Welcome Ruben Dias!

Buenos Dias, Rueben. Welcome to Manchester!

'Bout time we had another big fuck off poster down by the Irwell!

It's true. It's on the first few pages of this thread somewhere Mike. Amazingly stupid!

You might think it is amazingly stupid to use google to look up this young man and to see a Mirror article written about City 3 hours previously and look out of curiosity but that's what I did. Sorry.

Welcome Big D

That's an omen, and a good 'un. I seem to remember that was how Dave Ewing was welcomed back in '49!

Good morning everyone.

Im very sad to see Ruben leaving from my club, but i truly confident he will be important at Man City.

You will find a very talented defender, with a huge sense of responsibility and with a leadership profile you are looking for since Kompany left.

A great kid and one of our best academy players joining others like Bernardo, Cancelo and Ederson.

Wish you the best and a season full of success.

Regards,

A Benfica fanatic.

I'm certain he will be held in such high regard by the FOCs from CBL3 who well-remember the Ewing-Leivers partnership of yore. I think between Laporte, Dias, 'n Ake we might have the middle sewn up - just the two bits on the outside to go!

The Mirror ran a story in the early hours about 'desparate' City and some sort of 'gaffe' on the website in which fans are invited to ask 'KK' questions about joining CIty. I can't find it myself but the national version of the Liverpool Echo sneeringly suggests this apparent clerical error was caused by Citys desperation to sign KK and have him on the brain or have jumped the gun before he actually signs.
It seems to be a typical cock up by City's hopeless PR set up but it allows the Mirror to avoid making a positive comment about the signing of Dias and straight in with the 'second choice' digs which get repeated in the comments by some twat called Will Perry and other Dipper fans.
United now seem to be quite a nice bunch compared these scouse bastards and their media acolytes.

Could be some club hacking into our website. There's previous among 'em!

Nice to know that we can retain some of our charm from older times. I don't know man, it made me laugh anyway.



Let them play it down. I'm not really bothered about the opinion of a rival fan who is going to be swayed by the way any tabloid reports our business because it's on the pitch that matters.

It's not the rival fan that bothers me its the opinions that neutrals and even some City fans get from the non stop shite. As for in the pitch people are continuously told our 100 points, back to back titles and the treble are nothing compared with a bunch of kick and rush merchants and many fall for it. And our PR people do little - except make cock ups.

"What does it mean to sign for Man City?"

"To play at Man City means you are the top, so this means now I am the top".

Not short of confidence, love it.

I know as much about hacking as you do.
I do it Autumn and Spring in the garden. When do you do yours up in th'hills?

And a handsome chap as well, any better?

Still totally unrelated to football. You rarely have anything positive to say. You occasionally throw in the odd attempt for the sake of authenticity but you’ve fooled no one on here. You’re either a fake or a KFA about football; City: our fans; our history & more importantly OUR PRIDE
