Welcome Savinho | Signs for £21m on a 5 year deal

[ninjamonkey]

Difference is everyone in the world knows who Haaland is. It was a coup.

Nobody knows who this kid is. I can’t see a load of kids begging mum and dad to go and see Savinho introduced.

Okay but if parents ask their kids if they want to go see city's new signing at the ground this weekend, some may say no because he's not haaland but even if just a few hundred say yeah, what's the harm in it? It's a free event during the summer holidays, fair play to city I say.

Might be wishful thinking, but it'd be good if we could add another signing to the event late on...

Meanwhile his mate has 50k seeing him in Madrid. We aren’t that nation to do that. Infact, are we the only club who attempts it?

There was a shirt signing event for Samaras…

Haha. At the time I was well excited about him. Thus, pushing that event into second.
This one on Sunday celebrating a first season sub who doesn’t speak English still tops my list.

So what? He'll be settling in, a little unveiling to a modest crowd will be a nice easy introduction for him and those that do go will be happy to see a new signing and the parents taking their kids get a free couple of hours entertainment out of it.

Theres zero reason to moan about this. Sounds like you're bothered about the optics on social media from the desperate and obsessed few who are sat at home watching if theres a relatively small crowd.

We've got Savinho, We've got Savinho!

Quite possibly the most pointless event we’ve ever put on.

Oh I don't know, there were 8 of them in early 2007 that were much more a waste of time from memory.

I don't know why people decide these things are a waste of time when it's 100% not aimed at us older fans. Have you all forgotten how much fun childhood was?

O dear

It’s going to be a bloodbath on social media and on X.

Remember Newcastle opening up St James Park for free when they announced the Michael Owen signing

Why the fuck would we even consider doing it? Genuinely cant imagine more than 100 people turning up for some shite PR stunt like this. Social media will have a field day and we will deserve all the flack we get. PR own goal yet again.
