Media Thread - 2021/22

What puzzles me is why are so many of our players linked with them ? City are clearly a better Club on all fronts, from the team to the way the club is run. I really dont see the attraction of barca.

I can understand it to an extent with the Spanish guys, but this scattergun mentioning of random decent players is annoying.

Gossip mate, it's bs

It doesn't make sense. He has suffered a bad injury and is some way from fitness. Why would he want a tfr now and why would a club bid for him at the mo? Agent flying a kite?

Ragnick must be the second coming, obviously after Maureen. The knicker wetting from the media over his appointment is embarrassing but not at all surprising, his CV isn't really that impressive, and if he was top notch would he really be working for a Russian side

Never heard of this guy. He's not even got a work permit yet and here are the media already asking every other manager about him in yesterday's press conferences. Media hype bandwagon well and truly churning away for the Rags. As usual, at the same time unsubstantiated reports about players and Pep wanting out of City. 'Twas ever thus.

Barcelona try to sign the players who can’t get in our team. This shows you how the football landscape has changed.

If City are entertaining Barcelona in regards to any of our players you can be sure that it's going to be beneficial to the club somewhere down the line.
The weirdos who keep bleating that we bend over for them and that our Spanish contingent dont have our best interests at heart should be locked in a padded room.

So true. Amazing to contemplate such a situation

Agreed. I think there would be political capital in having Barca in our financial debt.

….other than the sunshine, beaches and fucking brilliant nightlife there’s nothing to attract a young wealthy footballer.
You’re right!

Torres has struggled a bit with the physicality of the PL. I think he is a very talented player who will flourish in Spanish football so we need to hold out for a decent offer. It is hard to see where Barca will get the money from.

You are spot on there Gundo.
I just ask my brush the same question and it also said Thiago.
Micah has bought into the agenda I’m afraid.

I am afraid the expression 'daft as a brush' fits Micah the pundit better than we expected.
