Yeah, I know there's lots of paranoia and propaganda (like a mad Thomas Pynchon novel) but then there are some journos who seem to get legitimate info. . .

It's like I was saying earlier, we are truly living Guy DeBord's Society of the Spectacle. Even moreso because I, and I suppose many others my age, don't actually view the gossip/news in the papers, but through Twitter/online. So we're even further removed.

We're the postmodern simulacra of representation. We consume through representation of representation of representation.

It's all a bit mad.

I don't remember Debord saying it's all a bit mad .....? :)
 
Sterling will be a City player regardless if you ask me.

I really would be a little surprised if Chelsea paid 50m on him, which is what Liverpool WILL get for him if he is to go this summer in my opinion.

Had our HG quota been full I still think we would have chased him but not at 50m, only out of absolute need for English players are we going to pay the full whack price for Raheem.

Chelsea look to be chasing Griezmann and if that happens where does Sterling play?

The journalists that get legitimate info will get it after you've known as much from reading things on here. It's much better to completely ignore the media.

Did he return home early? I haven't heard that his hols were cut short or anything.

Hi Pam, The media gave the impression that he returned home (via private jet) as City's 3rd (and final bid) was just about to go in...Your right tho....only Sterling knows if he came home early or had always planned to come home Saturday.....thanks

Take everything with a pinch of salt. They'll do anything to sell papers. It's boring that only City are interested from a headlines point of view. We're not a very exciting club in the transfer market as we go about our business quietly and don't reveal things to the press. Liverpool have leaked news to the media to suit their own agenda. They've now signed a new player and we're seeing things like "Sterling hasn't got a guaranteed spot in the starting 11". That's all bollocks but softens the blow when he does move on. It suits their agenda and we won't care so long as we get the player for a fee we are happy with. The Chelsea link was never there, it was completely fabricated to sell the story. Much in the way that you see terms like "braced for a bid" which basically means nothing has happened but something might...

Just read things on here and await any information Tolmie may provide - he cuts out the bullshit as he knows how these things work and specifically what City's take on things is.

Same as every other summer. Fun and games all the way. If I had a quid for every bullshit hijack story they write...
 
This sums it up (from Football Talk front page). They fucking make it up as they go along, the twats.
