$10mil and I fecked it up!
So Man City are part of this Barcelona scandal too?
Silva is worth twice that.

But lewa was in his last year. I don’t think Bernardo is.Makes the fee Bayern got for Lewandowski look even better.
He probably is the tweets thread but they're all allowed in here.No, he doesn't.
Not sure who this Gerard Romero chap is, but he's worth adding to the banned list of known BS merchants.
Busquets, Pedri, Gavi
Rabiot’s arrival would not signal the end of United’s bid for Frenkie de Jong, but as the situation with Barcelona drags on Ten Hag has sanctioned the signing of an alternative midfielder.
Exactly and Lewandowski is 34 while Silva only turns 28.But lewa was in his last year. I don’t think Bernardo is.
I agree, just worried with the little optimism part. I feel that we wouldn't wait this long if it was just a little optimism.I'm perfectly fine with us not signing anyone until 13th August has passed, on the chance that FDJ could happen. The other players should be fine waiting that long, too.
I've never understood why everyone just ignores the fact that Chelsea has CL football and won it recently. De Jong is 25 years old, not 19. It's safe to assume he wants the chance to win trophies now, and not be part of a rebuild.
Why do they get a €30m discount?
It's deferred, not a discountWhy do they get a €30m discour
In a perfect world we would bring in all 3.I genuinely think SMS is instead of FDJ. Rabiot will be signed either way because he compliments both (whether people think he's any good or not is a different matter).
How is De Jong stringing Chelsea along? There’s only one clubbing running to Spain after him and it’s not us.Something doesn't add up. De Jong 'wants' Chelsea, but Chelsea have yet to put in a formal bid because they are waiting for the player to give the green light?
If anything, it sounds like FDJ is stringing Chelsea along, just like Kounde. Who even went as far as agreeing the contract.
Deffered until such time as they can declare the whole deal illegal and therefore null and void. In fact Man City will have to pay them back the 50m.It's deferred, not a discount
No idea, its Barca, they do weird nonsense. I doubt Frenkie goes along with it though.How will they enforce that? It would have to be a gentleman's agreement
You forget City's entire setup is composed of Barca people?
It's not a transfer ban or point deduction though, it's not being able to register the players so it makes zero sense to keep signing more when they won't be playing.Would they just accept a transfer ban and a point deduction at this stage with the signings they have gotten if they can't break even?
I mean, transfer ban, point deduction, demotion, unable to register new players would cause a full on Spanish meltdown of epic proportions.
Is this now why they have claimed legallity issues with the contracts, so they can blag their way through LaLiga financial rules?
Really is baffling.
Agents using your name for their own agendas.How is De Jong stringing Chelsea along? There’s only one clubbing running to Spain after him and it’s not us.
At the very most, we are monitoring the situation but again, I don’t expect us to bid.
Yeah that 50 mill euros bid is absolute bollocks. Bernardo is worth nothing less than 80 mill. Hell if De jong is 80 he should be 100.You forget City's entire setup is composed of Barca people?
We are both waiting on De Jongs decision. We are both in the exact same position.How is De Jong stringing Chelsea along? There’s only one clubbing running to Spain after him and it’s not us.

We've had a bid accepted. But Chelsea have 3 tweets from Ben Jacobs saying he prefers London.We are both waiting on De Jongs decision. We are both in the exact same position.
Enjoy it. Snacks and refreshments are on your right and the bathroom is 3 doors down
Agreed and thats probably the exact reason we're not.Jamie Jackson on talkSPORT right now saying why aren’t Utd just going to West Ham and giving them whatever money it takes to get Declan Rice when it’s looking like you aren’t going to get your main target.
Sad thing is I actually think Rice would say no to us and wait for Chelsea next summer.
Here without you, Frenkie, but you're still with me in my dreams...We are both waiting on De Jongs decision. We are both in the exact same position.
Enjoy it. Snacks and refreshments are on your right and the bathroom is 3 doors down
Nevermind the fact Rice would cost about twice as much as FrenkieAgreed and thats probably the exact reason we're not.
Add to that the fact that maybe the manager doesn't want him.
Comments like this make me laugh, they lambast the club for not learning from previous mistakes and then implore them to go and sign the latest big money available player
All the football brass at Manchester City are hardcore Barsa people. They will do what they can to help them as long as it doesn't affect the interests of their Emirati owners. Including accepting less than true market value for Bernardo Silva. I bet you that if it had been Real Madrid that had wanted to buy the player, the amount would have been much, much higher.If they are signing Bernardo for 50m euro the world has gone absolutely bonkers. He’s world class. One of the best in his positions. That would be a ridiculous fee.
Frenkie's Barca career? Agreed.This is dead.
Yep, that too.Nevermind the fact Rice would cost about twice as much as Frenkie
Is he wrong?He's a miserable shit
That it's the worst transfer window we've had under the Glazers? YesIs he wrong?
We were 1 million percent wrongThat it's the worst transfer window we've had under the Glazers? Yes
That we were wrong for trying to sign Arnautovic? No
Doesn't stop him being a miserable shit though
Yes, I agree. That's why I said that he was correct in saying that we shouldn't have gone anywhere near him.We were 1 million percent wrong
