How about this for a potential way out?

City (well ADUG) pay his loyalty bonus (or preferably just a fair chunk of it). But we don't pay it to Sammy. We pay it to UNICEF or one of the African charities that he favours.

City get player. Player doesn't look quite as greedy. Charity benefits and ADUG/City are immediately linked with something worthwhile in the midst of that obscene sea of cash.

We say we want to make him a focal point for Cameroon/ Africa already anyway and that would be a hell of an opening gambit. It could even tie in with the anniversary of MVF's death

Brownie points all round.

Chicken balti pie ?

This analysis is the one ...


However ...the way tha Et' responds to these options remains hard to call...

this a spikey, difficult kind of character...


I really wouldn't want to call this one ATM...

..which does not mean that we're doomed, merely that this is genuinely uncallable (IMO) in a way the the Kaka deal wasn't (or at least differently)

Just have to wait for 10 am tomoz...

But bottom line ..

useful though he would be .. we can live without this guy ...it's not the end of the world if he doen't but would be a major coup if we could.

Crap, I'm playing 5-a-side then :(

He wants the money, so why would he want it to be transferred to Unicef. He is a typical african greedy bastard. Let's move on. Forlan!!!

What a stupid comment!

Re: Samuel Eto'o [merged]

I think the wording on the last post there came across as rascist..although I think this was unintentional by Balti.

Why is it?
Adebayor? Essien? Drogba? Yaya Toure. They have all come from nothing, from chicken farms. Therefore alot of them are hungry to get the big wages.

Hopefully Eto'o doesn't read this.

That statement and the 'monkey man' phrase earlier.
 
Re: Samuel Eto'o [merged]

whats happened here in my eyes is eto is fleecing barca,everything on this deal is agreed, someone is coming the comical.
if eto can change the terms of the deal then so can we, i say let US pull out, lets leave him high and dry, no city, and in effect no barca, the fans there will crucify him.

he'll back down in a split second.

Go back to the 19th century you muppet. Not all Africans are the same.

It isn't a racist comment, but alot of the african players in football are greedy, like i said it's because they have come from nothing. They want to make a big earning to look after their poor family and relatives. We give Eto'o 300k a week, do you think he will reject because i don't.

City should make a big statement saying "Fuck off Eto'o you fucking time waster, Man City no longer wants you"
