Unbelievable that we've not been able to sell a single player.

 

[avoidconfusion]

We have got to be the absolute worst club when it comes to selling players

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Unbelievable that we've not been able to sell a single player.

Why is it?

We have to accept the consequences of paying good - not great - footballers high wages.

Some of the players we are trying to offload must be earning over six figures each week.

 

[decmancity]

Struggle to think of a club in world football that struggles to sell players more than we do. Set a bad precedent with these loan deals to italian clubs, and everyone knows if they just hold out beyond our bluster we eventually cave and give in to their preferred terms. If nobody wants to pay a real fee, I hope we keep bony, mangala and Nasri and tell their agents to arrange permanent deals only. If nobody comes in with them they stay till the next window and then same deal.

Meanwhile we pay out over 300k a week in wages for people who we don't want.

Tiki is no fool, nor are Pep or Khaldoon. We will get the right deals.

Anybody heard anything about Zuculini?

 

[Hart of the Matter]

I expect the majority of these to be done on deadline day so they can be done quietly in the noise of deadline day.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Unbelievable that we've not been able to sell a single player.

It's not really unbelievable. We are charged a 'City premium' on players we buy, so they are difficult to shift on at a price acceptable to us, and clubs play on it by wanting them for next to nowt

We could do with Mancini taking over at a Chinese club. Suddenly he'll be able to afford his old galactico's. £40 for Yaya , £60 for Nasri. Would make a nice change. Cant remember the last time we got a decent price for a player. Probably SWP to chelsea !

 

[bumbleblue]

We got good prices for Rodwell and Negredo. We'll be ok I think as long as we shift a couple before deadline day. With so many out of contract next summer that will be the wage bill sorted for the future .
