Im laughing at the fickleness of some fans on here. Pep - we are not buying this window - Daily Star know we have offered = Flappers believing the DSDoes it say if they have stopped laughing yet ?
I'm sure we will have a fee in mind that we believe the player is worth. That doesnt mean it should be the opening bid though.
I believe the poster I replied to was saying something to the effect of " just pay whatever the selling club wants ".
Are you advocating a similar stance ?
I'm not saying pay what the sellling club wants but realistically if the selling club says £75-80m and we offer £45m then we might as well stop wasting our own time and the selling clubs time. £45m is way off the mark, the selling club know the players is in demand and knows his value in the current market & what will happen is Utd, PSG or some other club will come in with a more realistic offer much closer to or matching the selling clubs askng price, offer the player bigger wages and get the deal over line quickly, while we're posturing. If we piss about and take our time, we leave the door open for other clubs. Is Somebody trying to justify their job at City or are we really trying to sign the player?
If true, the £45m offer is, in todays market; unrealistic, laughable and an embaressement to City. Bit of common sense needs to prevail.
Have you been on the Brexit negotiating team? This is the same bloke they paid €8M for in the summer and, somehow, he’s now ten times the player he was then? We should just offer €75M because “Utd might get him”. I can only guess how gutted you were when Fred and Sanchez signed for them and that’s not turned out too badly, has it?I'm not saying pay what the sellling club wants but realistically if the selling club says £75-80m and we offer £45m then we might as well stop wasting our own time and the selling clubs time. £45m is way off the mark, the selling club know the players is in demand and knows his value in the current market & what will happen is Utd, PSG or some other club will come in with a more realistic offer much closer to or matching the selling clubs askng price, offer the player bigger wages and get the deal over line quickly, while we're posturing.

If the interest is mutual and the deal makes sense to our club,then it will get done at the price that suits.If you,and others,haven't yet realised that we have the very best people running our club,then you never will.I'm not saying pay what the sellling club wants but realistically if the selling club says £75-80m and we offer £45m then we might as well stop wasting our own time and the selling clubs time. £45m is way off the mark, the selling club know the players is in demand and knows his value in the current market & what will happen is Utd, PSG or some other club will come in with a more realistic offer much closer to or matching the selling clubs askng price, offer the player bigger wages and get the deal over line quickly, while we're posturing.

MEN reporting we've had bid rejected, let's not piss about, pay it and get him in early

Pay the money not mess about with 3 attempts to finally get to near the fee set by the seller.
If you want then bloody pay it otherwise someone will & that will be 1 more player missed.
But I expect that to happen then you no who will pop up with
We have a price but the player wanted so & so
We never had a chance to sign him blah blah blah.
Just get the transfer done
Think what you want pal, I'm blue blood all the way mate.And you are like a broken fucking record with no credibility whatsoever. Another knownowt gobbing off - very rag/dipper like in your approach.
I don't expect you to be the DOF at City anytime soon - thankfully.
