.

Get a fucking grip

A multi million/billion pound business doesn’t just do panic buys

We are run by a group of people who know what they are doing

He will do his job but, outside of doing his job he will be the topic of conversation other players will know he's pissed off and this is and will be unsettling for the club. Not an ideal situation for anyone.
Can Brighton manage that? why not, but it is destabilising like it or not.
He will eventually move on as 99% players do and it will inevitably change the perception of Brighton for the good or bad depending on how you see it.

No that's not it . We should buy him but not with 50M. That puts a tight cap on resale value. Barca will eventually come for him . La masia, trained by pep and all. That could be one of the reasons why we don't want to spend too much. Just speculation obviously.

If we can continue to win trophies then his re-sale valuation is pointless, as we`ll have more than made up for it from monies paid for winning said trophies.
