Roberto Firmino

[Danamy]

Shane has spoken, done deal.

Now i know where you get your info from i will never question it again, our Shane is bulletproof

Yeah I think he is ours. City playing their cards close to the vest is not strange. I expect we want to nail down all (or most) of our business before letting anything out. Simply no good reason to announce this now.

The fact of the identify of Firmino's club has not been revealed proves more to me it's City he's joining due to their ways of approach.

One of these is Shane.

Wasn't it last year they were releasing the contract extensions one a day, maybe they want a week of signings. Imagine how everyone would feel with us signing a different player every day for a week.

 

[hgblue]

I should imagine that is the last thing they would do.
They may well cut off negotiations with City but they are hardly going to tell them who he is negotiating with. NCDs and the like would presumably be in place

Point taken. Maybe you're right and he's going to Liverpool and they don't want us to know because it would weaken their hand in negotiations for Sterling. Doesn't quite ring true to me though.

been on ragcafe and they're extremely confident hes there player would love him to join us aha :)

Or he may be coming here and we don't want everyone to know our business.

Someone has gone on and let Shane know how "popular" he is here. He says he doesn't post here because he already gets enough abuse on Twitter.

Who the hell is Shane ?

Better than being called a rag I guess.

I asked him to pop in and say hi.

[TonyM]

We are not linked to him so therefore he is signing this week? What weird logic exists in the transfer window world. :-)

 

[Seosa]

Shane?

@SunMartinB: On Roberto Firmino #mcfc have watched him but he's not one of main targets at this stage. So not a Firm no - but a probablyno.

Perhaps later then haha

Plan B (or C) springs to mind with this one.

 

[thereWasATime]

IMO this is a done deal with presser this Friday, we are just waiting for Sterling fees to be agreed before announcing.

Friday really doesn't suit as I'm early shift.

Raphael Honigsten just tweeted that TSG happy to sell for €30m and Firmino's agent is in the process of looking for a buyer. Also added (his own opinion) that he's a great player but inconsistent and that he doesn't see him as top 4 material yet.

I beg to differ with the second part but fair enough.
