Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

[Ric]

Hope it's not as protracted as dealing with Wolfsburg...

Ha, not sure I could face another saga like that either.

Anything fresh on Laporte ric?

Haha I love that some guy is complaining because "all his goals are tap ins". In a well-functioning team, practically every goal from a striker should be a tap-in. That's their fucking job. Our problem last season was always relying on a worldie goal from miles out, a moment of random brilliance. We needed someone to be there to score 20+ tap ins. It's far more repeatable and reliable.

This is my favourite tap in of his.

Lets hope these talks go alot easier....Kev transfer fee should give us a solid point at which to start talks....

I wonder what comes out of Dortmund today. I should think journalists at their end will be asking questions. What will they say? That will give us clues as to where we are. Could well be a he's not for sale. I am sure something similar happened with Aubameyang earlier this Summer where it was reported his agents were in talks with a club, and then Dortmund said there was nothing doing.

Edit: It was Real Madrid and the fee was supposedly £70m.

Even if they are willing to do business, I'll be very surprised if they don't deny the rumours.

do we have a bluemooner on the ground at the airport?? ;-)

 

[hihosilva]

Song for Aubameyang anyone?

Those reports are way off. For a start the last time a fee was mentioned it was £70m and I doubt Dortmund are going to want to sell their leading striker unless City pay stupid money.

Aubameyang is probably on holiday in Dubai or Ibiza, not back home in Dortmund, so it's unlikely he'd be coming from Dusseldorf anyway.

Maybe it's someone from Dortmund, but wouldn't we send people there instead, or even meet in City's London offices.

The reports were €70m, which is £58m

Was just about to say the same.

Bay city rollers nailed on but reminds me of them raggy cnuts in the seventies tartan scarfs

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

75 million euros is 58. 70 is 55

 

[RandomJ]

So is he likely to be played out wide on the right if we sign him? I doubt either he or Aguero would be happy rotating.

I was referring to the Real Madrid "talks" . Whether they were real I don't know, but they were reported earlier this year.

Do you think Dortmund would let the Bundesliga player of the Year and centre forward go for less than what City paid for De Bruyne having just sold Gundogan.

As I have said earlier in this topic the same thing happened earlier this year. It was reported that Aubameyang would go to Real Madrid and the fee that was reported was £70m (90m Euros). His club later denied it.

So these British press reports now are just copy and paste jobs, out of date, and unreliable. The whole story is unreliable if you ask me because this has all happened before.
