Why are people comparing a county to a city? That seems dumb.
You’re losing it @Lennon7 , the debate was about players selecting clubs for nice cities, I simply said that Cheshire is a lovely place to live.He was just comparing where he currently lives to Cheshire as you were describing Cheshire as a private paradise. You on the blob mate?
I didn't bother reading the rest. He made a valid point about places to live and you called him a weirdo.You’re losing it mate, the debate was about players selecting clubs for nice cities, I simply said that Cheshire is a lovely place.
No idea where the weird ”every 19 year old is the World is the same and wants to live in the dam over Cheshire” rant came from.
Not anymore, bought a new place in Amsterdam 2 months ago in the museum area.He lives in Abcoude. With his parents.
Spent a fair bit of time in Hale some years ago and saw plenty of footballers and zero paparazzi. Don't think footballers get stalked by paparazzi in Manchester all that much either.Cheshire is not even vaguely comparable to Amsterdam. In the latter you can live in one of the coolest Cities on the planet, cycle and walk around, get on the water, be among people without paparazzi stalking you. It’s far more private than Cheshire for that fact alone.
No 19 year old earning £100k a week is going to get excited over leaving Amsterdam to go to Cheshire.
He replied to my post ranting on about how Amsterdam was better than Cheshire, which was I point I never made. I’ll repeat, I simply said Cheshire is a lovely place to live.I didn't bother reading the rest. He made a valid point about places to live and you called him a weirdo.
So ”valid” is was not, weird it was.Cheshire is not even vaguely comparable to Amsterdam.
He currently lives there. Cheshire is not an upgrade. Not by any metric. And yes, I’m comparing the whole county to a City.Why the fexk are you talking about Amsterdam you weirdo?
He replied to my post ranting on about how Amsterdam was better than Cheshire, which was I point I never made. I’ll repeat, I simply said Cheshire is a lovely place to live.
I mean, he started his post with a response to something I didn’t even say man:
So ”valid” is was not, weird it was.
On a side note it’s also weird to think everyone would prefer one place over another, absolutely bizarre in fact and stinks of a closed World view from someone who has barely travelled.

Have you ever travelled man?Manchester is cool, trendy and pretty pleasant. But it’s still in England with all its pitfalls. Aside from London, no spot in England is going to be a factor in a move from the likes of Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon and so many other places.
Wanna do an online bet on that?Would bet something substantial on me having travelled more extensively than you have too.
PM me. Weirdo (jk)
Dis gon’ be gudWanna do an online bet on that?
PM me, I’m from the UK, spent 6 years travelling non-stop in my 20’s and have lived in Hong Kong, NZ, Aus, France, Norway, Sweden so this should be fun.
Or you could stop embarrassing yourself and just admit that yes, people do have differing opinions than you on where is cool to move and live?
Cities will take me too long. Countries.Dis gon’ be gud
You’re going to have to specify criteria. Are you listing countries? Towns and cities? Just cities? Cities and countries?
I went to school there. Quite a lot of United and City players lived around there in the 70s. I haven't been back there in decades and I probably wouldn't recognize the place, but it used to be a very well-to-do area.Spent a fair bit of time in Hale some years ago and saw plenty of footballers and zero paparazzi.

It probably about 10 years since I was there a lot around Hale and Hale Barns. You'd see a handful of football players from all North West clubs every time you were in the centre. No one was getting harassed by paps or the public.I went to school there. Quite a lot of United and City players lived around there in the 70s.

That’s the internets. I still remember a bloke having a go at me, calling me all sorts, all because I was referring to a different definition of the international phonetic alphabet than he wasCities will take me too long. Countries.
I have to say, this really escalated quickly from me making a simple post saying that Cheshire’s a lovely place to live.
The aggression on here
Yeh especially when it’s likely that he’ll (hypothetically) be bought after AWB, meaning that his purchase would take our transfer spending over 100 million thereby negating the ESPN storyI doubt De ligt will give Manchester United a second thought when he hears the talk that United is going to limit its budget for buying players to 100 million pounds. Talk about a way to turn off high quality players.
See espn.
Well if we are paying £75m for him he will know it bollocks won't he.I doubt De ligt will give Manchester United a second thought when he hears the talk that United is going to limit its budget for buying players to 100 million pounds. Talk about a way to turn off high quality players.
See espn.
Haha, sounds about right!That’s the internets. I still remember a bloke having a go at me, calling me all sorts, all because I was referring to a different definition of the international phonetic alphabet than he was

Most likely... I doubt the club will be divulging our budgets/finances to ESPN.I doubt De ligt will give Manchester United a second thought when he hears the talk that United is going to limit its budget for buying players to 100 million pounds. Talk about a way to turn off high quality players.
See espn.
The same people are saying we're in for about 20 players. Believe nothing until it happens.I doubt De ligt will give Manchester United a second thought when he hears the talk that United is going to limit its budget for buying players to 100 million pounds. Talk about a way to turn off high quality players.

It's more about what song he's singing.Jesus Christ ! ,he's out of control.
It's very possible the club have briefed this to counter other clubs taking the piss with prices, every player whose had a half decent season is £70m, it's getting stupid.I doubt De ligt will give Manchester United a second thought when he hears the talk that United is going to limit its budget for buying players to 100 million pounds.

Hell yeah. All aboard!I like to daydream that we have a deal in place for AWB, MDL and Fernandes and we are going to announce/present all 3, on the same day as some sort massive statement of intent.
The only reason it's taking so long, is to make sure all 3 can be available at the same time for medicals, contract signings etc.
I could be right, couldn't I?
He is no Pat Evra, that is for sure. :-)Tweet

Aye aye Captain!Hell yeah. All aboard!
Because they dont have that many fans in the city to harass him. When he will get that?Found this interview with one of Pep minions
https://www.manchestereveningnews.c.../pep-guardiola-city-loves-manchester-14952018
He says that they don't harassed here unlike in Spain
“It's a lot different. For Pep in Barcelona it's not easy for him to walk the streets, or go to the cinema. So many people are like 'Pep! Pep!
“In Manchester like Munich, people respect you and ask for photos and autographs only if you have time.”
Some people do have it all. Can hardly imagine a better place to live.Not anymore, bought a new place in Amsterdam 2 months ago in the museum area.
I‘m on my way from Malmo to Copenhagen right now. From there I’ll fly to Düsseldorf and then I’ll take the train to Cologne. I’ve won the thread.can people stop derailing this with talk of De Ligt so we can focus on the e-fight over who has travelled the most
Used to see Tommy Doc in the Bulls Head in Hale Barns quite a bit and a couple of other players. I used to have a pint in the Cheshire Midland or the Railway, where you could get a decent pint of Robinsons, which was my favourite ale at the time.It probably about 10 years since I was there a lot around Hale and Hale Barns. You'd see a handful of football players from all North West clubs every time you were in the centre. No one was getting harassed by paps or the public.
I'm sure there was player who said Manchester was a good place to be a footballer because you didn't get harrassed by anyone (might have been RVN). I think in Italy its quite bad and they often live in gated communities.
