And what do you consider his correct position to be, especially as Pep will introduce a high intensity game plan to what has been a lacklustre squad last season?
They have a mega rich owner now so they can pay up
I'm thinking that is how it's likely to pan out too. He wants out but he knows Inter won't pay what he's on now and so he's making noises that he's prepared to stay if Pep should want him, which isn't likely. Translation: He hangs around festering and like a bad smell unless City take the drastic action of having to pay him to go.I dint think someone on his wage and waistline on 200k plus per week at age 34 is worth much Karen. Think his agent will be looking for us to pay the difference in his wages.
Giving him away on a free wouldn't be bad business at all. He's 34 years old, of very little use to us now, a huge drain on our wage bill and everybody knows it. We've had more than our money's worth out of him.
Maybe Maureen wants him. Bragging rights and all that.Kept his house on for another year.
