And they really think they still have some "big club pull" in the transfer market, when they are constantly overpaying for players.

£60m for mason mount!!!….let that sink in

They are celebrating because the name was linked with Madrid. Bet most of them didn't even know who the fuck he was a month ago.

I read that this kid’s contract expires next year, and yet there they are overpaying like the proper gorps they are.

Looks to me like Lyon have pushed him to make this move instead of losing him for nothing next season, and the lure of big wages and a fat signing on fee were too much for his family to turn down

Lille

They certainly shop at the ugly shop, they must be the most hideous squad of players ever assembled

Let's Be Asking Questions About Spending, Didnt they fail the last round of FFP or whatever the new system is
The last reported balance sheets showed losses, Even Jim said in an interview last season that failing to get Champions League Football would be major damage to new signings in the summer,

So £70million for Yoro and £45 million for Joshua Zirkzee so far ???

 

[N1985]

100 million plus on unproven shite will probably be close to 200 when they've finished.

Stadium falling down, training ground not fit for purpose, manager is crap and the rest of the squad they have are nowhere near good enough.

They're fucked, proper fucked.

And no FA Cup win can fucking hide that.

 

[ManCitizens.]

2 brilliant signings from them so far, and Ugarte on the way next. Still Ten Bob as manager, but cant deny they arent fucking about this window

Really? A youth prospect and a bang average striker for 100m are not two brilliant signings

Not fucked enough for me mate, they still exist.

Aren’t they paying there fees in instalments?

The sort of action you’d expect from a promoted team.

And a player not good enough for PSG (Ugarte).
