Rolling Specubollox Thread

[Buzz Lightyear]

Time is marching on and it’s making me nervous. 🙄

I like what we hear ( nothing but specubollux from the press) it may be we had no intention of letting them see what the left hand is doing by showing them the right. The report that senior officials were in Spain reportedly negotiating Messi but in truth were running the numbers with Athletico, but that again is only a guess

We still have the time to snare a new CB, we will get someone better than Stones.

This one might be a good option, but very expensive.

It would seem that the signing of Ake has not impressed too many City fans nor the powers that be who are still hunting for that World Class CB and City being reluctant to fork out big money for an aged CB in Koolitbaby... I can only think that we intend to get money for Garcia who is content to stay at City until his contract runs out

Ake may have come from a relegated club but I reckon he will do fine for us. He is good on the ball and versatile.

I like him a lot, and I think he wants to prove his doubters wrong.

With PSG allegedly now in for KK I don't think Trixi will engage in a bidding dual for a 29 yr old CB. So this link identifies yet another CB we have an eye on.

Napoli wants us back at the table because he now has another club bidding and we are not falling for the agreement only for the tosser to sell to PSG anyway, so he go go FHS strickly HS is one word.

Let's snap him up, and still go in for KK with a stronger hand to play.

 

[johnkelv]

This link suggests we have had a bid rejected, so just maybe we will snare a new CB during this window

We aren't going anywhere this season without some signings. Our transfer policy has been criminal.

Hope the fee can be sorted. Good player.
Jules Kounde has reached an agreement with #ManCity over a 5-year contract.

Sevilla ask for €70m, and
@mancity
have offered €60m - but the operation should be successful.

Sounds like someone who can improve under Pep, rather than pay over the odds for a player in his prime

Send him on his way. As soon as he wouldn't sign a contract, I would have started peddling him. Plus, I don't rate as highly as some.

I get the feeling that everyone wont pay a cent what our players are worth but want top book on the players we want

We have no one to blame for that but ourselves. We have been too soft in negotiations.

We won't match asking prices, simple as that.

 

[johnkelv]

This article appears to confirm we have had our opening bid snubbed, I remain of the view that Trixi will find us a new CB, but not at any price.
