Meanwhile, rags sign someone nobody has heard of and nobody cares.

Prefers it on the right, interesting..

Doku - Haaland - Savinho?

Back to the Sane, Serg & Sterling days

With Phil/KdB/Bernie/Jack pulling the strings.

More exciting times ahead.

He's 20, moving to a new country, new surroundings.

Can we be patient with him...

 

[Vienna_70]

Don't know much about the kid but welcome to our club Sire.
Hopefully he'll get in the 1st team sooner rather than later and not be one of those buys that end up doing nothing here and ends up joining another club in a couple of years

Considering he’s been given a five-year contract, I’m inclined to trust Pep and Txiki on this.

Gabriel didn’t do too badly for us.

 

[Vienna_70]

Savio is his nickname.

Isn’t it the other way around?

From what little Portuguese I know, I think Savinho means "Little Savio".

and Sky sports news lead with it every hour with numerous quotes from Utd staff inc the tea lady, then Celtic get a mention for signing Kasper Schmeichel. Nothing about City, typical of Sky.

Good to see sky sports news give it all of 20 seconds airtime, this after walking themselves something stupid over yoyo or whatever the fuck his name is.
Standard from the rag sympathisers.

I don't know mate, I presumed it was just the nickname he'd been given.

I meant people in general. My Sky apps and city one announced us within minutes.

I’ve heard no rags talking about this kid at all. Their signings now are just as if Newcastle signed someone.

Aside though, that’s funny how Kasper continues to follow Joe’s career. Good move for him though.
