you picked a team with no first team players under the heading of "no first team players there ,who do we have to pick" i a bit confused(which isnt hard admittedly)

Yeah I post stuff even I don't understand when reading it back

Sits back with a brew knowing that nobody knows anything about where bidding is at.

How can you not be concerned about which lever Txiki will pull next?

That’s exactly what we’ve done though… We bid £50m knowing he just had a £45m release clause in his contract, they said no we want £60 so we met them half way. That’s where we stand, if they refuse then we move on. Yet you’re moaning about us doing exactly what you say we should be doing… City can’t win here.
It’s not a new concept City have just invented, every club asked a valuation and bids lower in the hope to save some money. The same way the selling club increase their demand showing they’ll get knocked down. It’s just how football works, bar Chelsea who are sweeping in and asking a valuation “How much?” “£60m” “hmmm… we’ll not pay a penny less than £120m” “ok go on then you twisted our arm”.
As I say we made it clear our valuation knowing they've inflated the price, either a deal is done or it’s not.
I can tell you now though, no way Doku or any other new signing after him plays until Pep is back and looked at them himself. They’ll be on the bench but they’ll not play.

FFS, give it a rest. I'm not moaning. I'm discussing it. I'm allowed an opinion. That's what a forum is for. You need to reread your posts before criticizing others. But I'll take your posts as gospel. ;-)

We have 13 senior outfield players available. With only 2 injuries.

Is that based on Doku being a senior player, but Palmer not being?

Which one is older?

Did the club ask him to refuse to train?

If he wants to gamble a week's wages on a potential move of a lifetime, call in sick with a headache, or do whatever he wants with his life, how is that a bad look for the club?

This. It‘s mad that people have written a player off because he hasn’t trained for a few days.

Doku literally says that he’s not trained for 4 days and he’s not been written off, but it’s the same people that moan about Sky’s rhetoric that are up in arms because Nunes has been reported as going on strike. On Sky.

So Damien10 said there was progress but Simon Jones said we were walking. Is that the gist of it?

pretty much.

None of that is my point really. Bidding once and then just not going in again would be odd.

Not if you flip your logic and realise City had a certain valuation of Rice that was less than West Ham we’re willing to accept. That or Rice told us he preferred Arsenal.

Either way, we were never going to bid again.
