I'm sure Pep and Txiki have other targets. These guys are the best at what they do. But I won't ever believe the theory that every player that Pep wants will sign for City and that is because players have personalities, dreams and their own ambitions. There are a lot of things at work here; more than just the City project, Pep and money. Players have other driving factors and motivations too.

Then what is this?Nobody said that.
Don't believe the shit you see on twitter by complete nomark pillocks. If city want him, they will get him. Simple. If we don't get him its because we didn't want him.

I suspect he's playing all the clubs against each other for the best possible deal, done to us last week, will be done to Chelsea next.

If he is off to the dippers it'll be a bit of a loss as he's already acclimatised to the Prem etc.
Just hope the thread doesn't become 'a didn't want him anyway' thread.

Come on Txiki, don't let me down now.
Nah, it's done to lpool. When Macca (dipper itk) says it's done, it's done.I suspect he's playing all the clubs against each other for the best possible deal, done to us last week, will be done to Chelsea next.

Not a guaranteed stater here like he would be at Liverpool. Guess that made a massive difference
Always rated Maldini jnr the higher of the two as imo he was simultaneously the best right back, left back and centre half in the world and kept it up into his forties, but both were absolutely amazing.
Both legends and arguably in the best teams ever. But Baresi was majestic, not that Maldini was far behind. Just looked, they played 196 games at centre half together and conceded 23 goals. Amazing stat.
Baresi was named Serie A player of the 20th century, hard to disagree with that really!

He would of been, Kompany will get an injury and van dijk would be playing every game. Great signing for Liverpool, turn them into title challengers I think. I rate him that highly.

I agree, but in this instance we've not got an awful lot to point us in this direction anyway. The Sunday People is a trap door in the canoe of British media and Sam Lee was unconvinced we'd made any moves for him.
Yes, players are different, but you can't tell me one good reason Virgil Van Dijk has to move to Liverpool over even Chelsea, let alone to us. Even if he did have different aspirations, an extra £20,000 a week can help put life back into perspective.
Then what is this?
That's not what you said. He's talking about him, Van Dijk, going to the dippers.
You accused people here of saying EVERY target we don't get we obviously didn't want.
That's different.
